How To Be Your True Self On Dating Apps

First thing's first, People have a different persona online so always be yourself. Never change/ Adapt your personality to someone’s likes and dislikes. What are the chances of you actually ending up liking something you completely detest, I’m guessing not very likely so there's honestly no point in lying. Especially just to get a person to like you. Sometimes the right opposites attract, I personally would not like a someone that has too many things in common / too similar to me

Ask them out, do not wait for them to ask you out. What is the worst that could happen, you get rejected?

That's okay it happens and really you should thank them but mainly yourself for not having your time wasted. So maybe don't talk to someone for several weeks. I understand that there may be some old-fashioned people that will want the other person to ask you out, and that is perfectly fine but sometimes you have to take a leap.

If someone is interested in meeting/you, they will say so. If not, they will not, its honestly that simple. Remember that.

The controversial part, some might say not to double or/and triple text. My opinion is, do it! Even if it comes across as pestering at least they'll know where you stand, and if eventually if they stop replying or only reply to you after double texts, They're just not that into you, But at least you know now and to be honest it's their loss.

Here's one slightly major but not too major issue, people who lie about their height or anything else which might be very trivial or a serious deal breaker to you. I mean it will just be awkward when you meet in person and you are not who you say you are. So, do not lie.

Do people deserve honesty and bold opinions?

Maybe or maybe not. Being honest and open can be quite hard when talking to someone new, especially if you are not an open book. I believe however it is very brave and to speak from your heart and mind. So just be honest, if you do not want to talk to someone tell them, sometimes people deserve explanations. Try to leave ghosting as a last option!

Don't entertain one-word answers, who has time for that? No one.

Another Thing Don't tolerate shit from anybody. If they are rude, Block and Report ASAP.

Always remember to be safe when going on dates from the internet, make sure they are not a catfish and always tell someone where and when you are going on this date.

Who You Should Try To Avoid

People who say they do not know what they are looking for, I think deep down they do know.

Then you get those deadly serious people who say they want to settle down and be in a relationship, yeah that's cool but i hope you are not settling.

Those with quite low standards, especially those who prefer appearance over personality. There is nothing wrong with having a normal level of standards just not too high or low. There must be a good balance.

If you are looking for something serious. Do not go for someone who has just come out from a long term relationship, chances are that they are not looking for anything quite so serious.

When people say they do not have a type, i think that everyone has a type whether they know it or not. personality and appearance.
