Online Dating: Mistakes Men Make In Their Profiles

Posted: Jan 31, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

Internet Dating, what a crazy phenonmenon, we can now online 'shop' for a- mate! As fun as this seems, you know know what kills any attraction instantly, even through a computer screen? A really creepy profile. Or even just a little creepy.

Men, if you even seem a little weird online, women will NOT be lining up to meet you. We all watch TV and are all scared of being the next news story. What's sad though, is that a woman will see a specifc profile and write the man off immediately, but a man will see the same profile- and think he seems cool. Men are from Mars...

..Anyway, I have compiled a list of things we women very much wish that men would stop posting (unless you really are a weirdo, in that case keep doing so we can differentiate):

1) Your pictures: While we understand that men find hunting fun, and you are very proud of that big buck you bagged- it really doesn't need to be featured in your profile picture. Actually that's just a turn off and for some women, a complete deal-breaker, so knock it off. In addition, if you joined a DATING site generally used for DATING, we don't need to see most of your body parts just yet. That includes, but is not limited to: faceless pictures of abs, tattoos on questionable body parts, and PLEASE no penis pics. Really. It's just scary.

2) Spelling and Grammar: No Chatspeak/textspeak. While I may first be impressed that you know how to make a heart using symbols, I would also like to know that you can correctly spell three letter words. Generally we women would like to think of the man we are dating as smart. Intelligence is very attractive. Typing lik dys, cuz ur jus cool like dat.. not so much.

3) Your Expectations: I know that you want to find the woman of your dreams, I totally get that. As it so happens, I'm looking for my very own Prince Charming. But if you are an overweight, jobless, fifty-five year old- it really isn't reasonable to be seeking a svelte, twenty-three year old to support you. Also, how you kindly listed out forty-three qualities you want in a woman, including a passion for laundry, blowjobs, contact sports, and culinary mastery.. well, thanks for being so descriptive and organized! But don't be shocked when you get, um, no replies. Get real, mister.

4) Expecting Women to Have no Expectations: Saying things like "I'm looking for a hot blond to cozy up to on this chilly friday night, no strings attached", just makes me sad. I thought dating sites were instituted to help find a significant other, not a booty call. Isn't that what bars are for? And, anyway, I hate to break it to ya, Bigshot, while there are some daring, lonely hotties out there, this just isn't going to get overwhelming responses from the type of women you're propositioning.

Men, if you are really looking to successfully find a girlfriend via the internet, please just come up with a respectful, witty profile. Tell a little about yourself, be genuine. Be funny- women LOVE funny. Post a recent picture of your yourself-preferably your face, and don't be too pushy. You actually have to intellectually connect since you can't just base the connection off physical chemistry. That being said, online dating, what DID our grandparents do without the internet?!

    A vegivore is a person who craves or has a special fondness for vegetables. This need not be because the person has an aversion to eating meat but solely due to an intense craving for vegetables. To a vegivore, meat products may only seem like an accompaniment to add flavour to the dish. He/she will find the vegetable dish more satiating than the meat dish.

    How would you like to be able to get a girlfriend even though you are a naturally shy man when you are around women? I bet that you think that it is going to be next to impossible for you to attract a woman if you are on the shy side, but you know what? I really don't think that it has to be that way. I mean, I do know that you are going to have to break out of your shyness to some extent, because you do have to be able to make conversation with women.

    If you've ever wondered to yourself, 'Is he attracted to me?' Then listen up- I am going to be frank with you. If you are pondering whether a guy 'likes' you or what you can do to make him 'like' you more. Well, the answers are no and nothing. Actually, the answers could be kind of and do his laundry/cooking/house work/pay his bills/and be the easiest booty call in his phone book. But 'kind of' is not good enough and that is what mothers and hookers are for.
