1. I don't want to talk about it. I want to figure it out.

2. When you ask me what's on my mind and I say "nothing," I really mean nothing.

7. I like it when other men check you out, but not the other way around.
Yes, this is a double standard.

8. Never utter the words "penis" and "cute" in the same sentence. Even if the penis in question is not mine.

Online dating is a fast growing social networking tool that can open your world to a myriad of relationship possibilities.

Meeting someone new is challenging, especially if you have recently moved, graduated from college, or gone through a divorce. Here are quick tips appropriate for anyone trying their hand at online dating.


1. Know thyself

Are you looking to just spend some time entertaining yourself in chat rooms? Looking for someone to hang out with on the weekends? Seeking a one night stand? Trying to find Mr. or Ms. Right? Determine your goals for online dating and stick to them - otherwise you might hurt the feelings of others or find yourself scraping up the pieces of another failed relationship.

2. Use your network

Online dating sites and chat rooms are standard tools for people of all walks of life looking for love or a little fun. Ask your friends what sites have worked for them in the past. Trust the opinions of those you already know rather than choosing a service at random.

3. Start slow

There is no need to rush into taking the next step with online dating. Spend as much time in the chat room or talking on the phone as you want - make sure you're ready to meet face-to-face to create a good experience for the both of you.

4. Be totally honest

If you want a successful online dating experience, then be truthful. Don't lead people on, and show self respect by disclosing things that are honest. It can be tempting and easy to embellish online, but this does not bode well for the relationship - whether casual or serious.

5. Prioritize your preferences

Online dating can be daunting since it allows you to search through millions of potential matches. Try to limit the number of people you contact and respond to at first. If you focus on just a few people, sincere relationships can be established and nurtured.

6. Don't believe everything you see or read

If he or she sounds too good to be true, it's very possible that you're looking at a bad egg. Take your time getting to know someone. Check their story. If you have arrived to the point where personal information has been revealed, there are ways you can verify details. If a person claims they work at the local community college, you can check the phone directory for their name. Public record is a valuable resource!

7. Remember courtesy in the chat room

Just because you are in a chat room does not mean you should say everything you think or feel. Stop and consider - if this person was sitting across from you in a restaurant, would you say the same thing you just typed? If your words would be uncomfortable in person, then think of something else to say.

8. Online dating services are a good investment

It is a good idea to invest in you! There are many online dating services that charge a membership fee. Considering that people who are willing to pay for a service might be more serious about who they are and what they want - leading to better relationships.

9. Be available

Don't have access to the internet everyday? This might cause problems in the online dating world. Those who try this method of socialization like to think they'll receive quick responses. Be available, consider setting aside a specific time to spend in the chat room, and respond to emails in a timely fashion. Otherwise, you might find your potentials losing interest.

10. Protect yourself

When you've gathered your confidence and found somebody you want to meet face-to-face, remember that you don't know what to expect. Meet in a public place. Drive your own car so that you can maintain control of your environment, and leave if you feel uncomfortable. Even if the first date leads to a second, or third, keep in mind that you've only just met, and there is no need to rush.

According to internet media and market research service Nielsen//NetRatings, more than 1.1 million Australians currently use online dating services in Australia, so it's certainly worth throwing a line in the online pond. Here's how to bait your hook and net a time-poor, desire-rich internet lady.



WINDOW-SHOP

"Hunt around and find a site that suits you," says Shimrit Elisar, author of Everyone's Guide To Online Dating. "Some are set up for single parents, some by location and others by hobby or religion."Another good move is to check out the male-to-female ratio before joining.

"Once you've found a few sites you like the look of, sign up for free trials and get searching," says Elisar. We suggest you don't search for the words "mail", "order" or "bride".

GET A WINGWOMAN

"Browse the profile of women you like and make notes about what they're looking for," says dating coach Peter Heskell. "Then find a female friend or relation you trust and together scan about 20 profile of men around your age and note the mistakes they've made, so you can avoid them."

