Online dating is one of the best and easiest ways of finding a new dating partner, especially if you don't have a lot of time to socialise because of family commitments.
KNO Dating is totally dedicated to single Mums & Dads (& those happy to meet them), and it's FREE to register and send unlimited mini-messages - so what have you got to lose? Only your single status!
Create a new account by clicking on the blue box on the left of this page (only takes a few minutes), and here are some good tips to make your new membership a success:
1. Be active and stay active! Make the first move and contact as many potential dating partners as you can - even those who don't, at first sight, match up to your idea of the "perfect" partner. In reality, there is no such thing - and you could miss out on meeting someone very special. Then keep logging into your account regularly. Contact all the new members who join - make them feel welcome. It's only an email!
Also make sure you use our discussion forum (MotorMouth) and our chat room (ChatterBox) as often as possible. Get your name out there, and let potential dating partners know you're up for a discussion or chat.
2. Spread your wings! Mr or Ms Right may not, unfortunately, live round the corner, or might be a few years older/younger than you originally anticipated. Don't be afraid to look further afield or contact people outside of your "ideal" age range.
3. Make the most of your profile/photo! Make sure it says enough about you and your interests. Does it sound friendly? Does your sense of humour shine through? Try reading it from a potential dating partner's point of view. Make sure your photo is of good quality, preferably a close-up shot of head and shoulders, and definitely smiling!
If you can't upload a photo, send a print into our office for scanning. You will get far more response with a photo.
4. Stay positive! Dating later in life is really no different to dating when you were a teenager. Remember the disappointments and the knock-backs? How often did you like someone a lot and it wasn't reciprocated, and vice-versa? Don't fool yourself that it won't happen again - possibly many times over until the right person comes along. Just stay positive and don't give up, as the very next person you meet could be the right one!
Create a new account today and put all the above advice into practice. It will make a huge difference to your online dating experience!
