ALL it takes is a friend request, Christian Mingle message or Tweet for some people to find long and lasting love on the Internet, even if they've only seen photos of their betrothed.
However, all that glitters is not gold, and the brewing romance online could easily turn into a predator-and-prey relationship if you're not careful.
Relationship counsellor Wayne Powell said Internet dating is a route many individuals take because of the freedom it allows them.
"The online dating service is usually the last resort for people who have been unsuccessful in making live connections or who have had a string of bad experiences. There is a certain intrigue with the online connection, partly because distance allows you to exercise your imagination and allow it to take you as far as you want to go," he said.
"There is safety in distance as well, as you won't have someone knocking at your door at 12 am or leaving at 4:00 am," Powell said.
But what many people fail to realise is that behind the computer or phone screen are many lies that may not come to light before the emotions get entangled.
"The risk of him already being in a committed relationship is always there. He or she may be a stalker, domestic violence abuser or a serial rapist. He or she may be much older or younger than you thought; have a life-threatening communicable disease, and you are a target or potential victim. He or she may also have a sinister plan to fleece you of money you inherited or earned," he warned. more
