You have probably read a lot about guys finding girls on Facebook and actually taking them out. You probably thought that this was something out of the movies because it could never happen. The fact is that if you knew how you could make it happen it will happen, there are thousands of men around the world who find girls on Facebook and take them out on a date successfully. But the trick here is to be honest and original simply because girls get tons of ‘add requests’ on their Facebook profile not to mention messages that range from outrageous to spam. If you have found someone on Facebook and have been meaning to ask her out here are a few ideas on how to accomplish that.

Become Acquainted With The Like Button

Now this technique will work if you are already on the girl’s friends list and have been chatting with her for a while. The first step prior to asking her out is to start liking her statuses and her photographs. This should become your mantra ‘you post and I like regardless of who does or doesn’t’ of course you shouldn’t tell this to her but it should be in the back of your mind. The next step is to start commenting on her photographs by saying stuff such as ‘looking beautiful’, ‘great pic’ etc. This should give her the hint but do not ask her out just yet. The next step should be to post messages on her wall, doing small things she likes etc.

Use the Chat Option

Facebook has a great chat option which you should use to chat with her every day. The objective of your chat should be get to know her and come across as a great guy. At this point you should just tell her that you like everything about her. In the beginning it is important to maintain a bit of distance which also creates curiosity. You should flirt with her every now and then but hold on to yourself since many men can go overboard with this. Once you feel she is comfortable with almost everything you say or do you should ask her out.

Give Her Attention

All women want attention and if you can give this to her on Facebook then you’ve got her hooked. The best way to do this is to tag her in photographs, post little snippets everyday and tag her in those, invite her to your group etc. Do almost anything to make her feel as if you are focused on her but obviously not stalking her.

Exercise – Devise A Game Plan

In this exercise you are going to write down how you can talk with that girl you like on Facebook. Find and post interesting stuff, post pictures, comment on her statuses, post on her wall etc. You need to come up with unique messages and stuff to say, make sure they are interesting and have more to do with her than it does with you.

1. Be Specific In Your Online Dating Profile

If you do not want to lose time be as specific as you can about you while filling up your personal profile. Think about this part as if you were writing an advert for yourself. Describe yourself clearly. For example you might say: “I’m a guy who likes cooking but also enjoys going out and spending time with friends”.

2. Be Unique In Your Online Profile

You might say: “I’m looking for someone who is not afraid of messing up the kitchen while preparing evening dinner for two” or “I’m looking for someone who is not afraid of crickets’ chirping when camping at night under the summer sky”. This will give you a unique edge and introduce a bit of humour into your profile. It will also show the other person that you have great vocabulary and reveal that you like camping. Remember you are writing an ad for yourself and you want to be unique and have something specific the person on the other side will remember you by.

3. Double-Check Your Grammar And Spelling

Always do a grammar and spell check. Would you date someone who does not know how to write properly? If not, why would they?

4. Your Age

It is very easy to create a profile of somebody who you would like to be, but the truth is that one day, if you want to meet the other person face to face, they will actually see how you look like or how old you are. I would say that it can be forgivable +/- 3 years in your profile, but more than a decade is a bit of exaggeration.

5. Your Physical Description And Your Picture

The best advice I could give is to look into the mirror and describe what you see. If you are a bit overweight, be honest and you may then say “I’m a bit overweight and feel good with it”.

As for the picture, use the recent photo. So many people are disappointed after the actual first date. I hear my friends saying: “she did not look like her profile picture, he was too short, too fat etc”. In that instance you find that you may have lost few months of your time chatting online with a stranger who is untruthful to yourself. Trust me, feeling disappointed is not a good feeling at all and I am sure you know what I am talking about. Also, unless you are looking for a one-night stand, keep your shirt on when taking your picture.

Even though it may seem difficult to find the right person online, there are more and more people finding their life partner thanks to the Internet. If you are truthful from the beginning, your chances of meeting and sharing your life with another person will increase dramatically.

Remember, there are many normal, sincere people just like you looking for a relationship online (I know – because I met one!). Happy fishing!

So you have decided that you would like a new relationship and have been considering online dating for some time now, but you are unwilling to give it a go as you are unsure how it works or just don’t understand it.

One person might tell you to stay away from online dating because of all the scams and stories that they have heard about. Then someone else will tell you how fantastic online dating is and why you need to start right away, as they found the love of their life.

Who on earth should you listen to?

The fact of the matter is no one can predict how your online dating experience will pan out. It may turn out to be one of the best choices you ever made in your life or it could turn out to be as much of a frustration as any other dating method you have tried.

Let us look why internet dating is worth considering.

Several studies have stated that around 3% of successful partnerships have come about by people using online dating websites. Although 3% might not sound that high, when you look at the millions of people actually dating online then it becomes clear that online dating has worked for a lot of people.

Online dating can help you to easily and quickly connect with potentially hundreds of other singles in your area all from the comfort of you own home. What other dating method can offer these kind of introductions that fast, and with people who live just around the corner from you.

What have you got to lose?

Almost all of us all these days have met somebody or at least knows of a couple who have met online. So if it can work for them there is no reason why it can’t work for you.

Online dating sites can help you to identify the kind of man, woman or relationship you are interested in, be it friendship, a casual romance or maybe marriage. By being precise and upfront in your profile and informing people just what you are searching for in a partner, you will be surprised at the number of people who will contact you.

Whether or not you truly find real love online is actually going to be down to you. It has worked for many people, so try not to listen to all the false talk and scare stories out there until you have tried it out for yourself. You never know, it might just be the best decision you ever made.
