Before jumping into the wide world of online dating you need to figure out what it is you're looking for. Start big and narrow things down. Are you looking for a long-term relationship, casual dating, or friendship? What kind of women do you like? And be honest with yourself, are you willing to put effort into yourself and your online profile to attract the type of person you're after? The only reason people find success with online dating is because they've put something into it, just like any other successful relationship. Online dating is not an avenue for the lazy. You don't have to like everybody, but it's important to keep your options open. By communication with different kinds of people you're improving upon yourself, and your conversation skills. If you're trying to hold out on talking to people until the super-model you've always wanted comes along you're not going to be able to talk to her.
Talking with lots of people builds confidence. If you missed communication day in kindergarten now is your chance to make it up. The internet is not a magical all-knowing being, so don't listen to everything it says. In trying to find a dating site you're probably going to be pushed here, there, and elsewhere. Use a reputable dating site that actually has members, a free trial isn't a bad idea either. Stay away from anything that asks for a social security number. Dating sites that work usually charge a fee, so take the time and read the privacy policy. Illegitimate sites will either not have privacy policies in an easy to find place, or they'll be ridiculously hard to understand--that's a red flag: don't use that site. Just as you shouldn't be giving your social to every site that asks for it, don't give it any people either. Once you've set up your profile and started talking to people (we'll get that in a minute) don't associate with those that ask too much personal information. Your address, phone numbers, social security number, anything to do with banking, work information, passwords, family background, don't give any of it!

Anybody that actually cared about you wouldn't care what your address was during your first few conversations. Would you ask that kind of information of someone? Your profile is the only thing you really have to work with. Just like with meeting women in person it's a good idea to put your best foot forward. Remember that there are millions of profiles out there, so yours has to set you apart from the rest. The information you post on your profile should be legitimate. Don't claim to be a doctor if you aren't, don't lie about income, family, or if you're married. Not only is it tacky but it's guys like that which make things harder for you--because I'm assuming you're a legitimate guy. Women do appreciate honesty, and it's a lot easier to build trust from the beginning of a relationship rather than letting everything tumble and having to start over.
Talk about what's interesting to you, but avoid being bland. Oh, you don't say! The only thing that would be amazing about that statement would be if someone actually messaged you. Tell it like you're explaining your life to a friend. It doesn't matter what your interests are, it's how you present them. There is always going to be someone out there that shares your interests. Just like what you say, the pictures posted should be legitimate. Not from ten years ago, and not of anybody else. Avoid webcam pictures at all costs, they look terrible--I don't care what anybody says. Take a picture outside, in the sunlight. Let the world know that you're not a vampire. Smiling never killed anybody so give it a try. The dating world can be intimidating, but don't let it get to you. The most important part is setting up a decent profile and being honest. It's going to work if you give it a try.
