OK, thanks for your response.

Enough to capture a man's heart.
Not enough to encourage a stalker.
Sometimes they are the same.

Well that depends on how much info you want people to know and also what your looking for cause if your looking for friends or love or dating you may use different info on each one my friend good luck hugssssss

Just enough to tantalize, but not enough to give the away the location of the keys to the city.

Thanks for all the info. Makes sense.

There are three schools of thought on this:

1.) The empty profile

2.) The cliche-ridden profile (everyone is "laid back and easy going," everyone is "looking for Prince Charming," everyone likes "to go out or stay in," etc.

3.) The profile that actually contains some useful information about who the person is and what they're looking for, and doesn't read like a copy 'n paste of the last 285 profiles you've read.

Approximately 98.4% of all profiles I've seen fall into category 1 and 2.

Well, mine is not a "copy and paste" but just wondering if too much info is a turn-off.

Thank you very much!

Lex ought to have added that 99.9 percent of readers will ignore the entire profile text and respond on the strength of your pictures alone. Lex gets 2,000 responses a day on the average, and it irks him to no end, because he is a writer, and to a writer it's an insult to like him for his looks only. ((I sort of overexplained this, but it was for Lex's sake. And because I enjoy the feel of typing on a keyboard.))

The one guy out of the thousand who is liable to read the profile and get it, will be a loveable yet constantly drooling one-eared half-wit, or a vicious and cruel democrat who owns and runs a little African country for the sole purpose of game hunting with his executive buddies.

Right, plus if I was actually as good-looking as some people seem to indicate, I would have had a girlfriend by now.



"Don't hate me because I'm beautiful, hate me because I make up words like 'domesticatrix' and try to shoehorn them into popular media."

The domestic media don't like make-up people who toot their own shoe-horns.

Be more gentlemanly, less horny, and the girls will chase you by the truckloads.

Ah, you can't GET any more gentlemanly or less horny than me.

And chasing has never been the problem. The problem is I can't seem to get chased by anybody whose entire life isn't built on babies & booze. Assuming it's even possible for such a person to exist. Which it's not.

Excuse Me??????? I don't like being stereotyped. Maybe your attitude towards women is why no one chases you.

You must be new here....

Tammy, Your profile is full of "normal" stuff. But seeing as how you are what you are, I guess that is okay!

How I am????? And just how is that?

Without reading your profile again I remember you saying you were a simple woman who didn't care much for the glossy things in life.
