Why TallSingles.co.uk?

I’m sure plenty of people will ask themselves, why tallsingles.co.uk?  In this article, I’m going to explain why I (all 6’7’’ of me) the CEO, thinks you should join tallsingles.co.uk

Are you tall?

You should choose TallSingles.co.uk if you are tall and single.  By tall we really mean above average height. We pride ourselves in making sure that the single people on our site are tall, that’s men and women over 5’5″.

Let me explain why I started tallsingles.co.uk, it will help you decide why tallsingles.co.uk?

Tallsingles.co.uk was started by me, that is a normal guy who just happened to be single and above 6’7’’ (so above average male height).

Having tried the traditional dating methods, that’s trying to meet people in bars, clubs, social groups and hobby groups and not having any success.

I then tried speed dating, still without success as I found that to be way too upfront. I then decided to try internet dating and like most people, I looked at a couple of sites and eventually chose Match.com.

Match wasn’t for me

The problem I found on Match.com was that it didn’t have that “niche” to it. It wasn’t just for the taller person and let’s face it our dating requirements are a little different to the shorter person.Why do I say this?

Why do I say this? Well, it wasn’t specifically for tall people looking to meet tall people, or even tall women looking to meet taller men.

It was just a site for everyone! And tall people aren’t everyone.

It got me thinking, is there a niche site for tall people?

So once I was more used to the idea of being on a dating site, I thought I wonder if there is one for just tall people.Well, there were a few and I have written honest comparisons on them to my site on here. Quite simply they didn’t feel me with a whole lot of joy and they didn’t seem all that tailored to the taller person. So I decided to start my own site, dedicated to tall single people.

Well, there were a few and I have written honest comparisons on them to my site on here. Quite simply they didn’t feel me with a whole lot of joy and they didn’t seem all that tailored to the taller person.

So I decided to start my own site, dedicated to tall single people.

Not only did I build the site, but at the same time I thought, what about a community.  That community is FREE for anyone to join.

It’s a brilliant Facebook group called “What’s the weather like up there” (We hope you like the name as much as us!), it’s great to share tall stories like this one, or tall humour, jokes, basically anything tall-related. You can join by clicking HERE.

As we are “niche” and don’t offer all of the benefits of some of the bigger more mainstream sites we are slightly cheaper. But that’s not to say we don’t have a lot of members. At the time of writing this post, we have 1.5 million members all up and down the UK, of all ages, religions and backgrounds. But we all have one thing in common, we are all tall!

So I hope you now know why you should choose tallsingles.co.uk and why we want you to join!

 

Still undecided?  We have some really honest blog posts comparing us to other larger mainstream sites you might have heard of.  You can check those out here:

So now we have answered why tallsingles.co.uk, it’s time for you to take action.

So now you know why, what’s stopping you.  You can join up for FREE by clicking HERE.  And if you drop your email address in the box below we will give you a code for a one-month PREMIUM upgrade, so you can really see what we have to offer!

Tips for the perfect profile photo: Part III

In this article, we look at what additional photos you should upload to your profile.

In prior posts, we have learnt what makes a good and bad main profile photo. The links to those articles are here:

Part II: What makes a good profile photo?

Part I: What makes a bad profile photo?

Our site along with many others allow you to upload more photos than just your profile photos.

These will not be used as your main profile photo, but should someone take an interest in you they can browse these to decide if they want to meet up.

So let’s explore what additional photos you should upload to your profile:

1. Let the background spark a conversation

If you have a nice photo with something of interest in the background (such as a famous landmark, venue, place) it can help the person contacting you to come up with their initial email.

So it’s a winner on two accounts, firstly it helps make you look interesting and secondly it helps someone contacting you to come up with the initial message.

2. Upload an activity shot

Nobody really likes to be with very lazy people.

OK, you don’t have to show yourself as a marathon runner, but if you can show yourself taking part in one of your favourite activities it shows you are definitely not a couch potato.

Perhaps you enjoy hiking, or cycling, or white water rafting? All of these would be great as an activity shot.

