Smart Jewish Dating Strategies
We have all heard the good, the bad and the ugly about
Jewish dating sites. Some people have news of nuptial bliss
while others have tales of devastating heartbreak. Nevertheless,
devising a good dating strategy that would make any yenta proud
can be achieved.
The reasons so many Jewish mentchs become frustrated with the
Jewish dating circuit are their expectations. If you decrease
your expectations and replace them with a more of a wait and see
approach you will really enjoy the process. You shouldn't become
discouraged just because you've met a few mieskeits who used
digitally enhanced photos in their profiles. Not to mention,
your mother may not appreciate you dating a gentile.
Nonetheless, here are a few smart approaches to Jewish dating
sites:
Expand your professional and social network. The more people you
meet represents more dating opportunities. Just because the love
connection is absent -- does not mean that your new friend has
other eligible friends. Moreover, all of your interests can be
professional networking opportunities.
Maximize the chat room. The chat room is there for those fast
introductions. If you're on the go and don't have the time to
send emails, make random stops onto your Jewish dating site's
chat room to strike up new friendships.
Create a Single Forum. On most Jewish dating sites, members can
create forums of specific interests. It's a way of developing
new friendships and potential relationships.
Make friendship - foremost. Before you can establish a
relationship, compatibility and friendship are the first hurdles
to conquer. Just because someone does not share the same
feelings does not mean that you should stop making new friends.
A successful Jewish dating strategy involves consistently
expanding your social network of singles. Even if you meet the
person you envision yourself bringing home to meet your parents,
continue to make new friends from your Jewish site.
Be positive. Negative dating attitudes beget negative results.
Consequently, always remain open-minded. Give people a chance by
investing a little time to know them. After all, a good Jewish
dating strategy involves discovering the diamond in the rough.
