You must have noticed that rather luscious guy/girl on you dating site? The combination of a good picture and an interesting profile is positively captivating. So what to do to get that date? Don’t forget that people expect to be approached on a dating site; it is a socially interactive environment. Key to catching someone’s attention is to have a bit of a flirt. If it’s a lady making the running, men are usually so delighted that you can say almost anything! (Well within reason)

Hi, I’m looking for a friendly face to chat to and yours fits the bill. Words and humour are really important on a dating site. Try to tailor your advance to the style of ad that they’ve written and use similar themes. It’s really simple, if she has asked for a sun loving beach bum that enjoys building sandcastles and sky diving, then your response could be: sun tan lotion, bucket and spade, plus spare parachute. Corny I know but really effective. It works for two reasons, (a) you have made the effort to read the profile and (b) you have added humour to the mix, so brownie points for both.  To reveal something personal about yourself allows the person you are chatting to respond in kind. This will give you something to chat about on your first date. . Often leading to a second date ad infinitum……..
