Some people don't
believe me when I tell them that most problems with not enough
Responses to your Ad can be fixed just by writing a better Ad.
And then I often take them, real-time, to an Online Dating Site.
I randomly start reading out profiles, and they cannot believe
that so many people write such terrible ads! Maybe it is this
overvalued notion of spontaneity, of writing whatever comes to
your mind, letting it flow, being you - which leads you to write
gibberish in your ads. Say goodbye to any success in Online
Dating with that. Think what would happen if NASA Engineers
became spontaneous.
So stop your Dating shuttle from crashing and read these
examples of common Mistakes in Dating Profiles. Have a laugh,
but be careful, your own profile may have bugs too!

(All
examples are real)
.."I am a funny, witty person...."
Funny and witty people never write that directly. Instead of
saying this, add a touch of humor to your profile.
.."I was just bored, so wrote my profile here..."
A negative attitude. Instead, say, "I am new to this..."
..."I am an Honest, Spontaneous, Creative, Intelligent (..other
personal adjectives) ...person."
Very few people think they are not, so this is very subjective
(same as the fact that 80% people believe that they have an IQ
above average!). Even if true, it is redundant information at
best. Avoid using personal adjectives in your Ad or Profile.
Define yourself concretely-better to say I am a Guitar player in
a Band or I write Novels or I am a practising Doctor than I am
Creative or Intelligent.
..."I want a guy who can make me laugh..."
Comes across as negative-you sound slightly depressed if you
need someone just to make you laugh. Theres plenty of stuff on
the TV to make you laugh, and you are not looking for a joker,
you are looking for a boyfriend, a mate...remember?
..."I like dark haired men, but if you are blond and
good-looking, write me anyway, maybe you can change my mind...."
Turn-off to blond men. Make up your mind, if you are looking for
only dark haired men, just say that. Dont play both sides of the
coin, generally backfires. Better not to say anything if you are
not sure.
..."I like taking walks by the ocean, or watching TV, or going
camping with my friends..."
Unimportant details. Most people like these things, and these
are hardly important details in finding a partner (it is
unlikely you wont like going out with someone just because they
dont like walking the beach or watching TV with you) . Your
hobbies is where you put these things, and more specifically-e.g.
Camping, or Watching Basketball.
..."I am looking for a REAL man/woman, with all the letters of
REAL..."
Everyone is real. Basically, dont worry, sounds like you have
had some bad experiences in relationships, but thats over now.
Come with a positive attitude to Online Dating, and just meet
the people. Then when you email them and meet them in person,
you can decide if they are real or not.
..."I am not interested in guys who are bitter and boring..."
No one is. Use the Ad mostly to tell what you like, not what you
dont like. Agreeability is a must have in first introductions. |
