Online Dating and Posting Pictures on Facebook, Twitter and Hi5

Rich Jones
I have had a lot of relationship experience in the past and I also have sisters that belong to social networking websites such as Hi5, Myspace, Facebook and Twitter. These are all great websites where you can find people that you know and look for new people around you and potentially date them in person. This may sound weird if you are new to the concept of online dating but more and more people are doing this and many people are finding love of websites like Plentyoffish and Match.com for example. I find that many people enjoy the paid dating websites because it gets rid of those that are not looking for love as well as the large amount of spammers that are usually found on websites like Craigslist.

I am often asked if it is because to post a picture of yourself with the opposite sex in order to find an online date. The answer to me is simple, and it is yes, you should post as many as you have. Of course, you will need to make sure that you are not kissing the person in the picture because you don't want to give off the idea that you are dating them. However, females and males are creatures of habit and they are more likely to be attracted to a person if they know that this person has already been with the opposite sex in the past. In other words, if you are a guy looking for a female online date then posting pictures that show you with other females would be a good idea because potential online dates would find you more acceptable than they would otherwise. I can tell you that my sisters happen to give more attention to a male with pictures of himself shown with other females than they do if the male is by himself. This is because he is shown as confident and acceptable to others as this will make it easier for him to find an online date. The same goes for males or females, posting a picture with the opposite sex will only help you find an online date. However, you will need to make sure that you are not too close to that person of the opposite sex in the picture as to give someone the impression that you are already taken. You should make yourself available but not too available and you will find a date.
