| I have received a number of emails asking how to attract someone for a relationship and what they are doing wrong. There is no 'right' or 'wrong' way to be for someone to be wanted; there is however things that you can do for yourself to make it a little easier to be seen as someone who is open and ready for a relationship. 1. Self-Appreciation - Have you just gotten out of a relationship? Maybe your circle of friends are starting to settle down. Whatever the reason is that you want to date someone you need to look at who you are and be sure that you are ready to begin a relationship with someone. Ask yourself why you want to have a boyfriend or girlfriend. If the answer is that you don't feel complete without a partner, that you need a partner to feel fulfilled or that you don't want to be alone at your age...it is time to step back and re-evaluate who you are and focus on developing your confidence and self-love before you will be able to make a relationship work with someone else. Once you are happy in your own skin and self-fulfilled you will attract the Matches you deserve not the ones you settle for. 2. Be Honest - Be honest in who you are and what you are looking for in a relationship from the beginning. The those little white lies that people tell always end up becoming larger lies as you try to cover one up after another. If you are separated and want casual dating - tell the other person so that they may decide for themselves whether that is something they want to pursue. Be truthful about children, marital status and your occupation - the truth always comes out at some point and it is best to find out before there are feelings involved. 3. Take the Initiative - Whether you get butterflies when you see your local coffee clerk or from the profile you've seen on-line take a deep breath and make the first contact. Flirting is a natural and easy way to let someone know that you are interested and iMatchup makes it easy by having pre-made Flirts ready to send for you, which is not to say you can't come up with your own Flirt message. 4. Don't Limit Yourself - There is nothing wrong with only wanting to drink a certain kind of coffee, drive a certain car but when it comes to dating if you only look to date a certain 'model' then you are missing out on what could be your chance for true happiness. There is nothing wrong with having preferences however when you open yourself up to the idea of a Match outside of your local area, who isn't a the tall, blonde bikini model you open yourself up to a whole other world of possibilities. Keep your preferences but don't pass on someone unless you get to know them first. Love happens at the most unexpected time with the most unexpected people. 5. Network - Just as you network your friends, colleagues and family for work you can call on them to 'Network' for you on your on line dating quest. It's much easier to check someone out on a dating site to see if you have common interests, likes and an attraction then it is to sit through a 'set-up' date by your mom. Just because your sister's idea of a 'perfect match' for you is a miss at least you can find out on-line without having to fake being sick to end a date early. Give your username on iMatchup out to your friends and family and let the dating begin. Love Vixen and Match Maven |
