Meeting a Romantic Partner on the Internet

I think the meeting a romantic partner on the internet that has a lot of advantages.  Through the internet we can find more people, we get more choices. According to the textbook, “whereas the online encounter favored those who were verbally adept at self-presentation and did not disadvantage less attractive individuals” (DeVito 233). In my opinion, if people like this way, they will choose it to find a partner. I think this way will not affect the attractive to each other.
When people comes the internet, they all have interesting to find a good romantic partner through the internet. Some people may think we can find romantic partner through the work places or some other place, but these are limit places and time. Every day we work together with somebody, and when we work together we just focus with our jobs. So we do not have more chances to know more about our partner, and we do not have much time to talk with each other. Through the internet we can have more time to focus with the people. We are free to talk with each other. According to the textbook, “women, it seems, are more likely to form relationships on the internet than men. About 72 percent of women and 55 percent of men had formed personal relationships online” (DeVito 233). We know this is a big number, so we can use the internet to find partner.
