How To Tell A Great Relationship
From A Totally Unhealthy One
Online
Dating Netiquette
Here are some general
guidelines to refer to in your online communications.
• Use respectful
tones and wording. Swear words and hurtful remarks are not
good for anyone. If someone presses you, for example, to
share confidential information that you shouldn’t, just say,
“No” and tell the site monitors / webmaster of the forum,
chat room or online dating site, if necessary.
• Look for dating
and other resource websites that list street addresses instead
of post office boxes or nothing at all. Ask friends for referrals.
• Try to avoid
stretching the truth about your accomplishments, job title,
etc. Then if a relationship develops, things will run much
smoother.
• Try to avoid
many 1-word replies and 1-sentence communications. Take some
time to develop your thoughts and share in your paragraphs.
In short, be a friend.
• All capital
letters mean “shouting” and is difficult to read at any length.
Take care and
have fun with your cyber-dating.
