So you\'re on your way to a date, and you couldn\'t help but repeat that scene over and over in your head, like a video reel on loop:

He says: Hey there!
You say: Hi there!
He says: I really find you interesting.
You say: Really? Cool. I do find you interesting too.
He says: Really? Great!
He says: Why don\'t we go on a date?
You say: That will be great!
He says: See you at 7PM, then.
You say: Sure, see you later at 7!

You might be thinking that it happened somewhere in school, in a crowded corridor. You were just starting to shove your books back in the locker room, when you suddenly feel someone stand beside you. You ignore it, and still proceed to arrange your things inside your locker. You finally turn to that person, only to find out that it\'s none other than your crush, approaching you.

However, it didn\'t happen in a crowded corridor, in a park, in a school, or outside your house, for that matter. You were just sitting in front of your desktop, checking out email and chatting with friends, when a window popped out. He indeed is your crush, and you happened to meet each other through your social networking website. It turns out that he\'s the neighbor of a cousin of a friend of your Biology classmate.

Eventually you started sending messages to each other, exchanging sweet nothings, tidbits about your personal lives, and just plain conversations between two people. Who would have known that he\'s end up asking you out? Later on you\'ll be setting up your webcamera at 7PM so that you can see the person whom you\'re talking to. Who knows, maybe you\'ll end up talking in a restaurant in person soon!

Welcome to the world of online dating. Online dating started out as a cyberspace phenomenon when the internet became really popular, but now has gained normalcy status in today\'s fast-paced lifestyle. Now, a lot of people conduct online dating, as it is really easy. After all, with a few mouse clicks, you might end up talking with a potential life partner.

So, what do people do when they do online dating? Usually it starts with talking, trying to get to know the person, and stuff. Most people get to talk to chatting via instant messengers, while others prefer sending emails to each other. Then, if you\'re really interested, both of you can try and hook up a meeting at a particular place - maybe eat dinner in a restaurant, watch a movie, or do something that will both be an interest for the two of you.

Some online dating success stories involve people from two continents eventually falling in love, getting engaged, and eventually end up marrying each other; all through the help of the internet. Imagine two people from say, Asia and Europe, eventually getting together all because of cyberspace. What an interesting love story, right? You can have yours, too, through online dating. Why not make an online dating love story of your own, too?
