How Men Can Date Online successfully

April 12th, 2009

Many have taken to online dating like ducks take to water because it works or, at least, it can work. Women are, in general, terrified of meeting a man that they have been chatting with online.

They have all heard the frightening things that can happen and, I must say that they have the right to be wary. That’s not only wise but vital. So what’s a nice guy supposed to do? You aren’t a pervert, a sexual predator, or a crazy. You are just a nice guy looking for the right girl for you.

You must be patient. Do not|Don’t| press her for personal information like her real name or where she lives. Keep your conversations light and fun until she feels comfortable talking with you online. Don’t attempt to rush her into meeting you face-to-face. She will think you are desperate or a pervert. Patience. Patience. Patience.

Be absolutely honest about your physical appearance and job. A good relationship has never been, and will never be, built on lies and deceit. Eventually she will find out the truth anyway and then there you are back at square one.

They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. So an idea could be to post a few pictures of yourself doing your everyday activities and make them full body (clothed, not rude), not just of your head. After all. if you were dating a girl in the real world she wouldn’t just see your head, would she?

Once the discussion has been opened about meeting face-to-face for the first time, suggest that you meet in a very public place, during daylight hours and that she bring a friend with her.

After all, you have nothing to lose, have you? And everything to gain. You’ve told her the truth about yourself and she has already seen a lot of pictures of you. So, the only thing left to do is to is make her feel safe meeting you.

    “Be absolutely honest about your physical appearance and job. A good relationship has never been, and will never be, built on lies and deceit. Eventually she will find out the truth anyway and then there you are back at square one.”

    I cannot agree more. Having been in the dating business for years, most men are afraid to put pictures of who they are today and post pictures of who they were. Women will respect you more if you are honest about who you are even if you are over weight or lost hair.
