Myth: Online Dating Does Not Work
You have heard it before and may even say it yourself:
Online dating just doesn’t work.
I would have to agree for the most part that it does not work for everyone. But there are some obvious success stories out there that I would love to hear about. I’m sure others would love to hear about your experiences too.
So if you’re cynical about the process “working” why not just make online dating work for you?
They say the best love happens when you least expect it.
You may be pleasantly surprised when you get something really good when you least expected it. Take online dating for an example!
Just like in the real world you have to narrow your scope while still casting your net wide.
More than anything, you need to get out and forget about dating and work on you. Yes this can be achieved when dating online.
Go out to places that you enjoy, join classes, open your mind.
Read more, read less, listen to music more, don’t listen to music, watch bad TV, don’t watch TV at all.
Volunteer. Switch jobs. Move.
Even just hanging out with your friends will help tremendously and ditching the ones you don't need in your life will be even better.
Another point about friends is to always be on your best behavior.
I met a great guy online but he just couldn't get past his negative issues with women. If he had also turned off the inner dialogue and not made comments about every single person in public, I could have hooked him up with some girlfriends of mine.
You live. You learn.
Work on you first.
You never know, the person you least expected to be your true love may be online—in the least possible place you expected.
