How to Use Dating Apps: Tips for Staying Safe & Having Fun


Listen Later

Well, the time has finally come to dive into all things dating apps! The emotional responses that come when the conversation turns to dating apps is always a mixed bag. They can be an exciting new way to connect but they can also lead to discouragement, sometimes all in the same week! I’ve used these apps and coached women who use these apps, so I’ve taken all this experience and packed it into this one episode. The key to online dating is in setting realistic expectations and always finding the opportunity to learn more about yourself, even if the date doesn’t lead you directly to the altar. 

 

Navigating the world of online dating is a lot simpler if you know what you should include and what you should leave out when it comes to creating your profile. How will I attract the right person? Is there such a thing as being too honest? (Ahem, yes!)  How long should we chat on email or through messaging before setting up a time to meet? I will cover all these questions and more! I’m also going to help you understand why being intentional about your expectations can allow you to enjoy the process more often. Listen to learn some of my best tips on creating your profile, how to handle the first few dates, and how to be a decent human, even when you’re not interested!



In this episode we’ll explore: 

  • How to find the right balance between being honest and over-sharing information about your profile. 
  • How it can be easy to interact with the person in our fantasy versus the person we are meeting in real life. 
  • Tips for how to deal with a lack of connection- on your end or theirs!
