Canberra is full of interesting and appealing singles, it’s just that finding them can be difficult. Expanding your social circle to maximise introductions to other singles can be difficult when you are busy and many singles often shy away from initial face to face interactions, fearing rejection. It is no wonder that many singles are choosing to turn to online dating as a place that they can easily meet and interact with other single people without the trauma of face to face small talk. Indeed, singles often report that online dating helps them to minimise the stress associated with dating, they don’t have the fear of rejection as much, as being turned down online isn’t as painfully embarrassing as face to face rejection, and they also don’t have to find the time to get dressed up and go out, they can simply chat to people in their downtime. It seems that online dating can take the work out of finding a significant other.
One of the main advantages of online dating is that you can really get to know a person before you arrange to meet them. This not only makes that first date less daunting, as you already know each other quite well but it also minimises the role that the attractiveness of a person has in finding a new partner. Could you, for instance, imagine yourself taking the time to talk and get to know somebody in a bar if you had already decided you were not attracted to them? Whilst you might discount people online because their photo doesn’t appeal you won’t know if that spark of attraction is there until you meet, but at that point, it is more likely to be there anyway because you know a lot more about them. Plus, if the spark is really there you will have already established a relationship and can be sure that their good looks aren't swaying your judgement.
There are so many options for a first date in Canberra, you’ll be spoilt for choice once you start building up those online dating relationships. For art lovers, there is The National Gallery of Australia, home to the country’s largest collection of art. A wander around here, taking in the artwork should get the conversation flowing nicely. Questacon, The National Science and Technology Centre is another perfect location for a first date. Whilst you would be forgiven for thinking it sounds a bit boring the centre is actually home to a lot of fun, interactive displays that should serve to break the ice and help forge a bond. If nature is more your thing, you could consider trekking up to Mount Ainslie Lookout. You can reach the lookout by following a path through the Canberra National Park, it is worth the walk for the stunning views of the city once you reach the top. Take a picnic up there and spend some time together admiring the beauty, for added romance go up there in the evening and watch the sunset. If you fancy sticking with the traditional dinner date why not try Floresco in the Gardens set within the Australian National Botanic Gardens. If you really hit it off with your date then you can always go for a wander around the gardens afterwards.
