People have been asking me about this for a while. The questions range from; What's the best relationship forum? Who should I trust in a Relationship Forum, the administrator or the commentators? Why should I look into a relationship forum at all, what's the use, it seems like a bunch of people spewing their problems to the whole? Why bother? Who cares?
Well, YOU should! The purpose of a forum is for open discussion between people. The Romans built large buildings for this purpose, however in our society we are able to do the same, both in the traditional function and on the net. However I do caution people that you can lose large amounts of time just looking at questions and responses in these forums. It's kind of like going to a sporting event and trying to listen to every conversation that is being held; you could waste a lot of time. So the key things to do are:
Go In With Your Filters On
Only Respond In Short Answers
Leave Your Contact Info For Further Discussion
Follow these 3 simple keys and you'll realize the beauties of a relationship forum. In these relationship forums you can find out problems to avoid, solutions to similar problems that you have and some that you may have come across. It's better to be prepared and/or spared of problems. In other words, learn from other people mistakes and mishaps. You'll be surprised by reading the questions and answers that you'll see yourself and your sweetie in those posts. So use the forums wisely, and to your advantage.
Here's how to apply the 3 keys:
1.) Go In With Your Filters On
Know what you're looking for, before you even go into the relationship forum and by golly stick to it. It may take some practice but after a while you'll get use to it. Just keep in mind your subject, whether it's relationship money, bad relationships, or long term relationships, whatever. The point is to stick to the point.
2.) Only Respond In Short Answers
Let's be honest the chance that you see a post that either extremely helps you or makes you wonder, ?what was this person thinking when they posted this crap?? is very high because you're looking at a subject that has your interest! Don't let (you) waste your time either with these long winded time consuming (from typing) responses. Remember K.I.S.S.? Apply it here!
3.) Leave Your Contact Info For Further Discussion
This is straight to the point. You can type your url in the body of your post, or if the forum allows you always have a link to your url, whenever you post this is fine also. The reason for the further discussion is if you truly want to talk to the person for whatever reason; debating, seeking understanding, etc.
Always keep in mind that your time is precious and all that excess time that you wasted looking around that relationship forum, you could have been spending it with your sweetie. Always apply these 3 keys to any forum, especially a relationship forum.
Since you're going to be visiting them it wouldn't hurt to find out how to get money from these forums.
