By Laura Kelly


Through history human beings have always come together as couples. Different traditions had different ways of finding wives for themselves or their children. Kings and princes were known to hold parades where they would chose wives. In some cultures, women would fight to compete for a husband. In some cultures, the family and in most cases the parents were tasked with finding a wife for their sons. This was usually carried out through a sequence of competitions like traditional dances. Here are general facts on online dating websites for Muslims.

Women are forbidden from looking for husbands as dictated by most religions around the world. Society finds offence in a woman asking a man out as it expects the opposite to be happening. Religion practiced in India demands that a woman lists down the qualities of a man they would be interested in. The list is then handed over to their parents who in turn have to find a man with those qualities for their daughter. Once potential husbands have been identified their pictures are taken to the girl to choose the would be husband.

Currently with advancement of technology and introduction of the westernization culture things have really changed. Women can now choose their own husbands. They can also date men before marrying them unlike before where they had to get married to total strangers. They can also ask men out if they feel attracted to them.

Nowadays parents do not have the influence over marriage and dating like before. Absence of their involvement in these arrangements could be the source of the problems seen. Cases of relationships not ending in marriage are rampant. Lack of involvement of parents means that the parties involved do not respect each other enough. This is what contributes to suicide, depression, divorce, heartbreaks and relationships not ending up in marriage.

Advancement in technology has led to online dating. This is a platform for both men and women to meet online and interact to develop a relationship that could lead to marriage. An online dating platform is like a chat room with people from different backgrounds and ages among other qualities, all looking for a dating partner or a lifetime partner.

This sites have really increased in numbers and studies indicate that over forty million people have registered in the recent years. People have different reasons for adopting this kind of dating, some of these reasons include they are simply shy. Many people have low self-esteem maybe due to their appearance are afraid to go out and meet people in person. So they start doing it online before gaining courage to finally meet up with the other person.

This platform has also been adopted as a way of stress relief where people feel good talking to other people they know absolutely nothing about their life or whereabouts. They always seek help and advice from the other person. This has enabled such people to find life partners and even help those thinking of suicide not to do so.

Other than that online dating can be very dangerous since people may tend to trust the people they talk to who may turn out to be murderers or rapists. It is also dangerous meeting with these people for the first time. So one should make sure they meet at a public place.
