Internet Dating Profiles

When your writing a profile for any internet dating site be honest. Above all, be honest with yourself and take some time to figure out what you want to say. Too many people dance around certain issues. Try not to be too general because you will sound like the next person.

This is the perfect place to say what your looking for in a partner. Don’t be afraid to put it all on the line. When I was on Match.com I was very straight forward about who I am and whom I was looking for. I didn’t care if men were turned off by what I wrote. One thing that used to bug me on Match was men who just winked me and didn’t take the time to send an email. Most of the time these men never even read my profile first and based the wink on my pictures. You can always see who viewed your profile online. If they viewed my profile and winked that was ok but if they didn’t even bother to see what I was all about I would not respond. Even if they seems like a good match. In fact, I even went as far as to say I don’t not respond to anyone who just winks.

I was as honest as possible and had strong core beliefs about who I was looking for in a partner. I showed my serious side and my playful side in my profile. Humor is a must for me so if you got what I said that was great. I was not looking for a “hook up” so I stated that fact but sure enough men who were looking to get lucky and use the internet as a pick up bar would write.

Just beware that manyy people do lie and mislead you but if you use common sense you can weed out the players. Do your research and figure out which site meets your requirements. Also, I have said many times on my blog don’t take rejection to heart. It’s a numbers game…sometimes it takes ten no thank you for one I would like to meet you. Go with you gut when writing your profile or responding to others.

    I made this profile on match.com and titled it “Brutal Honesty.” Not too much luck so far. Women all say they want honesty, but i’ve found that’s rarely the case, at least for the first impression. Just thought you might find my profile interesting since a lot of my friends had a good laugh. Any advice or comments you’d like to send my way would be very welcom.

    About me and what I’m looking for

    I like who I am, although i realize I have faults. I think I’m a pretty complex person, and that is good and bad. When people first meet me, they probably think i’m more simple minded than I really am. I’m not always that confident when I first meet people. I’m a very deep thinker but I don’t always show that side of me. At least not until I get to know someone. I can be fun and crazy if i’m in the right situation and with the right people. I definitly don’t have a big ego and I wouldn’t say i’m cocky. I can be a very emotional guy and sometime I think I’m too sensitive for my own good. That doesn’t mean I’m a total wuss though. I can be very vulnerable, but I also have a big heart. I have a sick and vulgar sense of humor at times so if you’re easily offended you probably won’t be able to handle me. I have opinions, but i don’t think i’m opinionated. I’m always up for a good discussion and I’m always willing to change my views on things if I’ve been proven wrong. I’m very openminded. I wouldn’t mind finding a someone who’s got a little bit of hippie or artsiness in her, but I don’t like to limit possibilities with labels. I definitly need someone who can communicate with me on some sort of deeper level than current fashion trends. I’m looking for someone who’s an individual and is proud of who they are, because I’m proud of who I am. If you think you’re some kind of “princess” please don’t contact me. I’m looking for someone who wants to be my equal. As far as the relationship between men and women goes, i’m for equality in every way. I don’t want someone who’s old fashioned in the sense that she feels men and women should conform to certain roles or stereotypes. What i’m trying to say is I’d like to meet someone I can really connect with.I just want to find someone I can connect with

    Well, ladies if anyone is interested in Adam’s profile write me and let me know. I find him very interested and complex. I don’t care for his profile title but his content is great. So if you want honest this is a great example.
