Gary Chapman's The 5 Love Languages

FAQ
How can I determine if my online date has serious intentions?
If you are serious about dating someone who isn’t looking for sex but would like to find love, it is important to take the time and get to know them.
If they seem too busy to meet up with friends or family, this could indicate that they want to spend time alone together.
They may have also been on many dates in the past, which would indicate they have been dating other people.
This is a red flag that the person doesn't want others to see them, and they may not care about true love.
You should always be honest when it comes to dating, so tell them how you feel and why you think they might be worth pursuing further.
This will allow them to understand your position and give you both the chance to see if it works out.
What are some red flags for online dating?
When looking for love on the internet, you should avoid a few things at all costs.
First, don’t expect too much of someone who doesn’t have photos of themselves. If they want to see yours, they'll send theirs first.
If they aren't able to answer your questions within 24 hours of you speaking, then it's possible they have just created an online account and are not able to complete it.
And finally, if they ask you to participate in a video chat, don't do it. It is not worth the risk of being caught on camera by anyone who could be watching.
Is Bumble good for serious relationships?
The app allows users the ability to create profiles where they can upload photos, and short messages to other members. The app then matches users according to mutual interest. Both may exchange direct messages with each other if they are willing to date.
There is also an option for women who wish to find men with similar interests. It can be downloaded from iTunes for free.
Bumble is often compared to Tinder as it functions in a similar way.
Bumble is different from Tinder in that users can't see the photos of potential matches until after they send a message.
