Every little girl’s dream is to have an extra big wedding with all their friends and family as they walk down the aisle in a glittery white dress. However, not many give a second thought to the person they would in the future call their husbands. Well, every little girl that has grown up always hopes to find their Mr. Right.
But, the sad part is, not all of them know how or where to find their perfect groom. However, the good news is that, once you start aligning yourself to the thought of finding the perfect groom for you, you will find him. Not only that, but you will find the perfect groom who can be the right husband for you.
The internet has opened up a world with the possibility of hundreds of choices for us that weren’t available in the past. Besides, with the appearance of online dating, distance is no longer an issue when trying to find the perfect groom to go with your big, sparkly, snow-white wedding dress.
The big question is, how do you navigate such an expansive space without kissing hundreds of frogs to meet the groom of your dreams? We’ve gathered a few tips that could help you find and pick the perfect groom for you.
Don’t Judge A Person Based On Their Online Profile
So you meet this guy on an online dating app and he seems to be the perfect match for you. His photo looks up to date and by the looks of it, he’s got a great job that can support both of you once you’re married.
Well, we don’t mean to pour cold water on your hopes and dreams, but in the online world, you can’t take anything for granted. Even though his profile looks completely done and perfect, some of that may be a big, fat lie. While it may be difficult to tell who is genuine and who isn’t in the beginning, investing some time and effort to get to know them a little more will help you learn who is genuine and who isn’t.
Pay attention to the little cues they give, ask the person on the other side of the screen about their work. If they give vague answers or seem like they don’t know what they’re talking about, watch your back. Additionally, there are genuine people out there who’ve got no idea how to complete their online profiles or take attractive photos. Before you decide to ignore anyone’s advances, try to get to know them a little more. You could be ignoring a diamond in the rough.
Make Sure You Do Some Research
Before you reach out to those profiles that match yours or that you like, try and become a detective first. We mean this in the kindest way. Don’t express interest in anyone until you’ve looked them up.
Online resources or social sites are your best friends. Look up the person on LinkedIn, Facebook, or Google. If the person discloses where they work on their profile, look them up using this extra information. This can be especially helpful if the person’s name isn’t unique.
Make sure there isn’t any negative news about them in the first five pages of your Google results. Check whether their social profiles seem genuine or active. Good cues to the person’s behavior could be what they put on their socials. This could help you decide whether or not you have the same values.
If You Can, Make The First Move
You know what you like, and you know when you want it. In any case, making the first move will show your potential groom that you aren’t scared to go for what you want. The only way to show them that you’re interested in what they have to offer is to make the first move.
Many online dating apps have two options: connect and express interest. While it is ok to “connect”, expressing interest shows that you want more and that you’re serious about your intentions.
Be Calculating About The Decisions You Make
For some people, chatting online can go from 0-100 real quick. However, there are those who prefer to think about every step they take. Such people will prefer to SMS/chat for some time until they are sure they are comfortable speaking to you on call.
Deciding whether to chat or call is entirely up to you and the other person. However, we would advise that you take it slow, get to know the other person. Learn their hobbies, ask questions about what they do, their values, and consider whether you’re compatible.
Once you’re sure about these things, you can connect on a deeper level with the other person. Remember that you shouldn’t rush to drop your guard until you’re comfortable and have done your research. While chatting, don’t reveal personal things such as how much money you make or where you live.
Before deciding to meet up for longer dates, meet for shorter ones that only involve coffee or a snack, then decide on dinner when the time is right.
Managing Your Emotions
At this point, there’s still so much that you don’t know about the other person. Therefore, until you’ve had proper dates, and spent time together, you want to manage your emotions as best as you can. We know that finding the perfect groom can be an emotional journey and decision.
However, until intentions are clear on both sides about where you want to go with the relationship, you should be able to control your emotional investment until you’re sure that your perfect groom will allow you to have a healthy relationship with him.
Conclusion
Finding the perfect groom or husband isn’t an easy task. You’ve got to invest time, effort, and sometimes, even money to ensure you meet the right person for you. If you’re a busy professional in an urban setting, things get even harder. However, using dating apps such as Be Together will help you meet people that are like-minded and have the same preferences as you.
