TAMARA’S QUOTE
OF THE MONTH
“No one can love you
more that you love
yourself. You set the
bar on love.”
—Tamara Green, LCSW
Dear Tamara
I am a single woman and interested in a long-term relationship. My
friends convinced me put up a profile on an online dating site. Since I’ve
never done this before, can you give me an idea of what men are looking
for? What are the dos and don’ts in the online dating world?
Thanks,
Single and Ready
Dear Single and Ready
Great questions! There are just as
many men as women looking to
find fulfilling relationships. Men
are hardwired to please and be
helpful. They truly want happiness
for their partner. Therefore, one
of the most important things

to portray in your online dating
profile is that you are already
happy and leading an interesting
and wonderful life.
Subconsciously, men are looking
for an approving and loving
mother, so being kind, feminine,
upbeat, positive, and validating in
your correspondence with them
and on dates are key.
Did you know that online dating
is the number one way that most
singles find their lifetime partners?
Therefore, the first on the list of
“to dos” is exactly what you’re
doing—get your profile up on a
dating site. Here are more tips:

SITE DOS:
•
Your profile should delight
the men reading it. Give
details about you that are
interesting and intriguing.
For example, “When we
meet, remind me to tell you
about my adventures in
Africa.”
