Being Safe With Online Dating And 3 Tips To Do So
Online dating is very popular
Online dating is very popular. Nowadays you will find that 1 out of every 10 relationships were started online. And this is so for a few reasons. You don't have to approach anyone, all communications are done by email, you can come off as very confident, you let women get to know you first, and the fear of rejection is not a factor. All of these reasons make online dating a great choice for starting a new relationship.
But with this ease of use comes it's risks. Every year people are getting scammed by dates online. The one thing that you have to remember is that online dating is online - and when the internet is involved, you always face some risk of fraudulent activity. So in this article, we will take a look at some ways that you can remain safe online while still meeting the person for you. Let's take a look at safety tip number 1.
1) Don't list your email in your profile
I see this happen all the time. Someone will place their email address in their profile even when this is against the dating sites policy. This is the easiest way to get contacted by all the wrong women. Usually these women will be in a rush to meet you for whatever reason, and won't remain patient to get to know you better. Stay away from women like this.
You shouldn't list anything personal about yourself in your dating profile. Don't put your phone number, email, or even home address in your profile. This is the fastest way to put yourself at risk for meeting someone who is bad for you. Here's tip number 2.
2) Know more about the person you're talking to
If you can, learn as much as possible about the person that you're talking to. It will be in your best interest to wait at least 2 weeks until you give a woman your phone number. This will ensure that you're taking things slow and that you're giving the relationship proper time to grow.
A good way to find out more about a person is to ask them questions. Ask open-ended questions that probe deeper in the lives of a woman. You want to open her up to you and you as well want to be open with her.
3) Create a new email address
Don't use your primary email address as your dating site email address. This will stop alot of spam from coming your way. Sometimes these dating sites sell your information to third parties - so you will want to keep this in mind. Also, if you give your primary email address to a woman that you've just met, if things don't work out well - she could come back and sign up your email address to a spam database. All kinds of things can go wrong, so you will want to create a new email address at Yahoo, MSN, or Google to do so.
Keep these tips in mind when doing online dating. Good luck on your efforts.
