I guess online dating is okay, as long as both people can accept the other. Some people use online dating to search for new friends from other cities, and I see that those people enjoy having long-distance relationships. Some friends that I know use some application to make a relationship and they do not have a problem.
as long as both have the desire to have partners and has the same looks for the attitude and character of each other, i think they will succeed and surely will stay togethe for long if not forever.
My friend who is married can live happily because before they meet, they want to marry and lived in one town and have kids. Yup, they made their dream becomes true. I as their friend always pray for the best for them.
Then i must say Congratulation to both of them as they deserve such love and affection .
