The meaning of the word dating actually varies according to person, country and culture. In the general sense of the term it can be considered as a meeting between two individuals judging each other as a potential partner for the future at some public place. There are some norms and etiquettes so to speak that are expected to be followed when two people date each other for the first time. These ideas about what’s to be done and what’s not to be done on a first date vary from person to person. When two people meet each other for the first time it is called their first date.

Just judging by how the people see it there can be a broad division regarding dating. There’s the option of dating that is called blind dating. According to this idea the two people who meet each other see each other for the first time in their life. It brings a nice sense of mystery and adventure apart from a bit of nervousness that’s quite obvious on the part of the both. The term dating has had many senses and with the passage of time it has kept on changing and exploring new avenues to it.

But one thing that ...
... has always remained the same about it is the fact that on the very first date the situation has been and will remain a bit tensed. With the evolution and advancement of technology the whole idea of dating has gone through a massive change. Now-a-days with the availability of mobile phones and internet two people before coming to the point of dating each other either talk over the phone or keep in touch through the internet. This makes the situation a lot easier for both since both the persons have at least some idea about the person they are going to date.

With the great popularity and development of the social-networking sites on the internet the whole world has come a lot closer than before. There are numerous online dating sites as well that aim bringing people closer to one another. But like everything has its merits and demerits the idea of online dating has its negative points as well. The most commonly sorted out fact being that not all profiles and id s are genuine. Hence sharing personal information over the internet is not always a very good idea as anyone can cause any kind of harm to you.
