| I've participated in many forums and this topic comes up continually. You would think men would have a clue.
1. We know you like our picture or you wouldn't contact us or wink.
2. READ the whole PROFILE! If your too damn lazy to spend a few moments reading our profile we're should I be interested?
3.
a.If we have nothing in common just move on.
b. If you think we have something in common WRITE 2-3 sentences that indicate this, ie:
I noticed we both grew up in Timbuktu, attended Harvard, mentor young people, like canoeing or hiking or.......(you get the drift)Please read my profile. If interested, drop me a line. If not, best of luck on your search.
If this is too much effort for you...WHY SHOULD WE WASTE OUR TIME!?
4. If a woman's profile says DON'T WINK....then DON'T wink. If you couldn't expend the effort to even read the first line of her profile or are illiterate...guess what???? We think you are lazy and stupid and we aren't interested.
5. Make certain you have actually written a profile that clearly depicts WHO you are and WHAT you like to do. We are not mind readers. Just saying "I want a nice woman who doesn't cheat and I can grow old with....
This is what MOST of the men are looking for! Do you play a sport,like animals, are you an amateur photographer, coach Little league, volunteer, are you a member of MENSA?
6. Post at least one RECENT picture of you without sunglasses or a hat or where it's obvious you cut off the half of picture that used to contain your ex.
Do NOT:
Cut and paste your profile to send to her. WRITE A NOTE!
Say you're hot, you're pretty or I want to do you.
Wanna chat? The answer is generally NO unless we have enough basic information about you to make that determination!
If you follow the rules one of the following will occur:
a. she'll write back
b. she's not interested and won't reply OR
c. she's not interested and will drop you a note saying, "thanks but no thanks" and wish you luck on your search.
YOUR response should be to:
a. do nothing
b. acknowledge her note and wish her luck too.
Do NOT write back a TOXIC letter. This makes you look like an A** and speaks volumes about you in a negative way. This is a democracy.

| Apparently it's not a democracy, you seem to want to make all the rules. It's called a monarchy, and Hillary's got you beat there. If you're such a man hater, get a partner, move to San Fran, and protest something. Or perhaps you just got a bad case of crotch crickets, either way. Perhaps you should replace that pic on your profile w/ this

| I agree Doublesaint. I had a lady contact me from over 1,000 miles away. I tried sensitively to advise her of the distance and that I wasn't really looking for a long distance relationship. She got all bent out of shape, informing me that I was only 100 miles away from her. Hello!!! She was out in Southwestern Wyoming, and I'm in Eastern North Dakota. I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I'm thinkin' she's farther than 100 miles away.

| When I got to #1
1. We know you like our picture or you wouldn't contact us or wink.
I knew she wasn't talking to this shadow! I have contacted shadow ladies
before, and it sure wasn't because I liked her "Shade of Grey"
As far as the rest, well to each their own. I just wish everyone the
best of whatever they may seek.
JMHO

| One more thing...ditch the pets in your primary profile picture I am interested in you not the dog, cat horse, or whatever. If you are saying the beast is a serious part of your life leave it in your written profile or a secondary picture all alone.

| I do think this thread pertains to everyone, not just the men.
I think what she is trying to say is to please be polite and considerate. If you are looking for a mate, put some effort into it. At least read the profile to see if the personality as written may fit with your own personality. If you can't be bothered to do that much now, in the very beginning, what kind of partner will you turn out to be? She is also asking that we all put some effort and detail into our profiles so potential dates have some information from which to form and opinion and make a decision whether to contact or not from.
She is also asking those that have been told the other person is not interested or not responded be an adult and be considerate and wish the person good luck as we would wish them well, too. There is someone for everyone, and if I'm not your cup of tea or you're not mine, why get mean and vindictive? Move on and find the person you were meant to be with.
I think the basic theme is don't be lazy, either in creating a profile or in your search, and be considerate to everyone. The world would certainly be a better place if everyone could behave in general in those ways. JMO.

| Darn, now I have to rewrite my profile.
I don't think I was "s p e c i f i c" enough in what I'm looking for.
I do know what I'm not looking for (hint)
I've reached my 3 sentence limit, so that's it.

| Many profiles read like a bad novel, they say so much meanless crap you cant finish it. some other just linger on saying im still bitter about my ex, others say nothing at all.and then there are the people that dont want to date at all What did they not see the name DATE HOOKUP, so if you get a wink its because he wants to find who you are ,maybe more ,and not every nurse wants a doctor, people have varied taste, did you not get a delete button on you screen too. SORRY just a thought!
Ps I read every profile unless your screen saver makes it impossible

| I think this thread is somewhat vain. I have never emailed anyone trying to hook up with them, but i've seen some pretty women in here with low self esteem and talking bad about themselves when they shouldn't be. We weren't even in the same age range and we surely didnt have anything in common, but I still sent a few an email saying "Hey you are a pretty lady you shouldn't be so down on yourself. I'm not trying to hook up with you of course, im just paying you the compliment you deserve" What's wrong with that? I don't consider it a waste of my time when someone emails me, I have the rest of my life to go without being in such a hurry to hate on people for emailing me. I could understand if they were persistent after you tell them ur not interested, and they still wanted to date you, lol.

| I don't think profiles need to include your entire likes and dislikes nor does it need to contain what you do in your spare time. I don't want to read a novel when looking at profiles. I'll find out soon enough what you do and what you enjoy if and when we decide to chat, email, phone or meet. Simple, basic, genuine is all thats needed.
