All the men's profiles are boring...outdoorsy, hunt, fish, camp, me Tarzan you Jane!
I think that's because that's all they are hard wired for, unfortunately for us :ohwell:
Hey now - don't lump me in with the rest. I abhor all of those things except fishing, and even that I maybe do once a year.
Dating Profiles have a meta-language all their own. I have noticed a few trends myself:
First, assuming a standard range of 1-10, women who fall within 3-8 tend to either drastically over- or underestimate their attractiveness. I have seen WAY too many 3's who think they are 11s, and way too many 8s who think they are -1s.
I have learned that seeing a woman upside-down inexplicably adds 2 points to her perceived rating. This means I now know to flip the pic over before I decide. Why do you look better upside down?!?
No one can agree on what a body type means. One girl's "curvy" is another girl's "Average" is another girl's "overweight".
Every girl apparently is "random."0 -

Aw, I don't think my profile is boring. There's nothing about fishing, hunting, throwing women in caves, how my ex is this or that, mommy issues, video games or sports. Maybe I need to send it out to my FL and get some feedback for fun.

I found out rather quickly when a guy said he wanted to "watch a movie" he really didn't mean that at all. I need some sort of dating decoder list.0 -
I'm stealing these "rules" from a friend's post on another message board:
* Post a current photo.
* Don't post photos of your dogs or cats unless you are in the photo as well. People don't visit your profile because they want to go out on a date with your dogs or your cats.
* Never post photos of your children on your profile unless you are in the photo as well. I never understood why single mothers posted stand-alone photos of their children on a dating site.
* Never say, "I'm looking for a guy who doesn't play games." Guys have no idea WTF you're talking about when you post something like that. Seriously, what specifically does that mean?
* When you're taking a photo of yourself for a dating site, pretend that there's a force-field above your head that will cut off your arm if you hold your camera up high to take a photo of yourself from above. Camera angle shots from above are always strange-looking and deceptive.
* No duck-face photos.
* Smile in your photo. It used to amaze me how many women posted profile photos without smiling.0 -
i am "outdoorsy" in the way that i enjoy running outside around a trail or riding bikes around the lake or mountain trail or playing in the pool in the summer time, but i have never hunted and don't plan on it, have not fished since i was about 8 years old and have no interest in doing so again, and camping is ok a few times a year with friends/family but i by no means try to live only for camping. just thought i would throw that out there for all you "male species profilers" oh yeah, and i'm single with recent pictures that look exactly like i currently do hahaha0

i always loved the guys who appear so into finding out all about you...and then send/share a photo of their "junk" or whip it out after meeting for 30 minutes.
*sigh* those were the good ole days...NOT.

Dating Nightmare #37
I once had a guy ask me out on a site ... he picked to meet at a local bar . We meet everythings ok... we walk up to the bar I order a blue moon, he orders a coke. I must have gave him a "look" he said, oh I don't drink. So, I asked why didn't you want to meet at bar then?? he said because I want you to get drunk!!! WTF! Creeper. I left.
points for honesty?0 -
