How to Get the Girl Online

Filed under Online dating sites, May 21st, 2009 by admin

If there’s one thing that you could thank the recession for, it’s boosting online dating with significant rise in memberships to dating sites.  Whether or not you’re one of those men who resort to dating online out of boredom, loneliness, or simply testing the waters, you’d be happy to learn that most match-making sites have a 60-40 female to male ratio.  So, hold your horses, knights!  The statistics won’t do you any good if you don’t know what women want online.  Although most people say that it’s way easier to hook up through the Internet than face-to-face, it doesn’t mean that you won’t need these online dating tips for guys.

What women want online and offline are sincere compliments, not flattery.

If all you’ve seen so far is her profile photo, compliment her on what highlights her features best.  Steer clear of cheesy lines that not only sound fake but would also make your date want to bolt.  True, women love detail-oriented and funny guys, but never say how much her teeth would match her beige bedroom walls perfectly.

Pace yourself accordingly.

If you’re just starting to get to know each other, keep conversations light and witty.  Although some online dating tips for men would advise that women like men who are in touch with their emotions, that’s not applicable at the beginning of an online relationship.  There’s nothing more alarming to a woman than a man who’s too emotionally charged.  Aside from appearing too good to be true, you could be tagged as desperate and obsessive.  You wouldn’t want to be tagged anything other than “could be The One,” especially since women do spill the gory details to anyone who cares to ask.  In the event that it doesn’t work between you and your prospect, you wouldn’t have to move to another dating site.

The online dating tips for guys, which actually work, can be summarized in one word.

As Aretha Franklin would tell you, “R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to me!”  You don’t have to work too hard to impress women.  Don’t lie, use cuss words, or be too critical of other people, and your online relationship will go a long way.
