On your profile questions......

Man many profiles are very generic and cliche...try to be more specific and give real examples and stories.

Your interests....Dont just say I like movies and music...who doesnt...what type of music? What type of movies? What are your favorites? You want to bring up interests that the people you are catering to will like. If the women follow a sports team, mention that in your profile. If you find you have interests tha guys would like --mention those.


Who influenced you....

This is to talk about one person...sure people had many...just pick one and talk about it without generalizing or being vague.


Passionate about...

This is not a list of your interests.....this is what drive you. the answer should be among: (1) why you shose your career you love?, (2) is their a cause or interest you fight for or volunterr for or support in some way, (3) do you have an interest you will have the rest of your life? You would not give up at all..and if this is a hobby could you see one day doing it as a side business?

What you look for in a person....

Everyone says they want honesty, trust, faithfulness...what else is new. The answer is ok if you share something personal as to why its important to you. Making a list doesnt cut it. Look past the obvious and think about what you truely would love to have in your significant other...especially something others may not have.

This is more for women....try not to come off as if you are looking to be rescued because you have no life. It will be a turn off to most men. For men...dont come off as in being desperate for attention.


Profile photos

Your pictures do matter. You should have (1) a good head shot seeing your hair style...no black hair on a dark wall/nighttime....so one could see your hair style and face, (2) a picture that shows your body from the hops on up showing your body shape.

You can have other photos but dont over do it. Dont post pictures of you skiing/fishing if you have no interest doing it again in your life. If you have pictures of you with a group of friends...you need to say which one you are and not have others guess. Dont crop out an old bf from a picture. in this age with cell phone cameras its easy to do pictures and put them online. With pictures...they should not be dated as in years ago. They need to be current.