3. With friends

It’s nice to see someone socialising, so why not add just the one photo with you at a bar with some friends, or in a pub or perhaps at a special event?

Please please don’t upload any of the ones where you are drunk and crashed out on the couch!

4. Fun/silly photo (only if it’s your thing)

By all means, upload a photo of you doing something silly, but only if it really goes with your personality. People always think that being fun/silly is an attractive feature and to some extent it is, but its definitely not when it’s forced or not true.

Conclusion

So there you have it, that’s our round-up of what additional photos you should upload to your profile.

Don’t forget to go back and take a look at the other articles:

Tips for the perfect profile photo: Part II

In our last post, we covered things that made a bad profile photo, you can get to that post by clicking HERE.

In this post, we explore what makes a good profile photo?

1. Smile

Show that great smile of yours! Everyone has a great smile and using it on your profile picture will definitely help to get peoples attention.

People are drawn to happy people that’s a fact and so use this to your advantage on your profile picture.

2. Look like someone you’d want to meet

The simple rule is to think about someone you would like to meet as a friend (same sex) and look like them.

3. All natural

Mostly applies to women, go easy on the makeup for your profile photo.

This is just so that you come across natural. The more natural you look the more you will appeal to others.

4. Good lighting

A well-lit photo makes a huge difference. A photo taken outside in natural light will always be much better than one taken indoors under artificial light.

5. Recent

Make sure its a recent photo, don’t use the one from a few years ago when you were a little bit thinner, or you felt you looked slimmer.

If you’re going to meet up with a member for a date, they will probably realise that its an old photo and let’s face it you never want to start a relationship with a lie!

Tips for taking the perfect picture

1. No DIY

Very simple get someone else to take your photo.

2. Don’t pose

Try and make the photo look as natural as possible. The more natural the photo the more people will be drawn to you and your profile. The simple rule is no-body likes fake.

What makes a bad profile photo?

Firstly, never ever underestimate the power of your profile photo. It is the first thing that someone will see when they search for members, so it must be good.

A bit like walking into a packed bar trying to find a date the “traditional” way, the first thing someone is usually attracted to is your face and it is no different online!

When we look at what makes a bad profile photo, there are a number of things you shouldn’t do:

1. Fuzzy or bad quality

Make sure your photo is clear.Fuzzy and unclear photos just don’t get looked at as it looks like the person is either a) not bothered about dating and therefore not serious as they haven’t taken the time to take a clear picture or b) wanting to hide their picture and there is no need to do that as if you meet up at some point in the future you will see each other face to face anyway.

Fuzzy and unclear photos just don’t get looked at as it looks like the person is either:

b) wanting to hide their picture and there is no need to do that as if you meet up at some point in the future you will see each other face to face anyway.

2. Selfies (or mirror shots)

These just look terrible, usually, the photo is taken at an angle, misses half their face and the lighting is totally wrong.If you take the photo looking in a mirror your arm obscures part of your picture. The simple rule is

The simple rule is to get someone else to take the photo.

3. Why the long face?

When have you ever looked at someone looking miserable and thought wow, I really want to meet that person? Answer: Never.Same applies

Same applies to a photo, so think happy and look happy when it is being taken.

4. Photos with someone else

This just confuses the person looking at your profile as they won’t be able to work out which one you are as you’re not going to put arrows on it! Which we don’t recommend!

Conclusion

So that is what makes a bad profile photo, in our next article we will discuss what makes a good profile picture.

What is the difference between free and paid membership on TallSingles.co.uk

Difference between free and paid membership, paid membership, free membership, dating sites
Difference between free and paid membership

People often join tallsingles.co.uk as a free member but they don’t always know the difference between free and paid membership.

In case you didn’t know all dating sites say they are free to join and use, but that isn’t really the whole story.  Even PlentyofFish.com which is widely seen as a FREE site, has a premium upgrade.

So what does joining for FREE get you?

