Online Dating, EMAIL ETIQUETTE-Do Keep in Mind that Your email is representing who you are.

Do Keep in Mind that Your email is representing who you are.

When you are writing your email you want to write in such a way that you are showing qualities like:
 
Warmth
A sense of humor
 A strong imagination
 Confidence in yourself
 Goals and Aspirations
 Individuality
 The ability to communicate well
 Creativity
 Kindness and tolerance
 
 
You never want your email to make you seem like you are:
 
 Self-centered
 Close minded or judgmental
 Negative about life
 Immature
Manipulative
Materialistic
 Shallow
 
So think before you press the send button.

When you are communicating through email, there are certain rules of etiquette that you should follow, especially when you want to make a good impression.
Writing a good email is important because it is usually what gives a new prospective date his or her first impression of you.
Here are some of the basic rules of email etiquette that you should follow when you are communicating by email:
• Use the same structure you would use for a letter
• Always use a spell check before you hit “send”
• Watch your grammar and punctuation
• Write in several small paragraphs instead of one large one
• Don’t request delivery and read receipts
• Keep your sentences short and to the point
 
Write in text and not HTML
• Don’t attach files unless the person you are emailing requested them
• Don’t keep sending emails if you don’t get a response right away
• Keep the tone of your writing warm but polite
• Don’t curse or swear
• Don’t use fancy fonts or insert pictures or animations
• Don’t use all capital letters
When you’re writing an email to someone on an online dating site, write it the same way you would write a business email. That will make a better impression than writing it the same way you would have write an email to your best friend since high school.
