Washington: A new study has revealed that couples who met online were more likely to break-up compared to offline, whether they were in marital or non-marital romantic relationships.
According to study, additional factors besides the meeting venue can help predict whether a couple will stay together or break up, according to the author; these may differ for marital versus non-marital relationships and include the quality and duration of the relationship.
Brenda K. Wiederhold said that the time-tested qualities of trust and intimacy still remain important factors on determining whether a couple stays together, regardless of whether they meet offline or online.
The study was published in Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking.
