DATING ADVICE FOR FEMALES
Dating advice for females seeking males on Internet dating sites. Safety tips, photo presentation, online profiles, making contact, first dates and dealing with rejection.
Whether you are new to online dating or have used other dating sites, it is important that you read our advice and tips to ensure your experience is fun, safe and without disappointing results.
YOUR PHOTOS
- Like it or not, the way we all look is what first attracts the attention of the opposite sex. This is not someone being shallow, this is a fact of life and your photographs are the only way you can first draw the attention of a potential date.
- The quality and type of photographs you use on this website will have a direct impact on how many and what type of respondents you receive. If you are not happy with the photos you wish to use, get a friend with a digital camera to take as many photographs of you as you like until you are happy with the ones you have chosen.
- Make an effort, a touch of lippy, eye shadow and comb can work wonders. Make the photo session fun with a few changes of clothes and location. You only get once chance to make a first impression and looking at photographs on many other dating sites will tell you why so many people are alone.
- If you can afford to and you are serious about finding a genuine partner, use a professional photographer. We can all look good if we make an effort and like a dogs dinner if we don't.
- Ask a friend to help you choose which photographs to use as most of us are never happy with the way we look in photographs.
- Change them if you get better photos or you are not getting responses to your profile.
- Don't use photographs that are several years old, as you will be caught out and both parties will feel cheated when you meet.
YOUR ONLINE PROFILE
- Your photographs will be what makes potential dates click through to find out more about you.
- It is only when you get to meet someone that your real personality will shine through. Until then, all you have is your online profile.
- BE HONEST or you will attract men who are totally unsuited to your personality and lifestyle. If you lie, exaggerate or are frugal with the truth, you will be found out eventually.
- If your ideal evening is curled up in front of the television with a cup of tea, say so. Don't include mountaineering and paragliding as your hobbies, or your first date up the north side of the Eiger will be pretty miserable.
- Don't say you like the theatre or opera if you have never been or rarely ever go. Say you have never been but would like to explore this side of our culture or you could spend an evening discussing Chekhov and Il Sogno di Scipione.
- You would do far better to find someone who also wants to learn and discover mutual things rather than spending an evening with someone who is not an intellectual match.
- Ask your friends to describe you personality and characteristics. Ask them to be honest. Everyone shines and sparkles in their own special way and you are no exception.
- There are thousands of men out there who would just love to meet the real you, so make it easy for them to find you.
MAKING CONTACT
- Don't sit back and expect men to contact you. All their lives, men have had to pluck up the courage to make the intimidating and lonely walk across a dance floor to ask a girl to dance. And more often than not, the lonely and embarrassing walk back under the gaze of everyone.
- If you like the way someone looks and their profile suits the type of man you are looking for, contact them. You are in control now and can shape your personal life in any way you wish.
- Don't contact someone just because of the way they look. If they are interested in jogging and the Martial Arts and you like the Theatre and wine tasting, the sex may be great, but the silences in between will be deafening.
- Forget the cliché that all men are the same - they are not. Men come in all shapes and sizes, they have varying interests, (they don't all like football). They will all be looking for something different in a relationship and they will all be looking for someone different.
- Some men are shy; others are over confident and most are something that rests between these two afflictions. Some may never have found true love yet; others will have been deeply wounded by the failure of a relationship, others by the loss of their spouse, most will be kind, generous, gentle souls and some may just be pigs preying on women's emotions.
- Most are fragile creatures looking for love.
- Communicate by email at first, and take your time. Dating should be fun, you can make a lot of new friends and meet interesting people. Above all be patient and use your commonsense.
