subject: Successful Online Dating - Some Tips For The Man [print this page] Online dating has quickly become the avenue of choice for young, professional men and women to meet potential significant others. However, it seems some women are quite terrified of meeting men that they have been chatting with online. They have undoubtedly heard of all of the scary and violent things that can happen, and they have every right to be cautious. That's not only wise but very vital to their physical and mental safety. So what do you do if you are a nice guy? How to get around this stereotype? You definitely aren't a sexual predator, pervert, or weirdo. You're just a great guy looking for a nice girl to spend some time and share life with.
First, you need to be patient and take it slow. Don't immediately press her for personal information like her real name and address. You should try to keep your conversations light and fun until she gets more comfortable talking with you online. Don't try to rush her into an actual face-to-face meeting, either. This may lead her to believe that you are desperate or some kind of weirdo looking to harm her. Patience is key in the online dating world, and it's proper etiquette.
You have to be totally honest about things like your appearance, age, and financial situation. The same rules that apply in traditional dating apply online. A good relationship never has, and never will be, built on lies and deceptions. She will eventually find out the truth about you. Especially in this day and age of online background checks and electronic imprints.
A picture is still a worth a thousand words. You should post a lot of pictures of yourself in different poses and doing different activities. Make sure they are full body shots and not just cropped head shots. If you were dating her in the traditional sense, she wouldn't just see you from the neck up.
Once you both decide that you are comfortable meeting in "real life", there are several precautions that should be taken to ensure that she's comfortable. Meet during daylight hours and suggest that she bring a friend with her. You have nothing to hide, and you want to reassure her of that. By now she should know a lot about your background and appearance. The rational next step is obviously a face-to-face meeting. If you follow these simple tips and guidelines, you'll be on your way to a successful online relationship!
