In singles, dating & matchmaking websites love on the first sight is not possible. But love on the first click can happen. Around 4% fall in love with the first e-mail. But that is not the big love, it is more amorousness. Well, there is the click-momentum in the true sense of the word. How does that come? Is it the wording, a special phrase, a reaction on a single-announcement? Is it a phrase in the cyberchat? Suddenly You think "oh, what a pretty woman" (suggesting You are male looking for a pretty woman).

Romance via Network?

Yes, it is real. Even in a flirt-chatroom You can feel the "flirt-fever" though You cannot hear the voice and do not see the partner's face (except a webcam is installed - with a microphone). One question: Why to join a flirt-chat - only to stay at home?

One day the moment of truth will come. The more You look for a serious partnership, the more You will be honest from the beginning. Self-descriptions are subjective. You may draw the long bow, or it can be (mis)understood. Sitting face to face, already having exchanged many e-mails will reduce the risk of disappointment. But that is nothing new, it is the same mechanism like contacting real - in a bar, a coffeehouse, in the metro or bus. Maybe You felt love on the first sight. But the dreamboy or dreamgirl was shorn of all glamour when You find out that the big car is a rental and the slim model-waist is tied up in a corset.

Good bye love?

No! There can be happen so much - even via network, in a cyberchat or a penpal writing e-mails. We know that for falling in love You do not need a personal meeting.

The Indian princess Damajanti and prince Nala fell in love only by stories told about each other. There was, is and always will be love. Although the sociologist Niklas Luhmann said, love is a quite big improbability that can not be predicted.

Mail order brides can be an interesting service, but isn't that a little too cold. Brides from catalogue? Can You put them into trash when You are sick of it? Isn't a mail order bride like a toy? I think, singles seeking marrige should put in more than a phonecall or a fax.
