partners but friends as well. You can meet the people you want, also
partners with similar interests and searching for like-minded people
is easy, as this is one of the options available virtually on all
sites. You can also meet people internationally and nationally, not
limiting yourself locally. Many sites offer services that include
instant messaging, flirting, photo exchange etc. The disadvantages are
few, the first being that you cant see the person you are emailing or
chatting. It is also easy to pretend to be someone else since the
identity is not verified. Besides being time consuming as well, use of
some sites have a stipulated fee every year/quarterly and the ones
that are free are not too great. And if you are a female you can
expect a deluge of emails and if you are a guy you can expect to
compete for the hot babes.
