ImageOnline dating have become increasingly popular. Remember a 1998 film You've Got Mail, a relationship was established entirely over mail before meeting each other?

Romance movies usually have a happy ending. In reality, it does not apply all the time.

There are several free dating websites and featured success love stories but it does not guarantee it will happen to you.Do not be too confident on laws that require sites to perform background checks on sex offender, still better be safe than sorry. There's nothing wrong with looking for love as long as you are not submitting yourself to stalking, fraud and sexual violence.

Online dating services usually require members to provide personal information such as age, gender and location. It also allow members to upload photos of themselves. Top rule, do not give your complete address. Do not give your date a chance to pick you up at home.

Remember what your parents always tell you, do not trust

a stranger. It is better to meet someone for the first time in a public place that is very familiar to you or in a restaurant where the staff knows you, because if something goes wrong you can ask for help.

First date should not be forced if you feel something is wrong with the person. Leave anytime. You will know if you will get along with your date or not, you don't have to hurt their feelings but you can give a hint that something important came up and you will just call, even if you will not get in touch again. Do not feel guilty by giving your home number, if you are not interested in seeing the person again, giving a person a chance to contact you will just ignite false hope.

You may not be able to find true love right away through online dating but you can be lucky to be able to keep some good friends in them. Who knows some of the best romances were based on friendship. Valentine season makes singles too vulnerable to fall into this trap but some are lucky to enjoy a really good date, others might experience being stood up or meeting the person but there is no spark.

Love works in mysterious ways not just online. Be you, be safe.

Happy Valentines!
