Why do some people have an amazing experience with online dating and others feel like it stinks, sucks, or is just plain NOT fun?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

In our modern world of dating and romance, online dating sites and apps are one of the main ways couples are meeting one another. They promise love, all from the convenience of your phone or laptop.<\/span><\/p>\n

But diving into the world of online dating is less like jumping into a pool and more like stepping onto a high-speed treadmill\u2026\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how to navigate the online dating scene, from getting your mindset in the right place, setting a powerful and inspiring intention and creating a magnetic profile that will attract the RIGHT man to you! (<\/b>If you missed our last Love Chat With The Love Twins on this topic, click HERE to tune in!<\/b><\/a>)<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

So why are some women matching with many high-quality men, getting asked out on dates, and having a ton of fun meeting and getting to know new men, while others feel like they\u2019re matching with nothing but scammers, cat-fishers, or men who are still living in their mother\u2019s basement?\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Let me relate to it like this:<\/span><\/p>\n

There are some people that really love going to the gym, they love the atmosphere, the sweating, and the challenge. I\u2019m not really one of those people – I really have to work at motivating myself to get there.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, if I knew – without a doubt – that the results I wanted were on the other side of going – I\u2019d probably feel differently! If I knew that strength, vitality, and health were waiting for me, just by showing up – <\/span>that belief would shift my mindset and I\u2019d be there every day!<\/b><\/p>\n

It\u2019s the same with online dating. <\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>The truth is: If you\u2019re not getting the results you want, the first place you need to look is at your mindset.<\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you believe online dating won\u2019t work for you, that you\u2019ll only attract scammers, or that it will be hard, time consuming and scary – then that\u2019s exactly what you\u2019ll get.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I can give you all the tips and tricks in the book to craft the perfect online profile (and I will in just a moment!), but if your mindset isn\u2019t in the right place none of it will make a difference.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first step in attracting Extraordinary Love through online dating is:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Shifting Your Energy – <\/b>What are some of the fears you have that are influencing what you\u2019re experiencing in dating?\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Wouldn\u2019t it be amazing if all you had to do is shift your mindset in order for the things you\u2019re doing in dating to work!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It really could be that simple!\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

After you shift your energy, the 2nd thing to do is:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Set Your Intention<\/b> – What do you want to create in your online dating experience and future relationship? <\/i><\/b>
<\/span><\/p>\n

Going back to the analogy of going to the gym and working out, my intention really matters in how motivated I\u2019m going to be to do it. <\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>If my intention is: \u201cI want to lose the 10 pounds I haven\u2019t been able to shed for the last 10 years.\u201d I might not be very inspired to work for it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, my intention is: \u201cTo recreate myself as a healthy woman who feels vibrant and alive so I can travel to visit my kids and live a long life with my future grandchildren.\u201d – that\u2019s a vision!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Set a powerful and inspiring intention for your dating experience. For example:\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>\u201c<\/span>I’m open to meeting men who are aligned with my vision where I have fun and get to create an extraordinary relationship with one who will become my husband.<\/span><\/i>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Okay – so after you\u2019ve made sure your mindset is in the right place and set a powerful and inspiring intention, then – and ONLY then, can you get on the apps and begin crafting the profile that will attract the RIGHT man to you!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Craft a Magnetic Online Dating Profile<\/b><\/p>\n

Your profile needs to reflect YOU. <\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>Not to put the pressure on, but the fact is, you have 3-6 seconds (or in some cases, more like \u00bd a second) to grab the attention of a future date or partner.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are 5 keys to crafting the profile that will grab his attention, reflect you, and inspire the RIGHT men to swipe right!\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Profile Pictures <\/b>– A picture might say a thousand words, but make sure yours are saying the right ones.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Include 4-5 photos in your profile. Make sure the first one is a headshot photo, where you\u2019re facing forward, eyes open and smiling. NO SELFIES!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    For the remaining photos, opt for photos that show the “real” you\u2014maybe you’re kayaking, reading in a coffee shop, or building a robot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
