Dates On Social Media Sites And Search Engines In An Attempt To Dig Up
Dirt, Right? Do You Know What Your Internet Footprint Is Saying About
You To Your Potential Relationships?
1¤ THE FRIEND RATIO:
Just How Many Red Flags Could You Possibly Be Raising With Your
Friends And Followers Lists? Maybe More Than You Think. One Of The
Most Accessible Pieces Of Information About You, At Least When It
Comes To The Internet, Is Who Your Friends Are.
Potential Dates Could Be Looking At Your Lists And Forming Some Pretty
Strong Opinions.
If You Look Through A List Of Friends Quickly, One Piece Of
Information Will Be Absorbed Right Away: The Ratio Of Men To Women On
The List. Women Who Have Lots Of Male Friends Can Be Intimidating To
Potential Dates.
They're Going To Wonder Who All These Guys Are, What The Relationship
Is, And Possibly Feel Threatened. The Same Goes For Women Who Are
Checking Out Men On Social Media. When They See A Lot Of Women On The
List, They're Going To Be Curious And More Cautious.
2¤ THE INFO YOU REVEAL:
Social Media Is A Good Way To Keep In Touch And Potentially Connect
With The Personalities You Enjoy, But It's Also Filled With Hot-Buton
Topics. Many People Use Social Sites To Follow The Political And
Social Causes That Matter To Them.
Some Even Use It As A Soapbox To Tout Their Pet Interests. Strong
Opinions Can Be Very Off-Putting To Potential Dates, Who May Not
Wholeheartedly Agree With Every Issue.
It Isn't Ideal To Find A Mate Who Agrees With You On Every Single
Issue, And It's Always Better To Keep An Open Mind. When You Bombard A
Potential Mate With Your Political Interests, You Could Be Turning
Them Off And Pushing Them Away Before You Even Have A Chance To Find
Common Ground.
3¤ THE REQUESTS YOU MAKE:
The Two Of You Have Been Dating For A Week, And It's Going Well. But
Before You Comb Through Their Friends List And Bombard All Of Their
Family Members And Accquaintance With Requests, Stop AnD Think. Its
Not Appropriate To Friend Their Siblings, Parents And High School
Buddies Unless You Expressly Ask Permission To Do So.
Do It Behind Your Mate's Back Or Without Their Agreement, And You
Could Wind Up Looking Like A Stalker. Even When Your Intentions Are
Totally Innocent, It's Going To Look Suspicious If Suddenly You're
Friending All Of Their Friends. The Person You're Dating Will Feel
That You're Trying To Keep Tabs On Them, And This Could Raise All
Sorts Of Trust Issues.
4¤ THE PHOTOS YOU SHARE:
Yes You Are Well Endowed With Great Hips, Thighs And Boobs, But That
Doesn't Mean You Should Share It With The World By Exposing Them In
Halves Or Full. The Stuff You Reveal In Your Photos May Be Giving Off
The Wrong Impression About What Type Of Person You Are. Show Off A Lot
Of Skin, And Your Potential Mate Could Become Jealous. They Could Lose
Respect For You. They Could Even Show Your Photos To Other People, Or
Re-Publish Them And Share Them With The World, When You Were Only
Willing To Share The Pics With A Select Few.
Once You Put Something On The Internet, Anyone Can Get To It And
Everyone Will Form Opinions About It.
Remember That Before You Show Off That Shape.
5¤ THE NEUTRALITY GAME:
Take Care In How You Present Yourself On Social Media Sites. You Don't
Want To Reveal Too Much. That Goofy Picture Of You That You Love Where
You're Passed Out On The Couch May Spark Great Memories For You, But
For A Potential Date It Can Be A Big Red Flag. You May Never Get The
Chance To Explain That Such Behaviour Is Well In The Past.
Show Your Personality Online, But Show The Filtered Version. You Want
To Find A Mate Who Loves You For Who You Really Are, And You Will Have
Many Opportunities To Reveal Your Many Layers. You Don't Have To Rush
To Show All Your Facets Off On The Internet.
