The opening sections of Love in the Time of Cyberspace, a memoir, recount an affair the author had at the age of fifteen with a much older woman he met via the internet. What follows is a sort of coming-of-age tale centered around the author's connection to the internet as a social outlet and the rotating cast of women it brings into his life: an heiress to Wyoming oil money; a mousey bookworm who may be too nice for her own good; a troubled, born-again Christian struggling to keep her faith while battling demons from her past. As he becomes obsessed with the idea of meaning something to somebody---anybody---the author ultimately realizes that he must first mean something to himself. Along the way, there are some surprising discoveries, not only about the narrator and the objects of his affection, but about the way technologies have changed how we as a culture socialize---and especially the way we love.

We yearn to experience the idealized love in so many novels, movies, poems, and popular songs. Ironically, it is the idealization of love that arms it with its destructive power. Popular media consistently remind us that love is all we need, but statistics concerning the rate of depression and suicides after divorce or romantic break up remind us what might happen if "all that we need" is taken away. This book is about our ideals of love, our experiences of love, the actual disparity between the two, and the manners of coping with this disparity.L A major study case of the book concerns men who have murdered their wives or partners allegedly "out of love." It is estimated that over 30% of all female murder victims in the United States die at the hands of former or present spouses or boyfriends. How can murdering a loved one be associated with the assumed moral and altruistic love? Not only is love intrinsically ambivalent, but it can also give rise to dangerous consequences. Some of the worst evils have been committed in the name of love.L A unique collaboration between a leading philosopher in the field of emotions and a social scientist, In the Name of Love presents fascinating insights into romantic love and it's future in modern society.

Susan Alpert has spent the last decade bringing help and a vital message to audiences ....preparing for, and handling loss. Although this is a foundation for facing the future for people of all ages, seniors are particularly vulnerable to these scenarios.The natural question to follow for this growing population is "What happens next?" The answer, although often slowly coming is "There's more life still waiting for you." As a single senior there may come a time when you crave companionship, activity, a partner. Finding that next chapter in the 21st century has created the need for older people to connect through social media. It's not only acceptable, it's almost a necessity.The number of online dating sites for the 'mature adult' has exploded. When a match is made, that otherwise might not have happened, life opens up again. You find excitement, adventure, vitality, aliveness and even love. That is what happened to Susan. Meeting Stephen Morse began a new phase in both their lives. They decided to share their story by writing a 'he said', she said' autobiographical book, chronicling how it started, what it encompassed and where it went. There's a lesson here for not only seniors, but for others to glimpse into the mind of elders, their needs, hopes and behaviors. So, you think adults in their 70s aren't computer-savvy? Do you believe the myth that we're too old for online dating, and that new love is impossible or unnecessary after a "certain age"? Do you assume that seniors are complacent and have no adventure left in us, that our recliners and TVs are enough to keep us happy, that we have given up on starting over? Think again. This is the true story of Susan and Stephen, two strangers from opposite ends of the country who met online fell in love over email and came together for romance and adventure. Join us for the twists and turns, and ups and downs, and most importantly, for the reminder that one is never too old for a new love.

“If online dating can blunt the emotional pain of separation, if adults can afford to be increasingly demanding about what they want from a relationship, the effect of online dating seems positive. But what if it’s also the case that the prospect of finding an ever more compatible mate with the click of a mouse means a future of relationship instability, a paradox of choice that keeps us chasing the illusive bunny around the dating track?” It’s the mother of all search problems: how to find a spouse, a mate, a date. The escalating marriage age and declining marriage rate mean we’re spending a greater portion of our lives unattached, searching for love well into our thirties and forties. It’s no wonder that a third of America’s 90 million singles are turning to dating Web sites. Once considered the realm of the lonely and desperate, sites like eHarmony, Match, OkCupid, and Plenty of Fish have been embraced by pretty much every demographic. Thanks to the increasingly efficient algorithms that power these sites, dating has been transformed from a daunting transaction based on scarcity to one in which the possibilities are almost endless. Now anyone—young, old, straight, gay, and even married—can search for exactly what they want, connect with more people, and get more information about those people than ever before. As journalist Dan Slater shows, online dating is changing society in more profound ways than we imagine. He explores how these new technologies, by altering our perception of what’s possible, are reconditioning our feelings about commitment and challenging the traditional paradigm of adult life. Like the sexual revolution of the 1960s and ’70s, the digital revolution is forcing us to ask new questions about what constitutes “normal”: Why should we settle for someone who falls short of our expectations if there are thousands of other options just a click away? Can commitment thrive in a world of unlimited choice? Can chemistry really be quantified by math geeks? As one of Slater’s subjects wonders, “What’s the etiquette here?” Blending history, psychology, and interviews with site creators and users, Slater takes readers behind the scenes of a fascinating business. Dating sites capitalize on our quest for love, but how do their creators’ ideas about profits, morality, and the nature of desire shape the virtual worlds they’ve created for us? Should we trust an industry whose revenue model benefits from our avoiding monogamy? Documenting the untold story of the online-dating industry’s rise from ignominy to ubiquity—beginning with its early days as “computer dating” at Harvard in 1965—Slater offers a lively, entertaining, and thought provoking account of how we have, for better and worse, embraced technology in the most intimate aspect of our lives.

Computers have changed not just the way we work but the way we love. Falling in and out of love, flirting, cheating, even having sex online have all become part of the modern way of living and loving. Yet we know very little about these new types of relationship. How is an online affair where the two people involved may never see or meet each other different from an affair in the real world? Is online sex still cheating on your partner? Why do people tell complete strangers their most intimate secrets? What are the rules of engagement? Will online affairs change the monogamous nature of romantic relationships? These are just some of the questions Professor Aaron Ben Ze'ev, distinguished writer and academic, addresses in this book, a full-length study of love online. Accessible, shocking, entertaining, enlightening, this book will change the way you look at cyberspace and love forever.

Internet dating expert Teresa Mannix writes about her romantic adventures as she crosses the world to link up with five men she met virtually, on singles sites, and who courted her via e-mail. Partly a "how to" book for girls and guys on cyber mating and dating and partly a personal account of a daring adventure, "Virtually Yours" is easy to pick up but hard to put down. Written in a fast-paced witty style, it's funny, shocking and moving all at the same time.
