It is estimated that thirty percent of American singles have used online dating sites. I don't know how many people that is, nor if that statistic is true throughout the internet connected world. What's certain is that right now there are millions of love-hungry people online. There will be millions tomorrow too, and this time next year there may be even more.

That's a lot of people!

Whilst everyone is different, it's fair to say they all want the same thing in the end: they want to feel loved. If you want to seduce women - online or off for that matter - you have to make them first feel better than they do right now.

And you won't do that by flexing your muscles.

For a woman especially, this means feeling safe. It means feeling attractive and desirable. Above all, it means feeling. (That's as opposed to "groping"!)

Women, by and large, do not work on the same visual plane as us guys. Of course, they care about your appearance - so should you! But they're much more "wired" to emotion. (After all, nature has blessed or cursed women with the ability to have babies, and her instinct is to find a good father. Men are programmed to procreate as often as possible and thus look for a healthy mother. Now you know why you want to seduce women - it's in the genes!)

As if you cared!

When you first approach a woman - even online - you should have this in mind. If you want to seduce women, you've got to be asking yourself how you are making her feel. She almost certainly won't want to hear about your interest in football or baseball, and she certainly won't want any of your vital statistics, much as you might be keen to learn hers!

To seduce a woman online, (I've done it many dozens of times!), try teasing her a little - not to make her squirm, but to make her smile. It makes a woman feel good because it shows your noticing her uniqueness. Obviously, if you're going to have a chance of seducing women, you need to know where the line is between teasing and taunting!

When telling her about yourself, tell her something about how you feel about things - (not your football team!) - but things like relationships. Be honest. You won't seduce women with insincerity, and they have a radar for this better than bats can catch moths!

If you're not ready for a committed relationship, say so. Hopefully, you've been canny enough to pick women who are on the same wavelength. It's a bit mean to try to seduce women who want a husband and family life if all you're after is a one night stand!

Here's a big tip to seduce women: never mention how the last relationship ended because she was a b***ch! No, no and no again. If you do that, she'll be asking herself if you're thinking of her that way. Never compare her with an ex. Ever. Period. Got that?

Whenever I've successfully seduced a woman online, I've told her (truthfully) that I live from the heart. I follow my passions and I do things because I love them. (So think about what you love before you start writing or talking.

If it's football, that's okay, just don't tell her all the latest scores. Tell her how much you make time for things you love. (You can always point out that football is a poor substitute for the company of a lovely woman!)

Here's another big tip to seduce women too: put her at the centre of your thoughts. This doesn't mean going into sexual fantasy.

For example, tell her how her photo, (if she has one) took your breath away. And for heaven's sake find something in her profile that you can talk about. She will have sweated blood over compiling it, so give her some credit and make her sound interesting to you.

(If she's one of those who's left all her profile blank, why are you writing to her anyway? Why would you want to seduce women who can't be bothered to write more than their name? There are hundreds more out there near you, unless your home is central Sahara Desert!)

If you truly want to seduce women online, follow these simple principles and they'll beat a path to your (bedroom) door.
