| Topic: Who would believe.... | |

I was talking to a friend today about online dating and I asked her what she would say if she came across a profile that seemed "too good to be true". She said if she read that on anybody's profile she would quickly jump to the next profile because either it was a bold faced lie or there was something seriously wrong with that person that had yet to be revealed. That made me take pause to ponder the dilemma we all face when writing our profiles. We all want to put our best foot forward, but at the same time don't want to sound conceited, crazy or shallow. So the questions I put to all of you is this. Do you disbelieve most of what you read in profiles that seem too perfect? Do you shy away from those people or do you try to get to know them to see how much of it is true?

I give the benefit of the doubt. It doesn't take long before their true colors show.

I am drawn more to the unique, down to earth and "simply" sincere profiles anyway. I am turned off by the ones that brag about how much they have, how great they are, and all the "exotic" places they go and things they do. Like I say in my profile, realism and individualism-just be yourself.

No one will ever really know if somone is of what they say is on there profile, it's just taking that time and seeing what happens and go from there. |

Occasionally, true genuineness and sincerity jumps right off a profile's page-
 Other times, profiles can be less forthright-  And still other times, they are just down right deceivingly written!  Some people's words just emminate who they are and other's, try to use words to 'create' themselves... |

There are too many reasons why awesome ppl may have trouble meeting ppl to date...I don't assume they are lying, but then again, I'm not really fond of ppl stuck on themselves. If it's too "look at me" I think I'd pass.

Most are skeptical no matter what they say on their profile anyway. If someone seems bitter or egotistical I keep looking.
