International dating should be a safe, happy, and memorable experience.

Needless to say, the growing number of successful relationships as a result of international dating continues to encourage men who are interested in finding love among foreign ladies.

With hundreds of dating sites in existence today, men and women from all over the world are more than excited to test out the waters with someone who could potentially be their perfect match.

Exciting, right?

However, despite how easy and convenient it is to communicate with someone online, there are still instances where a number of individuals fall prey to all kinds of romance scams. It can vary from giving out personal information and credit card details to the wrong person, down to suddenly not hearing from someone after having had several friendly conversations.

While there are many fruitful ventures that the world of international dating has brought, it should always be a priority to ensure your safety before availing any kind of service. Through online chat, video calls, text messages, or emails, you can never be too safe unless you know what to look out for.

It is therefore our job to help you spot the red flags when dating foreign women.

1. Inconsistent communication.

If the woman you’re interacting with has genuine intentions about finding a romantic partner, she will not hesitate to show it through her words and actions. Say you started out having a few conversations online, but if she doesn’t feel a spark with you, she’ll most likely tell you or just stop communicating with you for good.

However, if you happen to have inconsistent communication, it could be that she’s entertaining someone else, or trying to bide her time to get what she needs from you.

2. Hesitant to meet in person.

Yes, having consistent communication is important, but if she doesn’t have any interest in meeting you in person, it only means that she’s not interested in you at all.

3. Asking for financial assistance.

This is one of the most obvious giveaways. Why would someone you barely know, let alone lives in a whole different country, ask for money from you? You already know the answer to that, so you might as well move on to the next person.

4. Has no interest in future goals.

Communication is probably the most determining factor to know if someone is being serious with you or is trying to rip you off. Throughout your conversations, it’s likely that you’ll talk about your future goals, such as looking forward to meeting up, having your first date, traveling to a foreign country, and so on.

If the foreign lady you’re supposedly dating doesn’t seem to be showing interest in these things, you can bet that she’s not looking for anything long term.

5. Too much emotional baggage.

We all have our bad experiences and sad stories, but if a woman wants to create a romantic connection with you, she shouldn’t bring those up when you’re still in the process of getting to know each other. Not only is it discouraging, but it will also cause you unnecessary stress. What’s worse is if you entertain this too much, you might end up sending out money because you actually feel sorry for what she’s going through.

6. One-sided conversations.

The same with not showing any interest in future goals, it’s a major red flag if she doesn’t show any interest in you. Never go for a woman who’s only focused on answering questions and doesn’t make the effort to know more about you.

Red Flags for International Dating Sites

Finding a foreign girlfriend is all fun and games until your bank account gets hacked and you’re left with nothing but a screen that says true love is just around the corner — and that would be the biggest irony of them all.

As such, it’s not only with foreign women that you’ll have to be careful. It’s equally important to look out for anything suspicious on every foreign dating site as well. The following are some good examples:

1. No verification process.

Member profiles should be verified in order to assure other members and users that the website itself, along with its services, is legitimate and operating legally. Without this, it’s incredibly easy for scammers to sign up and use fake identities.

2. No company contact information.

One good way of knowing that a dating site has your best interest in mind is if you can conveniently reach out to them whenever you may have questions. They should always be ready to assist you when needed.

3. Offering perks in exchange for personal details.

Some dating sites are more on collecting personal information rather than promoting happy relationships. That said, they would offer all kinds of perks and benefits as long as you give them the details they need — a big no-no.

4. Bad reviews.

Almost every website on the internet has its fair share of reviews and testimonials from previous and current users. If you notice that the site you were interested in signing up with has a lot of bad ratings and reviews, be extra cautious about what you do next. Take the time to do a little more research until you can confidently decide if you should go on with it or not.

Better Safe Than Sorry

Being able to spot the aforementioned red flags will only guarantee your safety before you go meet and date beautiful foreign women. It’s just like how you’re careful about living life in general — you watch out for the things that you know will cause you harm. But even if there are bound to be misfortunes, it shouldn’t discourage you from taking the opportunity to date internationally.

The internet has given us countless opportunities to pursue the things we love, and it continues to open doors for more meaningful relationships and connections to occur. It is, therefore, up to us how we can steer clear of people with malicious intentions.

Have patience, be confident, and open your heart to the possibilities. International dating doesn’t have to be a one time thing, you can start out by giving it a try and testing out the waters before committing yourself to anyone or anything. Who knows, the more experienced you are, the better chances you’ll have at finding what you’re looking for.
