The dating world has changed drastically- It's no longer waiting for a call from that guy or girl you saw on your first date, taking 3 buses to get to the city for a date, or ringing the doorbell and walking your date to the car. Being together and being connected has become much easier with the progression of technology... so easy that it might be the reason people get in and out of relationships so readily nowadays. There are now hundreds of free and accessible online dating sites making the dating process much more simplified and convenient. However, people are taking advantage of these sites and many relationships formed through the virtual screen may be based on lies and false information. As the anthropologist Helen Fisher argues, "There's not a dating service on this planet that can do what the human brain can do in terms of finding the right person," In other words, meeting face to face is the most essential component when meeting someone new. I believe that the process of online dating creates a wall between two people, where there can never be full trust, instead of bringing them close.
Catfish: The TV Show is an American reality-based documentary television series airing on MTV about the truths and lies of online dating.
This is very interesting. I can't remember if it was from class or somewhere else, but I heard that some people don't care about whether or not they get dumped or leave their relationship, because they can always find someone else online. They can always have a "first date". Doing this can send lots of dopamine which will make them do it more and more. Unfortunately there are people who pretend to be someone who they are not. This is where catfishing comes in mine. This is not only illegal but it can seriously mess with someone's emotions when the real person finds out that they have been messaging a liar. This is what the TV show, Catfish, is about. They research the fraud and reveal who they truly are. Unfortunately, there's usually never a happy ending.
