There may just be a wonderful man out there looking for a woman just like you. online dating can be a fun new avenue for a woman on the prowl. But what does Internet dating mean for a woman, anyway? How can you up your chances of finding the partner you’ve been looking for? The answers are simple – with a bit of work and a lot of luck, you can do it with the click of a mouse. You won’t need a book or an expensive counselor to tell you how to find a date online if you follow these sensible tips.
Stigma
In the not-so-distant past, the only people who took part in the online dating scene were either desperate or nerdy programmers hooked on the World Wide Web. Luckily for today’s woman, the world of Internet dating has lost much of its stigma in the last five years. You can be confident meeting someone online isn’t unusual or foolish – in many cases; it just makes sense to reach into a wider dating pool.
Don’t Limit Your Options
Just because you’ve decided to search for love online doesn’t mean you should lower your exacting standards for what you want in a man. The great news about online dating services is they allow you to select for qualities and characteristics you find valuable, while allowing you to search based on more superficial qualities. If you’ve been dreaming of someone tall, dark and handsome who lives within 20 miles of your doorstep, you’re in luck. It’s a good idea to go for a man whose profile you connect with on a more personal level. Shared interests, hobbies and goals go a long way – both online and in the eventual in-person meeting.
Put Your Best Foot Forward
It suits a girl to be as honest and forthright in her profile as possible. Make sure you post an attractive, current picture and are up-front about any dealbreakers or special preferences. But remember, your profile is the only chance you’ll have to make a first impression on the person who may be your future partner – you don’t want to waste those precious few moments with a list of demands. Think things through when writing your profile, and don’t be afraid to post the wacky details making you much more desirable and interesting to a potential partner.
Be Safe
It may sound like common sense, but don’t forget about your personal safety just because you’re sitting behind your keyboard in your pajamas while surfing your favorite Internet dating site. Don’t give potential dates your home address, and meet in a public place. If you are planning to meet your online date, make sure somebody else knows about your plans. And remember – if you feel uncomfortable in a dating situation; feel free to cut off contact. It’s both your prerogative and obligation to keep safety in mind at all times.
Take It Easy
Whether you’re going online to find marriage or just a fun activity partner, remember Internet dating has its perks and drawbacks, much like any other dating venue. Your expectations shouldn’t be low, but they should be realistic and reflected in your attitude towards the entire experience. So take a deep breath, perfect that profile, and get ready to widen your social circle!
I am going to take a wild shot in the dark: You don't need me to tell you that it makes sense to be 'gaming' lots of girls at once? Maybe so, but it can't hurt to take a closer look at WHY it is so helpful. BTW- If you are only looking to locate Ms. Right than you need to peruse this article even more.
When you have multiple options, the loss of one is not a crushing blow. If I am actively pursuing 10 girls at the same time and two of them flake I have a wonderful place to refocus my attention: 8 other lovely prospects. In fact,if you view your failures as learning experiences than you can take whatever you may have learned from the two flakes and instantly apply those lessons to subsequent interactions. In essence, failure can become exciting and fun! (Although clearly it should never be your goal)
There's an old joke that always stuck with me: How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice! Practice makes perfect. 'Game' is not something people are born with. It is comprised of many learnable skill sets and therefore takes a certain amount of dedication. The more women you are pursuing, the more opportunities you have to make connections between situations and occasionally have a revelation or two. When I was a kid I used to play the clarinet and set aside a half hour a day to do my scales. Now I set aside an hour or two a day to text and make phone calls to my prospects. And in the evenings I'm out with many of them 'practicing' in person. The point is, the more women you are actively pursuing, the more practice you are getting and the faster you will develop.
Building on practice is this key idea: Having multiple girls in your sights encourages you to experiment and take risks with them. I cannot overemphasize how essential this idea is. Knowing that we have 'backups' in place can fuel us to take risks that we would normally hesitate on. We can use this newfound freedom to try out new techniques. We can use it to actually go with our impulses instead of blocking them.
All of the most important discoveries and breakthroughs I've made have been a direct result of this concept. You can read about pickup and think about pickup as much as you want but if you're not actually out there taking chances with it you are not going to improve at all. And if you're primarily focused on one girl at a time there is no way you are going to be able to adopt this crucial mindset.
And perhaps the most important reason for having multiple prospects is this: your behavior and your energy will change for the better without even thinking about it. When you consider it, we are consciously putting ourselves in the same position that very high value females are in. They have so many suitors that they can't really keep up and have no choice but to flake in many cases. This is one of the reasons I purposely schedule many of my 'dates' with different women for the same evening. (A technique I discuss more in 'No Flakes') Now the situation is flipped and I am having to cancel
with them. Your aura itself is different; it is free (or freer) of any hint of desperation or neediness. The more prospects you have on your plate, theless anxiety you will experience over any one of them. And as women are typically more intuitive than men, they will most certainly pick up on this.
In other words the more women I am gaming, the better my success rate is with them. So to the man who says, "No, I just want to find the one girl for me!" I say in response: You'll have a much better chance of finding her if you're exploring multiple options, and she will probably be much more receptive to you because of the positive changes in your behavior as a result of having those options.
