DATING
Part of the online dating experience involves eventually providing an email address
to someone you are communicating with to make the process easier. For this, you
should register an email account for the sole purpose of online dating. You want
to do this for a couple of reasons. First, by not giving out your real email
address, you remain safe in not providing too much identifying information to
the person you are initially communicating with. Second, a new email address
will be SPAM free and easy to keep your dating life organized.
Yahoo
recently evolved its free email service to include 100MB
of storage! This is an increase over the 6MB it used
to offer. And Google is set to launch Gmail that
will provide up to 1GB of storage space for free. Select
a good username (one that matches your online dating
username, if possible) and don't provide your Last Name
in the last name field (which protects your identity
when communicating with others). Never post your email
address to prevent SPAM bots from picking it up.
Most
of all, be selective of who you give your email address
to. Some people set up a profile and state in the profile
message for you to put an email address in your first
communication since they are not a member (Here's some
actual text from one profile: "I am not able to
write you back if you write me. So you must send another
address with your letter.") When you provide your
email address, you are suddenly inundated with SPAM and
may find your profile suddenly popping up on sites you
never signed up for! Be very selective who you give your
email address to and you will have a wonderful SPAM free
dating communication experience. (SOURCE: Online Dating