According to Heskell, the top three mistake men make are choosing an unappealing profile name, sounding too picky and leaving profile sections blank.

CHOOSE GOOD PHOTOS

Post four photos: a head shot, body shot and two action pics that show your personality. If you have a pic of you and your dog, slap it up there. Researchers at St Edward's University in Texas found people are rated more attractive when accompanied by a pet.

WATCH YOUR FINGERS

"Give your spelling a once-over before you hit return," says Jane Hoskyn. "A profile littered with spelling mistakes - or worse, ‘zany' spellings - make you look uneducated." And according to the University of Chicago, good education is a must-have of female internet daters.

"The same goes for profiles full of ‘subtle' sexual references or written all in caps; it's the equivalent of bellowing in her ear." That might work fine in a nightclub, but it doesn't here.

"Lose the ‘honey', ‘sweetie', ‘sugar'," advises Jodie Brittain, CEO of Aussie online dating service . "You hardly know them."

FINDING YOUR MATCH

"When looking at profiles, remember that women will only use photos that are particularly flattering," warns Elisar. "Warning signs are pouty photos, which narrow the face and hype up the cheekbones and anything that appears airbrushed or professionally taken."

To weed out potential bunny boilers, click past anyone whose profile expresses negativity, even if it's about something like a TV show or food.

FIRST CONTACT

Narrow your search results down to 15 winners, then send each a personalised note.

"Don't write generic messages. It doesn't take a genius to realised they're getting spammed," says Elisar.

"Women get more than 10 times as many responses as men on dating sites," says Heskell. "You need to stand out by showing you want to make a connection based on more than just her holiday snaps."

Email about three times a day to build up a rapport. Suggest a date after five to seven days.

THE DATE

"Make sure it's somewhere public," says Elisar. "Don't let the fact that you know her favourite ice-cream flavour blind you to the fact that she's a total stranger.

"Don't have dinner, have a coffee instead, says relationships psychologist Dr Matthew Bambling, of Queensland University of Technology, "The pressure of having to sit through a whole dinner if you realise the person is not what you imagined is not worth it, and you can go your separate ways less awkwardly after a coffee."

THE AFTERMATH

"After fake photos, a woman's biggest complaint is that her e-date doesn't contact her afterwards," says Heskell. "If there was no spark, send a polite email saying you had a great time, but you'd be better as friends."

"If you do like her, send a text of email the next day saying you had a great time and you'd like to see her again, but leave the ball in her court," says Elisar. Use the three message rule (see point 6); you want her to take up your offer, not take out a restraining order.

There is no time like the start of a new year to go out and find love, but we know it can be difficult to figure out where to look first.

Here are the List of the best places to meet your type of man—from the hunky jock to the jet-set hottie!




The hunky jock

Nature lovers may already know how easy it is to strike up a conversation with guys at a ski resort, on a bike trail, or near a rock face. Most people are smiley and open to conversation in these locations. Don’t start up a conversation by mentioning the weather, but rather by asking him for tips on the trail you’re about to trek, directions to get somewhere, or by inviting him into the ski chalet for some hot chocolate.

The artsy guy

Musicians, on the other hand, can be found in concert venues, either on stage or in the crowd. Don’t be afraid to go to concerts alone; this will show your genuine interest in the music. Here’s a trick that’s bound to work: bring him a beer! He’ll be charmed by the gesture and you’ll be able to chit chat about the band on stage and any of the other things you might have in common.

The cultivated cutie

You can also meet him at a theater or at an independent movie screening. We know, it’s not so easy to strike up a conversation in this setting, but nothing’s keeping you from discussing the movie after it’s over.

The jet-set hottie The man of refined taste Keep your eyes (and your attitude) open

When it comes to love, Kathleen Hanover is searching for a needle in a haystack. So to find Mr. Right, she has profiles on at least five online dating sites.

Hanover, who owns a marketing business, figured it's simple math.

