Initiate Contact
Don’t just sit on the sidelines and wait for someone to contact you. Take the initiative and make the first move! If you’re a woman, don’t be afraid to contact a man. Throw old rules out of the window; men are flattered when you contact them so don’t hesitate. Reach out to multiple people so you’re not putting all of your hopes on one person. Communicate with people who peak your interest, and someone is bound to reciprocate. A good way to create the opportunity for conversation is to ask questions. This will open up dialogue between you two.
Log On
Log on multiple times a day to keep your profile active. Three times a day can do wonders. A good way to remember is to log in during breakfast, lunch and dinner. The more active you are online, the better the chances someone will see your profile and be interested. Also, pay attention to who has been looking at your profile. Reach out them if you feel they could be a match. Chances are you are still top-of-mind and an email from you would be welcomed!
Now it’s time for you to get out there! The person of your dreams is waiting for you and with these tips you are that much closer to finding them.
