Online Dating Stories
Some funny and wild stories of online dating adventures.

  • Photos
    Use recent, up to date, quality photos. Coast to Coast Online Dating recommends at least four photos minimum. A facial shot, full body photo (clothed!), a casual dressed photo and also include a photo of yourself in some nice clothes to show that you can be cleaned up when necessary. If you have an interesting hobby, include a photo of yourself in action.
     

  • Dress for Success
    Even if you are a t-shirt and jeans kind of guy you should bump it up a notch if you want more responses to your personal ad.  In addition to your casual dress photo, include a photo of yourself in some Dockers or dress slacks and a decent shirt.  You do not have to go overboard with a tux or tie. It is very important to make a great first impression!

    If you need to, go clothes shopping for your photos and to be prepared for you first date or encounter. Ask a clothing store employee for help, tell them if you prefer to be casual or dressed to kill and if you prefer to dress low key or loud.  They should be able to help you out and make you look good at a reasonable price.
     

  • Groom Yourself
    Trim or shave the beard or goatee, get rid of the unibrow and pluck wild eyebrow hairs. Get rid of the nose hair and ear hair. Clip your fingernails and clean under them with a little brush.  Women notice these things. Teeth whitening may not be a bad idea either, it is becoming much more affordable these days. Of course, if you are into the grunge look than anything goes but nice white teeth will always go over well.
     

  • Be Yourself
    Don't try to be someone you are not. Honesty is best! If you lie or pretend to be someone you are not you will eventually be found out and nothing good will come from it. She will not be able to put her trust in you.
     

  • Ask for Help
    Don't be afraid to ask a trusted friend to proofread your personal ad and profile. They may see qualities in you that they may recommend should be added to your online profile. The may also find errors that you may have overlooked.

Now that you are starting to receive some inquiries to your online personal ad...

Usually you will have to do most of the chasing and initiate the contact but if you followed the steps above you will receive some inquiries from some nice ladies without having to contact them first.

  • Be nice and polite in your responses. If you are not interested, simply do not respond or respond with a "thank you for your interest but I am not interested."  If you properly set up your personal ad and online profile you will avoid receiving e-mails from people that do not meet your requirements.
     

  • I'm not going to tell you what to say but do be honest in your replies. If you have a good sense of humor, use it to your advantage.  Women love a man with a good sense of humor.
     

  • When answering a question, give her an informative answer to her question, not a one liner.
     

  • Don't be selfish and forget about her, ask her questions too.
     

  • Take your time and don't rush the first date or meeting in the first couple of e-mails. Get to know her first and she will become comfortable with you and you with her. It will make for a very easy going first date.

Do's and Don'ts for men on dating sites
by Leif Croonquist

Men, learn how to behave on dating and personals sites.

Being a man and also being the owner of a dating site myself I have to tell all my fellow men that you are chasing all the women away. Most of you anyway. Women are keen on how we behave because most of us all behave the same way on dating sites. Here is a list of DO's and DON'TS to help keep the women at these sites and to help you get some responses.

1) DON'T copy and paste 25 exactly same emails and send them off. Women see right through this and it gets you no-where. Ever wonder why you don't get responses? That's the first reason. DO send individual emails and put some thought into contacting women on these dating sites.
REMEMBER: women get 100 emails a day from all sorts of guys. If your email has no heart then you just go over-looked.

2) DO spell check your email, women are so turned off by a guy that cannot spell it shows you are either stupid or just lazy. The same thing goes for grammar. Take some time to get it right guys and you will get a response.

3) DON'T choose a nickname that has a sexual innuendo (unless you are on an adult dating site). Remember, women usually like men with some class and Roger_69sU shows that you just want a one night stand. Try something more clever.

4) DON'T contact single women if you are married. It is a waste of their time and is an insult. DO read their profile and see if they are interested in married men.

5) DON'T lie. DON'T lie. DON'T lie. Enough said.

6) DO not send women pictures of your "privates". They will ask if they want to see that. DO send them a nice picture that shows your sense of humor or style.

7) DON'T just send an email after you see their picture. DO read their profile first.

8) DON'T harass women that are not interested. This ruins the site for everyone and could very well get you banned from the dating site forever. Many sites now have reporting features for this very reason. DO treat all others on the site as though you were talking in person to them. You would harass them to their face would you?

This is just a small list of some of the incredibly stupid things guys are doing on Internet dating and singles sites. Now of course there are some great guys out there that are honestly looking for a nice date or relationship so any women reading this, just bear with us, we men are slowing catching up and figuring it out.
