#Dating101: 7 Hacks To Ensure You Have A Smooth Online Dating Experience In 2020

Dating isn’t rocket science. A romantic connection always starts with a good first impression. All you need to do is be yourself and let things flow naturally! However, we all feel a little stuck from time to time. We understand that dating can sometimes be a daunting experience for women. There are so many questions that cross our minds when we begin our online dating journey. Will it be safe? Am I doing it right? Etc. But worry not, we’re here to help. Here’s our guide for super-smooth dating experience in the new decade. 

Be confident

We’ve mentioned this before and we’re going to say it again. Confidence is the key to taking it easy. If you’re confident about yourself, then you’re always ready to take on the world and not sweat about the small stuff.

Make your profile stand out

We all are very sceptical when it comes to online dating. However, you wouldn’t know if you don’t put yourself out there, right? Putting up just one picture might seem like you’re disinterested. Ask yourself–would you want to match with someone who has just one picture? We wouldn’t either. And if privacy is your concern, then you can relax. Bumble lets women make the first move by letting you initiate the conversation. Not just that, you can talk to a guy by using just your initials. So, you’re totally safe! How cool is that?

Talk about your expectations

It’s easy to have expectations from someone after a good first date. However, the key to feeling great almost all the time is to communicate what you’re expecting. I know it is very natural to have hope, but sometimes, expectations lead to disappointments. So save yourself the heartbreak and talk about what you expect from your date.

Make the first move

Ditch the old-fashioned route and make the first move. For you to be sure of your decisions, you need to take control of your actions. Bumble gives women the chance to make the first move. Not just that, the app secures your identity by letting you have conversations with people using just your initials. Sounds fab, doesn’t it?

Have fun and be in the moment

Don’t take things too seriously. You are here to meet people and have some fun. Don’t sweat the small stuff and make memories that will last a lifetime. Talking to people can be an exhilarating experience only if you don’t stress about it. Go on, have some fun!

Be yourself

Be yourself. It might be tempting to try to be someone you’re not to seem more interesting, but that strategy is bound to backfire. After all, if you like someone, and they like you for who you are, there are going to be more dates in the future. Putting up a picture that is super old is a big no, no. Bumble has a profile verification feature so you can be sure that you’re talking to someone genuine which is why it is important for you also to be the same. Psst. You can video chat with them to find out. So, if anyone fakes it on the first date, they will either have to pretend to be that person on all the other dates or admit that it was fake. Neither of which is a great start to any relationship (or friendship). Don’t we all want to to be with someone who likes us for who we are? 

Relax

Ladies, it’s just a date. Relax and enjoy yourself. You are here to meet new people, learn and have fun. This journey will be so much more exciting if you chill and just be in the moment.
