A Woman’s Do's And Don’ts Of Online Dating

There are certain things that women should never do while engaged in an online relationship with a man. These things are certain to put a quick and final end to any further communications with him.

While chatting online or through email, do not write your life story. His eyes will glaze over and he will fall out of his chair. Keep it short and sweet till he asks for details, then provide them slowly and only answer the questions he asks. For example: If he asks how many siblings you have, he is NOT asking for details of your interaction with them. He really just wants to know how many you have. Say you have 2 (or whatever is true) and then ask how many he has. For every question he asks you, you should ask one of him. Nothing turns a man off like a long- winded woman who just doesn’t know when to shut up or how to listen.

Never EVER lie, as lies will catch up with you sooner or later. Many women and men lie about their age, marital status, employment, height, weight and other things in their online profiles. That is a huge mistake. If you find a man whom you are really interested in, he will find out that you lied and there goes any possibility of the relationship progressing. So, be honest. There will be someone out there who like you, even come to love you for exactly who you are.

Don’t be too eager. This makes you look desperate and really puts a man off. They are first and foremost conquerors and if getting the person of their desires to like them too becomes just too easy, they will lose interest quickly. This don’t mean playing “hard-to-get”, just don’t push for a face-to-face meeting too soon. Don’t email them or IM them too frequently. Play it safe and play it cool.
