Using Dating Site Features
April 6th, 2009Depending on whether each dating site charges per month or whether they are free, the features they offer as part of their program will also differ.
Most dating sites will allow you to post your profile for free. When you browse their existing profiles and you find a person you might like to contact, most sites will not let you contact them unless you pay.
Contacting the interested person maybe either via a “wink” or an “Instant Messenger” or internal email via the site. Each of these features will be useful in their own right.
A quick and easy method to show your interest to the person you are interested is to send a “wink”‘. This way you don’t have to come up with your own ‘chat up line’ or other creative ways of getting their attention. The dating site will have predefined ‘winks’ setup so you just select one wink you like and then ‘voila!” your desired person will have got your ‘wink’. If they are interested they can “wink” or message you back.
Sometimes it is better to Instant Message a person. If you find that person rarely comes “online” you can watch for them and just say “Hi” .
An internal email message to the interested party is best. You can describe yourself better and plant a better ‘first impression’. “Instant Messages”invitations may be rejected as they don’t know much about you.
If the online dating site you signed up has chat rooms, you can say “Hi” in the chat room and then take the conversation to a private ‘whisper’ mode for more privacy to converse.
