Online daters ‘need to be attentive’ when hooking up

Single soldiers who find a prospective partner through online dating should endeavour to pay plenty of attention to the other person when meeting up for the first time.

This is because lifestyle expert Leslie Tyler has explained showing an interest in him or her is an advisable way of kicking off a first date, kjrh.com reports.

The specialist claimed individuals should listen to what their dinner mate has to say, as well as thinking up their own questions to ask to show they are interested in what their date is talking about.

Daters should try to keep their sole focus on the other guy or girl and not pay attention to other things that may be going on, Ms Tyler noted.

She observed: "Don't be distracted. Shut off your [mobile] phone or put it on vibrate."

In a recent article for The Frisky, Wendy Atterberry recommended daters should use compliments as a means to begin a successful first meeting.
