DATING FAQ
You can do both and increase you odd of finding your soul mate. Your
soul mate might have placed a personal ad and if you don't place one or
check you could miss them. It all depends on what your purpose is. Are
you looking for casual dating or the love of your life? In general,
personal ads are best for casual dating, and matchmaking is best for
finding the love of your life. You can try Free Matchmaking or place a Free Personal Ad and see which you like better.
Yes, people will want to know who you are before answering your ad. A
picture with a profile will greatly increase your likelyhood of getting
a letter. After all you want people who will accept you for who you
are. Remember, profiles without pictures get viewed at a fraction of
the rate that ones with photos.
Short answer no. Long answer, yes, it will make you seem like someone
they will want to answer. The more information that you fill out on the
form the better will be the replies that you will get from people. You
won't seem flaky or evasive if you answer all the questions. The more
you can tell people about you, the better will be the responses.
First of all you should not list them generally. Be specific when
talking about your hobbies and interests. Don't say I like music. Say I
like Linkin Park or Pink Floyd. List hobbies and interests that define
you as being unique. Try to include as many of your interest as
possible in the space provided. After all you want to make that special
connection, not connect with everybody. Please read Personal Ad Tips for more information.
You should have several pictures of you. They should be of you relaxed,
but not laying on the couch or bed. You should have several pictures of
you in nice clothes. A head shot or two a half length, a 3/4 length,
and a full length photo. In addition you might want to have some of you
in your favorite activities. Try and have a few pictures that display
the unique person that you are.
You should get a free account at someplace that is not related to you
in anyway like Yahoo or Hotmail. Do not use the email that your ISP
gave you, or your email at work, or the email that you use for your
business, or the email assiciated with your website. Please read Personal Ad Tips for more information.
Bad grammer, bad spelling and bad language all will hurt your
presentation as being a nice, good person that they want to know. Take
the time to run your profile thru a spell checker and grammer checker
before posting it. Besure to re-read it before posting so that it does
don't contain offensive language. Remember, you only get one chance to
make a good first impression. Running all of your correspondence thru a
spellchecker is a good idea. Please read Personal Ad Tips for more information.
Just give out general information like your hobbies and interests. Never give out personal identifiable information like your home phone #, home address, or real email address in your profile. Give a throw away email account, use a screen name not your real name.
Only give out such information when you are comfortable a person. Get a throw away email account just for dating contacts. This way your sig at the end of the mail will not giveany personal
information like where you work or business you own. Please read Personal Ad Tips for more information.
No. Anybody who asks you for financial date is not the kind of person
that you want to be considering dating. Drop them from your list of
people to correspond with. You are looking for someone interested in
who you are not how big is your wallet.
You should pick a nice place that you are comfortable with. A public
place that is filled with people. Besure to tell a friend or two where
you are going and whom you are meeting. You might even want to arrange
to call a friend at a specific time or two during the evening.
If you have not meet someone personally, you should not send people
money. Just stop writing them. There are many scammers out there, so be
cautious.
If someone refuses to send you their picture, you can safely assume
that they have lied to you about their looks or age, and maybe other
things as well. Just move on in your life. There are many other single
people worthy of your attention.
You have probably run into one of the scammers on the net. If you have
not meet the person face-to-face, I would be cautious and not trust
this person.
Only if the other people in the picture are very ugly and make you look
very good. Really, you want the focus to be on you and not someone else
in the picture. How will they know which person is you? Stick to
pictures of just you for your profile. Later you can send pictures that
include other people.
It is the correct and courteous thing to do. You only need to have a
short rejection letter. You can make a form letter and just fill in
their name when you send it.
If you are writing in response to their profile, then tell them where
you found them and why you think that you and them would be a good
match. If they agree, they will write you back. Don't forget to attache
a recent photo or two. Please read Letter of Introduction for a sample letter.
Keep it short and to the point. Say, "Hello "name here", Thank you for
taking the time to respond to my profile. Unfortunately, I do not feel
that we will make a good match. Best of luck in your search for love.".
