Don't show up with personal information like email-address and phone-number. Likely as not you want to know more about your date through correspondence using the dating-site. If you receive an unpleasant reply, you should take no notice of the sender. At worst write an email to the owner of the website.
Don't lie or exaggerate when you try to describe yourself. Don't write anything about your defeats and bad experiences. Emphasize your good qualities. Your first date, when you decide to meet each other, should occur carefully and gradually.
Realize that some men make a copy of their message for distribution among several women. The more specific you are, describing what you want, the fewer replies. But it is an increasing chance that you will meet someone that suit you.
Be patient. It may take a lot of time to find your dream-partner - also at the cyberspace. But one day it may come true.
