LoginEimear was half-way through a year-long dating experiment. Single for 10 years, she decided to spend 20 minutes on dating apps daily and send messages to men she liked the look of. Eimear, who previously worked in fashion e-commerce, started her dating project after a career stint in Hong Kong. Yes, I had some brief flings but nothing serious. But through her twenties Eimear remained resolutely single until she went to work in Hong Kong for a year. After a while, I cottoned on that he was still on a dating app and dating other people. I felt betrayed. But this time, I decided to go on multiple dates every week. I did not invest any emotional energy until I had met my date in the flesh. Sign up to The Hook-Up and we'll slide into your inbox every week with all the latest sex and dating stories from Metro.
As a child of the Internet and confirmed weirdo, imagine my relief when they finally took that last bastion of in-person awkwardness -- dating -- to my laptop instead. I've been using one of the major dating sites, OkCupid, on and off for about five years now. While it has its perks, being a woman on a dating site means immersing yourself in a disgusting cesspool of exposed nerves, unfiltered testosterone, and daily propositions to engage in sex acts so horrifying, I hadn't even heard of them before, and I'm from the Internet. I got the feeling that a lot of men on that site would message literally any woman who had a profile, but the optimist in me wanted to believe that there was a limit.
There used to be a time when men always used to meet women in a bar, or at a party — and they hooked up. Gone are those days; now meeting the girl of your dreams is just a couple of clicks away. We give you some useful tips and guidelines on how to ensure that you succeed in online dating, while navigating the deep seas of fake profiles and expensive websites. Image Credit: Shutterstock.
With the rise of online dating comes the inevitable problem of fake profiles. These profiles are created by people who are not interested in dating but are looking to scam others out of their money or boost their own ego. You and your dating app end up paying for this with your brand reputation and a declining user base.
