Internet dating has become a huge phenomena. Many guys don’t have time to meet women in person. That’s why dating sites have become really popular.
Meeting women in person takes time and effort. Online dating on the other hand can take seconds. That’s why the internet is such a great tool.
Having a great profile will increase your chances in getting women to message you. The major problem guys have is they fill out profiles as if they’re filling out a resume. They say all the wrong things.
If you check the profile of many guys, you’ll read about what they like to do for fun, what they want in a woman, what they do for a living, etc. The point of the profile is to give a woman a reason to message you. By listing what all the other guys list, women will think you’re just like everyone else.
You want to stimulate the woman's mind. The following are things you should not place in your profile.
- "Ask me" or single worded answers. This tells women you're lazy and how is she suppose to gain interest if you put no effort in the profile?
- "I'm really friendly" Being ‘friendly’ does not excite women.
- "I love this and I love that" Women don't care what you love. They'll care to know after they develop some kind of interest in you. The profile helps set a first impression. You must use it to stimulate the woman’s mind. All guys talk about what they like. You must be different!
- “I only use this site when I’m bored”. All that does is tell the woman you’re not an interesting person. Do you like boring women? Exactly my point.
- Don't "TyPe LiKe THiS" From my understanding, it's the GaNGSTa way of typing. If you want a mature sexy woman, type normal.
- Spelling errors. If you're not good at spelling, I recommend typing your profile in a word processor like Microsoft Word and use spell check. Once that's complete, just copy and paste the corrected info in your profile.
- Leaving your profile blank. I've done tests and got many more replies by women when I have a profile with stuff written in.
- No picture. Always have a picture up. It's best to have from 2-3 pictures of you in different settings. When a woman sees no picture, they avoid speaking to the person. If they see one and the quality is too good, they may think it's a model picture which was taken from a different source. If you have 2-3 they'll believe it's really you. I notice some girls take around 68 pictures of themselves with their webcam. That's over doing it.
- Bragging about anything. All it does is communicate to women that you're insecure and need to show off what you have in order to look cool.
- Picture of yourself topless. This shows insecurity and women think "If he has to show me his chest, he must not be confident in himself!" Some women may message you and say you’re hot, but that’s pretty much it.
The above are things you should avoid if you want better success. Visit your dating site and check out a bunch of profiles. You'll see what I'm talking about.
