just pondering here....why are people so lazy with their profile?
.."email me and I'll tell you"..."I'll fill this in later"..."if you really want to know message me"... no wonder they can't get a date... I can just see how that would work at a real coffee shop.... enter cute girl... sees cute boy girl says,"hi cute boy,how are you?.." cute boy says,"email me and I'll tell you"... cute girl backs away slowly fearing that cute boy is actually crazy boy and may stab her with a stir stick...(nah..that would take effort) |

That was the whole profile. What's also good are the ones where the whole profile says "I don't know what to write here." Or "Anything you want to know, you'll have to ask me." Yeah, like I'm going to bother with someone who can't write three semi-coherent sentences about herself! |

lol i completely agree, your never gonna meet anyone without sayin somethin about you. it drives me crazy

Yeah, sorry to say, I tend to skip right over those. It's too bad, one of them might be "the one" for someone but no one will ever know

Those are the ones just looking for sex. Because if they were here to really find someone they would write so others could read about them..
But hey they are great comedy to read.. |

I dug this up from an old post:
I've looked at hundreds and hundreds of women's profiles on this site. Something like 95% of them are basically worse than useless. They are either empty, vapid, cliche-ridden, or incomprehensible. I can count on one hand the profiles that actually left me feeling like I knew anything more about the person than I did before I read it! Here are some examples: Headline: Looking for new friends (profile empty -- no content) Headline: hi (profile empty -- no content) Entire profile: im easygoing Entire profile: im honest i like to party drink chill Headline: Sick of attracting the wrong guys.. (profile empty -- no content) Entire profile: I'm a fun person who likes to have fun So there really isn't anything to work with. Typically, in the few profiles that do contain some actual content, that content appears to have been lifted from some sort of boilerplate Dating Site Profiles For (Lazy) Dummies book. Phrases like "I'm easy-going," "I'm laid back," "I don't know what to write here," "I hate writing about myself," "Anything you want to know, you'll have to ask," "No game players," "No drama," "I like to hang out with friends" -- these tell me that the person either isn't interested enough, creative enough, or bright enough to write three coherent sentences about herself. My impression is that people are just going through the motions, not putting any thought at all into the profile. I do agree with you that some of them may be expressing a desire not to be approached by people looking for "victims," one-night stands, etc. -- but, realistically, is a "game player" going to read this and say "I better not contact HER, she doesn't want a game player" -- ? It's like waving a red flag in front of a bull.... Others, I think are just writing reflexively. They may just be copying language from another profile. Scammers are rare here (in my experience), and are quickly removed once identified. I think you're in much greater danger of being bored to death than ripped off!! |

I admit my profile is horrible because I really don't know what to write. I have updated it once, I'm sure many more times. This is my first friends/dating site i've joined. Thought i would give it a try. That if i left things out at leased you can have some conversation about yourself without everyone knowing first.I'm here to make friends first and if by chance i meet somone, that would be great.
