Dating Rules

 here is always someone mentioning dating rules. These are actions while dating to help it become an enjoyable and successful experience. There really are no set rules, but ideas people have developed to help their dating experiences. Now with online dating become popular there are rules to online dating as well.


The internet is full of online dating sites that cater to a variety of needs for matching two people. It could be religion or culture based or those that want to date or find a mate. These are just a few examples. Knowing the rules to online dating can help you have a productive and enjoyable experience. It can also help you have a safer experience as well since you are dealing with strangers.


Start off your online dating experience by being honest. You want to be honest and you owe that to the others on the site as well. When you talk about your interests -- be truthful. When you talk about yourself - be truthful. If you lie you won't have a strong relationship and the truth coming out will cause trouble. It will also be stressful trying to keep up with all the lies. Your photo needs to really be you as well. It does not make any sense to have a morphed photograph of somebody else and while you look like average Joe or Jane. This will not be a long lasting solution because when you will go on a real date, the fact will be out. 
Another thing to consider is having a short but catchy profile. You never want to see a rant in he profile but a crisp, short write-up that puts forth the important facts.


On the other hand just because you are truthful that doesn't mean everyone else on the site is being truthful. Always be cautious. Never give out personal information to someone you have just meet or been matched with on an online dating site. Wait until you feel comfortable with this person and feel you really know them before you give out a phone number or work information, for examples. You also should meet this person for the first time in a public place if you decide you might like them enough to do this. It is safer. The same is true when it comes to the photo. Just because the photo is on a profile it doesn't mean it is accurate. It might not be them or it could be an old photo.


Not every match is a connection you want to pursue or continue. That means you will need to end things at some point. First, you need to know you don't have to talk to every match you get. If you look at the profile and feel the person is interested then start a conversation. Otherwise it is okay to decline contact. When it comes to ending things do so kindly and in the form you have been communicating, such as in person if you have meet.
