Why Do People Fall in Love and Become Careless?

June 11th, 2008


It happens so often, it seems like these kinds of stories shouldn’t even be making the headlines anymore: Homeless “millionaire” scams women out of £50,000 via online dating .

And what happens as a result? People get turned off to online dating because they think it’s just a dangerous thing to do.

This is not the whole truth.

Yes, when you don’t meet someone in person, you do open yourself up to a higher risk of getting conned or tricked, but the same can be done when you’re meeting others in real life.

So the real question is – what can you do to protect yourself in love?

Love may be blind, but it shouldn’t be. You need to make sure you are keeping your eyes wide open as you enter into a relationship. Anything that seems off or that just doesn’t seem right should be carefully scrutinized.

And maybe we just need to make this point abundantly clear – if you’re just starting to date someone, don’t give them a large amount of money, no matter how nice they seem.

Dating is about getting to know each other, not about getting money from each other. The red flags should be flying as soon as someone asks for more money than the bar tab you have rung up.

Run away from these con artists – and online dating doesn’t have to be scary at all. But you’re the one that needs to do the running away as these thieves are always going to be around because people continue to fall for their trickery.

Don’t be the next victim.

Online Dating Turning into Something Darker?

March 29th, 2007

While online dating is a great way to meet new people to date, it seems that some online dating sites are taking dating into the dark side. It seems that the idea of a ’sugar daddy’ is now becoming the focus of some dating websites – but is this a good thing?

In truth, the idea of online dating is a mutual arrangement in which both parties benefit from the transaction – they’re both in it for the date, and if that’s the result, the transaction is successful. But by adding the idea of receiving gifts as a result of dating someone, the goal of online dating is somewhat obscured. Isn’t the goal supposed to be finding love rather than finding wealth or gifts?

For some women and men, it seems that meeting a rich person is their top priority, above and beyond traditional things such as love, friendship and sharing things in common. And these folks are not ashamed to admit it. This new type of online gold digger may be a young and ambitious person, who realizes that they will be unable to fulfil their dreams of a lavish lifestyle through their own efforts. And for those women, and a growing number of men seeking rich women, there’s plenty of dating services out there willing to help them.

This is where online dating is headed for some folks. With sites out there for those seeking arrangements and those that cater to women looking for rich men, the idea of ‘ordering’ your relationship with all of its benefits is the newest trend. For example, take a look at sites such as SeekingArrangements.com, SeekingArrangement.com, WealthyMen.com or SugarDaddy.com.

The idea of this, however, is causing other dating websites to look, well, dull. By ‘just’ offering love and romance, some daters are finding that they’re not really getting anything more out of this kind of dating experience than they would from the bar scene. And if you’re just going to find poor matches for dates, why not go to a site where you can get material things for your troubles?

Is this the answer for online daters? Only time will tell. But when you want to find love and romance, you should be looking for more than just their checking account balance – because money runs out eventually.
