So
you've joined PenPalsPlanet's online dating service and now
you want to contact women or men online... How to go about
it?
The
first thing you should know when making contact through an
online dating service is that you can contact several women
or men at the same time. Clearly, by doing so, you will more
quickly find the woman or man you are looking for. However,
you need to keep this manageable. It's no good contacting
a large number of women or men, sending each of them the exact
same message and losing track of who has replied and who hasn't.
If you do this, the people you contact will quickly
lose interest in you. By far the best approach when
contacting singles online is to begin by making a handful
of contacts and tailoring each email you send on an
individual basis.
Contact Point for Local Singles Online
for Dating?
Whether you want a contact point for local singles
or are looking further afield, how do you choose which
singles to contact? Most people, when meeting in the
offline world, go initially on appearance. It is no
different on the net. People look initially at the photos
accompanying dating profiles. But you should make this
a starting point only in your search for the ideal woman
or man. Read beyond initial impressions, try to find
a point of similarity with yourself, something you have
in common, a shared hobby for instance.
You may not have much to go on when first contacting
someone, as the online dating profiles are necessarily
brief. This is why you need to contact a few women or
men to begin with.

Now we
must face the gritty question of what do you say when making
that first contact with a stranger.
How
to email a woman or man at a free or paid online dating agency
A
good approach is to send a short to medium length message
to your contact which is friendly, to the point, and not over-familiar.
You should try to take the approach you might with a new work
colleague. Be friendly of course, and at all costs avoid anything
that borders on lewd comments! Pick up on something in the
woman or man's online profile to ask about, but keep it light
and casual -- you don't want to come across as if you are
interrogating!
On
the other hand, if you don't ask any questions you may not
get any answers. Asking a question in an email prompts the
other person to answer and so to reply. Also tell the other
person about your own interests and hobbies, giving then something
to talk about in a reply -- and so the online conversation
will carry on.
Be
careful, especially in that first contact, when commenting
on the woman or man's picture-- it's okay to say the other
person looks attractive or nice, but don't get too personal.
You do not want to give the impression that you are only interested
in the other person for the way they look. In any case, if
you are considering dating this man or woman then you are
not only interested in how they look anyway are you? Relationships
begin with mutual physical attraction then go on to deepen
through a meeting of minds and personalities.
When
making first contact with a woman or man who attracts you
online do not fill your initial email with a glowing description
of yourself and how wonderful you are. You will easily come
across as self-centred. Be warm, friendly, brief, interested
in the other person, and not too personal. Humour is fine
as long as it is not over-done. You do not want to sound so
wacky that you confuse and put off your potential date. Your
approach should be aiming to start a new friendship, rather
than a romantic encounter.
If
you don't get a reply the first time you email the woman or
man who attracted you in the online profiles, try again with
a different approach. You might want to think about how you
would react to your own email - put yourself in the other's
shoes. If your second email does not elicit a reply, move
on to somebody else. But if you do get a reply, try to respond
quickly -- nobody likes to be left hanging on, wondering,
especially when meeting people for the first time.
In
this first and in subsequent emails don't say anything that
you might find embarrassing later if you meet the friends
of the woman or man you are contacting -- often people share
initial emails with their friends.
Once
a conversation gets going, do not be tempted to believe everything
that the other person says. People are not always genuine.
This brings us on to the question of online safety. Never
give out your personal contact details or personal information.
Keep to the emailing system in your PenPalsPlanet
membership.