"You have to have a big pool of leads to find the percentage who might feel right," said Hanover, 43, of Dayton, Ohio. "I'm looking for a very specific kind of man."

With 1,400 online dating sites, according to research firm Hitwise, many singles are finding it easy to cast a wide net, posting profiles on multiple sites in the hopes of reeling in the one.

Melissa Galt, an interior designer and motivational speaker in Atlanta, was on four sites at once and compared it to having a second full-time job. One site she used was about "quantity and not necessarily quality." Another was better suited to one-night stands.

She subscribed to eHarmony multiple times, but had no luck there and didn't fare much better at Match, where she struck out enough that the site was willing to give her six free months. Since then, Galt has gone out on two dates with someone from Match and said so far, so good.

Neither eHarmony nor Match, two of the leading online dating sites, capture information about how many of their members are on other sites. Match has 15 million active members worldwide. EHarmony has more than 20 million registered users around the world.

Markus Frind, CEO of the free dating site Plentyoffish estimates 15 per cent of the people in the United States who are active on his site are members of other, paid dating sites. About 900,000 people in the North America and the United Kingdom log on each day.

It makes sense to post profiles on more than one site, according to Mark Brooks, editor of Online Personals Watch and an Internet dating consultant.

He compares serial online dating to bar-and nightclub-hopping. Someone may go to a wine bar one night and a "Cheers" bar another night. He said people generally settle on one main site and a smaller niche site.

Jordanna Petkun, 30, a business owner in Half Moon Bay, Calif., said JDate, a site for Jewish singles, seemed to run out of potential matches. So she signed up for OKCupid, but she didn't want to cancel JDate, because "what if the right guy comes along tomorrow?"

Some relationship experts aren't so sure that signing up for multiple sites brings better luck in love.

Michael Somerville, host of the upcoming dating series "Wingman," on the Fine Living Network, wonders how people can genuinely give the time and attention to a potential match on eight different dating sites. If you really want to meet the right person online, you need to work at it, he said.

"I have seen daters who spend more time checking their dating sites than they do dating," said Nicholas Aretakis, author of "Ditching Mr. Wrong: How to End a Bad Relationship and Find Mr. Right."

Jess McCann, a dating coach and author who was once on three sites at the same time, said she was cutting and pasting generic responses to emails for a while. She had two folders: one for the men she wanted to meet and another for the ones she was so-so about. If one of the top prospects disappeared, she bumped up one from the other folder.

She has since met her match - but not online.

Tricia Dodson, 47, of Murrieta, Calif., who has been on four or more sites at the same time, said she printed out the profiles of the men she communicated with and wrote detailed notes on them, such as hobbies, career and "cute things he said."

"This isn't a fail-proof system," said Dodson, who wrote a book about dating. "At one time, I was emailing and talking to six different men via phone and there was a time or two that I got them mixed up."

So just how much is too much?

Aretakis recommends singles sign up for one general site, a second specific site and a third niche dating site. So for example, someone who is Jewish and loves to fish might be on Match, JDate, and Single Fishing Enthusiasts on the Net.

But it's better to be on one site proactively than three passively, said Nancy Slotnick, founder of the love-life management site Cablight.com. She recommends that singles log on and email 10 people a week. Of the 15 hours a week Slotnick recommends spending on finding a mate, she suggests spending no more than three hours on online dating.

After all, there is a real world out there.

Hanover has no time for that. In fact, she's so short on time that in some of her online profiles, she directs potential suitors to her personal website, www.myheroquest.com where she asks prospects to give her five first dates' worth of details about who they are and what they want in a relationship.

"I honestly don't have time or the patience for long, drawn-out, get-to-know-you chit-chat and casual dating," she writes on the home page, adding "frankly, I'd rather get some extra sleep!"

Meeting that special someone for the first time can be tricky. The way you look, behave and communicate all have a huge impact on whether your first date will yield a second. As the saying goes, you only get one chance to make a first impression! So here are a few pointers to help you make your next rendez-vous as successful as possible.

