General Information
Q. Why go to an online dating site when I can meet people out in public?
A. This, as with many facts of personal life, boils down to individual choice. Everybody is different, and some simply find it far more comfortable to meet people online and get a feel for a person that way rather than being thrown into the sometimes awkward position of meeting a stranger for the first time.
Others thrive on this traditional method of meeting people, but whoever you are and whatever your preferences, the stigmas once associated with online dating are quickly receding.
With Dateroom you can check out whoever you want completely anonymously and then get in touch if and when the time is right for you.
No pressure, no embarrassment. Give us a try and you may be pleasantly surprised!

Q. How can I create a good profile that people will respond to?
A. There are some simple tips to remember when creating your profile:
- Remember, while it is up to you how much or little you share about yourself, other people are more likely to want to contact you if they have a good feel for who you are and what you're about. On the other side of the coin, a little well placed intrigue never hurt anybody!
- If you are able, upload a photo of yourself for your profile picture.face recognition is an instinctive part of getting to know somebody and forming bonds with them, so you are more likely to be contacted by people if they know what you look like! If you are unable or unsure how to upload a photo of yourself, contact us and we will see what we can do to help you.
- Take a little time to think about what you are writing about yourself. Of course, honesty is always the best policy and the best advice is just to 'be yourself' - detail what you really like doing, what you don't like doing, things you are for and against etc. and you'll find that people will be responsive, especially those that are like-minded. Don't try too hard to make yourself sound interesting or your pastimes impressive - for the most part people's real thoughts, feelings and interests speak for themselves and with such a vibrant and lively community on DateRoom there is always going to be someone out there who finds your qualities attractive.
