Have you considered signing up to online dating sites, but wouldn’t know where to start? Worried you\u2019ll make a fool of yourself? Don\u2019t worry! Here are our top tips to help you get online with confidence.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The rules for flirting online really are not any different to offline, if anything looking for love online can be even easier! <\/span>However, it\u2019s easy to accidentally put your foot in it and lose to man of your dreams, so here\u2019s some help with securing your next date:<\/span><\/p>\n

Vary your photos<\/b><\/h4>\n

This can be a real problem for guys, as it can make them feel as if you don\u2019t lay all of your cards on the table then it can be more difficult to build up trust – the foundation of any relationship. Pictures of only half your face, or only your breasts or bum, can actually turn men off as it looks like you\u2019re only in it for the sex. Of course, with Gleeden we have our secure private albums which you can grant access to once you\u2019ve got to know someone a little better.<\/span><\/p>\n

Having only one or two photos can also count against you – vary things up a bit and show the world what you have to offer! Swap between a selfie, to a full length picture, to you in a group – have fun with it!<\/span><\/p>\n

Get out and about<\/b><\/h4>\n

Try not to make all your photos selfies in your bedroom, even if you do look banging! Take photos while you\u2019re out and about to showcase your passions and personality. Whether you’re hiking, wine tasting, or in the middle of a yoga session, action shots are a lot more interesting and give men a conversation starter for when they make contact.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ask generic questions<\/b><\/h4>\n

Avoid ANY questions that can be answered with a yes or a no – that\u2019s not a good way to get to know someone, and things will quickly fizzle out. Instead of asking if they\u2019ve been on holiday recently, ask about their favourite place, or where they would like to go in the future. Be attentive and relevant, and always imagine how you would answer the question. If it\u2019s a yes or a no, then rephrase it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t make everything sexual<\/b><\/h4>\n

Many people are using dating apps to hook up with men and women and then never call them again. This isn\u2019t Gleeden\u2019s aim; we want to help you build a lasting relationship, letting you experience the attentiveness and care that you once had. Throwing yourself at the first person to message you won\u2019t help you find love, and playing things slowly can be the better choice by far.<\/span><\/p>\n

To this end, making all your conversations sexual, or suggestive, can hinder your chances – if a guy thinks that all you talk about is sex, then that\u2019s all he will expect from you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep the conversation going<\/b><\/h4>\n

It can be tempting to play the busy women, and deliberately screen your messages to appear more mysterious and elusive. But how would you like it if you were in his shoes? It\u2019s not the 2000\u2019s any more, and there is no excuse not to quickly shoot back a text or message. If you\u2019re busy, just let them know – if they can\u2019t understand that then they\u2019re probably not right for you!<\/span><\/p>\n

Putting too many expectations on dating sites<\/b><\/h4>\n

It\u2019s easy to think that, with about 250,000 people signed up for Gleeden in the UK, you will easily find someone straight away. However much of online dating can be about patience – especially if you\u2019re waiting for your \u2018one\u2019. There is one thing we can promise for sure though: you won\u2019t find Mr Right unless you get looking!<\/span><\/p>\n