Reassess your expectations. Make sure you are being realistic- your date may very well not be the one. Regardless, that is something that will be confirmed with time, not on your first date. So until then, just focus on enjoying the ride!

Dress to impress. Like it or not, most people judge books by their covers. So make sure you look fabulous! Pick an outfit that makes you feel comfortable and confident but isn’t too revealing. Instead go for the casual, classy look. Jazz up your outfit with some accessories and killer shoes!

Pick a safe and comfortable environment. The ideal meeting placeis somewhere neutral and public. Stay away from movies or other activities that will cause you to miss out on the chance to interact with your date. Try hitting a pool hall or heading to a mini-putt range, going out for coffee is also a great setting for a first date.

Be courteous. Manners say a lot about a person. Punctuality is essential, and if you are running late, give your date a call to let him know. During the date, keep your cell phone on silent mode and answer only urgent calls. Most importantly, say “please” and “thank you”. These little gestures mean a lot; they will show your appreciation towards your date and earn you brownie points.

Keep the conversation light. Things like hobbies, travel, movies, culture, sports, etc. are all suitable topics. Stay away from personal and sensitive matters, there will be plenty of time to talk about your past relationships, family issues and political views in the future. Do your best to avoid interrupting and give him your full attention. Listen actively by asking follow-up questions, showing a genuine interest and being honest in your responses. This will help both of you feel more at ease, allowing you to shake off some of the nerves that come along with first-date territory.

Split the costs…but, offer to pay the bill if you made the invitation. Some dates will insist on picking up the entire tab. If that’s the case, don’t put up too much of a fight. Just make sure to thank them and treat them next time!

Make your intentions clear from the start and avoid playing games. If you are looking for something serious and get the same feed-back from your date, then keep the end of the date PG rated. Give yourselves the luxury of having something to look forward to!

Smile and have a good time! A date is supposed to be more fun than your last job interview. So relax and be yourself. Don’t be afraid to laugh, use your sense of humor or be a little quirky. Be proud of your uniqueness and you are guaranteed to leave your mark. The most important thing is to show your date what an amazing lady you are while having a great time!

And Remember, there are plenty fish in the sea! If you are not enjoying yourself, trust your instinct and don’t hesitate to call it a night. If your date can’t appreciate the wonderful woman you are, don’t waste your time; you are bound to find someone who does.

Can these older woman/younger man relationships last?

There are many relationships succeed with this kind of older woman/younger man scenario.
The media focuses on the age difference, but what really makes or breaks the relationship is how well the couple can form a partnership that works.

Dealing with the generation gap

There are healthy and unhealthy reasons to date someone of a different generation.One
inappropriate motivation for dating a younger person is fear of aging on the older person's part. A younger partner isn't going to reverse the aging process or protect you from old age. Obviously, a man or woman who dates someone as young as his or her children is going to run into some social opposition, but the differences that can cause the biggest problems within the couple's relationship are differing maturity levels.

Have you ever looked at your friends who have long term partners and wondered why you haven't got that in your life? Do you ever wonder when Mr. or Ms. Right will come along, and what the hold up is? Have you ever thought if perhaps, possibly, you're doing something that could be keeping them at bay?
Conventional dating and online dating in the new millennium is vastly different, thanks to the internet, however still very much similar as it has always been for singles. Take a look at some of the more common mistakes singles make when starting to date new people. Perhaps you're making some of these mistakes?

Lets assess your appearance and personal hygiene?
Take some time to get ready for your date. Clean your teeth. Refresh your breath. When you chat with your date, bad breath will surely be a turn off. SHOWER! Men, be sure to use deodorant. Ladies, don’t go overboard on the makeup or perfume. Select a pleasant looking outfit to wear and be sure it is suitable for the date. You wouldn't wear an Armani suit when on a picnic, and you wouldn't wear ug boots to the opera.
Make sure you are well mannered?

