Default Writing An Online Dating Service Profile? 3 Mistakes You MustAvoid...


Well, after 4 years of reading far in excess of 10,000 profiles of men
and women searching for a partner through online dating services, I've
laughed at my fair share of poorly written introductions...

Of those 10,000 online dating service profiles, no more than a dozen
captured our attention enough to make the first move. I'm sure that
you wish to get lots of reactions to your online dating service
advertisement, otherwise why would you bother joining a site, and
paying a fee to meet new people?

If that is the case, then make sure you avoid the following 3 mistakes
at all costs:

1. "I May Be the one you're Seeking For"
This may be the case. However, by employing this combination of words
anywhere for your online dating service profile, you aren't telling
me, or your potential suitor, anything new...

What this line does say to someone checking you out is that the online
dating service profiler didn't do a lot of thinking about how they
wanted to present themselves. Tell people what gets your eyes
twinkling or even what REALLY gets you up in the morning - and don't
say it's your alarm clock, either. Now is the time to let your
passions really shine through...

2. "I'm the one Your Mother Warned You About"
This is, from my research in any case, virtually the most overused
phrase in an opening line for online dating service profiles. True,
it's the generic option of some of the larger sites (such as Lavalife
or even True) - if your profile is awaiting approval, this tag line
will show up while waiting for the a-okay...

To avoid this, come up with something a bit more unique and original.
But what if
