Alexander Ospina and wife Katalina Gomez, popularly known on social media as Alex and Kata, recently shared their thoughts on online dating in an interview made, unsurprisingly, via an Internet-based communication channel, the video chat app Skype.

The real-life Colombian couple has a large following - at least 1.6 million - on their Instagram account from their tandem, which mostly poked fun at stereotypes involving Colombians and Latino couples, according to Fox News Latino. As such, their thoughts on the matter of online dating, especially during love month, was deemed fitting for the occasion.

Alex said that although information about a potential date on a dating site profile may be limited and may only be about what the other person wants to reveal about herself, he believes he'd be likely to give it a try had he not met his spouse already.

Also, he thinks that he and Katalina will also likely meet each other online and that he'll probably like her profile a lot of times. They went on to mention a dating app that would cater to this approach to finding love.

Alex and Kata's foray into online dating apps is not surprising as this mode of finding potential life partners have had a boom in recent years.

Latinos have also jumped on the online dating bandwagon increasingly in the least couple of years. In 2013, The Huffington Post observed that dating sites have caught on pretty quickly, as these enable Latinos seeking fellow Latinos to reach out to other Latinos out there. It even enumerated a number of sites specifically catering to the Latino or Hispanic seeker. It also noted sites that enable users to narrow search to a specific demographic or race. The more reliable ones, however, come with a membership fee.

What makes this Internet-powered option viable is that, according to surveys, more and more couples have been able to find life partners through dating sites.

According to a Singles In America survey, as mentioned by Fox News Latino in another piece, 93 percent of those seeking love online are reportedly more likely to desire marriage. Also, based on the results of a 2013 study by the National Academy of Sciences (PNA), a third of the marriages in the United States began with online meetups, and were not as likely to end in divorce or even a separation.

This is good news for those looking to online dating as a beacon of hope, where romance and lifelong partnerships are concerned.

Will you give online dating a try? Or have you done so already?
