Dating Tips Men

Try to find out how serious she is about the person she's dating. Are they dating casually? Or are they in an exclusive relationship? The easiest way to find out is to be direct: "Do you have a boyfriend?" or "Are you single?" If she says she doesn't have a boyfriend, or that she is single, just ask her out normally. Just because she's gone on a few dates with someone doesn't mean she can't go on a date with someone else.

If she's in a relationship, one thing you can do is be bold and ask her if she's happy. Or, ask her if she loves him. If you sense any hesitation, ask her out, making sure to let her know you won't overstep boundaries:

Another approach is to give her your contact information, telling her it's just in case she becomes single. Skip straight to giving her a way to contact you: "Here's my number. If things don't work out between you and that guy, call me and I'll take you out to dinner." If she's loyal to her relationship, or simply not interested, she'll throw your contact information away. But if she's interested, and her relationship is on the rocks, she might get in touch after they break up and you've done no harm just trying.

Take great care to steer clear of the friend zone. Just because she's in a relationship doesn't mean you can't make your romantic intentions clear, or else you might become the brotherly shoulder she cries on whenever there's trouble in paradise. Continue to remind her that you want to date her, you don't just want to be her friend (that is, you don't want to wait in the wings). And if she seems to be stringing you along, for example, she says she wants you around, but she stays with her boyfriend nonetheless, move on. Unless you're content being someone's backup, don't put yourself in line for being hurt; realize that even if they do break up down the track, she might decide "I don't want to ruin our friendship" or she just might want to be single for a while.

Avoid becoming a side dish. If she seems to really like you, demand that she break off the relationship before you do anything with her. If she cheats on him with you, not only is that pretty low on your part, but that brings her entire trustworthiness into question. And if she seems willing to cheat on her boyfriend, you might want to reconsider whether you want to be in a relationship with someone who's ready and willing to violate someone's trust, because next time it could be you at the receiving end of her unfaithfulness.

Safe Online Dating Tips women

Internet dating can lead to finding your love, and many times leads to marriage. You can find a friend, or it might lead to disaster and even death. It is extremely important to heed the "Red Flags" that pop up in your mind when you sense or hear something that just does not seem right about the person on the other end. You should realize that they may not always be the person that they present over email. Be aware! Be wary! Be alert! Be safe!

Find a dating site. There are many out there, with more new ones starting up often. Find a site that is reputable. Stay away from the sleazy sites. It would be good to find a site that specializes in your interests such as gay dating, black dating, and even specialized religious sites.
Remember that most of the sites will offer you a free trial period. If they ask for your credit card, be assured they will charge you after that trial period 'unless' you make sure you cancel prior to that date
Although dating is not rocket science, the experience sometimes feels like science fiction. Often, unrealistic expectations lead to needless dating drama. The following steps provide actual ways to make dating a pleasant experience for both of you.

Register with honest information about yourself. Do not lie about your weight and interests, or show a photo of you when you were much younger. After all, the idea of Internet dating is to actually meet in person eventually.

Remember never to give out personal information. No telephone number, no address, no last name. If things go well, you can do this later.
Make sure that when you connect with someone to keep the conversation on email for awhile. Create a new email address for yourself to use only for dating sites. Do not give out your personal Internet address.
Try to find out as much as possible about the other person, via email, so you can get a sense of what he is like. With practice, you can tell a lot about the other person from how he responds to questions, and what he says on email.
Do not give out your phone number; instead, ask for his. Call him, but make sure you use the phone blocker if you use your home phone. If you have a cell phone, use that! If he refuses to give you his phone number, be wary. He may be married or have ulterior motives, but he may be just as wary as you are. Instead of talking on the phone, suggest a meeting in a neutral place.
Be wary if he asks if you have a web cam. Most of the time, men with web cams want to show themselves naked.
When you talk to him on the telephone, and, after a bit of chit chat, he suddenly starts talking about sexual things, or asks you what you are wearing, hang up
General Tips :

Stop complaining. The good ones are not all taken. If they were, you would be sipping mai tais on a beach with your beloved right now.

Be less critical. Are super models breaking down your door begging you for attention? Are moguls whisking you away to Spain for tapas? No? Perhaps, it's time to accept a date simply because someone was lovely enough to ask you.

Use your manners. Please don't be rude. Saying please and thank you will make moms proud and endear you to your date. Promptly returning phone calls, whether or not you plan to accept an invitation, is appropriate and respectful. "Coy" is for the fish.

Step outside of your box. Insanity is doing the same thing twice and expecting a different result. In other words, every time you tick off your list of "must haves and can't dos" you limit yourself to dating similar people. Has that worked for you so far?

Have original date ideas at your disposal. These can include physically active dates (such as mountain biking or rock climbing) to creative dates (such as going to a pottery or ballroom dancing class).

Have fun! Even if you're 10 minutes into the worst date ever, a sense of humor goes a long way. Every hideous detail can be used later to regale your friends with laughter.
