alfren Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Dating on the Internet If you are single and looking for someone, meeting people online can be very rewarding. Online dating web sites offer a flexible, exciting and secure environment for interacting and chatting with other single people online. These tips will help you interact online with other single people: Stay positive and pace yourself When chatting with someone, be positive and honest. Just like when you’re meeting people for the first time in "real life," it’s never a good idea to talk about negative subjects. Don’t overwhelm the person with too much information too soon.Pictures are powerful Providing a picture is an easy way to give possible dates an idea of who you are. Profiles that include photos get many more responses online. Never post a picture that isn’t you; if you meet someone in person, obvious problems will arise.Demonstrate why you're unique Round out your profile with interesting information that highlights your unique personality, background, interests and your qualities. Take your time Don’t feel pressured to meet the person face to face too fast. Take your time to get to know the person to help you feel confident to schedule a meeting. Since a woman may need a little more time to feel safe, men usually prefer to let women control the pace of the online relationship. If a man is interested in meeting a woman face-to-face, he can let the woman know; however, he should let her decide when. Meet someone Meet someone at a restaurant or in a public relaxing place. You will feel more confident and you won’t feel as pressured if the person does not meet your expectations. After you meet someone that you like, close the date with a positive attitude and say, "I had a really great time with you, thank you."
