Online dating is getting more and more acceptance in the offline world, and with good reason; IT WORKS! Millions of people have already taken the plunge and either posted their profile or responded to an ad on Online dating sites. We have put together a few helpful hints about finding "the one" online. Below are ten tips to online dating:

  • 1) BE SAFE! You are in control of the dating experience, you decide who and when you will respond to. You can remain completely anonymous until you feel ready to meet that someone
  • 2) Set up an email address specifically for your online dating
  • 3) most emails sent to your personal email adress, that directs you to a different web site that demands money before you get to see the ad, is usually a scam. (mostly porn sites) The email will usually say that you have contacted them, but they are sorry they havent gotten back to you, even though you know you never contaced them.
  • 4) When striking up a conversation with a potential match, be sure to ask a lot of questions, not only does this show interest in the other person, but may also show you how compatible you are with the other person
  • 5) When meeting someone offline for the first time, be sure to meet in a public place, and let your friends and family know where you are going to be.
  • 6) When posting pictures, use recent ones to show who you are today...just as you would like to see recent pictures of your potential matches, to know who you may be making a contact with. 35 year old pictures are just as bad as using a picture that is not you.
  • 7) Be yourself. Let me amend that to be your BEST self. This is not the time to admit to all the vulnerabilities and insecurities that regularly beset you, nor to share the story of how the shock of catching your fiancé in bed with your brother landed you in a mental institution. Trot out the tried-and-true tales that showcase your sweet and sparkling personality.
  • 8)Good first dates are in public places, like coffeehouses, restaurants, movies, a walk in the park (not at midnight!), ice skating, live music concerts, etc..
  • 9) Online Dating should be enjoyable and fun, flirt away, and do not feel tied down to one person, unless you plan on something serious with this person
  • 10) HAVE FUN WITH IT!
