Maybe you are one person who likes to seek thrills and casual sex? Or maybe you are one person who wishes to devote yourself to one lover? Or maybe you want children after marriage? Regardless of what you want, you need to figure out how do you achieve it.
Dealing with sex is a predictable question in online dating (and even in traditional dating). This is especially when you started to meet that particular person whom you had such an easy way of revealing every aspect of your life to. After your initial meeting, you need to be prepared for the question about having sex. Although the question of sex does not hold a big possibility on the first date, it becomes a practical option after the second or third date. This is when the both of you become so comfortable with each other and everything seems to be working out so well.
This seems hard to believe but people who are so used to typing as a form of communication can achieve a sense of intimacy at an amazing speed. Some online daters seek the thrill of chasing their lovers rather than having the intention to settle down. They like flirting. If you are one person who is like that, remember to put it on your profile as an important reason for online dating.
As much as I do understand that not everyone seeks a "happily ever after" ending, it is careful to display your interest of riding off into the sunset with anybody you wish to. This is because you want to avoid hurting other people. You don't want to be thrown out of the online dating pool for such a reason, correct?
All of us want to find love. And there is absolutely nothing wrong when you decide to find love online - because there are millions of people who have already succeeded!
Why do you want to be left out of the bandwagon? Online dating is really fun! Click on the links to learn more about Online Dating and Dating Advice!

By Lynn Gerino
Do Your Research: Pick the website with the best features
Instant Contact - There's no doubt the instant messenger services provide the best and most accessible way to find people on the internet. However easy and convenient the messengers are they in of themselves don't guarantee that singles are easily found on these services. Enter the online dating services. Most of the better online services provide a method of contact either in a chatroom setting or an instant messenger solution. Some of the better sites allow you to use your favorite instant messenger onsite.
"Send a Rose"- a great way to let someone know that you are interested. Some sites call them "icebreakers" or "kisses" or "winks". Some of the better sites allow you to send multiple icebreaker messages with the ability to block unwanted messages.
Custom Search - search with as many criteria as you like. Choose from a location, sex, sexual preference, age, ethnicity, as well as profession, appearance and even personal qualities. Not many websites allow you do that. Most allow you to search by gender and you spend a lot of your time paging through profiles that you aren't interested in Look for a good advanced search system because it will save you lots of time.
Singles Events - Speed dating parties, traveling agencies for singles and other entertainment events. Great for those who live in a big city, so there are many single people in your area. Only your most top quality sites have the resources to sponsor travel events or speed dating events.

Online Dating - A Passing Trend?
By Jim Mcmenamin
For anyone who thinks that online dating is a passing trend, I just bumped into an article that shows its popularity increasing. The study was based out of Great Britain by the dating agency Parship, and it makes two fantastic claims.
"Nearly eight million Britons used some form of online dating service in 2007, compared to 5.4 million who used a mixture of offline and online services in 2005."
"Over 53 per cent of singles intend to use the internet to meet someone in the future, rising to 65 per cent of 36 to 40 year-olds."
These statistics are incredible, and it shows that people don't attach a stigma to using online services. In fact, these statistics show that your network or pool of available matches is much larger than relying on the traditional method of hoping for a chance encounter.
The increased use of technology is the driving force behind this. People use email, text messaging and instant messaging while at work. We log onto the internet to get almost all of our news, and we use the internet to do research when we're in the market to buy something. People are comfortable using these mediums of communication, and online dating is just another extension of that.
Singles are increasingly aware that using an online dating service will drastically reduce the amount of time it will take to find that someone special. It gives you the benefit of "meeting" someone online without having to go through the time and expense of a traditional date.
You also are able to "meet" many different singles as well. You can have ongoing discussions and/or emails with multiple singles at once. This is not considered "cheating" in online circles. Once you've had a chance to get to know a little bit about a person, you can set about arranging that first face-to-face meeting.
The savings in time is well worth the small investment involved with joining a dating site. For $15-$25 per month, online dating sites offer real value for singles. Whether you are a single mother who only has time for herself once the children are in bed or a working professional who is constantly away on business, online dating provides you the perfect platform for meeting that someone special on your own schedule.
The quotations in this piece came from an article written by Clement James titled Single Brits Looking for Love Online at vnunet.com.
