In the TED talk “No More Bad Dates” by Evan Marc Katz, he provides advice to those that want to find someone through an online dating site. He discusses his experience as an individual who used online dating as well as worked for JDate, which is an online dating site. Through his experiences, he essentially provides suggestions. He notes that the reason for failures through this method is that people in society want instant gratification and do not want to put effort into interactions. He encourages all users to follow the 2/2/2 rule, which he created and used himself. He said that all users should follow religiously the 2/2/2 rule in which a first date should arise after 2 emails on the site, 2 emails off the site, and 2 conservations on the phone. The variation does not really matter, but what matters is that there is some contact away from the online dating site, so that a relationship can nurture. The most important thing he said is that users in online dating sites move too fast. They do not take the time to get to know their prospective partners. However, with online dating is there a common ground since it provides building blocks for long-term relationships and even matches users with potential marriage
