Here is some fast growing advice:
1. Take Time and Make Time: Does your online partner get in touch with you regularly? Do you do it too? Ignoring virtual meetings can be considered not nice, so treat each other’s time respectfully. If that respect seems lacking, it could mean that it is time to move on.
2. Communication Needs to “Feel” Right For Both of You: If one of you is becomes too desirous about meeting up, for instance, that can create uncomfortable feelings. Therefore, please, don’t hurry things; learn to take your time and develop trust in each other.
3. Respect Each Other’s Privacy: Don’t send the other person’s email addresses or digital photos to your friends, for example; especially if your online friend emailed you the information in privatley.
4. Share Special Online and Offline Enjoyable Times: when online: send online greeting cards; links to favourite sites to upload digital photos of your favourite pet or car; download music and video clips; post on favourite forums of interest. When offline: if you’re exchanging addresses or post office boxes, send printed greeting cards and postcards and/or small items from your area (like a key chain with your state tree).
5. Share Recipes: People get tired of talking about the weather, so a popular subject to turn to is food. Sharing information about favourite foods and recipes helps to break the ice and even helps create friendships over your culinary skills, or the lack thereof, and tastes. Search your favorite search engine for free recipes to share and take photos of your culinary creations and share them with your date as well.
6. Bidding at Auctions: Ebay auctions sell just about any and everything. So, surf about and enter searches like the dates you were in middle school. Share nostalgic memorabilia of old games and toys and TV shows from when you were young or when your parents or grandparents were small.
Online dating can be an educational and fun experience. So learn more about each other and have fun while youre at it. Take a cyber-stroll down ol’ memory lane together and see what’s cookin’. Tend your online friendship. Water it with care and over time it may sprout and grow.
