Hello i been thinking about the impact of covid l-19 on the dating scene recently..cox pandemic or not people can still end up meeting someone special.Yet with so many various restriction in your own countries ect...just how would you cope if you did actually meet someone that you actually feel attracted too?They maybe online or soneone you know/met in real life..Would you decide to hold back hoping your feelings of attraction would somehow disappear?Or would you just go for it and use technology like video calls,texting,phone calls till to build the relationship till you're allowed to meet face to face...in some cases socially distanced..Plus if the other person is living abroad would you fly out to meet them?(again socially distanced)..or just stick to using technology as mentioned above.
Personally i would do whatever i would be permitted to do in terms of restrictions to make things work..technology..ie video calls ect..and would find a way to meet face to face when possible pending on the guidelines.
So how would you cope with having met someone new in the current pandemic?
If you can met them outdoors but socially distanced..you can't hold hands or even hug?..Be nice to hear your thoughts

I know dating online is for some people and maybe not for others like mee....lol. I just don't trust the process even during the pandemic (which I am hoping and praying will come to an end soon (by faith) ;)). It is so easy now to steal other people's photos and claim to be someone you aren't. So much scamming. Also it doesn't feel as organic as meeting someone for the first time in person because since it is an online dating service the expectation of knowing you are going to meet new people is already there...therefore taking away the spontaneity. Also I have tried various dating apps and it can be pricey (which I never did fork out the money for lol). Especially apps like match.com, but again I am not putting down online dating during a pandemic. I guess what I am just trying to say is..... "how I would I go about dating someone new during the pandemic.?...well....I wouldn't" LOL.:LOL:

I've met some interesting women through the internet. But I have had the best relationships and friendships with women that I met in person first. The current global "situation" is a major impediment to social and dating habits right now.

I really admire that honestly 🙂. To have a friendship with someone first. Hopefully I won't lose my dating social habits after this winds down around the globe 🙈 lol.

It depends. I don't use dating sites for that reason. Too much meat market.
If however I meet an amazing woman through an online game I play, I'll give her a chance. we have shared hobbies then at least.

Skype and phone calls. A wonderful way to take the time and build a solid foundation of friendship. ;)

Usually you can tell someone's age by looking at their face, it's a good indicator of age most times.

If you want to be more scientific, you can always try carbon dating. :)
