If you've been online any amount of time then you know prevalent online dating sites are. Maybe you've even tried a few, with varying degrees of success. In this article I'll give you three basic tips that can dramatically improve your chances of success, whatever it is for you.
Before you even start looking, you'll need to know exactly what it is you are looking for. Short term fun? Long term commitment? Secret partner for a once in a while rendezvous? The beginnings of a traditional family with kids and a house? Whatever it is you are after, make sure you know what it is. You can't find what you're looking for if you don't know what it is.
Next is to determine exactly who you will be hooking up with. Be as clear and specific as possible, about as many things as possible. Come up with three basic categories: Must haves, like to haves, and can't haves. Go easy on the must haves and the can't have's, other wise you'll make it hard on yourself.
Next, you need to come up with a list of all your positive qualities. All of them. Be generous with yourself, but don't lie. Nothing will kill a face to face date quicker than somebody who obviously lied on their profile. There is enough people out there that you simply don't need to do this. Believe it or not, there really is somebody for everybody.
Now you're ready to start hunting. Contact as many people as you can that meet your minimum requirements. Online dating is numbers game more than anything else, so don't get hung up on one person too soon. Sort through as many as possible, and you'll find your match fairly quickly.
Once you get a good handle on these three steps, you'll be well on your way to finding Mr. or Mrs. Right. (Or Mr. or Mrs. right now, if that's what you're after!) The trick is to keep at it, and make it a daily habit. Before you know it you'll be falling asleep in somebody's arms. - 31368
