Searching through of millions of images to know more about the person you plan to date is a recent way of dating. A person (let us assume his name is John) browsed through some random sites where singles are listed and found a picture of the female who aroused his interest. He did an image search and found her on FB, LinkedIn and many other networking sites. He read all the information about her, got her address, phone number, where she works, what she likes, the places she most frequently visits and what are her interests. All this information he gathered about her by spending time to visit various sites where she is registered to know more and more about her. He finally called her and introduced himself. Told her all about herself from the information she had given on various social networking sites and asked her for a date. More than surprise it was beyond comprehension that this guy found out so many details about her life and called her to date her.

Alternative of Dating Sites Image Search?

Google has launched image search for people to find their relatives and friends across the world. This has made the world shrink further as one can easily find the person from one image. Image search has totally cut down the time barrier as most people are registered on some social networking site and pictures are tagged somewhere or the other. Though one has not met the person in ages, one usually has the image of the person in some stage of life. Let’s say school friends pictures can be matched with to find your friend today and reconnect with him/her.

Online dating sites do have an option to load images and videos as well. Most of the dating sites are popular because of the ease of navigation they offer. The simple registration process which is usually free, the number of singles registered on the sites with complete details available at the click of a mouse button. The search filters are effectively designed and monitored so that one can easily find the kind of person one is looking for. With the search criterion defined, the results are almost accurate almost every time.

With a simple registration process which is free, once registered the member can easily browse through the listing and view the pictures. One can find the person available to date within a specific distance from their own area. Free online chat options lets you know the person better which helps in deciding whether you want to meet in person or not. One can browse the free online dating sites from the comforts or office to find a companion for the evening or weekend. No need to go to single bars looking for him/her at the end of a tiring week to find a date. Most of the online dating sites are constructed to view on hand held devices as well which makes the access easier and any time available.

The convenience and security that the dating sites offer cannot be replaced by image search. Back to John, the female found something very eerie about the whole conversation she had with John. She probably assumed him to be a psycho or a guy who had all the time on Earth to find out so many details about her from multiple sites. No person in their right sense would be keen to date a person who wastes so much time to find details from various sites when a simple option of browsing the online dating site is available to know all the information about the person as well as chat with the person for free.

The concept John applied maybe good but the approach was probably not right as the information he had about her made her feel sick and vulnerable. Bad incidents do happen in online dating too which is quite rare. Image search dating may not be acceptable to the human psyche as it makes one vulnerable. It may take a while for this change to take effect as it is more dynamic way of finding a person. Online dating sites are the safest way still to find the person for the evening or a life time as peace of mind, safety and security are the top priority for any sane person.

The art of living is the culture there. India has multiple religions and religious beliefs. Most of the families live here as a joint family. There is a hierarchy that is strictly followed in all societies. Family values are very important. India is a patriarchal society where parents or the elders in the house decide who their child should marry. This aspect is drilled into the brain right from childhood that parents will choose their life partner as they are the best judge of what is best for the child. Yes, an adult in India remains a child and the parents keeps monitoring the daughter’s life till she gets married (after which her husband does) and the son’s life till they are alive. Marriages are thought to be for a life time and divorce is looked down upon. It is a social stigma which gets a bad name for the family and ill-repute to the girl who is always blamed for a broken marriage as she is the one who has the courage to walk out of the relationship.

Arranged marriage is a tradition in India though love marriages have become quite common in metros cities. There seems to be a slight change in attitude in bigger cities but not in the smaller cities as yet. A long distance relationship just does not fit into the psyche of the Indians. You fall in love with the one you marry. There is love after marriage and not love before marriage. This is one of the major psychological barriers which make it difficult to develop a long distance relationship with an Indian.
