Be Selective in Who You Meet in Person, if Anyone at All
When using the internet and dating apps to meet new people, it is always important to be selective about who you meet in person. However, during the pandemic, it is even more critical because there are now additional possible threats to your life and the lives of others with the COVID-19 virus rampant. When you meet someone in person, always wear a mask unless you intend to stay 6 feet apart

Consider Going on Some Virtual Dates
Because of technological advances, potential couples also can plan virtual dates, which many are finding to be a valuable option during the pandemic. Some popular ideas include:

• Playing an online life simulation game together
• Planning a Facetime dinner and movie together
• Solve a virtual escape room together
The options for virtual dating are seemingly limitless. The only aspect of regular dating that virtual dating does not offer is physical contact, and during the pandemic, physical contact with anyone outside of your household is highly discouraged

Use Email, Video Chat, Messenger to Get to Know New People

The age of the internet provides people with more options for communication than they ever had before. Going out with someone or continuously inviting them into your homes is no longer the primary way of getting to know someone. Email, messenger, and texting are three great ways to get to know someone new before deciding if they are worth the risk during these scary times. If face-to-face conversation is more up your alley, there are video chat options on most cell phones and internet messaging apps. By utilizing these resources, dating with minimal to no health risks is still possible by using modern technology

Couples have a better chance of getting back together and staying together when partners give themselves time to think things over and reflect upon what changes need to happen.

Space is a perfectly healthy thing in a relationship and will contribute to its longevity. If you give yourself time to breathe, time to keep growing individually as you grow as a couple, and time to develop an even better appreciation for each other, your relationship will definitely reach a new frontier.

You May Need To Re-evaluate Your Relationship
Every relationship will encounter rough times. In many cases, partners will come to the brink of splitting time and time again, but both are too afraid to initiate a real break up or a real timeout so they can think about the future. Space is sometimes very crucial when couples are teetering close to the break up line.
Sometimes relationships do need to be re-evaluated. Maybe one partner cheated on another and forgiveness hasn't really been decided upon yet. Maybe there needs to be more communication, some changes and compromises, but no one is willing to make any. Space at a time like this will have couples seeking out the advice of other neutral parties and getting a different perspective. It's a great time to get family advice from those who love and care about you.
Relationships can be exhausting and trying, but time away from each other to get a clear head may be the single most important thing you could ever do to help your relationship get back on track. Sometimes, the scare of space is enough to set a partner straight and make he or she realize that you are serious about certain changes or certain comprises coming into effect. Nothing is more eye-opening than seeing your girl or guy say goodbye and close the door behind them . . . possibly forever.

You develop a greater appreciation for each other
What makes a vacation get-away so awesome is that you don't get to visit the destination often and have all that luxury treatment at your disposal. If you were on a vacation 24-7, not only would you start to take things for granted, it would not be as fun and exciting than if you had finally been able to go once after a hectic year of non-stop slaving in an office. It is the same thing for relationships. If your awesome guy or gal is constantly on your heels, you can easily start to take the great things they do for granted. One day you're telling your guy, "Thanks babes, I always love it when you massage me right after work." Soon you find yourself saying, "Wow, that was a short rub, babes. You usually do it longer and a little better than that." Give someone the time to miss you. However cliché it sounds, absence often does make the heart grow fonder.

For some people, the thought of letting their partner go out and do things on their own is a little frightening. Many people fear that they may be allowing cheating to happen if they let their mate mingle with the opposite sex when they are not around. But sometimes a harmless step back into the "single pool" with a bunch of single friends can be helpful to a relationship. If you really love your partner, accept their flaws, and love all the unique things about them, then every other member of the opposite sex that you meet just won't be able to meet up to their standards. It is always good to be reminded of what you have, and the best way to do that sometimes is by remembering exactly what qualities in a guy or girl turned you off and made you find the partner you're with now. Of course, this does not mean going out every night to a club by yourself with a person of the opposite sex. You are human. You want to be looking for space, not temptation. Whether you go shopping alone or spend a little time with friends, just make sure that at least once a week your mate is out of your sight and your mind is on other things. Of course, this does not mean neglect. You have to know where to draw the line between neglect and space, and you must communicate to your partner that wanting to take space isn't necessarily a bad thing. If you spend a little time away from each other, each next encounter will be a little sweeter. The more you allow someone to miss you is the more they'll want to call you from that club or call you when he is out with his buddies

Spending time away from each other can be crucial to the longevity of a couple. But how can space make a relationship even stronger? There are three main reasons why ignoring each other for a while may be good for your relationship.

