You probably know that confidence and self-esteem are essential in the world of dating. Confidence is usually common to your first dates and first phone calls, but it’s also valuable while you’re just browsing profiles and writing about yourself. Self-esteem and confidence can make your profile look more attractive and thus increase your chances of a future first date.
Lack of self-esteem can become your nightmare because it concerns every aspect of life. As for online dating, the first thing people usually view is not what you wrote about yourself but your photo. If it was taken when you were in a bad mood or when you felt awkward and uncomfortable, even though you might think it’s actually good, other people will be able to find out what you actually felt. It’s easy to notice when your smile is not genuine or when you feel at ease. So, try to take pictures on a day you feel good, inspired and comfortable. This is will provide a much better result.
Now, if we speak about your self-description in a profile, try to be imaginative and stand out of the crowd. Write it as if you’re writing to a person you already know and be genuine. If you don’t like cats – write it down, let other people on the site know what you like and what you don’t like. Try to show your personality, don’t think that writing just about who you’re looking for and what you do for a living is enough. There are a lot of people who write the same things, so don’t be one of them.
Even if you actually think you have low self-esteem, try to pay more attention to your advantages, to your unique traits of character and write about your hobbies and life values. You’ll not be able to conceal everything but let only those who’re really interested in you find out more about who you really are.
Raising your confidence and self-esteem is not easy but it can be done. Concentrate on the positive things and try to improve in life. Looking interesting and attractive to the opposite sex will boost your self-esteem and is going to make you a more successful person in life.
