5 <strong>Mistakes</strong> <strong>People</strong> <strong>Still</strong> <strong>Make</strong> <strong>In</strong> <strong>Online</strong> <strong>Dating</strong><br />

As more generations have become familiar with the online environment, you’d think that they all reached<br />

the standard level of communicating and dating on the web. Sadly, many are still very clumsy or simply<br />

fail to apply the common sense rules, valid on the web as much as in real life. If you are doing the<br />

following, you need to reconsider your approach immediately:<br />

1.) Being desperate<br />

Being desperate and showing it never worked in anyone’s favor. This is displayed in simple ways in online<br />

dating, such as: suggestive nicknames (Single Man, Lonely Girl etc.), an account of scarce relationships, a<br />

statement about the length of time you’ve been single for, or describing how awful you feel because you<br />

don’t have a partner. Some individuals believe that stating such with honesty will trigger compassion and<br />

get them some attention. Showing despair in anyway is negative because it’s not an attraction factor.<br />

2.) Poor writing hygiene<br />

Not caring about how your online dating profile is written is a sign that you are lazy, uneducated, careless<br />

and more – the list goes on. It’s not impressive to fail to capitalize letters when needed, to skip<br />

punctuation or shorten words. Follow the rules of a good writing hygiene and your profile will show that<br />

you respect yourself and well as others. That’s’ You should consider reading some of Best Conversation<br />

3.) <strong>In</strong>sisting on one aspect only<br />

Whether it’s sexuality, a hobby or something else, no online dating profile should be based on one thing<br />

only. If you reduce your online persona to one single thing, you become boring to most people. Also, you<br />

could come across as obsessed. Supposedly, we are all complex individuals and there’s more than one<br />

aspect to each of us.<br />

4.) Posting random pictures<br />

Photos on your dating profile are not required just to prove that you have a face. Be aware that people<br />

are making serious judgments based on the pictures you provide and this may not be as vain as you think.<br />

Post flattering photos and avoid the ones that are blurry, that make you look sloppy, pictures in which<br />

you seem “crazy” or “funny” or those which show you surrounded by many members of the opposite sex.<br />

This will not point out that you’re great fun, seductive or friendly, but rather silly, embarrassing and<br />

definitely a player.<br />

5.) Not conveying any meaning<br />

Although some profiles appear to be highly descriptive, they don’t say much in fact. Sure you are “social<br />

and outgoing”, but does that mean that you like going to festivals and getting drunk or that you enjoy a<br />

meeting with friends in a pub or at a picnic? There can be huge differences whenever two different<br />

people use words like “fun”, “social”, “outgoing”, “interesting”, “intense” etc.<br />

<strong>In</strong> the end, dating is about discovering what two people have in common and what can unite or<br />

eventually separate them. This is valid on the <strong>In</strong>ternet, too. You don’t have to act like all you want to do is<br />

to “sell yourself”. Also, keep in mind that making one single mistake in an otherwise great dating profile<br />

can ruin your chances and chase people away.<br />