When singles are dating and trying to chat there are fewer turn-offs than a date who piles their dinner into his or her mouth, or even swears. Females who make snide remarks and chat about others during conversation is in pretty poor taste, and male singles who don't hold doors open and other basic courtesies will find themselves getting the cold shoulder at the end of the night. “Please,”, “thanks,” and “excuse me” are important phrases to employ; they show your date that you are a respectful person.

Don't chat constantly, let your date have some breathing space. Exposing your life history in day one? Nattering on regarding esoteric knowledge that may not interest him?
Everyone likes to be listened to. Your date is no exception! Whilst you may think the story of your life to be very fascinating, odds on that generally the first couple of dates, that guy probably isn’t all that interested in hearing every detail of your life in high school. That lovely little women most likely wont share your deep and enduring interest with vintage belt buckles, either. Singles should chat openly and ask and each other light hearted questions. Touch on these subjects, no problem, but don’t harp on them to the exclusion of all else, be sure that your date has ample time to talk, as well. These tips always apply whether you are dating in person, or you are in a private chat via an online dating service.

Make sure you pay attention when she is chatting to you?
“Uh huh,” “yep,” “Oh, right…” - these remarks are a death knell to the start of a friendship. This implies that you’re distracted, not giving full attention to your date’s conversation. No one enjoys being on the sidetracks of someone’s thoughts, especially when they’re dating. LISTEN to him. Make remarks that show you are giving her full attention. “Really, your boss said THAT?” “and, where DID you decide to go?”

If you met through an online dating service, do you really look like that picture you uploaded?
This is a HUGE and frequent error many singles make when using online dating and chat rooms. They upload a photo from five years or fifteen Kilograms ago, or have a studio shot done, and wonder why their date looks let down or shocked when they meet for the first date.
We all want to appear at our very best and present the best possible appearance, however uploading out-dated and unrealistic photos is not the answer. Take or find a few photos that truly represent how you look RIGHT NOW. Don’t just fob off what is actually a work of fiction as fact.

Are you posing? Acting arrogant and conceited?
If you consistently pull that large wad of currency out, chat about your amazing achievements in sport, your job, and life, or take too much time removing that pocket compact to maintain your mascara, you’re going down a wrong track. Many singles dislike a flash date. Try to be a little more modest.

Don't be TOO modest!
No one wants to reassure their date all night. “I honestly hope you think I look okay!,” “I’m such a huge clumsy galah!” and similar are NOT good conversation starters, or serious relationship starters. Show a little self-confidence, however don’t be arrogant and conceited about it. It can be a fine line, often, but not that hard to find.

Not always a good idea to focus on sex too quickly?
Sex is the best way to kill a budding romance. Guys, when you try to bed her too quickly, you're sending her the signal that all she is, is just a convenient body to be enjoyed to satisfy your desire, that you’re not really looking for a long term romance. Ladies, even in this new millennium, jumping into bed too quickly tells men that you’re heaps of fun in the sack, but not the sort of women they want to bring home and introduce to Mum and Dad.

When is the right time to go that extra step? That’s difficult to say, however certainly do not try within the first three to five dates. Allow some time to get to know your dating partner before you move onto sex. If the time is right, you will know. Those singles looking for a quickie, try your luck with adult online dating sites, or the local night club or bar.

Putting it in perspective.
With the first couple of dates, the answer is to allow time getting to know them, while giving him or her enough opportunity to realize who you are, also . Chat, listen, and be respectful. Don't forget that the person you are dating is probably just as nervous as yourself, so try to be forgiving if they make mistakes. They will probably be more likely to dismiss your little errors in return!

A first date should be light-hearted, cheerful, and enjoyable. So keep it pleasant and upbeat, you’re so much more likely to have a return date, and who knows? This first date might be the last first date and the start of something special!

Traditional dating, before the internet was popular was a daunting task for singles looking to enter the singles and dating market. Before online dating emerged, asking people out on a date meant risking rejection not to mention losing some self confidence. Once upon a time knowing how and where to begin and which approach to use wasn't easy.

