Topic5 Is Online Dating Really That Evil?
For most of us, finding love on the internet can be a gift from heaven.
For others, however, it can be a life-ruining decision – leaving us penniless, heartbroken and with many more problems heading our way.
A well-off Miss Chen from Shanghai is reported to have paid a leading online dating website hundreds of thousands of yuan worth of commission fee only to find out that the dates the website has arranged for her are all divorcees she feels impossible to accept.
The website defends itself in saying that there is no way these divorcee dates are not up to her standards just because they are divorced.
