Facing Rejection
in Online Dating
By Erick Shipmon
You've chosen several photos from your online
dating service and sent out your personal
online profile. Now you are just waiting for
the replies. You wait for a few days, and
nothing. You start to feel as though you should
go back to the bars, at least the rejection
there is face to face. What went wrong?
First of all, these people don't know you,
so you can't realistically take a non answer
personally. Very often users of online dating
services have a stack of profiles next to
their PC and take their time returning emails,
so don't get discouraged.
The worst mistake you can make is
contacting people over and over. This
can turn them off and give the impression
that you are a stalker, some dating services
online will cancel your membership or
censure you if they receive reports of
continuous attempts to contact ( as well
they should. Remember, they don't know
your motives any more than you know anyone
else's when online.)
Another online dating tip is to contact
as many people that have an interesting
profile as possible. If you only contact
two or three, and then wait weeks for
a reply, of course you're going to get
frustrated, but if you send contact emails
to 20 different people, chances are you
will receive several replies. Again, do
not take it personally! There are over
100 free online dating sites to choose
from, and those are just the free ones.
If you are continuously getting rejection
emails (I do not mean no replies, but
rather actual rejections) maybe the problem
is your profile. Recheck it and see what
it says about you. Is it honest and sincere?
Did you send your best picture? Does it
sound too needy or too non committal?
Many dating services online provide help
with putting together the perfect profile,
and this service is usually free, so take
advantage of the sites help windows, and
keep trying!
