Facebook the place to find love for Brits

Social networking sites have long been a common arena for finding love, but did you know that one out of four Brits are, or have dated someone they met through social networking sites. Internet market research company OnePoll.com disclosed that over a third has got back in touch with an old flame through these sites and one out of 10 have had an affair with such a person. In Britain, the pub was the central meeting point for couples to get to know each other. But these days, singletons find their love through social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace.

Results also show that such sites are a medium for reviving the old flings and romances. A poll that quizzed 3000 Brits revealed that 46% think it’s easier to meet your love online than in real life. It’s hard not to agree with that since this is a common phenomenon, not just in Britain, but all over the world.
