So just concentrate on one man at a time. Less confusing that way, plus you'll find out whether you really like him or not.

You cant find out their name unless it is in their profile. Make sure yours and your boyfriends names arent in your profile. Never share personal information online. Dont trust anyone! This person might know you from some other conversation or from your daily life if you have told other friends what your screen name is. Please be careful there are many bad types out there.

Start slow.  Take time to get to know the next person you date before throwing your emotions into another relationship.  It takes time, I know.  Give yourself time to heal then start over again.  You don't have to rush but don't hide from dating or relationships for to long because after a while you might become too comfortable avoiding situations were your trust is tested.  Then your just alone.

Thats not a bad thing. You have the right to make an informed decision on who you want to date. BUT, be honest with the guys. And try not to make them feel like  they're being played.

i'm actually going to say that the internet date is better simply because you have a chance to get to know them before you go on the date so that you'll already have some background knowledge and experience together. that way you'll always have something to fall back on if things get quite. plus you normally can get a look at them first and find out it your even vaguely interested.

first thing everybody who asks this question needs to know is this: YOU CANNOT MAKE PEOPLE LIKE YOU. you can try everything; changing yourself, different clothes, potions, salves, death threats, but you can't get in a person's head and force them to think certain thoughts.\n\nHaving said that,  my tried and true method is talking. get to know the vict...er, guy! show off your great personality and what a fun person you really are. If you're not comfortable dating right off the bat, ask him to do something social, with a group of friends. and really be with all your friends if and when you go. that way, you're not singling anybody out, and you are assured of a good time even if this guy isn't a picknic to be around. If you want to be mano-e-mano with this person, you need to leave your other friends at home. no matter how shy you are, it is just RUDE with a capital R to drag people around and then play kissey-kissey or give all your attention to one person.\n\nIf you do decide to go for a one-on-one date, go somewhere neutral. Stay away from low or bad lighting, and DON'T BE ALONE. this means: don't go over to his house when nobody's there, or be in deserted parts of town, or anything like that. This will reassure you that he isn't going to jump you, and will put him at ease that you won't pounce him like a tigress in heat.\n\nAnd then, when you are together, talk. talk about anything and everything, and enjoy yourself. if you can't relax around this person, you may be kidding yourself. it's normal to be nervous first date, but after a while you should be able to put yourself at ease. and as much talking as you do, be sure to come up for air. this is VERY important. Letting the other person talk does a variety of things; first it sends the message that you're not just interested in yourself, but you want to hear what they have to say. Second, you learn a little more about this person and get a better idea if you want to stick around. and third, you can hear if he wants to be around you. you will hear many auditory clues from a disinterested person. Listen and watch while you talk. are they engaged? are they giving body signals that they are paying attention? or are their eyes wandering, their limbs twitching, their head swiveling? Are they answering you in complete sentences, or are they answering questions that aren't yes or no with "I dunno..."? above all, pay attention to what they say when they speak! just as you are seeing if they like you, you are checking to see if you like them.\n\nTrust yourself, and be confident, and you will never steer yourself wrong. Good luck!

I think it especially sucks if you have no way of knowing the person through others as a reference. When other people know a person and their background, its a good way to see that they are who they say they are by asking others about the potential date person. Overwhelmingly, the people are shy and a little too much of homebodies. Oh yes, they also have a much higher potential to lie about themselves, income, job, and lifestyle-so watch out.

1. Never look back always move forward.\n 2. Stay active with family and friends.\n 3. get rid of anything that will remind you of this person pictures, concert and movie stubs ect.\n 4. And most important Never blame yourself everything happens for a reason, and it being a BAD relationship your better off it wasnt ment to be.\n\n                 AND YES ITS OK TO START DATING  SOOO DATE ON !!!!!

Don't date online. I have too many friends that have been roped into becoming emotionally invested in somebody they're "dating" online who turns out to be nothing like the person they presented themselves to be. Just stay away from it.\n\nAnd don't worry about inexperience. Most guys your age arn't all that experienced, either.\n\nJust make sure you know that none of the first 5 guys you date are going to be the guy you marry. The thing people learn in those young romances is that falling in love with the idea of being in love only leads you to heartbreak.\n\nI started dating by picking a guy I worked with who was a lot of fun to be around, who had a great sense of humor, went to my best friends' church, and had a reputation for getting around. I picked him because I was ready for a lover, but not for a relationship. That's exactly what we had, and nothing more, and I've never regretted it.\n\nDon't get a boyfriend. Get "guys you're seeing" and then get "lovers" and someday get a "significant other" and someday you'll have a husband. But the experiences you'll be having now are to get to know yourself, to get to know what kind of men are out there, to get to know how relationships work, what you have to put into them, and what you can expect to get out of them.\n\nObviously, your parents had problems. In my opinion, many married couples have problems because they didn't date enough first. Sometimes, they get curious as to what it would be like to be with someone else. Sometimes, they don't realize how much work needs to go into a relationship to keep it going. Sometimes they think they should be getting more out of the marriage. Sometimes they realize that they are with someone who doesn't treat them the was they deserve to be treated. \nThe reason people date when they're young is so that they know the answers before they make a commitment.\n\nSo remember: \njust because you feel strongly for someone doesn't mean you're in love with him; \njust because you don't think you'll spend the rest of your life with someone isn't a reason not to go out with him and have a good time; \nbe yourself: misrepresenting yourself won't ever help you to be happy; \nand you're only young and carefree once in your life, take some chances and enjoy it. \n\nOnce this time is gone, you'll never get it back. Be brave, be forward, be confident in yourself, be a woman.

Make a list (lists rock!). Put each boy's name on a seperate side. Then put good qualities starting at the top and bad qualities starting at the bottom. See who stacks up better.\nBut honestly, who treats you better? Who do you think about more when you daydream? Who makes you smile without even trying? Who is nicer to you? Who is the easiest to talk to? Who matches up to you the best in wishes and dreams? Stuff like college, kids, family, religion, likes and dislikes. Yeah, you prolly aren't ready for the kids and 2 story house yet, but dating is a process of finding what kind of guy you want to be with forever. Don't stay with a jerk. Don't date guys that are selfish or put you down. If they are mean to other people or their family, that's a bad sign too. And when in doubt, follow your gut!

When two ultra hot people get naked and make the beast...oh wait!  You said dating, not mating.  Ummmmm errrr...feeling weird.  Regrouping.\n\nDating is when you casually see someone outside of the bedroom without being committed to them.  You can see them once, twice, three times a lady, because timing isn't a factor.  \n\nWhen you date someone exclusively with some kind of commitment, you are now in a relationship.

Make a list of 20 spaces on a sheet or how ever many people are in the room. Everyone walks around the room trying to get the name of and some basic information about each person. They get thirty seconds then they switch and find somebody else. You can do this for 5 minutes or how ever long you want. Just a suggestion.
