  1. Appears to be crazy over sex – wanting to have sex is not something new in today’s modern world. That is why, when a guy says in his profile that he is looking for someone that enjoys intimacy, which they actually mean sex but do not have the courage to honestly say it is a clear warning. Putting this in your profile can create an impression of being desperate and creepy.
  2. Boring Statements – writing boring statements in your profile can give you a hard time to get a date. Saying like you like going to a movie or love music in general is plain boring. Instead, state about your favorite song or artist, favorite action movie or TV show, visiting Manchester and the like. Statements like this will give your date a hint that you have something to talk about and not just yes, no, oh, and ah exchanges.
  3. Claims to be Young at Heart – it is good to have good sense of humor but never state about your mental age in your online dating profile. This will only give your possible date a hint that you do not have your life together.
  4. Photos in with company – avoid posting photos of you along with more attractive someone. Chances are your potential date will get more attractive to your companion than you. No one wants to send a resume of someone more competitive to a possible employer. Not even you. Therefore, if you want a date, advertise yourself and not somebody else. Post only solo photos of yours.
  5. Keep off bitter statements of your profile – statements like “I want real person” is a sample statement of someone’s bitter. It shows that you already have into fake relationships.
  6. You red flag checklist – we all have our own list of red flags. Stating them to your profile would only make you look like a psycho. Keep your own red flag checklist in your mind.

 

Dating security advice

We always search for our soul mate keenly. For that we often opt for various online dating services or dating physically. But when you are meeting an almost unknown person for the first time you need to be a little more cautious. What’s the harm in opt for a little bit of security while availing the dating services?

 

First thing first! This tip goes for the women going for the physical dating. Are you confirmed about the real identity of the person whom you are going to meet? Are you sure that the person does not have any wrong intension regarding you? I agree that it is impossible to know about his character and intensions by sitting in your room. But you can do one thing. Ask him to meet in a well-populated area. Risks are minimized if you people meet outside of a well-populated shopping mall or inside an amusement park. The other thing you can do is that ask him to bring his best friend along with him so that you can take your friend with you at least during the first date. Now, having a companion with you is always better in terms of security at the first date.

 

Now while availing the online dating services, it is important keep all your personal information private. So follow these tips to keep your personal information secured –

  • You should not use your regular and personal email address at any cost. Use a throw-away email ID for this purpose
  • Use Google voice service for verifying your mobile number without even providing your personal number.
  • You can also use Skype calling service to protect your phone number.
