First, I think people should use pictures that reflect how they actually look but are also not unflattering. No nudes or photos with lots of skin. I liked using one of my face, one in a suit, one that showed my full body (clothed!), and a couple of me doing things i enjoy and do often. The profile should give a little insight into who you are and what is most important to you. Based on the profiles I read it seemed like too many people felt the need to claim they are the life of the party, willing to try anything including skydiving, etc. I think it is better to state positively what you’re looking for instead of having a long list of dealbreakers.
Hmmm, good points! I do sometimes see that people seem to be the life of the party, though, I guess they're just trying to market themselves as best they can.
They should show that they have an interesting social life and are close to their family and friends but should avoid showing off their money or they might attract a gold digger. If they are educated they should flaunt their education but claim to be new to the industry and say they have a low net worth.
They should not put pictures of themselves with other men/women (family pictures may be acceptable) but it’s like… That makes it seem like you’re dating/hooking up or close with the person in the picture… It’s just weird.
I like an array of pictures: 1 or 2 pictures of his face and then pictures that show his interests.
I also really look to the bio - it has to say something about who he is and what he likes or at least spark interest. Kinda like it as well when the myers-briggs personality type is on there so I can have a grip of his personality.
This is interesting. I never would've thought about putting my Myers-Briggs personality type online. I think you're into something!
How would you suggest photos of hobbies look like without making it seem less appealing? I hardly see people putting photos of their hobbies so I don't have a good idea of what to expect 🤔
I’ve seen pictures of people in the mountains (for skiing/snowboarding), with their walking gear on on a beautiful spot, at the waterline for watersports, …
I really think that these kind of photo’s give me a glimpse of the personality of the other person and show me something they’re passionate about. Also gives something to talk about on a date. 😁
And the myers-briggs is awesome to know and puts me at ease about who I’m going to get before me/who I can expect. People who don’t know about it might not pay attention but for someone who does this is a nice surprise.
I never tried online dating but I prefer "show over tell". For example, instead of saying describing ourselves as funny, show it by making a funny profile. Instead of describing ourselves as outgoing, show a picture together with your mates.
Definitely get into your likes, hobbies and general life like what you do and what your goals are. Girls want to (generally) see a guy that has ambition and knows what he wants.
Make sure to include the very interesting things you do!
Home address, telephone number, social security number, banking information, sexual history, parents home address, personal information about past lovers, and your favorite pizza joints (love comes and goes, but getting spit in your pizza pie sucks).
2115 Neverland Blvd, +270 727292990, 83-72-nope, 68-727-82818 la la la la la..., 2115 Neverland Rd, one was crazy about her ex and oh wait, so was the other one, Pizza Inn/Debonairs/Mancinos Pizza (Ikr? Such b*stards they are)
Hmmm, it's a bit of an iffy line for me. Like, I find it rude to put height and all that as a turn off and most of the people that put it on their come off as an ass. I get that it's direct but it also doesn't come off well, 100% of the times if you get ready i mean?
For guys my advice will always be the same. Tell as little about yourself as possible. Have good pics and then put little to NOTHING down for your bio. Trust me you'll get more messages if you let her look at your Pics and write the story in her head. You know the old saying a Pic is worth a 1000 words? It is so true in this case. And if she likes your pics what she'll create in her head is FAR better than anything you can write, trust me.
