Dating Tips
Maybe you have tried online dating before. Maybe it's your first time. Whatever your age or your experience there are some things you should know, to get the results you want.
1. Pick the right dating site
There are millions of dating sites to chose from. Some are free, some can cost a lot of money, and some are free, with the option to upgrade once you have found someone (Top US Dating is the third of these 3 categories).
Free dating sites are often never worth wasting time on. Because they are free nearly everyone will join them, and most people sign up, never intending to be really serious about finding a date. Free dating attracts scammers. Many people join just for fun. If you really want to find the perfect match don't bother with free sites.
Mega bucks dating sites can offer results. They attract serious daters, so you will probably find someone, but at a high cost. Many of the top pay-sites have ways to keep you dangling and squeeze as much money out of you as they can, before you get a chance to meet your ideal match.
Free to Join, Pay to Use sites are an ideal middle ground. It costs nothing to start your mate search, so you have nothing to lose if you don't happen to find a match. These sites vary in cost, and often when you join as a paid member you are subscribed to an automatic rebill once your term has expired, so remember to cancel your membership if you find a date, or want a break from searching.
2. Making it work
Make sure you create a profile that looks irresistible. Pick a good photo - clear, in good light, showing your face well and looking happy. Write a good profile. Don't be negative or shy. Don't talk your self down and don't under-sell yourself. A good idea is to get a friend to write it for you. Remember - if you are paying for the service, get your money's worth. Join when you know you have a few days and weeks to concentrate on your dating quest.
3. Use the dating site
A good dating site will have plenty of tools at your disposal. Make sure you use them all, and use them well. If you send out an ice-breaker (a bulk message to lots of other members) say something interesting, positive and enticing. Too many people just say "Hi. If you like the look of me get in touch" or sometimes even less. Better to say something like "Hi. I'm looking for a man who lives near me. I want to see my Mr Right first thing every morning and last thing every night. I'm 28 years old, into rock music and I love going to music festivals. If you are Mr Right then get right back to me. I'm the one you are looking for"
4. Be honest and sincere
Just be yourself, but don't tell him or her all your faults. Tell them about your good points first and foremost. You want to attract someone, but don't tell lies or make up things, because your first meeting will reveal the real you, and you don't want to start with excuses or explanations,
5 Get busy
Log on frequently, make lots of contacts. Get busy socializing online. Read all your replies and respond to those you think are worth it. Don't waste time on those who you'd never go out with, just thinking you're being nice. Let them down politely, and concentrate on the ones who matter. Making it work can result in a life-changing event. It's up to you. Success or failure is in your hands.
