More and more people are using the online dating sites as a way to meet other people. Although the statistics look very rosy for dating site owners, there are many users who simply do not utilize the full potential of the dating sites and are missing opportunities.

One of the the most prevalent issue is that some users once they have signed up to the dating sites will stop coming back and will have wasted all that time signing up and putting up information on their profile.

I have a theory about this and this is based on many individuals who feel that ’someone’ will come in their way either through online dating, at work or any other chance meeting or event. Although, it’s nice to romanticize such notions and feelings, in reality, the online dating statistics show that the best opportunities open up to people who are pro-active.

In the space of online dating, the greatest success by members are those who actively search for their potential partners on the dating sites they have joined. This means that they put aside some times on a regular basis and search through dating profiles to find suitable matches and start communicating with them.

It is also perhaps why eharmony is so successful as they do all the matches for you and send them right to your home page but even then it will take sparks of effort on the end user. Next time you are on a dating site, don’t feel that a one-time search that did not return anything you liked was going to put you off. If you are still not fully confident, ask yourself, why is a gemstone so delightful to the eye when you see it, because it is unique and rare just like your potential match.

All couples have unique qualities that make them compatible with each other
