Ways To Help Your Online Dating Profile
With online dating becoming more popular, perfecting your profile can be an issue for most. Most never know how much or how little they should divulge in their profile. The picture is the first thing people see. So you will want to make sure your picture shows you in the best light.
Depending on your age I recommend not using a picture with children, if they are not yours. Some people have checklists that run for miles and if they see a picture with a child in a profile picture the chances of them contacting you to see if they are yours or your sisters is pretty slim. You wouldn’t want them passing on you for a misunderstanding that could have been avoided.
Also use a picture of only yourself! Do not use pictures with your friends. It is very hard for people to decipher who is who. If they cannot figure out which one you are, than they will move on just because they didn’t know who was who. If you are a man do not use pictures with other women. Women analyze pictures and if they see you with another woman they will start to wonder who she is and if she is an ex that she will have to deal with if she dates you.
Try to use a picture that plays up your best features. If you love your eyes use a picture to show them off. Make sure you have good lightening, if your picture looks too dark they will wonder why?
The bio is the hardest for most. Keep it short and sweet and do not run on about things. Look at other peoples description to get ideas if you are stuck on what to put. Try to write something funny about yourself to lighten the mood of online dating. Put your hobbies! If someone is interested in the same things as you they will be more intrigued to contact you.
In the past, for research I have signed up for online dating to see who was out there and their dating tactics. I strongly urge if you are serious about finding a mate please do not talk about sex in the first few messages you send to them. It is a major turn off. Since you do not know that person it makes the mood uneasy. Most people have sexual relations way before they should. If you barely know their favorite color, than they definitely shouldn’t know how you look naked!
Dating is supposed to be fun! I recommend going on dates with as many people as you can. Someone you overlooked could be the love of your life, but because you didn’t message them you will never know what could have been! Happy dating!!
