10 Online dating safety tips every woman needs to know.
The following online dating safety guidelines are the result of conversations with members of my local police force. In addition, the guidelines were sent to another police officer to ensure that they’re accurate and responsible. Still, these are general guidelines and their focus is primarily on the process leading up to a meeting. Hence, these are not profile writing safety tips (such as – don’t divulge personal information that can be traced to you and jeopardize your privacy and security).… read more →
Online dating and the top 3 reasons why emails matter.
I was listening to a radio show the other day when the host gave some brilliant online dating advice. By brilliant I mean in that “Tommy Lee goes to College” kind of way. He suggested that women should just post pictures and not bother with anything else. In his view, men are visual so there’s no point in spending time on a profile and, above all, emails are pointless. In truth, my observation has been that men don’t like to… read more →
Internet dating safety tips.
This is a paid for blog. However, the company behind the blog is credible (I’ve worked with the people previously). In addition, this is solid advice. Internet Dating is usually a safe way of meeting new people. But there are some basic rules that you should abide by when using dating sites. While these notes generally appeal to women, it can also be worth taking into consideration that men are just as much a target for fraud and other such… read more →
Craft an online dating profile that singles you out.
I write ads. I also write online dating profiles using subtle, but effective ad techniques (check out my online dating profile samples and see for yourself). Here are excerpts from an article I wrote for Betty Confidential where I was asked to provide tips on how to write an online dating profile that works. Want to go from being one of many to being the one? Then do what advertisers do – market yourself. Chicken McNuggets are to die for… read more →
Jennifer Lopez? Is that you dating online?
The other day I was scanning on one of the big online dating sites when who do you think I saw? Fergie! That’s right, Ms Fergalicious herself had a profile up though, surprisingly, with just one picture (a little odd given that she has had countless taken of her). Still, there she was looking for a long-term relationship with men within 100 miles of her zip code. Hummm, wonder if Josh knows? More importantly, I wonder if TMZ is onto… read more →
Online dating and the importance of a great profile.
I was talking to a friend the other day who asked, “How’s your little side business going.” Cringing, I patiently answered, “I have a two-week waiting list. I’m negotiating a speaking engagement in LA. Plus, a PHD who’s written 33 self-help books and was a guest on Oprah has recommended me. In fact, he called me an angel for doing what I do”. “Really? You’re serious?” he said incredulous. “Yes. What’s so hard to believe – that someone called me… read more →
Online dating and Shannon Tweed.
This is worth reposting – I was watching Chelsea Handler a while ago. She was interviewing Gene Simmons. Truth be told, it wasn’t actually an interview. It was a verbal castration. Because of his countless infidelities, she went for his jewels with the ferocity and grip of a pit bull. I loved it! I loathe Gene Simmons. I loathe his tongue, his unnaturally taut, self-satisfied mug, his disposable use of women, his celebrity, his TV show (and his fans who’ve… read more →
Online dating and checking out the competition.
Early in my career, I went for a lunchtime swim with a colleague. As we headed back to our offices she said, “I checked you out and you have a good body”. “You checked me out? Ew…when?” I asked. “When you were showering”, she replied. She turned down the hall and left me standing there mentally polarized. On one hand, I was just told that I had a good body. Awesome! On the other hand, I was also just told… read more →
How to be more successful at online dating.
When I was online dating, I saw the profile of a really good-looking man. Good news – we shared countless interests! He liked to cycle, rollerblade, swim, hike, ski, kayak and, generally, play outside. So did I – what a match (did I mention he was good-looking?). There was just one teeny hitch. He made it very clear – and I mean in no uncertain terms – that he played outside day and night, dusk until dawn, 365 days a… read more →
Online dating and the Shannon Tweed syndrome.
I was watching Chelsea Handler the other day as she interviewed Gene Simmons. Actually, it wasn’t an interview. It was verbal castration. Because of his infidelities, she went for his jewels with the ferocity and grip of a pit bull. I loathe Gene Simmons. I loathe his tongue, his tight, self-satisfied mug, his disposable use of women, his celebrity, his TV show (and his fans who’ve kept that “reality” show on for 6seasons), and the fact that he has a… read more →
