Making A Love Connection, Online Dating
Hana Lee

Looking to spice up your life a little, add some romance find
that love connection? Well, caution: fees can be sky high. For
example, AARP Magazine reported that a company called
Gentlepeople charges from $15,000 to $50,000 to hook up you up
with the right person. And FOX News reported that professional
matchmakers across the country are charging up to $15,000 to
pair people up. Instead of paying so much money, try starting
here and see how you do with some of these tips.

ONLINE DATING – Seek out a reputable online dating service.
Begin by asking friends, co-workers and other you may know who
have tried online dating, and see which places they recommend.
Also, head to your favorite search engine and type in “online
dating services” to see which ones come up. Start a journal or
notebook and log your progress. Write out the URLs or website
links and do some research: list fees, rules and regulations,
complete contact information of the site and any other useful
information that you run across. Then begin slow. If something
doesn’t feel right, trust your instincts and STOP.

COMMUNICATION – Go slow and don’t try to share every tidbit of
information about yourself over night. Keep away from subjects
that you don’t agree upon. When communicating via email and
other electronic means (chat rooms, forums, etc.) don’t use all
upper case letters (that’s called “shouting”), slang or your
personal address for safety. Do use a firewall and anti-virus
software to keep your computer safe, too. Key in “online safety
tips” and check out online lists for updated safety tips once a
month to make sure you’re up to date.

FRIENDSHIP – As your friendship grows, check to see if you are
not only getting along pretty well together, but also handling
conflicts well together. If you miss a chat time, for instance,
is that it? Are you in the doghouse for a week? And gradually
decide if you should meet in person. If so, make sure it’s a
safe place out in public and that you are both legal adults.

LOVE GOALS – Gradually develop goals together so you’ll have a
sense of direction. Write them down in a notebook just for the
two of you. And over time, develop them, revise them, cross
them off your list. The idea is to HAVE goals together and work
towards a common good.

So before you fork out thousands of dollars looking for Mr. or
Ms. Right, reach out and try to help yourself first. Go slow
and steady, and use caution. Once you find your own love
connection, you could set up your own matchmaker website!