So you can always join an online dating site for free and TallSingles.co.uk is no different. Joining for free on dating sites allows you to:

  • Upload a photo and complete your profile
  • Search for members and look at their profiles
  • Receive emails from tallsingles.co.uk informing you of members who have uploaded new photos, new members, informing you that you have received a message and finally at times we have excellent special offers.

Note the one thing missing in this list which you can’t do under FREE membership, READ AND RESPOND to other memebers messages.

So why does FREE membership exist then?

So why do we have this level of membership? Well, there are many reasons, here are the most important:

1. People are still scared of internet dating

Believe it or not, people are very scared of internet dating. We believe that by giving a free membership you can take a look around, see it’s not all that frightening and upgrade to paid membership if you want to.

2. To find out if there are there registered members on the site that you would like to date living in your immediate area.

It’s obviously very important that the site has people registered in your area who you fancy.

It’s not worth joining a site if the one person you fancy lives in Edinburgh while you live in London!

Joining for free allows you to browse the members, run some searches and find out if there are people registered who live in your area that you fancy.

3. Try before you buyYou can try the site before you purchase

You can try the site before you purchase a membership. Once you have paid for membership, you can cancel within 14 days for a full refund.

If you cancel after 14 days, your membership will not be renewed but you will not receive a refund for the unused term of your membership. So it’s always good to try before you buy and be sure that membership is the right thing for you.

So should you jump straight into paid membership then?

We think you should use the FREE membership to take a look around the site and decide if it’s something you like.You should NEVER pay for

You should NEVER pay for a membership until you are convinced that know the best site to join.

Look at what paid membership gives you

As mentioned above you cannot email members to arrange a date without upgrading to a premium membership. But what other benefits does paid membership give you?

As well as the benefits of free membership, paid membership allows you to:

  • Email other members
  • Read messages that have been sent by other members
  • Upload a video profile
  • Complete a dating diary
  • Put yourself in the spotlight
  • Send gifts to members
  • Chat online
  • Subscribe to mobile alerts.

So why do we charge a fee for this membership?

Well at the end of the day we are a business and we have costs to cover. We have to cover substantial advertising costs, so that we get regular new memberships, we have to pay for web hosting, we have to ensure that our payment methods are secure, we need to make sure we have a call centre that can be contacted for free and we have a duty of care to our members.

 

So there you have it, that is the difference between free and paid membership.

Now the next question you should be asking yourself is… Do you know the difference between a mainstream and niche site?  If not you can read all about that HERE.

 

Avoid awkward silences: Questions to ask on the first date.

A boy thinking of a question

Questions to ask on the first date.

So do you know what questions to ask on the first date? If you are one of those people who get nervous about going on a date and you’re frightened that at some point you will run out of things to talk about.

As we discussed in our post “Should you plan your first date?” It can be an idea to have a few thought-provoking questions to ask on your first date in your pocket just to make you feel that little bit safer.

You want some conversational questions

It would be good to have questions that your date would love to talk about so that it gets the conversation flowing again.

So we suggest you read their dating profile and latest emails again, pick out anything they have discussed or talked about in detail, hobbies they may have mentioned and places they have been to when travelling.

During this process, you are trying to build up a picture of their lifestyle, things that motivate them, things that they enjoy and things that interest them. These should all be things that they will want to talk about.All of this information helps you to create a list of questions to ask on the first date.

All of this information helps you to create a list of questions to ask on the first date.

Everyone loves to talk about travel

So travel is top of the list, people love to talk about places they have been to and visited, especially if they love travelling.

So firstly have you been anywhere that they have also travelled to, then you could start talking about that and they are bound to feel compelled to join in.If not have they been anywhere that you would love to travel to, if that’s the case you can ask them about it, discuss the culture, the way of life, good things to go and see, try to avoid the usual type questions if you can.

If not have they been anywhere that you would love to travel to, if that’s the case you can ask them about it, discuss the culture, the way of life, good things to go and see, try to avoid the usual type questions if you can.

Then, of course, you could always mention places you would like to visit to see if they would too. But if you go down that route then make sure you have done some research on that location so you can mention why you would want to visit and what you would like to do when you’re there.

