Tips for Growing Online Dating Relationships
Just like with regular real-world relationships, online relationships need to be tended and to be allowed to grow over time. Here is some quick growing advice:
1. Take Time and Make Time: Does your online date email you often? Do you do the same? Neglecting virtual meetings can be considered not nice, so treat each other’s time with respect. If it’s lacking, it might mean that it is time to move on.
2. Communication Needs to “Feel” Right For Both of You: If one of you is too hasty about organizing a meeting, for instance, that can create bad feelings. So, please, don’t rush things; just take your time to learn more about each other and engender trust.
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: Online: send online greeting cards; links to favorite places to upload digital photos of your favorite pet; download music and video clips; post on favourite forums of interest. Offline: if you’re exchanging addresses or post office boxes, send printed greeting cards and postcards, small items from your area (like a key chain with your state motto).
5. Share Recipes: People get tired of just discussing the weather, so a very popular subject to take refuge in is food. Sharing information about favourite foods and recipes will break the ice and even help create a friendship; talk about your culinary skills, or the lack thereof, and preferences. Search online for free recipes to share and take photos of your culinary creations and share them with your online date too.
6. Bidding at Auctions: Ebay auctions sell just about any and everything. Therefore, look around and enter searches like the dates you were in middle school. Share cool photos of old games and toys and TV shows from when you were young or when your parents or grandparents were little.
Online dating should be an educational and fun experience. So, go on, take the time to learn more about each other and have fun while youre doing it! Take a cyber-stroll down ol’ memory lane together and see what’s cookin’. Look after your online friendship, water it with care and over time it can sprout and grow.
