Online dating services have changed dramatically over the years. Todays online dating services provide opportunities for people of all ages, religion, ethnic groups and geographic locations.
The problem that most singles face is not having access to other singles, and this was certainly the case for me, so many of my friends were already in happy relationships it was hard for me to meet single people. Of course I was sceptical at first, as there was still some stigma attached to online dating, however I believe that it has become more and more normal over the past year or so. For this reason, online dating is a phenomenal solution that provides access to people efficiently, conveniently and affordably.
With todays technology, you have the options to ensure your dating experience is fun and successful. If you are considering taking your first step into the world of online dating, the following tips will help you to get started.
1. Arrange to meet your date in a public place where there are plenty of other people around. Don't allow your date to pick you up from your home, at this point you shouldn't have disclosed your address anyway.
2. It's always respectful for the man to offer to pay the bill. However, it may not be a bad idea to go halves, that way your date won't expect anything in return.
3. The biggest obstacle to a person's judgement when on a date, is alcohol. Not only does it affect your judgement, but alcohol also lessens your inhibitions. It is better to either just stick to one glass or try and avoid alcohol completely on your first date.
4. Never assume that your date is safe. It's important to never let your guard down on a first date. Always tell friends or family where you are meeting your date, and arrange to ring someone when you are home safe.
5. Go with your gut instincts. If something doesn't feel right, then it probably isn't. Make your excuses and leave. Also, don't sleep with someone on at least the first three dates. Save topics like sex toys, adult matters, etc., until at least the 4th or 5th date.
6. If you are going to exchange numbers at the end of the date, then give him your mobile number and not your home land line number.
7. No matter how much fun you may be having on your first date, always remain alert and remember to have your mobile phone with you, just in case.
8. Dating safely is very important. Remember that in the early stages of dating you are still getting to know someone that you probably know very little about. By creating a safe enviroment, you're creating a better situation for yourself.
