Online Dating? 5 Signs You Should Run Like Hell!

Lisa Quirke — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 15:45:39 +0000

Sometimes the big bad world of online dating can be very confusing. It seems it gets harder and harder to know when to trust a potential date. Use these 5 tips to know when you should pursue a connection or run like hell.

1. He takes no time to get to know you

So you get an email from someone telling you they’re interested in getting to know you. You check out the profile and see potential. Then you reply saying you are interested as well. The next email says, "Great! Let’s meet!"

Whoa Nelly! Slow down there just a bit. Two emails, especially short one or two liner emails, are not enough here. Don’t misunderstand me. I’m not telling you to drag it out for months or even weeks, but do give it a few days at least.

But maybe more importantly, make sure you are having conversations with substance. You should be talking, asking questions, and really getting to know each other before a rushed meet. Otherwise, how do you even know he’s someone you want to know. And vice versa.

I learned this lesson the hard way recently with a date. He had emailed saying hello. I emailed back asking how he was. The very next email asked if I wanted to meet.

I agreed and was in for not only horrible date, but one that ended in text message harassment and physical threats.

Was that a bad call or what? I had no idea what I was getting into and, obviously, I made a bad judgment call. Don’t make the same mistake.

2. He makes you a goddess in 2.5 emails

This guy will woo you with romantic notions and flowery words. He will become "hooked" in record time and will proceed to fill your head with more cornball notions than you’ve ever seen or heard before.

One of the problems here is that, at first blush, it’s easy to get caught up in it all. That part of you that has been single and feeling less than desirable is thinking, "Well, it’s about time!" Back away for awhile and try to look at the conversation objectively.

If he immediately started in with nothing but excessive compliments and talk of finally finding the "one," you have a problem. Not only that but if, in those first few emails, you suddenly have much more in common than it seemed from his profile, he may be telling you what he thinks you want to hear.

One guy I was chatting with didn’t have an occupation listed on his profile. When I suggested we perhaps after getting to know each awhile we might want to exchange phone numbers to continue the conversation, he responded that he didn’t have a phone. After all, he is a teacher too and being one myself, I could empathize with the amount of money teachers don’t make.

Really? Kind of a coincidence isn’t it? And, if we were really both in the same profession, I would have thought he would have mentioned it sooner.

3. He doesn’t respond to what you say

Tired of the massive, faceless, mega-corp online dating web sites that want your credit card before you can contact anyone?

Some people don’t mind paying $20 to $30 month after month… but more and more people are ready for a change.

Free online dating sites are starting to become more popular, in competition with the paid dating sites like PerfectMatch and Match.com. But most of these free dating sites aren’t really much to look at compared to the paid alternatives, and their features are often lacking.

PricelessPartner.com is a different kind of online dating site. In addition to being a totally free online personals site, it’s actually a great community for singles, while providing personals and matchmaking services.

And unlike some other free online dating site, this one is fully featured (and then some!), including sophisticated compatibility calculators, local zip code searches, secure mailing systems, and authorized friendship lists. They also offer free webcam chat between members. Now that’s cool.

They even have offer photo rating so you can check out and vote for your favorite members.

But here’s where it really stands out. PricelessPartner.com was started by a real person, just like you, who was tired of the faceless paid online dating sites, and wanted a real alternative. His name is Glen, and he actually has a profile on the site. Get the full story here.

Another thing that sets PricelessPartner.com apart from other dating sites is their great dating & relationship discussion forums where real people, just like you, share their experiences, answer questions, and more. These forums are a great online personals support community, and they’re definitely worth a visit.

So go check out PricelessPartner.com and see what they have to offer. Then let us know what you think.
