New Year’s Dating Resolutions

December 28th, 2007

This is your year. You can feel it.

No more sitting at home on the weekend, no more heading to the grocery store for yet another frozen dinner – no sir. You are going to find that special someone this year.

Sure, it’s going to take effort, sacrifice and hard work, but unlike the weight loss resolution you make every year, these online dating resolutions are easier to stick with.

Ready?

First of all, you need to find an online dating service that makes sense to you. Whether you choose a dating service that’s suited to your religion or your hobbies, pick a site where you feel at home and where you feel like you could date everyone that’s listed.

Next, make sure to interact with other singles on these sites. If you simply sit and wait for people to come to you, that’s no fun. You need to show that you’re just as interested as others are.

Finally, make sure you are going on dates from time to time. Living in virtual reality with online dating is easy – but if you want to find love, you need to take it to the next level. Casual dates can be a fun way to see if you click in real life, while also giving you more practice in dating altogether.

Welcome in 2008! It’s going to be a great year.

MySpace as an Online Dating Tool

May 30th, 2007

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.
