A common question among friends these days is whether or not singles should try to meet their ideal partner through online dating. The first answer usually comes from the cautious individuals who warn against predators and seemingly demented individuals. Next you have the handful of people who know ’so and so’ who just got married to the person that they met online. When it is my turn, I always point out that there is no commitment by simply looking and discovering how it all works. What has someone got to lose by setting up a simple profile and seeing what happens?
By definition, online dating is the association of two individuals through the Internet. The idea doesn’t seem all that different from meeting a stranger in a bar or nightclub. Instead of getting dressed up, going out and using your discerning eye to select potential candidates from a crowd of singles gathered for various reasons, you can sit at your computer and put in a basic order for the ideal person. The initial ‘weeding’ is done for you.
First you need to choose from the numerous sites that offer this type of service. Make sure to visit several sites, browse as much as you can without signing up and make an educated decision about which one(s) might suit what you are looking for. Several sites offer many different options as far as what you can advertise you are looking for in a relationship from friendships to something very serious. For some, this range offers a great deal of prospects to choose from. Others would prefer a site that is much more focused on exactly the type of relationship they are looking for.
It’s the next step that is probably going to be the most difficult one. Actually communicating with someone who interests you or who has already let you know that what you have put in your profile interests them. Most sites have a ‘hint’ you can send to let a subscriber know that they have your interest, whether it be a smile, wink or some other cute flirting device. You will probably receive the same back or even a personal message. That’s where you make the decision about whether or not someone interests you enough to proceed. If no one interests you, don’t despair. People create profiles every day and some sites even offer suggestions based on questions asked when you set up your account.
If someone interests you immediately, you will have to make initial contact or respond to his or her inquiry to you. It’s even possible to feel the excitement and flutter in your stomach when you begin contact that you feel when meeting a potential date for the first time!
It’s important to remember to be cautious at first, be yourself, and be aware of potential problems with any person that might contact you and follow your own instincts. But most importantly, be yourself and have fun! It might be different for you, but you are now in charge of your dating life through your computer!

The Five Killer Mistakes Men Make With Online Dating! By Mick Jones-Author of How To meet Women on the Internet.
Here are the top five mistakes and how to avoid them with dating women online!
Mistake#1. Having a Boring, Average Profile!
Common mistake guys make.
You have to put some decent time and effort into the profile.
You MUST shine above the masses…
Tip one is to have an interesting / different profile with some humour.
Tip two is to have nothing negative in your profile. And a good photo!
Mistake#2. Placing too High a Value On a Potential Date!
This is another instinctive mistake made when first starting out.
Your mind plays tricks on you and you put the lady on a pedestal before even meeting her!
Particularly if you haven’t had a date for a while.
Tip one, Treat every potential date as an opportunity for YOU to check HER out and see if you fancy her!
Tip two, NEVER expect to meet the love of your life on a first date.
This way you will never be disappointed and sometimes very pleased.
Mistake#3. Not Meeting Quickly Enough!
Did this myself for far too long.
The longer you leave it before you meet, the less likely it is to happen.
So forget about emailing for months and getting all worked up over email.
As soon as possible, meet for coffee and a chat to see if you like each other.
This will save you a lot of time and energy…and disappointments.
Tip one, Ask for a coffee date in the first two weeks of emails.
Tip two, if she doesn’t agree to meet, move on and don’t worry about it.
There are plenty more…
Mistake#4. Emailing Interstate and Overseas Profiles!
I did this as well when I first started dating online.
It’s tempting to do but is a complete waste of your time, energy and focus.
Unless you are rich and have a lot of spare time, don’t bother with interstate and overseas profiles.
What’s the odds of you ever really hooking up?
Very little…
Why would they be better than someone local?
Tip one, only focus and contact women in your immediate area.
Tip two, keep it down to 100 km radius from your home. This will Keep your expenses and time travels down…
Mistake#5. Not Calling the Meeting Café!
This is more important than it sounds. Women like to be lead by a decisive man. So call the café, time and date.
If she can’t make it when you suggest, reschedule to suit her.
She will get the impression you are not timid and are comfortable making decisions…this is good.
Tip one, make the first date during a week night. This will suggest you have a life and are busy on the weekend.
Tip two, be relaxed at the coffee date. Don’t mention past partners or that you haven’t dating anyone for a long time. Just have some fun and BE happy…
Avoiding these five mistakes will save you a lot of time, money, energy and focus with online dating. They will prevent you from quitting before you start getting the results you desire and deserve.
Have fun and many happy seductions….
