Whilst women are vulnerable to rape, date rape, scammers and online sexual predators like married men, hiding behind anonymity, men can be just as vulnerable in other ways. Our safety advice is important, so please ensure your read it.
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 can until you are happy with the ones you have chosen.
- Make an effort, have a haircut, shave and choose clothes that flatter your figure and colouring. Make the photo session fun with a few changes of clothes and location.
- If you can afford to and you are serious about finding a genuine partner, use a professional photographer.
- 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 women 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 a game of chess with a good bottle of wine, say so. Don't include riding and stock car racing as your hobbies, or your first date jumping hedges could end up in your local emergency ward.
- 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.
- Ask your friends to describe your 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 women 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 hope women will contact you. All their lives, most women have had to sit and wait for men to approach them. A culture change is on the way but it has yet to become a revolution.
- If you like the way someone looks and their profile suits the type of woman you are looking for, contact them. You are in control 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, you will have little in common and the silences will be deafening.
- Forget the cliché that all women are the same - they are not. Women come in all shapes and sizes, they have varying interests, (they don't all hate football). They will all be looking for something different in a relationship and they will all be looking for someone different.
- Some women 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 your emotions.
- Most are strong but fragile creatures looking for love.
- Communicate by email at first, use the online chat facilities 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.
