Successful Online Dating

As you are searching for the perfect online dating site, please do not fall prey to a very common scam.

"Substandard' online dating sites will do whatever they can to get your membership.

1. You've done your homework. You've reviewed all of the sites that caught your attention.

2. You decided to accept their free trial offer.

3. You put up an attractive photo, and a well thought out profile.

Within 15 minutes you hear the familiar or unfamiliar chime of new mail. It is from a doctor and his profile fits your ideal mate to a "T"! They are new to your area, looking for an available person to spend time with. They think you are a dream come true!…(sigh…)

This book is a favorite of mine.

The authors are psychologists and have worked with the police in establishing profiles of deviant personalities. They've come up with 25 different categories of "Loser," from the Abuser to the Wanderer, with checklists/quizzes for each type. They explain the goals and motives of the guys in these categories, and they don't allow you to explain away the red flags flapping in your face, like "Well, he's just acting like that because he's nervous." Nuh-uh girlfriend, just go down the checklist after a date and it's right there - hellooooo - he's a LOSER.
