After being online for a while and still not getting responses back from girls, it might be time to take another look at your tactics. As you would if you are facing rejection at bars and clubs, you should look again at what you are doing wrong and how you can adjust it. Here are a few tips on how to increase your chances at getting more responses from women online.
Edit your emails and profiles
Make sure your emails and profiles have correct grammar and spelling. Of course if you look like a supermodel, most girls will overlook your mistakes and still respond. Otherwise, make sure that you spell check your words and don’t write in short hand, for example, “hi hru, sup?”
Let her set the pace
She might not want to give out her phone number immediately, so don’t pressure her to and don’t seem disappointed if you don’t get it the first few emails. Be patient and don’t be to hasty to meet. Let her set the pace and let her decide when to meet and give further contact information.
Don’t include sarcasm
Sarcasm is very hard to read in email, so try avoiding it. For example, saying that she must be pretty desperate to contact you is a great way to decrease your chances at receiving another response. You could come across as a being a jerk if you use sarcasm in emails. Save it for the phone conversations and in person.
Avoid being too personal
Try to not get involved with your childhood stories and other secrets until after you get to know her a bit longer. At the same time, don’t ask too personal questions in the first emails. Stick to hobbies and interests and light questions so you can make more room for more personal questions as the relationship blossoms.
Try not sounding desperate
Even if you have not received much success from online dating, avoid sounding desperate by telling her you haven’t met anyone good on this site yet or that she is the fiftieth person you have contacted. Sound confident and desirable in your emails and approach her like she is the first person you have contacted.