Two's a Crowd
Even if it seems like you and your partner share the same brain, have the same interests, and finish each other's sentences, getting annoyed with each other will definitely happen if all you do is spend time together and never apart. Last week it was fine with you to skip "Weeds" for an episode of her favourite reality show, but this week you have to skip "CSI" for a re-run of "The Biggest Loser". You may not have minded playing a little video games with him when you wanted to go out and see the newest Angelina Jolie flick, but this week again you find yourself having to ditch something you want to do for something he does. Even though a relationship is about unity and also compromise, people often forget that they are individuals. It's perfectly healthy to disagree and want to do things apart. An intuitive person will know when blood is starting to boil and know when to suggest a timeout.

Many couples are afraid to do things apart because of what it may "mean". The only thing it means for an already healthy couple whose partners truly enjoy being in each other's company is that both individuals want to pursue individual interests, and there is nothing wrong with that. While someone should definitely make the effort to partake in their partner's interests from time to time, whether it be shopping or going to a bar, to expect that of them every time is unfair. After you get done shopping with the girls, or hanging out with the guys, you can rest assured that the feeling of coming back into your partner's arms will be even better. A little space can make a world of difference

One girl a long time ago turned my computer on and viewed who knows what on it without my knowledge or consent. THEN she was angry at me and snapped at me quite angrily over something she saw on there. IJ never did hear what she said. Maybe it was a made-up something. I didnt know any better (never taught a single practical thing-and that was intentional.)
She continued to spend my money down and at the same time to become more enraged that i didnt give her MORE money. She was THAT kind of person. So now what i know better, i dump the few girls who come my way real fast, when they start doing that sort of thing. I wont forgive it ONCE, for one minute. And no apology or any other offering can fix it!
I finally learned my lesson during my marriage. She did more than mess with my computer.
My ex wife made me fully realize there's some things you can't fix

Here are 7 things that might seems little, but might really annoy the guy you like.

You change his presets
Just because he's your boyfriend and might let you drive his car sometimes, doesn't give you the right to change his radio presets. In your car the presets are yours. It doesn't matter if you don't like what he listens to or want to influence him to listen to something new. Doing this will definitely annoy your boyfriend.

You talk during sports
Doesn't matter what sport your boyfriend is into, if he loves it, you need to avoid being a chatterbox. Most men get into a zone when they watch sports, so he probably won't hear you anyway. You'll end up mad that he's not listening, but he'll be mad that you're trying to take his attention away from the game. Instead of talking during the game, wait until commercials or game breaks.

You text him 50 times a day
While you might assume he'd be flattered that you're always thinking about him, consider how you would feel if you got texts from anyone that many times a day. Give him a chance to miss you. Texting him so much is only going to do the opposite.

You peek in his phone
This is a major no-no. No peeking in his phone while he's in the shower. Whether you're just curious or you're suspicious, it's important that you talk to him instead of sneaking around. Eventually, he will find out that you did it. He'll likely find out from you because you'll probably have a question about a name or picture you saw. A guy who isn't doing anything wrong will be annoyed that he has to protect his phone from you. Just because he's not doing anything wrong, doesn't mean you should be able to snoop through his phone anytime you want.

You smother him
You might do this because you love him, but over time your constant attention will become too much. Your boyfriend doesn't need you to take care of him constantly. Remember that he's a grown man and not a child.

You put yourself down to receive compliments
This behavior is annoying coming from anyone, but you don't want to try this with your boyfriend. Guys already feel like they can't win when it comes to giving compliments to their girlfriends, so you don't want to fish around for compliments. Putting yourself down, whether in honesty or an attempt to get compliments is not an attractive quality.

You talk abut your exes
Whether you are bad-mouthing your exes or talking about them fondly, the experience won't likely be pleasant for your current boyfriend. Of course he realizes that you had boyfriends before him, but that doesn't mean you need to relive the relationship with him.

It's the annoying LITTLE habits that can break a relationship. It's important to take your guy's feelings into consideration. If you don't, it might mean the end of your relationship.

oh, you missed one
"He won't put you on ANY of his social networking accounts at all"

unless, like me, there is zero social networking site/service activity, I would say that not adding you at all would be a bad sign.

and yes, no facebook, twitter, reddit, linkedin, instagram, g+ ... [ ad nausium ] accounts for me.
I would rather hear about my friends and loved ones day in person than through intrusive technologies that interrupt your day to inform you.

Agree with this article. Another thing to watch out for are the settings. Are you getting all the newsfeeds or are you excluded from certain feeds or certain apps. (i.e. if there's never anything coming from his newsfeed, ask yourself whether you've been excluded from the feed) and start paying attention.

Social networking is something that most people are into because it's a great way to keep in touch with everyone. When you're a couple who are into the social networking scene, there are a few warning signs to be on the lookout for. Here are 4 of those warning signs.

