I deal with the results or non results of my profile because I decided what went in it, it is me and not what the world told me to do.

The day i follow what others say I should do then it wont be me anymore but an image of me from what others would like to see.

Is it good or bad doesn't matter as long as it's me, ain't it what a profile is suppose to be YOU.

You're right, the profile is all you and no one HAS to follow or use the tips I wrote down. Think of them as break crumbs to get to the loaf of bread, if that makes any sense??? huh

Be who you are, do what you do and express yourself freely. No one has to change for anyone, I was just giving tips to make it easier for guys, so they have a chance.

My profile is 1400 pages long and I have tons of pictures there, and I get a lot of viewers. Many of them are repeat offenders in that they periodically check back for periodic updates, which I periodically do.

Now, it's true that most of the correspondence I get from new viewers is either of the argumentative or dismissive variety, but that's OK. I figure anything that can generate that kind of rancor in otherwise sedentary 48-year-old women with 4 kids is probably a good thing. Cardio, and all that.

As a guy, i can tell you we have a short attention span and dont always read alot in the profiles. Myself, i have a wierd form of vertigo, and i get dizzy if i read too much too fast, so heres a forum writing No-No.

1. If you dont have time to read someones profile cause it's too long, why the heck would you write a forum page 60 or so lines long? Thats just ignorant and kinda controdictive. While pics speak for themselves, a picture of yourself can only say soo much, and then i want to know more personally about who im looking at.

Make it a little shorter next time, if you cant get to the point in a few words, no ones going to read what you wrote here.


So, what's too much for you? Her post is longer than most, but really, it isn't that long. Most of the time, guys use that as an excuse. I've been told that my profile is too long, yet it's not really that long.

Works for me, I could definitely use one.

Re: this idea that guys don't like longer profiles, I can say, speaking strictly for myself, that this is absolutely not true. I want as much information as I can get on the person, so -- unless they really really can't write at all (and this certainly does happen) -- longer is better, presuming the length is justified by the amount of useful material included therein.

I am so tired of the "I don't know what to write here" and "Anything you want to know, you'll have to ask" profiles -- it would be nice to see someone who actually had something to say, and said it in a manner worth reading....regardless of length.

I hope women dont actually believe that short attention span is shared by ALL men.



Good Gravy
