Once interest has been piqued:
Do personalise any email invitations to correspond online
Do make it short and sweet
Don't be afraid to use poetry, preferably rhyming with the potential date's headline
Once contact has been made:
Do ask open questions
Do respond promptly: eagerness is not turn-off
Don't write screeds, but enough to indicate generosity with time
Do introduce humour
Do disclose some personal information
Don't sell yourself as a rare commodity that is worth having
If on a webcam:
Do smile
Do mimic body language
Don't slouch
Do pay genuine compliments, but don't flatter
Don't portray yourself as perfect: it arouses suspicion
Do end every conversation on a positive note/with a positive revelation about yourself
And finally, don't leave it too long before arranging a face to face meeting.|
