Even though many people use Internet dating to find great relationships, there is still a risk associated with the practice. That risk may now be decreased slightly thanks to a new law signed by the governor of New Jersey this week. The law is designed to strengthen requirements for online dating sites in order to increase the safety of using those sites.

It's appropriately called the Internet Dating Safety Act and places certain requirements on dating companies. Those requirements include that they must disclose safety information to consumers such as what kind of background screening they do. The goal is to make users more aware of what is happening on the site so that they can make informed choices about dating others who use the site.

Of course, your safety is ultimately in your hands. Online dating can be a terrific way to meet people. You just need to use common sense in making sure that the meetings happen in a safe way.

Everywhere around me there seems to be a bevy of blokes bending down on one knee, uttering those four magic words, women shrilling the requisite "yes!" and elated mums prancing with glee at the fact their daughter is no longer resigned to the life of an old maid.