He won't list you as his girlfriend
Not only won't he list you as his girlfriend, but he refuses to set his status to "in a relationship." This is cause for worry. While some people don't like to make every detail of their life public, this is one that doesn't exactly invade privacy. It lets people know that you're taken and not single. You have to wonder why he doesn't want people to know that he's in a relationship.

He has a 2nd account he won't add you to
Your boyfriend set up a second account on the same site, but won't add you to it. This is another action that should worry you. Maybe he made an excuse like he's only using it for his job and doesn't want to get the two mixed up. That is still no reason to leave you off of the list unless he doesn't want you to see something.

He asks you to not post any photos of him
If he wants zero pictures on his account at all, this request makes complete sense. On the other hand, if he posts pictures of himself and asks that you don't post any or tag him, this is suspicious behaviour. This makes it look like he doesn't want people to know that you are together.

He has far more women than men as friends
You glanced at your boyfriend's friend list and noticed that it mostly contains women. What's more, they are women that you've never heard of from destinations all over the world. When you ask him about them he'll claim they are people he met somewhere, but won't go into specifics or tell you anything about them.

While it's not good to be paranoid about every move that your boyfriend makes on social networking sites, there are some actions that require further investigation. Not everything is a sign that your relationship is doomed, but when something makes you wonder, it's worth looking into..

I just want to say that all nice, polite and complimentary guys aren't "scammers"! I have no real experience with any "scamming" on this or any other site, beyond the relatively obvious "working girls". So I have no idea what others are experiencing, but some nice people are just that, and I hate to see a whole genre of personalities lumped in with the dregs of the society! I hope the whole world doesn't turn into a sea of jaded mistrust and suspicion, but I understand the effects of a con. Hopefully we can keep a sliver of trust in our hearts that SOME things are just as they seem, and not every person or event is filled with a conspiracy of hate and fear.

Uhhh, well...here’s the thing, I don’t see how a person could EVER fall “in-love” with a person whom they’ve never met face-to-face and actually spent a significant amount of time with in-order to actually develop true feelings of love and not just a surge of chemicals being released in your brain due to this fantasy person you’ve concocted. Ladies and gentlemen, keep your feelings at-bay until you’ve actually met the person and have actually gone on at least a few real dates lol. Anyone asking for something like money is an automatic call-them-out and end contact for me...put your feelings aside and think with your brain analytically, no need to contact authorities because scammers are like roaches, they are impossible to get rid of, so don’t get yourself worked up over something that cannot truly be created in cyber space (love). Just keep your senses about you and be smart, there should NEVER be a time when a person is scammed online by anyone as long as you’re smart and don’t allow your emotions to rule you, learn to master your emotions before you decide to pursue dating ANYONE.

All scammers tell you what they know you want to hear. They only set you up to either, send them money or get them out of the country they are in. They need a sponsor to do it, and that costs money even just to meet you.
I have found in the past 20yrs it's all the same, they want something. I found the best way is to insists they come and meet you, if they make excuses or say they do not have the money to come, or ask you to send the money for their ticket,m forget them.

Scammers get into your head,showering you with flattery and compliments to gain your trust.Once they see that you have succumb to their " flattery and "fake" attention, and gained your trust by telling you " so much about themselves" All lies of course. Then comes the first part of the scam. They tell you things like their baby sister needs surgery but the family cant afford it.Or they have a "friend" who is in trouble and asked them for financial help but as" they "dont make much money , they are unable to help their "desperate friend".
Hoping to appeal to you as their compassionate good friend to stump up and send money to a PO Box in Tunisia, Ghana , Ivory Coast etc etc.
Another one is that the would love to visit you. They will claim to have been to your country before , but of course they are strapped for cash.
Another scam is pretending to be in the Military or they are Bank Manager.(why would a bank manager be offering you a job via a date site ?.Go figure it out.
They lying , scamming slugs out to decieve you and con you out of money.So no matter how much they flatter you, write you gushy poems and declare their " fake love" for you. Take it like you would dog sh*t on your shoe.Cause these con artists are lower than a snails A*s..Word of advice. Dont get involved. Preventions better than cure.