Plucking up the confidence to approach singles in person and asking them on a date could perhaps result in complete disappointment, not to mention the embarrassment if your mates found out, or it may result in excitement and satisfaction if they excepted the offer to go on a date with you.

Thanks to new technology online dating and chat rooms have taken away most of the scare factor singles used to have to contend with. The "online" scene has opened up many options for guys and girls across the whole world. 15 years ago the thought of chatting online to a potential date in a foreign city or country was not heard of nor was it even possible. Online dating and chat rooms have recently made this possible.

What makes this "online" dating method so great is that we can now chat to singles and also friends from any country or state as if they were right next door to us. Dating in cyber space is upon us, and it takes out the whole scare factor of worrying about rejection if your advances don't go the right way. It may also take days or months to locate someone else your attracted to and if you do the rejection from the previous effort is still ringing loudly.

There is an avalanche of online dating services now days. Singles have thousands of profiles to select from. The dating concept now becomes a numbers game, perhaps a law of averages. When you chat to a person you fancy and it doesn't move on to a romantic level, before you realize you will have forgotten them and will have shifted onto the next member.

The Online dating idea just gets better. With all the dating sites after for your membership there is also free online dating. that's right "free". Many webmasters who own the free online dating services make money from advertising on their dating websites so this really is a a win win arrangement between the dating site company and their members. Just like the non paid websites, some "free" sites have chat rooms, video cam chat and singles profile matching.

If you have not tried to meet singles this way you are without doubt limiting your options to mingle and meet members of the opposite gender, and further more, you know they are single and looking so alot of the job is done before you even make contact with other members. Dating for newbie's has never been so easy to access singles of all types.

An excellent way to start is to check out one of the general chat rooms online. You can sit back, watch and participate on the chat session when you feel comfortable. If you click with one of the other singles in the chat room, you can move on to a private "chat room" and chat privately via video cam chat and actually look at the person you are chatting to in now time.

So if this all sounds really exciting - which online dating is, remember it can all be done for free and in the convenience of your home. So get on the band wagon now to begin online dating today and meet real "singles"

If you ever find yourself near your computer instead of being on a date on a Friday night, you may want to look at your alternatives. You may be not go out on the town, but you probably would like to be.

Since you at your computer, you might as well see how it can help you enter the dating scene. The best way to do that is to look into one of the many free online dating services available on the internet. Already, many people are using online dating services to find matches they would have never been able to make without all of the ads out there online. If it works out, you just may have found a portal to new friends and new romances.

As you will quickly realize, the dating services available on the internet have many benefits. It all depends what you want to get out of them. All of the options are on the table when it comes to the type of the relationship you can find online. Don’t worry, whether it’s a date, a fling or a good ol’ booty call you want, you can get it.

Why does online dating work so well? To find out, you need to compare the ways the service you get from the internet is better than the bar scene.

The first benefit is that you can find dating prospects on your own schedule. You can check out the personal ads on these internet sites at night after work or check it for friends in the morning.

Another good thing about online dating is that you can screen the people you want to meet and plan for a meeting out on the town. These initial personal ads will help you discover qualities that the other person can offer and then find out how they fit with the kind of date you’re searching for. Some of those issues may be physical.

Don’t worry about pretense, either. Online personal ads with good details take care of that. The ads tell you what you and your date are interested in, so go ahead and dive into conversation. Don’t feel awkward with your date. If you are using a service, you can be sure to have something in common with the person you have chosen to meet through a free dating service.

After you have found a relationship with someone through an online matchmaking service it’s up to you where you want it to go. The entire system is set up so you can meet someone that has the characteristics you are looking for in a potential date or mate (and that includes what they look like! Don’t be afraid to be specific about white, ebony, latin, tall or short). You can also be specific about the kind a relationship you want (be it long-term, a fling or a booty call).
