Single soldiers taking part in online dating must ensure they follow the right etiquette when meeting someone new.<\/p>\n

According to mygloss.com, it can be easy for some people to forget about the individual sat at the other computer, when reading their instant messages and emails from a love interest.<\/p>\n

"If someone came up to you at a party and introduced themselves, would you just turn around and ignore them? Probably not.<\/p>\n

"The same rules of etiquette that apply offline are valid online," the news source notes.<\/p>\n

When people are certain they get along via the internet, they might consider a face-to-face meeting, as the article explains this will tell them whether or not they have a real connection.<\/p>\n

This was certainly true of Christine and Chris Rae, who met for a lunch date after becoming online penpals, the Daily Mail recently reported.<\/p>\n

They went on to get married, just four months after they began interacting online.<\/p>\n