Most scammers on here use very bad English (level of the Kindergarten). That's because they are really from overseas and using Google Translate to write to you, but of course, they will try to appear to be an American man.
Way too fast they will ask you what you do for living. Do not answer it. Yet. I say I do what it takes.
Most scammers will try to get you off this site way too fast, offering to exchange emails, phone numbers or Hangout apps or whatever. Do not do it. I always say to them: all communications will be on here only until AFTER I meet you in person. And even then only if I liked you in person than and only than will i provide my number.
Most scammers have real problem with posting additional 5-6 photos of himself. That's because he stole few on the Internet and has nothing left to steal of the same person in the photo because IT IS NOT HIM. Do not ever give your email, number so he can text you his additional photos. IF HE WAS ABLE TO POST HIS PHOTO (OR TW ON HER, THERE IS NO REASON ON EARTH WHY HE COULD NOT POST ADDITIONAL PHOTOS OF HIMSELF ON HERE AGAIN.
He wants to get your personal email, phone number to contaminate it with computer viruses Trojans etc. that will steal your passwords to bank accounts etc. and sell it on dark web.
Ladies, for crying out loud, use your heads, don't be a "fruit cake"!
Have standards. It's up to you to have them and stick by them.
Your goal is to make him meet you in person, in public place, as soon as possible. face to face. So you can judge that he is real and then using your intuition you will see what he is all about.

I notice most of the people posting in this thread , are using scammer grammar.

But that aside, lets answer your question.

A scammer is someone who says what they think you want to hear to give them what they want.
They are NOT open with their emotions (it is all a lie to get your money/bank account info)
They are NOT honest with you (they simply say what normally gets them your money/bank account info)
They are NOT complimentary in what they say (It is simply what normally gets them your money/bank account info).

Do you see the pattern yet?

And as a man who is health, wealthy (made my own money thank you very much) in good shape, and a lot of fun to be around... and not even 40 yet... I have found expressing my emotions like this does not get me a happy married life but instead emotionally traumatized/stunted proto chicks who want a live in butler/walking atm. (at least in the USA, I will probably go back to Europe to get some real women as non seem to exist state side anymore.)

But that is just my experience.

I see the same picture(s) on their profiles that's been there for the last 10/15 years, with no changes,
Wonder if the scammers think people don't notice ' WE DO NOTICE '
One person can have about 40 profiles, you block one then they try to contact you with another profile, the pattern is easy to notice....

This site is being taken over by scammers and there seems to be no effort to stop them .the blatant lies total contradictions in their profiles with pictures that don't even match the description in the profile . What's worst is the insult to my intelligence . Do they think any woman over age 60 is so desperate for male flattery that they will be taken in by their expressions of love and other nonsense remarks ? . I receive an average of 3 scammers per day if I'm online they just trawl through and try hitting if your online. I think every one needs to start reporting them . I often reply and tell them they're scammers and then they delete the profile .I know they will just create another but if every one shows them they've been sussed every time maybe they'll get the message and go to another site . I have to block north America as most pretend to be from usa as if it's the most desirable nationality in the world . It is for them obviously but not for every one. They are mostly Nigerian or Romanians who spend their days behind banks of computer screens trying to scam people . I talked to guy who was in contact with Russian woman and had sent her expensive jewellery she had asked for 500 for fare to Ireland. I tried warning him but he wanted to believe some stunning Russian woman was going to love him . It seems the less desirable they actually are the more they want to believe the illusion .What can you say some people are deluded want to believe this successful handsome high-powered person had fallen for them . Life isn't a fairy tale and dating online is more fiction than fact .most men lie about their age marital status dating history . Most men want sex asap that's it .most men are huge disappointment .the world of dating online is .........I've no words left ......well one or two ......a fruitless quest yes thats 3 words

As someone who is unfamiliar with receiving messages from 'scammers' on dating websites, I quickly read and learned how to spot a likely scammer. The saddest part is, the 'scammers' are much more complimentary and emotionally outgoing than the average man.
I have been told by apparent scammers that I am 'the paragon of beauty', 'most beautiful girl' and 'I am in love with you, I am'. The majority of my flowerbox bouquets have been from apparent 'scammers'.

Why are other men not so willing to express themselves? Hmm.. I'll take honest expression and chivalry anyday! Perhaps there is something for the average man to learn here from these other men.

Oh, sure, they want something from you, but at least those labeled 'scammers' express themselves openly.. ha. What happened to manners, men? Holding doors and taking care of a woman because you WANT to, not because you want something in return?

Consider this: There is nothing wrong with wanting to be taken care of and caring for someone in return. If you do not wish to do this, why are you on a dating site?

Most men, upon hearing that a woman wants security, thinks 'golddigger'. As someone who was raised in an upper-middle-class family, my cousins married a doctor and a lawyer respectively, AFTER the women had built up their own career with good salaries and even bought their own home at age 24-25! Many polls have shown that a wealthy, successful man wants to marry a woman who has her own career and money.

Supporting your wife and 'letting' her stay at home and be a homemaker is done out of genuine love sometimes, you know. They line the streets of the neighborhoods I was raised in.

Just food for thought. Many men who are willing to do this, and wish to be cared for in return, are often happily married right now.
