Online dating tips for women - Part 10 - Online Dating Briefs by Dr. Dato

Article Subject: Online dating tips for women - Part 10
Dr. Dato’s Brief:
Say you have found a potential mate online that is worth meeting in person, what to wear, where to go, what to say maybe very confusing at the beginning. The important thing is to look at this date with some positiveness and see it as a learning experience.
In this way, you will feel better prepared for the date, don’t agonize over yourself on how you should behave and what to say, just make sure to ask questions and be very polite and courteous whenever possible. This creates a good impression and allows both persons to be at more ease with each other and not feel awkward around each other. Let the man drive the conversation and be well mannered with your responses but do talk about subjects that are interesting to both of you.
When meeting for a date, not only should you meet in a public place, do let someone like your friend or relative know where you are going just to be on the safe side.
keep your conversations light hearted during the date
– The End –

Online dating tips for women - Part 9 - Online Dating Briefs by Dr. Dato

Article Subject: Online dating tips for women - Part 9
Dr. Dato’s Brief:
I thought I might reflect on one point mentioned by a previous dating coach on getting and acquiring dates through online dating sites. Here advice was to have at least 3-5 dates a week and this can easily fit into a busy schedule providing the encounters are kept brief and held in places like coffee shops.
Although this seems like a marathon run, it is feasible but I would caution that it ventures into the realm of speed dating where little repertoire can be established between the two individuals for the sake of time. Realistically in a relationship between two people, both need to feel comfortable with each other and this can take time and needs to be given ample time.
Unfortunately, setting goals based on going through as many individuals as possible may widen the catch pool but finding someone who is truly compatible with you will require a different mindset. Many people rely on the world of numbers and adhere to hard facts to make their decisions but whoever said that love comes by in numbers and happens when you least expect it!
we maybe be missing the true essence of being by focussing on time

Online dating tips for women - Part 8 - Online Dating Briefs by Dr. Dato
Sunday, March 6th, 2011
Article Subject: Online dating tips for women - Part 8
Dr. Dato’s Brief:
When you decide to meet in person for a date, do not do this over the email or instant messenger, talk to them over the phone and then decide on a public place to meet.
Since its highly likely that you will be living local you should decide to meet at least half-way and in a public place such as a McDonalds, Starbucks or other reputable public establishments. I would recommend on the first date to keep the conversation light and so don’t rely on a dinner date since this may weigh on both individuals in terms of cost and time especially if there is no chemistry between the two.
It has often been found from reading people’s comments on the first date that the conversation over the phone was very different to the actual meeting. As one lady put it, ‘it was a very awkward conversation’ and this is often because some people are poor communicators over the phone than in person and vice versa.
meeting online and in person can be two totally different experiences

Online dating tips for women - Part 7 - Online Dating Briefs by Dr. Dato

Dr. Dato’s Brief:
The tools I was talking about in the last post are any communication tools that are available on the online dating sites such as IM, voice chat and now even video chat. Having just an IM chat can tell you much about this person just like a voice chat which can also be over the phone.
Your brain will be working full time when you chat with them in real-time because you will be assessing and trying to visualize what kind of a person you are speaking to.
Make sure to follow your gut feelings about this person and pay attention to any red-flags that ensue after the conversation. Do not think that you must date or see this person simply because you think there are no other ‘fish’ in the sea….that would be a bad mistake. Keep your head up high and know that there are many other people online, just around the corner, that could be a great catch for you.
communication is key to getting to know someone before you commit

Online dating tips for women - Part 6 - Online Dating Briefs by Dr. Dato
Sunday, March 6th, 2011
Article Subject: Online dating tips for women - Part 6
Dr. Dato’s Brief:
As discussed previously there is more to the message than meets the eye.
Make sure to study the profile carefully to look for discrepancies in dates, events that don’t match up etc. The other important thing that most women have to contend with is whether the man is married or single and they know some men will lie about their current status. Usually women can tell this by the time of the day they decide to chat and other excuses made for not turning up etc. because married persons have commitment to their family.
Before going on a date in person, try to use all the tools available on the website for you to get to know this person well enough to make that first date commitment with them.
before committing to a dinner date, find out as much as possible online
