Dating situation, dating services, online dating, free online dating and free dating services are what you might type in a search engine if you are feeling lonely and want a date. Most people are tempted objective to try it once and see how it works. I know because I was one of those people almost 2 years ago.

What a I found was plenty of married men looking for a little extra on the side, men with bizarre fetishes, geeks, freaks and a few nice guys. I know what most people contemplate, and that is only losers frequent those sites looking for a quick roll in the hay but that’s only really a small percentage.

I know better because I was on a few dating sites before I met Ray. Ray or I are not considered unusual by any one who knows us and he found my profile on an online dating service called plenty of fish. When I tell people that I met Ray on a dating place they are horrified, and they should not be. The internet is full of salubrious honest people, but there’s a darker side one that is full of people who are ashamed to tell the truth.

You and I surf the net and we are a good perple so doesn’t only make sense that there are more obliging ones like you and I out here? Obvious you can find the weirdoes out there but for the most part there are plenty of good people out there much like yourself who are just lonely and don’t want to do the bar scene.

Online dating is a great way to go for many reasons, but the top one I can think of is you can gather to know someone a little bit before you give them your number or acquire a date. Trust your instincts about people and keep it on the location until you feel comfortable enough to move it onto one of the instant messengers.

There are plenty of paid dating sites out here, but personally I like the free dating sites because money is always tight!

Be Honest

Be honest when creating your profile on an online dating service because honesty is always the best policy, unprejudiced like your momma told you. If you are going on a dating site to meet someone then you owe it to yourself to be honest. For if things do progress to a level where you will meet offline you need to be honest.

Add a recent photo, a year archaic photo is obedient but one that is 10 years old is not. The people looking for dates must stare the real you. Also if you do put up a photo of one or more people, you need to identify yourself within the profile.

Be honest about body size, some people prefer only toothpicks, while some like the heavy people while some like the average size. Don’t be ashamed of your size, and lying about it will only get you busted if and when you meet in person.

You don’t need to list all your perceived faults in the profile as people will peep you as being a negative person and will click away fast. However you need to disclose them somewhere between the first few emails and before you meet in person.

Instant messengers:

Before you meet in person go ahead and talk on one of the instant messengers, this allows you get to know someone a bit better. There are plenty of instant messengers out there to download for free. The more popular ones are yahoo’s instant messenger, ICQ, aim (aol instant messenger) and windows messenger.

My preference is yahoo’s instant messenger, simply because locally it is more approved.

One of the main reasons I suggest using yahoo is because it not only is a text messenger but it also allow voice chat. It also has achieves where you can look help if need be and check your facts.

Instant messengers are full of people getting to know each other so if you give you potential online date your messenger name you will not be alone.

Talking on the phone

When the time is right, and only you know this, you can exchange numbers and talk on the phone. This is a substantial way to get to know someone and if you feel the need to block your number you can do that by pressing * 68.

I will always remember the first words of the first conversation that Ray and I had. He answered the phone with a heavy accent, and I said Oh My God you do have an accent, and he said no you do. He had told me he was Australian but for some reason it honest didn’t not register to me as we talked thru the site and on messenger that he had an accent.

I know what you are thinking here and that is what I shall talk about. That’s easy start with the weather and that can be a great opener, also anything that interested you in your instant messenger conversations or emails can be further discussed here.

Ray being more of a talker then I am told me all about growing up in Sydney, he told me in such detail that I could almost see it within my head. We talked an amazing 5 hours that first phone call and I admit he did most of the talking.

Meeting for the first time.

When the time comes and you both feel comfortable meeting in person, it needs to be in a public place and as friends. Do not expect anything more or less. Go Dutch if possible this way neither of you feels obligated in any way.

The first night I met Ray in person was a spur of the moment thing. My friend Chrissy and I were talking about going to the local Chinese buffet for a gradual supper and Ray said it sounded good so we brought him along. The rest they say is history, but he did not kiss me that night, and that would not happen for at least a month.

Your first meeting should have no expectations but should be pleasurable and fun. Get to know each other for the wonderful people you are. If true love is to be had it will surely come sooner or later.
