Exploring Online Romance

Jeremy — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 04:34:03 +0000

What are some of the qualities of the Internet that make it an attractive option for people searching for relationships?

Have you ever used the Internet as a way of meeting potential partners?

Is the use of on-line resources de-personalizing the search for relationships?

This week we will be discussing these questions and more as we explore the world of Online Romance!

Hope you can join us!