Most people love the Theatre and Films

Theatre I think is a brilliant conversation point.That’s because there is a good chance you might have seen the same play, or failing that it’s easy to talk about a play, if you haven’t seen it you can ask about the storyline, the plot, the characters, the music even the set.If you have seen it, you can ask what they thought about a particular moment in the play, did they see it as a good portrayal of the story, which character did they like the most? Films also go into this category and again they are very easy to talk about.

Again bring some life into the conversation by asking how they got into it, what they enjoy, if they have won any awards or played for their country for example. How often they play? Do they enjoy being in a team? Have they played for long? Etc.

Some people enjoy cooking but not everyone, be careful with this topic.

Cooking and restaurants would be next on my list as I think everyone has an opinion on it even if they are not a good cook themselves.Do they enjoy going to good restaurants? Have they been to a Gordon Ramsey restaurant? Do they cook themselves? Would they class themselves as a good cook? What’s there killer dish? What the strangest thing they have eaten?

Do they enjoy going to good restaurants? Have they been to a Gordon Ramsey restaurant? Do they cook themselves? Would they class themselves as a good cook? What’s there killer dish? What the strangest thing they have eaten?

So what should you avoid?

I think I would avoid asking questions on a first date that cover work.  Unless you know they have a really interesting job that you know they would love to talk about.

Other Topics to avoid

This is our list of topics you definitely want to try and avoid on your first date!

Previous relationships
Politics
Football
Shopping

So there you go, that should avoid an awkward silence and fingers crossed you will be on to that second date in next to no time.

So that’s our list, so you have any questions to ask on the first date that isn’t listed above.  Let us know by leaving a comment below.

 

Don’t forget to take a look at our other articles on dating:

Notepad and pen

Congratulations you have got your first date

Oh yes, you have got your first date, now all you need to decide is should you plan your first date? By that we mean, how much planning should go into it before you meet up?

The venue needs to be planned and possibly booked

Well let’s establish one thing straight away and that is that of course, you are going to plan the venue for your date as it may need booking.  Plus, of course, you have to let the other person know where you intend to meet them.

Is that all you should plan?

But the bigger question is how much should you plan for after that? When you plan your first date, the answer to that one comes down to what sort of person you are.

Are you confident?

Let me explain, someone who is very confident and self-assured will probably not need to plan their date as by their very nature they will not be all that nervous and conversation should flow very easily. Contrast that to someone who is not very confident and lacks self-esteem and is worried about how they look. They are obviously going to be shy, perhaps a little withdrawn and nervous on the first date. The conversation may not flow naturally and sweaty palms may be an issue. So let’s look at the how to plan your first date, depending on whether you are an overconfident person or a shy person.

If you are an overconfident person

So what would planning do for them? Well for our overconfident single person, not a lot. I think that the only thing they need to be cautious about is rambling on about themselves and not giving their date any chance to talk. They need to be aware of this from the outset and remember (not plan) to let their date speak and to listen to the conversation.

If you are a shy person

It’s a different story for our shy, retired single person. For them, a little bit of planning might get them out of an awkward silence. Before they go on the date they should think of some good conversation starters that could just avoid the silence they so dread. Things to think about would be “Do you enjoy travelling? where is your favourite destination? Do you play any sports? Where do you work? What do you do there?

Now the only problem with planning is that you may be so focused on getting those questions out that you don’t listen to the conversation.

Ok, so our conclusion

So we don’t think planning is vital, listening is the number 1 thing, however, a couple of questions in the back pocket could be the get out of jail card you need in that awkward silence.

Do you plan your first date? If you have in the past, has it helped?  If you haven’t do you wish you had? We would love to hear your story, just drop it in the comments below.

Dating a tall person

Ladder, Tall, Dating a tall person
Might you need a ladder?

Dating a tall person quite literally has its ups and downs!

So what should you expect when you are dating a tall person? Are there any changes to when you date someone not so tall? Well, we asked our tall members the question and this is what they came up with.

