Successful Online Dating

Featured

Everything is moving online. Even dating. Women want to meet you before they meet you. But how can you impress a woman with nothing but typing? How much will they trust is true? Is it really possible to meet someone real?

Before we talk specific sites, there are a few things that you can do that apply to all of them. First, if you want to make sure the woman you are talking to is really who she says she is, go to http://www.google.com/imghp. This is the Google search by image site that Nev uses on the Catfish television show. I don’t know why more people don’t use it. You can search by an image URL or download the woman’s picture and then upload it to Google search. The results may just show you that the image was taken from someone else’s social media page or another source. Or it may confirm their identity. That’s insurance against ending up wasting time with liars.

Speaking of liars… don’t lie in your profile. Some of these sites ask tons of questions and some ask none. But whatever you do, if you are really serious about finding dates, don’t lie. Be yourself. If you end up on a date, the real you has to show up, so you may as well start out on the right foot. Now, this does not mean you have to disclose everything about yourself. Just don’t lie.

A lot of women on dating sites are cautious. Asking them to Skype with you the first time you talk may scare them off. They have had their fair share of men showing them private parts on chatroulette instead of having a nice chat. Get to know a woman a little bit before you ask for a real life date or a Skype conversation. I met a woman who said that the first thing one guy said to her on speeddate.com was his penis size. Three more mentioned sex within the first minute. Sure, the chats are only about 5 minutes unless you pay for more time, but that’s like asking her if she’s a hooker. Moving on…

There’s a plethora of dating sites out there. Some are legit and some are really questionable. I checked out some of the sites that I’ve seen advertised and I’d like to share a little about what I’ve learned about them… and the people who use them.

All of the sites that offer free options don’t give you much. They will allow a profile to be made and maybe show you some matches, but there’s no communicating unless you pay. The sites for seriously looking for dates would be match.com and eharmony.com. The sketchier sites – and by that I mean the ones that I wouldn’t use seriously – are speeddate.com, twoo.com (unless you think that online games rating other matches is fun), and datehookup.com which allows all free forum communication – most of which is smut.

If you decide to try out a dating site, be prepared to pay for a membership if you expect any real results. And it will take time. Just like in real life. There is no magic scientific formula for finding the perfect woman. But if you just want to talk smut to her, you know what URL to use tonight.
