I close out matches often for the reasons as follow:
1. You have time to sign up, you have time to fill out your profile. Nothing will make me close a match faster than an incomplete profile. If you had time to create one and take the Compatibility Test, then you can make time again to fill out that profile. This includes a clear photograph. I prefer matches who have a photo so I can see who I'm talking to.
2. Be intelligent. Is it so hard to be clean and clear cut in your sentences? Define paragraphs; don't crowd everything together, and be careful about spelling and grammar. When in doubt, consult a dictionary.
3. Be descriptive. You're telling us about yourself so those who are interested can formulate a good opinion of you so you don't end in the pile of millions of closed matches. I hate the one liners and the "ask me if u want to know".
4. While I am a Christian and it's great to have my match Christian, that's not all who I am. It shouldn't be what you're all about either. I want to know hobbies, favorite foods, TV shows, etc. More often than not I get Matches where in each and every question all they do is talk about God or anything religious.
Number 4 is the one that's been peeving me most lately. I am getting downright sick of it. I can't formulate a good opinion on a Match if all they answer is with religion. Why won't you say anything else about your life in your profile? I know your religion can't be all who you are.
Regarding number 4 above, I just changed my profile to accept other religious preferences because all I was getting was God this, and God that, and fluffy spiritual cliches. I want to know who YOU are, not who Jesus is, or even who God/Jesus says you are.
The other big thing that makes me want to reach for the close button is ALL CAPS. Yeesh, stop shouting at me!