Clothing

When dating a tall person you have to be conscious of the fact that they will find it difficult to buy in-fashion tall clothing.  Don’t expect them to follow fashion trends. Although clothes retailers are still extending their tall range and many large department stores do have tall clothing sections, on the whole, it is still difficult to get in-fashion clothing. Arm length in long sleeve shirts/jumpers/coats is still very much an issue if you suffer from long arms so don’t get frustrated if they do try and pull their sleeves down a couple of times a day!

Cure – There is no cure until clothes retailers learn that the general population are getting taller.

Booking theatre/concert seats

Tall people will generally want to be very specific about where they want to seat as they will want to be in a seat that has plenty of legroom. Unless it is a surprise booking I would make them book the seats as they will have a good idea of where they will want to sit. This will generally always be an aisle seat and most theatres have a row where the legroom is simply better

Cure – When booking most concerts/theatres a seating plan can be viewed which is great. For theatre seat’s theatremonkey has a great review for all theatres on the best seats for extra legroom.

Travel – Car

Travel is a big issue for most tall people and each mode of transport generally has specific issues. Cars are on the whole ok if they can take the front passenger seat can be taken, although still plan in advance as in some cars with a tall person in the front nobody can sit behind, so your then you’re down to a car that can carry a maximum of 4 people, not 5.

Cure – On the whole, if you’re going by car let the tallest person drive as they will have a car suitable for them.

Travel – Train

On long train journeys, you can usually book your specific seat as long as you book in advance. Tall people would again generally go for the ones that face each other (as long as there isn’t a table) and aisle seats.

Cure – Book in advance so that you can book a specific seat. Most train companies will bring up a seating planner so you can choose the best tall person seat.

Travel – Bus/coaches

When it comes to dating a tall person, buses and coaches are probably the worst modes of transport. There are very few good seats for tall people and even standing on them is an issue as the headroom is so poor. The general view from the members was to avoid these at all cost.

Travel – Underground

There is no doubt about it certain underground lines are better than others, the Metropolitan line, for example, has plenty of headroom. On the downside, the deeper/older lines such as the Northern, Victoria and Central have very limited headroom. But on the whole, all of the seats on all lines offer very good seated legroom as the seats run along the side of the tube and face inwards. Also, there is generally no issue with headroom when getting to the desired platform.

Cure – Where possible try and avoid the deeper tube lines. Try to travel at off-peak times so that the seating is available.

Staying away

Again our members tell us that tall people can take some time in choosing the right accommodation. Bars at the end of beds can be a nightmare, as can low ceilings in hotels and every tall person knows about the dreaded low shower head that only washes their feet!

Cure – Again it comes down to planning and selecting the right accommodation before you leave.

Eating

In general, big people have bigger appetites as they are generally taller and through that will consume more energy in the day.
Cure – There is no cure, just something to take note of when they go for seconds!

So should you worry about dating a tall person?

So, all in all, there are no real differences when it comes to dating someone tall. Just a few things that they have to consider and be careful of over shorter people.

Have our members missed anything? Have you had experience of dating someone tall? Has this turned you off the idea of dating someone tall?

We would love to hear from you, drop your comments below.

Why do women prefer tall men?

Tall man, woman, tall man and women holding hands, love, why do women prefer tall men?
Tall man with shorter woman holding hands

In this article we explore what it is about tall men that women find attractive.  I mean you read it lots, but why do women prefer tall men?

Well, researchers say it’s all down to their perceived fighting ability!

According to a new theory, women are more attracted to statuesque males because in evolutionary terms they are better at fighting – taller men can throw a more powerful punch making them more useful to the opposite sex.

The scientists also found that our prehistoric ancestors punched hardest when they stood on two legs, suggesting that fighting was the driving force behind the evolution of upright walking.

Sexual selection plays its part

‘From the perspective of sexual selection theory, women are attracted to powerful males, because powerful males can protect them and their children from other males,’ says Dr David Carrier, from the University of Utah.

