Reasons why guys dont type;

1. They are too lazy.
2. They are too lazy.

3. See above.

Anything in print can come back to haunt them. Hense its easleir to lie.


So I am lazy; but ask me anything and I will tell you the truth (because heck, its not my real name, I'll probably never meet you (unless the truth doesn't scare you and....)

It seems the majority of the men on the dating sites don't fill out their profile info and then say "ask me anything and I will tell you" Man that bugs me.

Most women I know have a common complaint that their men don't share or talk about their feelings, hopes, dreams and goals. If you are starting out by saying "Ask Me" it's a pretty tell tale sign that later on in the relationship the women will have to ASK to get the guy to talk and share.

I am searching out someone who doesn't need to be asked - someone who wants to share ... someone who communicates without a prodding.

Why do you guys do this??? arrrggghhh.
flowerforyou I have had bad experiences with psycho stalkers so I dont want to give out too much personal infoflowerforyou

That is the best advice I have ever recieved in my life -- to do with "profiles" and in general. Wow. Okay I'm going to change my profile right now...okay maybe not...but at least I'm taking the "ask me anything part" off. Thanks a lot

And yes, I guess it is because I am just too lazy to get into specifics about me. Which is another thing I am going to "change" on said profile....damn I feel like I have just been burnt.

And for what its worth -- I just removed my "Any questions? I am an open book" And replaced it with about 5 paragraphs....I realize this isn't a "Rate my profile" community.....but that was a great idea...thanks again

I do not know why Guys do this, I also do not know why Gals do this either...
This is not a gender specific problem, to me Laziness is Mediocrity...

When posting a profile you can add in a lot of information; Likes, Dislikes and what you are looking for in a potential date, it does not mean you have to put so much up that your life is exposed.

To the OP; Keep searching, looking, chatting and browsing the forums... You will eventually find someone interesting.

I'm thinking maybe if you take the time to think about what it is you are REALLY looking for in a man, you will be able to ask the appropriate questions. If a person says, "ask me anything you want", then they are probably the kind of person that DOESN'T boast about themselves and could quite possibly be a nice and humble person.

At least that's how I look at it. It's probably not going to get you too far if the first thing you've ever posted is a ***** about men.

Excuse me....?

My profile is 1400 pages long and says everything anyone could ever possibly want or need to know about me.

It hasn't made a damn bit of difference insofar as my being able to meet anyone or not.

All I DO is communicate. Nobody pays any attention.

I've been griping since Day One about how 99% of all the profiles I see are filled with vapidity like "I don't know what to write here" or "Anything you want to know you'll have to ask" or "I'm laid back and easy going" or "I like to go out or stay in" or "I love my friends and family" or 2000 other bits and pieces of mindless drivel that are only marginally less interesting than the ingredients list on the Planters Peanuts jar.

I've always advocated the idea that this, as a written medium, should compel us to write profiles that say something ABOUT us, about who we are, what we're looking for (and not looking for), about our lives and hopes and dreams and thoughts and desires and fears and likes and dislikes, etc.

But hardly anyone does that. They're too busy writing something like "I'll fill this out later" or "I just found out about this site and I will put some information here if it's worth it."

As much as I wish more people WOULD put a little thought and energy into their profiles, it's just not going to happen.

Or maybe women are too lazy to do a little digging to try and find out what a person is really like?
