Sometimes this act can come subtly with one of the persons caught off-guard. This is especially when there has not been an existing relationship and one of the parties begins to initiate it. With the advent of the internet, a lot of dating is now done online.
Sometimes people are invited by friends or total strangers to join these sites which create a fovourable environment for them to date. One registers as a member and thereafter has access to other members; then relationships gradually develop from there.
Nevertheless, some people are also invited for a date without having knowledge of the person inviting them. The one who initiates the chart simply picks up your IM username through phishing and then sends you a message either because he truly needs a date or because he is looking for a prey.
You are bombarded from time to time with messages that are intended to make you feel important and in a better position to give love to a hopeless soul. Some of the messages could just be “I am looking for someone to love’, “I am looking for a prince/princess”, “I need someone to sweep me off my feet”, “I am lonely and need a serious relationship”, “I saw your profile and fell in love with you”, etc.
You need to be very careful when you receive such messages on your yahoo messenger, Google chart or MSN. You could refuse such offers and yet you are polite the way you do it. For instance when you receive a flirt message like “I need someone to love me and sweep me off my feet”, you could simply say ‘thanks for your interest in me; I would have loved to accept this invitation, unfortunately, I have a very charming wife/husband whose heart could be broken if I cheat on him/her’.
When you also receive a message saying ‘I went through your profile and fell in love with you’, you could as well reply ‘I am sorry about having to break your heart; my profile hardly tells you all you need to know about me’.
You are able to decline the offers made to you without sounding arrogant; yet you should be firm when you decide never to accept such flirt messages from someone you hardly know. The person may likely pressurize you further to see if you could have a change of heart: remain on your decision and maintain your integrity.
You could fall victim if you decide to act on emotion and accept to date someone you hardly know, who could just be using the screen as a way of deceit. You need to separate emotions from reality, make up your mind on what you want; look for somebody you can see eyeball to eyeball and ask questions without he/she having to hide behind the screen to deceive you.
