It kind of makes me worried about the future of dating in general. Am I ever going to find myself on one of those sites? I really hope not. But who knows 10 years into the future?

Social Media: A Modern Love Story
While looking for a social media video to post, I stumbled upon a variety of gems that were decidedly too inappropriate to seriously post. One of these is a youtube video titled "a social network for two a modern love song":
While this video is hysterical, it's also a commentary on our society and how the modern world is finding love. Things like friend requesting and lying about your age is funny to laugh about in this video but things like this happen on a regular basis. Sites like eHarmony and Match.com are more popular than ever and it's almost replacing dating in real life. While I grew up in the world of social media, it still blows my mind that people go online to find their love matches. The concept to me is completely unreal and kind of ridiculous, but the television commercials prove it, people actually end up getting married to strangers that they meet through their computer.
