The vicious circle of finding your ultra-perfect partner

Yes, a new semester! Of course this means exciting new courses. During one of them, I learned that love relationships via the internet are a vicious circle. How? I will explain.

The first step is finding a suitable partner. There is an infinite amount of ways to find your perfect partner using so-called “dating sites”. On these sites, you can search for someone who suites to all of your personal desires, brown or blond hair, green or blue eyes, smoker or non-smoker, casual or retro clothing. And if this is not enough, you can filter your search even more by choosing education level, and if you do not want to hook up with a dwarf, choosing height is also a possibility. Oh, while we’re at it, the least we can do is tightening our packet of even further. It would be a pity to hook up with a construction worker instead of a doctor. Even when you have found the “perfect” partner, you can sign in for a new dating site, this time for people with a perfect partner. 

Did you find the right partner on this site to talk about relationships? Now you can chat and exchange your pictures with your new “perfect” partner. After more and more chatting, Facebooking, twittering and exchanging other information, intimacy will grow. The more they interact, the more they will realize that their current partner is less perfect than their newly found one. Of course, such an “ultra-perfect” couple will arrange a date. After a wild night together they decide to continue with each other because who does not want the ultra-perfect partner? But then after a short while, when both of them are getting bored, they break up their relation using a Tweet on Twitter. Now they have arrived at the “I’m a bachelor phase”. And for people who have arrived at that phase, numerous internet sites exist on which they can show their ubercool I’msohappywithoutapartner-life to the rest of the world. And when their inspiration for Tweets about the bachelorlife has dried out, of course that life has to be changed. How to do that? You guessed it, datingsites!