‘Early in human evolution, an enhanced capacity to strike downward on an opponent may have given tall males a greater capacity to compete for mates and to defend their resources,’ he says. ‘If this were true, females who chose to mate with taller males would have had greater fitness for survival.’

They are better protection

Dr Carrier studied the power of punches by male martial arts experts and boxers. According to the journal PLoS One, Men hit with more force when they were standing and could punch twice as hard when striking downwards.

Could it all be in the genes?

Some scientists have argued that women prefer taller men because their height indicates good genes but Dr Carrier insists: ‘If that were the whole story, I would expect the same to be true for men – than men would be attracted to taller women – but men are attracted to women of average height or even shorter.’

There is no shortage of surveys telling us how the tall, athletic male makes a better lover, earns more and rises up the social ladder faster.

It is not all in favor of the taller man!

But shorter men do have advantages. They tend to be funnier, as, since their teenage years, they will have been trying to distract girls from their height.

On the other hand, tall men can be clumsy. They have to crouch to get through doorways and they never fit on your sofa. See our article on the “32 absolute worst things about being tall”

After reading our article, would you like a taller man in your life?

So after reading this would you like to date a taller man?  Well, that’s the reason why we set up tallsingles.co.uk, a dating site for the taller person.  Why not give it a go?

The problems tall people have when finding love

Lady on tiptoes, hug, embrace, kissing, problems tall people have when finding love
Lady on tiptoes kissing man

Being tall may have its perks, but it also comes with its problems. In fact, there are many problems tall people have when finding love. One of the main problems is the fact that it is very difficult to find love. Most short and average sized people tend to steer clear of those who taller. There are a number of reasons for this, and we are going to take a little look at them on this page.

Why do short and average sized people stay away from those who are taller?

One of the main reasons as to why people sign up to sites like TallSingles (more on that soon) is the fact that height issues are posing a serious problem in their love life. It seems that women have it slightly worse when they are tall. Most men prefer shorter women, and women tend to prefer taller men. Obviously, if the difference is absolutely huge then there will be a big problem. For the most part though, tall men should be fine.

Is it ok for tall women to date a shorter man?

At the moment, it seems as though it is almost a taboo for a tall woman to date a shorter man. I have read horror stories that the efforts that even the prettiest ladies out there need to go through in order to find a decent man to get into a relationship with. Most of the time it is because it is because they are far too tall. Most men seem to steer clear of woman that are higher than them. This is because height is traditionally seen as ‘strength’. In the eyes of a few people, the taller you are, the stronger you are. Men do not want to be with a woman that towers over them. For most men it is embarrassing. This is why the majority of women tend to end up with men that around their height (i.e. men who are just as tall). The problem is, finding them is incredibly difficult. There are tall men out there, but it seems that all of the good ones have been snapped up, or you are just not looking in the right places. Trust me, it is harder to find a decent tall man than it is to find somebody that is ‘average height’.

You don’t want to have to carry around a pile of books to share a kiss

People also need to realize that expressing love is a lot more difficult with a height difference too. I don’t know if you have ever tried kissing somebody that is considerably taller than you, but it is difficult. Not to mention the fact that making love to somebody with a considerable height difference is slightly more difficult (if your heads aren’t in line, then that is not romantic at all). Most shorter people want to avoid situations like this. As a result, they avoid taller people.

So how do tall people find love and overcome the problems tall people have when finding love?

As you can see, tall people have a lot of problems when it comes to finding love. We believe that they should not have these problems though. Tall people deserve love too! This is why we have founded TallSingles. This dating site is dedicated to getting tall people the partner of their dreams. Why not check it out today? You will never have to worry about height issues again!

In fact, this is the very reason why I started this blog and site.  You can read more about my story here.

We also want to build a community of tall people together so we can discuss anything about being tall.  Like how do you respond to those annoying tall questions, where to buy the best tall clothing, how do you cope with tall life? It’s a Facebook group called “What’s the weather like up there?” and you too can join it by clicking here.
