Poll: Have you tried online dating?

Your daily bite-sized ballot break.

WITH THE BRITISH version of First Dates back on our screens and the second Irish season of the show a popular hit, blind dating is on our minds.

Online dating isn’t quite ‘blind’ but you don’t quite know what you get until you meet the person … in person. It’s both a scary and exciting world out there for singletons.

So have you ever tried online dating (we’re thinking Plenty of Fish, Tinder etc.)?

Poll Results:

No (6377)

Yes, in the past (3937)

Yes, and I still do (2030)

Yes, and I still do
