Online dating is one of the few things in the dating world that doesn’t have any rules. You can talk to whomever you want, break up on a whim, and generally just have fun meeting new people. But in all of this fun and freedom, you might want to remember that if you’re serious about meeting someone, you need to learn the rules of wooing – that is, how to flirt with someone you like.

When you’re out on date with someone, flirting is almost too easy. You simply touch their arm, laugh at all their jokes, etc. They know that you’re into them without your having to say it. But when you’re online, things change. You don’t have that face to face time at first, which can limit the ‘woo’ factor that keeps new relationships exciting.

You need to start flirting in the virtual world:

• Compliments still go a long way – By taking the time to notice things about the person you like, you can compliment them honestly to make them blush.
• Pay attention to them – Respond to your emails and make sure you show up for chat times. This shows that you care and that you’re interested in pleasing them.
• Ask questions – While this doesn’t seem like a flirting tip, just watch what happens when you ask someone questions about themselves; they’re going to respond much more favorably to you.

Though you aren’t able to give your ‘date’ a wink or a smile, you can give them a few flirtatious messages that get your point across – that you like them and you want them to like you too.

If you don’t already have a MySpace profile, you’re one of the few. Nearly everyone has one or more mySpace pages and profiles that are helping to connect people across the globe. And because you get to list your marital status and your reason for being on the webpage, you can easily use your page for a subtle online dating scene.

Without the obvious push towards dating on MySpace, you have the ability to talk with others that you might want to date WITHOUT the pressure. Simply accept new friends or don’t – the rejection is painless. And because you are usually found through your friends, it is nearly a matchmaking system as well. If your friends accepted that person, maybe you should too.

While you can use MySpace as a dating tool, you need to remember that many people use MySpace and other social networking sites to chat and make friends – don’t assume people are there to find a date.

When you are looking to make MySpace your dating tool, you will want to follow these tips:

• Have a good picture on your page, maybe several in your photo album
• Don’t have pictures with other dates you’ve been on – that can make you look attached and unavailable
• Take some time creating a fun page that highlights your interests and your personality
• Talk to someone else that has a mySpace page you like to get advice
• Read through profiles over MySpace to meet other people

By using the MySpace format, you will be able to converse with other potential dates – all without providing your email address or other personal information. It’s safe, it’s free, and it’s fun for everyone to try.

Being single is easy; dating is hard. Even with the emergence of online dating, it seems that more people than ever are single and staying that way. This creates the quandary of whether online dating is not as effective as it’s thought to be or if the daters are taking their real life behaviors and are bringing them online.

When you’re out at a bar, you tend to behave a certain way in order to attract those that you want to date or get to know better. If you haven’t been successful in this dating scene, however, you might find that your behaviors are actually more subtle than you think – and the other person just isn’t getting the hint.

To help with this problem, you decide to try online dating, thinking that it will help you overcome your shyness and your inability to talk to others. What you might want to realize is that online dating can still allow you to act the way that you did out in the ‘real’ world, so you’re still single and wondering why.

Dating experts believe that many singles are still single because they’re not taking risks or being as persistent as they need to be. With all of the information we’re bombarded with each day, those that we’re attracted to might not realize that we’re hitting on them. You need to be bold no matter where you are when you’re trying to attract a date.

When you’re online, you need to have a profile that’s fun and exciting and really talks about who you are and what makes you special. When you’re out in that bar, you need to create a way for people to notice you – even if it’s simply a bright color that you’re wearing.

Taking a risk to be noticed is the way to attract more dates than you ever thought possible. Try it.
