Delving into the world of online dating
After
An online friend was chatting about how she was chatting to four blokes she’d met on one app, so I decided to have a look and see what all the fuss was about. It took a bit of figuring out the whole swiping thing out, and odd to have to make judgments based on looks to start with. Soon I heard the ping of messages coming in, some seemed genuine, some less so. I won’t lie, it was flattering to have some attention and to have a little fun chatting away.
There are so many online dating sites, making it easy to connect with people you are likely to get on with – or even just finding people who are in the same part of the country as you are. Whether you’re looking for Merseyside dating, Buckinghamshire dating or a Norfolk dating site, you can find a site to suit your own needs. Maybe you are looking for single women in Watford or you’re looking for Devon dating opportunities – online dating is such a great way to open your horizons to meeting new people.
Tips for online dating
1| Pick a picture that shows the true you – if you’re not a glam, make-up kinda gal, don’t ile it on for the photo – it will only attract the wrong type of men for you.
2| Think about what you’re writing in your profile – asides from your photo, those tiny bio’s are what people will judge you on first. So think hard about what you’re saying about yourself and maybe get a friend to read it over too.
3| Message first – out with the old rules, if you see someone who catches your eye send them a friendly message to say hello!
4| Keep your options open – This is No Strings Dating – there’s no rule to say you can only chat to one person at a time – likewise the first meet up, it’s OK to have a few options on hand!
5| Stay safe – if you do arrange to meet up with someone, pick a public place and let someone know where you’re going.
