Real Romance: A Guide To Transforming An Online Romance Into An Offline Reality

Okay, so you’ve finally managed to ask that amazing person out (through e-mail of course) that you’ve met thru online dating but are you ready for a possibly real relationship in the real world?

Well, for starters, don’t even think that just because online dating services have somewhat made the whole dating scene a “little less complicated”, it doesn’t automatically mean that they’ve been able to make things any easier. Sure, online dating services have been able to make the whole “meet and greet” process “quick and simple” but that’s where online dating ends and real life dating begins.

There are many online dating sites on the internet that are not just offering their free online dating services and some “valuable” tips on how to get things going in the “real world” may actually help you a bit but in order for you to survive the real world dating scene, you must have realistic expectations.

While you must be open minded about the whole adult online dating scene, you must not be naïve to believe in everything that you read/see on other people’s profiles. Again, while not everyone are coming up with false claims about themselves, its better be safe than sorry.

Sometimes it’s actually wiser to just meet up with the person that you’ve met thru online dating after interacting online for just awhile. While this will give you some time to actually get to know your new “friend”, this short span of time will at least give you a hint if this person that you’ve met through online dating is really someone whom you’d like to date outside the online dating arena. Try to interact on a more “personal basis” aside from exchanging e-mails or online instant messages, why not try to communicate the “old fashioned way” by calling each other up? Sometimes you can also get a better feel of a person’s personality by the way they carry themselves while they speak. There are some people who tend to have a weird laugh, even a creepy one, so can are you still willing to date someone like that? It’s best to a least get over some of the minor glitches that comes with online dating before you end up wasting your time with the wrong person.

As for finally going out on your date with someone you’ve met from these free online dating service sites, it’s best to keep things casual at first. Don’t try to rush intimacy because it might just blow back to your face. Try to get to know more of the person you’ve met through online dating just a little deeper before you decide on “taking the plunge” because you never can be too careful with strangers. Some might actually turn out to be psychos, married people or sexual predators even. It’s always best to not let your guard down even if the person you’ve met through online dating “seems nice”.

Once you’re already sitting across your date from the online world. You must remember some simple rules when trying to engage in some “witty conversation”:

Never ask overtly sexual questions nor make sexual innuendoes: men usually commit this mistake when they meet someone that they’re really physically attracted to. While there are those who to quick test the waters and are seeking to easily get lucky. Women sometimes makes the same mistake and basically for the same reasons as men but the point is, even though these people have put themselves out in the online dating scene, they are not offering free sex to just about anyone that they meet.

Never interrogate your date: while it’s good that you’re very much interested in your date and would want to get to know him or her on a deeper level, it is never safe to assume that you can ask your date just about anything that pops in your head. This can just make your date feel every uncomfortable and uneasy – how would you feel if you been made to feel like you’re under a microscope being scrutinized?

Be open minded: always remember that you’re two different people. No matter how much you have in common, you still have your own thoughts and ideas and while you or your date may not always agree on some things it’s best not to bee too biased or judgmental over other people’s opinions.

BONUS : Reasons For Trying A Online Dating Service

Tired of the same old people at the same old places? Or worse, tired of the lack of any people anywhere? Do you think if you hear Aunt Jane say one more time that she has someone she wants to introduce you to you’ll scream? Are you ready to catch the greatest singles’ wave since the introduction of the happy hour?

Then you’re ready to try an online dating service. And there’s never been a better time than now.

Sign up with a membership at an online dating service and be ready for the time of your life. Ah, all those wonderful possibilities! Why, you had no idea that there were so many people in your area who were looking for romance! And such nice ones at that.

Online dating services can provide you with potential dates in your area, but even better, they can help you find dates with interests and backgrounds similar to your own. You can narrow the possibilities down to specifics too. For instance, are you an African-American princess looking for an African-American prince? Are you looking for the Jewish man or woman of your dreams? Or are you a member of the gay community who wants to find a significant other with whom you can have a long, lusting, um, lasting relationship with?

If any of these sound familiar or you have a particular ideal in mind for your future dates, then there’s an online dating service just for you. No matter what your interests, tastes, religion or ethnic ideals are, you can find an online dating service filled with hundreds and thousands of like-minded people. Most general online dating services will have niches for posting your profile where you can enter the category you want to be in to find a potential date—or let them find you. Just post your profile and perhaps a picture, and let nature take its course.

And if you think online dating services are for people who couldn’t get a date if their lives depended on it, think again. Online dating has practically replaced conventional methods of dating.

Why? Well, a large part of the reason is that people are more time-strapped than ever. They simply don’t have time to waste going to singles bars and don’t want to. They prefer to get to know someone through messaging and emails.

And the email correspondence and messaging online dating services makes possible lets you get to know someone a bit before you take a risk on actually going out with them. Sure, there is always a little, well, white lying that goes on, but that’s usually just in the beginning of an online dating correspondence. It’s also part of the fun!

Because, be honest, you’re going to do it too, if you haven’t already. Even with some, shall we say, slight creativity, you can find out enough about someone through email to let you know if you want to pursue the relationship further with an actual date. And if you don’t, an online dating service offers you many more opportunities to look for dates you will want to pursue.

Really, the true question isn’t why try an online dating service. It’s why haven’t you already tried and become the member of an online dating service—or several? The person of your dreams is waiting!
