If you are new to online dating or seriously thinking about giving it a try, this guide to online dating may help you to
understand the finer nuances of online dating, and give you a greater chance of success. Although some of the points are
general in nature, some pertain more to the situation where you are looking for a date in your own local area.
Keep the following points in mind as you prepare to go online:
Create a screen name that is interesting. However, avoid using one that is too sexy or hints at marriage. A screen name that
includes your actual name should also be avoided. A screen name that is based on your looks may be most appealing to men.
You may be tempted to send e-mails to all the attractive people you see with your zip or postal code. If you are a little
patient you my find that some of them will contact you. If someone you fancy does not contact you, send them a short e-mail
and then wait for them to follow up.
In these very early stages, avoid answering any questions you would not answer on a first date. Don't tell your date anything
about your income or past relationships. It is also not a very good idea to tell the other person about how much you want to
get married (if this is indeed what you want to do).
Include more than one photograph. Men and women find the visual aspect much more attractive. If you post a number of photos,
you are giving the viewer a better idea about how you look and whether you are their type, before they meet you.
Don't communicate further with a person who refuses to send you photographs of themselves. If the person refuses, there has to
be a reason why. Maybe they have something to hide, maybe they have not been quite accurate with their details.
A person who only sends you their picture or their profile may not be worth responding with further. If the person doesn't
have the time to write you an e-mail, is it worth wasting more of your time on them.
Always wait at least 24 hours before you respond to your date's e-mail. If you respond too quickly, the date may get the
impression that you are too desperate or that you have too much free time. Be patient, take your time. If the interest in
you and your interest in them is genuine, the date will definitely come together.
Don't log on to your personal website or answer e-mails on a Friday or Saturday. You must give the impression that you are
not available, even if you are. Remember, be patient.
If there is no follow up or the person does not respond, stop e-mailing them. If the person is really interested in meeting
you, there is no doubt you will be contacted and asked out on a date.
Even when things seem to be going well online with a particular person, if a date hasn't come together after four to six
e-mails you need to think about where the relationship is going. Keep mentioning that you are going out with friends and
consider stopping all communication with them.
There is no need to keep your e-mails short. Sticking to three-line e-mails can seem strange to someone who sends you a
long e-mail. The opposite is also true. Understand what suits them and make sure they understand what you prefer.
