These will all be questions you will come across sometime in the dating process

Are you looking for a life partner? Are you willing to relocate and what does that mean for your family?
Now that you’re a little more comfortable with the idea of dating and your family is too, think about the future
Be patient about meeting someone. If they are genuine they will have similar concerns about you being genuine too. If the person is pushy about meeting you too soon this is not a good sign. Move on, even if you’re developing feelings. Easier to cut loose now than when it’s too late.” You can find all of Kathy’s advice at senior-dating.org
Online dating is filled with difficult way to decipher how someone feels about you by adding things such as winks, this is an easy way to say to another person that you are interested them without any pressure or commitment and of course no obligation to message you or wink back at you.
Always remember that you’re not the only person who might be learning to online date, so if someone doesn’t get back to you or it takes them a while to get back to you, don’t take it personal. They may not be interested, didn’t notice your message or wink, have little internet access, are shy, or generally don’t know what they are doing.
Messaging another person. Remember to take it slow, ask them about their additional interests other than what is said on their profile, of course read their profile first. If you agree to meet in person, remember to find a safe public location. Always notify someone you are close to as to where you are going. If you have a cell phone, remember to bring it with you just in case.
Meeting in person. It’s so exciting when you finally meet someone in person. Beware that a profile is often the reflection of what a person wants to be rather than who they really are (or what the writer thinks the person is), meeting them in person will help you discover that inner self.
