Tips For Online Dating

Online Dating Positives

One of the most amazing things that modern technology has offered to the human race is the entire new way that it is possible to meet someone new. Yes, I am talking about online dating sites. In the hundreds of thousands of years that human beings have been meeting and interacting with each other, there has never been anything that approaches the reach, the utility, and the convenience of online dating.

Up until recently, you were limited to whoever was in your immediate vicinity and social circle. Now, you can meet and woo anyone in the world. The most amazing thing is that you can look through what they say about themselves and shortlist a bunch of people that you are interested in that also have some things in common with you. On top of this, most dating systems have searching algorithms that will help you find all those people in the first place. It is just so amazingly easy.



Online Dating Negatives

However, there are downsides to online dating too. Nothing is perfect. For example, the hot young woman you think you’ve been chatting up online could be a 500 pound rat-catcher from Arsspik, Siberia. Or vise versa. Men and women both tend to post younger and more flattering pictures of themselves before they gained 40 pounds, and had more hair. You just never really know if the person you are interacting with is telling the truth. If they lie about their looks, they may also be lying about their current relationship status. Lots of married men and women troll dating sites. Make sure that you have your guard up!

The bigger dating sites will actually have millions of profiles for you to search through, and that is a curse! Even with the computerised help, the task is daunting. How can you zero in better? Of course if you are like me you just need to search for "deaf, dumb, oversexed female who owns liquor store"!



Further Online Dating Considerations

A name like THREEINCHTOOL is unlikely to gain you much positive attention after all. Chose something that you can mention in mixed company, or better yet, to your minister. Second, don’t give away too much personal information all at once. Slowly let the other person get to know you, and vise-versa. It’s safer. Use a throw away cell phone to establish verbal correspondence with them before meeting them in person for the first time.

Put up a recent photo of yourself, with your baldhead and all. Do not make the mistake that many people make on a dating site and present yourself as being younger, or with more hair than you actually have. How will you get past the first in person date if you lie about who you are or what you look like? However, don’t make the profile picture too sexy. Keep in mind everyone on the dating site will be able to save anything you put up. Never complain about your current situation or your ex. Nobody likes to listen to a complainer. If pressed, admit to making a few mistakes and that you think you have learned from them. Also, make sure that you have more than one person that you are talking to at the same time. So many people stretch the truth in online dating that getting your hopes up on one specific person before you meet them is most likely to end in disappointment. So join several sites, preferably under different online names, and have 4 or 5 people on your active friends list at any one time. It is okay to date more than one person at a time until you are ready to commit. It is expected!

When you finally decide to meet in person, plan the time and venue of your first date carefully. Choose a day date, first off. That way if you don’t hit it off, you can leave and still have your evening free. If you cannot find a time during the day to meet, then meet early on in the evening, and come up with some sort of alarm so you can make excuses and leave. Set your phone to alarm about 30 minutes into the date so you can pretend to take an emergency call and leave if things are not working out. Do not be afraid to inform them that you are seeing other people. If you appear to commit too early, it sends out a bad vibe. On the other hand, make it look like you are not a Lothario.

If you are lucky she will show up in her nurse naughty outfit and you just know you have your soul mate. Good luck!
