Our obsession with technology has inevitably changed the pattern of dating in
the 21st century and produced a new format for modern day romance.

connected and our entire stream of self-consciousness is displayed for all to
see online.
This documentary will be looking at whether Internet dating should be
embraced or approached with caution.
Online dating had been considered to be a desperate move in direction, but
now? Its one of the most popular ways for people to find a companion. This is

of their social circle, giving them the chance to meet and see new people.
They have the opportunity to decide what type of people they would like to
meet according to their own preferences. This is because of the availability of
particular sites that fulfill the needs of certain fetishes, for example, cultures

whereas others believe that it is helpful for them to be able to find someone
compatible to them who share the similar values.

right one, this makes it difficult for some people to be able to find someone
that they feel fully satisfies their needs. Still, finding compatibility may not be
an easy process and may cause an individual to overlook potentially good
partners in the process due to picking and choosing their ideal companion.
