As I was on Youtube watching a YouTuber travel to different colleges and ask the students’ about their experience, the side of my youtube page showed an interesting video on an interviewer named Gab asking people how they thought social media affected dating. I was so intrigued throughout the whole video because of how contradicting a lot of people were. For starters, when asked how social media has affected dating, more than half said positive things, but then when asked if they would ever date anyone they’ve met through social media, the same people who said positive things about social media said they would never date anyone from it. I am not sure exactly how that works though or how someone could have such contradicting things to say. The thing about this video is that only females were asked the questions. No men gave their answers. So I am curious to know how the answers of men would have lined up with the answers the ladies gave.
As for me I would have to agree with the minority and say social media has affecting dating in a bad way. Yes, it does give people a greater pool to choose from, but it also opens doors for havoc like trust issues, cheating, having “too many options”, publicity of the relationship, and etc. Not to mention, sometimes it can be dangerous. How do you guys feel about though? Do you think guys would have different opinions or if you are a guy, what do you think?
