Dr. Dato’s Brief:
Here is another good post on a happy success story where a couple met through an online dating site and some helpful tips for the user.
The couple like so many of us were skeptics and didn’t believe in soul mates or love at first site until they met each other.
One simple trend that I see every time I read about success stories is that both couple went slowly into the relationship. There have been cases where couples clicked right away and were immediately swept away and those cases tend to be rare and normally end up in a broken relationship.
Their tips to successful online dating includes the following;
- Remain anonymous until you feel comfortable
- Get to know each other as much as possible before a meeting
- Never share your financial information
- Meet in a public place

Dating online? Beware of grammar errors! - Online Dating Briefs by Dr. Dato

Dr. Dato’s Brief:
The post highlights the importance of maintaining a profile that is free from grammatical and typo mistakes. In online dating, the first impressions are created by what is written on the profile apart from the photo of course. If the information presented here does not read well then it may fail to impress the reader and they will simply move on.
In my opinion, it is a good idea to look over your dating profile and ask yourself whether someone who read your profile will be impressed by it. Get your friend, family to go over it and ask them for feedback and suggestions. It’s amazing how often we can find mistakes just by going over the written material a few times.
I have seen dreadful use of unstructured sentences, capitalization, pronunciation that makes the profile look like it was written by a young child and this can come across very negatively when read by other users.
To increase your chances of finding that ideal partner, you do not want to overlook this important topic. It is often the case where I have met people who are extremely articulate verbally but their written language is poor and since in online dating the first impressions are created from the written material, it needs to be done right.
bad grammar can reflect badly on your dating profile

Dr. Dato’s Brief:
The stories in this article conveys the message that online dating does indeed work for some couples.
In the first story Aaron who did not like the evening outdoor scene met Kathleen on an online dating site. At first Aaron who as 25 years old at that time had many older women contact him but fortunately he persisted and found Kathleen who is married to now.
The second case involves Jennifer who was too busy with school and a working life and met Mark whose profile indicated that he liked motorcycles, owned a pet bird and was reading about spirituality which interested Jennifer. They emailed each other a few weeks and they clicked, continued dating and got married.
What we can learn from these stories is that filtering through profiles is a must and persistence will eventually pay off.
online dating can work for people who are positive and persistent
