Tips on Building an Online Profile
The competition for attention on online dating services is intense.
So intense, in fact, that some people resort to lying or posting outdated
photos to try and attract that next date. It's vital that you are honest
in your profile and through your photos so that you don't meet (or interact)
with others under false pretenses. So then what are some important things
you can do to build a better profile? Here are three specific profile tips
you can use to improve your profile right now.
Avoid Negativity
Have you ever gone out on a first date where the person you were with
complained about his/her work, ex, etc? Such negative talk is a major
turnoff. Likewise, negativity is a major turnoff in your profile. Being
positive is like a magnet. Being negative is like wearing a skunk aroma.
Go From Typical to Unique
Use clever words that are descriptive. Instead of saying "on hot days I
like to go to the ocean or on a hike," say, "on a sizzling day my
adventurous side leads me to traversing the ocean on a sailboat or
discovering a new waterfall that I can cool off under."
Strive to make your profile unordinary by spicing it up sentence by sentence.
Be descriptive, unique, and fun!
Filter Out Unwanteds
Your profile isn't about getting responses. It is about getting responses
from the type of person you are attracted to. Therefore, use descriptions
to help narrow your focus to what you want so that you get responses from
who you're looking for. |
