imo it's a numbers game regardless of whether you met online or irl. i think there's plusses and minuses of both. on one hand, you can learn a lot of things from a profile and evaluate your compatibility with those traits from online compared to just meeting girls, but on the other hand a lot of people exploit the anonymity of the internet and you have to wade through the bs of people who misrepresent themselves.
i'd say if you just establish a zero tolerance policy when it comes to looking like your pic and not disappointing someone when you meet up and then just keep aware of the degree of chemistry happening, you'll do fine with online dating.
chemistry and fireworks are rare enough to get either way though, so just keep up till you get what you want. and no, it's not wrong to NOT settle. settling would be a disservice and possible hurt someone you're with down the line.
