If you met someone on a dating site, don”t break up with them.
Researchers from the University of Chicago have debunked the claims of online dating opponents.
They found that couples formed online are less likely to break up.
The study is based on the results of a survey (ta-da!) conducted by one of the largest dating sites.
Match? A clever marketing ploy?
Now we”ll find out.
Breakup Vaccine
The study was conducted by eHarmony, one of the most famous and largest dating resources in the world.
The researchers analyzed over 19, 000 reviews.
They found that:
- 35% of respondents found their partner online;
- Only 45% used a professional dating site (the rest met online, but through other means).
John Cacioppo, one of the study”s authors, emphasizes that online daters are a group of affluent, mature, and educated people. In other words, those who prefer online dating are more likely to be wealthy and successful.
Another interesting fact: couples who met online divorce less often than couples who met traditionally (4% versus 8%).
The study”s authors believe that the only factors influencing marital success are education, wealth, and maturity.
The researchers believe it”s not that simple. However, due to the purity of the experiment, they decided to conduct the study on other dating sites.
Likewise, to the surprise of its audience, eHarmony proved successful, while other platforms fared much worse.
However, the results remained the same. Online dating truly is a powerful tool.

Another explanation
Dating apps and dating sites won”t cease to be entertainment and won”t become the last resort for desperate singles for a long time.
Dating resources are actually used by wealthy, educated and mature (including psychologically) people. For many, this is the only way to find their soulmate. Busy businessmen and businesswomen don”t have time for a leisurely walk in the park or staring at the bar.
Moreover, many studies show that dating apps are used not only by yesterday’s schoolchildren, but also by people “a little over 40.”
The success of online dating can also be explained by the fact that users have the opportunity to meet the maximum number of people per unit of time. The more “matches” (matches) you have, the more likely you are to find a suitable partner.
The more you communicate with people, the clearer it becomes about what kind of partner you are looking for and what kind of relationship you want.
When you get to day 10 (20), you”ll know you”ve found exactly what you need.
