Online dating is the "in" thing for today's generation. They find it interesting, out of the box as well as exciting! The concept of online dating is getting common day by day and quite successful too. But there are some rules that need to be followed while dating online. There are a few basic mistakes that men bound to make while dating online.

Some of the blunders that men are bound to make includes-

• Guys tend to put up more information in their profiles than required. This may even sometimes give an impression of being desperate for a girlfriend or giving her all the information beforehand. Don't reveal much about yourself in your profile.

• Don't put up fake pictures online. Guys tend to show how smart they are and put up out dated photographs online. Try and put up only a few snaps but all the real ones.

• Guys tend to not keep their information genuine. Girls might cross check the accuracy of your information and they might not come for a second date if they don't find your information to be real. So if you want it to be everlasting then be real.

• Guys don't know the essence of approaching a girl. The man should know the friendly and thoughtful approach to a girl's heart. If you want to create a lifetime impression then make that first impression memorable.

• Making spelling and grammar mistakes is another blunder guys make while dating online. In simple words, poor and weak writing skills are a complete turn off.

• Don't make the mistake of not taking the first step to meet. If you expect she'll approach you for a date you are highly mistaken. Make that first move and give her the idea of meeting over coffee and knowing each other.

• Don't make the mistake of not planning up the meeting beforehand. Set up the place, date and timings to avoid last minutes confusions.

• Stop keeping high expectations. Don't be too rigid or pushy in your approach. This will avoid disappointment for her as well as you.

• Guys question a lot especially personal ones. Be a little subtle in the questioning procedure.

• Men brag a lot. Online dating can prove to be a blunder if the guy brags a lot about his accomplishments. This calls for some serious trouble for your relationship.

• Men act nervous at times. Be relaxed. Keep your cool and be yourself. Have fun and enjoy the date.

Some other errors make includes-

• Being possessive.

• Showing himself as a tough guy.

• Checking out other women and double timing their dates.

• Bringing up his past relationships and talking about his ex.

• Bragging about how much you earn.
