Researchers from Michigan State University surveyed 2,923 U.S. couples. Of those who met online, 32% were married, compared to 67% of those who met in person.
Surveyed again two years later, 8% of the married couples who met online had separated or divorced, compared to 2% of the couples who met elsewhere.
The unwed couples who met online were also more likely to have split up (32% compared to 23%).
The study's authors offer a possible explanation for the findings.
They argue online dating provides individuals with too many options, so they find it difficult to commit to one dating partner.

This is further proof that online dating is a complete waste of time!
