Is Online Dating Actually Romantic?

"If I'm going in with a genuine intention, then there must be someone out there also going in with a genuine intention."

Online dating seems to be a great way to maximize your chances of meeting someone cool.

Or, better yet, learning that cutie from that one party is single.

It definitely requires a bit of optimism on both ends.

You'll hear success stories from your friends who met on OkCupid or Tinder and are still going strong.

And some of their relationships will feel insanely serendipitous, despite all starting from an app.

If you do meet someone online, you can still find humor and excitement in how you met.

You can also make friends with people or form non-romantic but still-meaningful bonds.

Basically, it can really depend on how you view the whole process of meeting someone through an app.

But whatever you may think, one thing's for certain: what a time to be alive.
