People started to appreciate the world of online dating because in most cases it works well. For women, the thought of dating someone they found online can be scary. They are right though when they think this, as it can be a problem meeting someone in real person. Being careful is an important part of online dating, especially for women. If you're a nice guy this can bring you a few extra obstacles. You're not a weirdo, sexual predator or pervert, just a guy that wants to find the perfect girl.

Patience is important. Don't be too pushy by asking for her real name, her address or other personal information. In the beginning, keep the conversation at a fun and light level. Don't push for a face to face meeting if she's not comfortable with it. The end result can be her thinking that you're a pervert or desperate.

Don't lie about what you do for a living or how you look like. You can't build a decent relationship if you base it on deceit and lies. When she finds out that you lied about something, it can set you back a lot in the relationship.

Photos can be an important part of the ecuation. Post as many photos as possible with you doing day to day stuff. Post photos that show the entire body, not just the head, just like you would in real life.

After you talked for the first time about meeting for real, you can suggest a meeting in a place that is as public as possible, during the day. You can also tell her to bring a friend with her, so she can feel safe. Since you got nothing to hide, make sure she doesn't have any reason to fear meeting you.
