The Unwritten Rules Of Online Dating
The number of online dating sites have proliferated to such extend that they are virtually everywhere and in great numbers. Online dating opens a window allowing the vast numbers of potential partners to meet each other, is a stress free and affordable way of meeting people, making friends.
Meeting a woman online is harder than meeting her in real life. In face-to-face meeting you can use the body language, voice tone, and also eye contacts in your favor, but with online dating this is not possible. If you don't play the few cards you have right, she will skip right past your email, and this time you won't have a second chance.
Even though, more and more singles are using online dating services. But not many of them know that there are some unwritten rules, tips and tricks that will make the online dating experience much better. So, these are some of the unwritten rules that you should know before starting dating online.
First and the most important is that you don't have to expect from the beginning at too much. Online dating is a process. So, it takes time, a lot of patience to search, screen and email, chat and date before you succeed. Remember that, and don't be too enthusiastic when you see an interesting profile. The big mistake made by the people who use online dating services is that if they fail once in meeting a compatible person as a partner, they give up and try something else. But, as I said, you have to have patience and to go on several dates to find the perfect match.
Take some time to respond. Maybe your instincts will probably tell you to respond to emails from prospective dates right away. If you reply to your email too soon, this will be perceived as being desperate for a date, and we all know and avoid desperate people because at a certain moment they can become too possessive. If you wait for some time, you can improve your standings; so you have time to compose an appropriate response, and also to research the person who seems interested by your profile to see if you'd be a possible match.
Take things slow. The secret to turning an internet dating site attraction in a lasting relationship is to go at a realistic pace. Usually online dating sites tend to create quick connections between people that crash and burn; so to make things last, slow them down.
When you compose your profile you have to be honest, think about the fact that the truth will be revealed once you meet her in person. Trust is important in any relationship so it's better to not risk sabotaging. If you have to meet her someday, she will feel disappointed when she'll see that you laid her.
If you decide to answer at an email keep the tone light and friendly. Keep your dialog simple and general at first, while getting to know the person you are communicating with. Be conservative with what you write, remember that until you really come to know the person to the other end, don't give out private informationÂs about yourself, such as home address, place of employment...Also is preferable to avoid talking about sex on your online profile and while you chat to potential mates.
Once you open up contact with somebody who you think it may interest you, take your time in getting to know her better; now you have the opportunity to exchange relevant details about each other. But, only meet when you are ready. If someone is pushing or pressuring you to meet with her before you feel comfortable, just say that you are not quite there, but you'd like to continue chatting.
If you decide to go to your first meeting, the perfect place is a coffee shop during the day. If the person who shows up does not meet your expectations, cut the meeting short and go your way. Always be polite, no matter what.
Also, don't get discouraged. If you've send out a few messages and few winks and you've gotten only a fraction of the replies you were hoping for, don't get discouraged and keep trying. Try looking over your messages objectively and see what could help generate more responses.
Good luck!
BONUS : The Way To Dress While Visiting Russia
The first difference you may see is how dressed up most girls are. DonÂt let that intimidate you. It is typical for a Russian bride to wear heels on a regular basis, to wear dresses and look polished even if she is simply going to a store. Most women here work and coming to office automatically implies wearing dressy clothes. You will also see many of them wear jeans, which is acceptable casual attire for men as well.
While it is common knowledge that most women spend hours in front of the mirror getting ready before a date, clothing choice before a big event is not any less nerve racking for men. If you are taking a <Russian bride» for a first date, we would strongly recommend to get dressed up. A man in a suit is always an attractive sight, however if you are not big on wearing suits, slacks and shirt will be just fine.
Your choice of attire will also depend on where you are going. For people in the FSU countries going to a restaurant is not an every-day occasion, it implies something special. If you plan on attending an establishment like that, your best bet is to go dressy. If you plan on going to a night club, pants or jeans with a button-up shirt will be fine. If you are planning a day time outing, feel free to go as casual as you like (jeans, shorts and t-shirts are fair game).
Many people ask about clothing when traveling to the FSU in the fall and winter. It is difficult to give one-fits all advice, because the temperatures in the cold season will vary from region to region. You can check the weather forecast in advance as well as ask the person you are visiting or one of our agents for specifics before leaving your home country.
Some foreigners have done the following: they bring a light jacket and a heavy sweater just for the time of travel, and purchase the rest of the clothing one they arrive to their destination. You wonÂt spend as much on your clothes in FSU as you will at home, and you can always leave some of it if your luggage gets too heavy or if donÂt have any use for the purchased items back at home. If you budget has room for such an alternative, you may find this option more convenient in terms of having a lighter luggage and leaving more room for gifts and souvenirs.
If you decide to shop for clothes, you will find plenty of boutiques and stores to visit. However, if you are looking for a good deal, you can always take a trip to an open air market (these are very popular in the FSU countries). Wherever you decide to look for clothes, take extra caution to examine the items for quality.
Also, keep in mind that it is not common for people in the FSU countries to use a washer and dryer cycle, as common in the US, for example. Many clothes you will find (especially winter items) might have hand wash only, no dryer instructions. So, if you plan on buying something you would like to wear after returning home, take an extra look at clothing care instructions.
