Originality, timeliness, depth and authenticity with early stages of of online communications play a role in developing the potential for love through online dating experiences.

Let us take a closer look at these factors.

Originality, Timeliness and Depth Counts

If you want to create an online interaction with the potential of developing a loving relationship off the computer, take the the time to individualize introductions, respond in a timely way and with depth.

Let's face it. Many people exhibit a "cast the net wide and far " approach to online matching services. They send out the same introduction to a variety of people and answer all replies with a brief answer that is vague.

Steve is a member of a popular online dating service. He sends Beth an introduction email. She sends a well developed response expressing that the interest is mutual.

Steve waits several days then writes, "Tell me more about you." He does not comment on anything specific that Beth has shared.

Beth writes back, "No thanks." Steve is puzzled by her response. Yet, it makes sense. Beth probably receives similar responses from many people. Thus, Steve does not stand out from the crowd.

Express Authenticity

Relationships that begin online and blossom into love have authenticity as a primary characteristic.

There are many single, unattached individuals online who say that they seek love and a long term relationship.

Yet, there are also a number of individuals who are married or otherwise attached who simply want to see what might be available in terms of temporary companionship.

Many people are forthright about their true status and intentionality. Others are not.

Simon laments that he can not find a suitable date or long term relationship partner. On his dating profile, he presents himself as a single, successful business owner seeking a long term relationship.

Yet, he does not mention that he is still married (separated), totally dependent on his spouse for financial support and emotionally still entwined in her life.

To attract love, make sure that who you are authentically matches what you present on your online profile.
