Dating is a scary thing. Putting yourself out there to be vulnerable and open with strangers is not the most fun or most comfortable thing in the world. It takes a lot to want to actually meet someone and actually want a connection with them. Dating doesn't always end up good, sometimes you meet some really strange people with sketchy motives. Online dating just makes the whole thing even more scary. You can't really know who someone is behind a screen, and behind a screen, people tend to be bolder with their conversations.
