Online Dating: Love Is Just a Click Away!

In the past, I've written about "How Black Women Can Woo Black Men in Phoenix" and the "Top 5 Places to Find Black Professional Men in Phoenix."

Those blog entries have been extremely popular, but I'm about to blow the doors off the hinges when comes to meeting potential love interests in the Phoenix area!

Do you wanna know the quickest and easiest way for black people to find mates in the Valley of the Sun? Maaaan, this is so simple and I can't believe I haven't mentioned this in the past!

I see you sittin' on the edge of your chairs! Many of you have probably experimented with this method of finding dates in Phoenix.

So, what am I talking about?

 

ONLINE DATING!!

 

Somebody please make me understand why Online Dating seems to be such a dirty, little secret in America?

A few years ago, my wife and I went out to dinner with a couple who met on the Internet. They had been together for quite some time and when we asked them how they met ... they tried to stall us and fumbled over their words for a few minutes!

"Errrr uhh, see uhhhh, what had happened was, ooooh uhhh have you tried the baked beans yet? ..."

It was clear that they were embarrassed about having to admit the truth.

However, they finally 'fessed up and my wife and I thought it was cool! Their story was romantic, it was obvious that they were truly happy with each other and that's all that mattered to us!

C'mon y'all, it's the 21st century! The Internet is probably the main tool that connects us all!

We are well aware of the many reasons why businesses and individuals utilize the Information Superhighway, so why do people think it's so taboo to use the World Wide Web to find love?

I remember meeting a few women back in the day online. BlackPlanet.com was my second home in 2001! I had a few good dates and a few bad ones. Usually the bad dates happened with the women who didn't put their photos on their pages.

Oh I remember their excuses for not puttin' any pics on their profiles ...

"Oh I swear I look good, I just don't put my pic on my page cuz I need to protect my privacy!"

"Oh uhhh, I want a man to value me for my mind, not my face!"

Like a sucka, I took the bait and when I actually met them in person, they looked like Rerun from "What's Happenin' Now!"

Bottom line, Online Dating is the most practical way to meet people, especially in a metropolis that is as spread out as the Valley of the Sun!

With Online Dating, you can select which person is perfect for you based on looks, age, physique, profession, smoking habits, drinking habits, religion and the number of kids they have! The fun part is ... you never actually have to meet the person! You can make your choices from the comforts of your own home (or office)!

If you don't like what you see, you can quickly click on the next profile or visit a new dating Website instead of having to waste two or three hours on a boring, blind date! Don't get me started on the blind dates! I already told y'all about one of my nightmarish stories!

There are millions of people who use the Web to find their soulmates!

To those people who haven't given online dating a try, I have one thing to say ... "Get With the Times!"
