Reddit: the front page of the internet. You can post your own profile. Is this sub riddled with selection bias and makes online dating seem too bad? Jan 09, 2018 Show ALL Forums >Profile Reviews. Dec 30, It Happened To Me: My Online Dating Profile Inspired A Whole Forum Thread Online dating profile forum To What A Whore I Am I checked my datibg on OkCupid. So I got a little intoxicated one night and started filling in my description for my online profile. Normally this wouldn't be a good idea, but the results have been.
Long time since I have done it but Western Union Hacking Bug: Full Version Software there. .. Number of emails.. When I first joined about 50 in the first hour, at which point I had still not added a picture, yet received 'you are beautiful babe, wanna meet?'
Yes it made me sceptical but I persevered. In the first week, even whilst I had no picture up, I received about 80.
Second week with picture up around 100+ Third week, less incoming but I was by then messaging and communicating with guys I thought I might like so the messages I received I probably wasn't acknowledging. Gradually slowed down to about two a week, unless I logged in, in which cases messages increased. Obviously when you receive messages saying how sexy you look, yet you have no picture up, you recognise that a lot of mail is spam, such as 'Hey babe' 'Hi' 'Hey sexy looking great' In order to reply I would look for something in their message that confirmed they had viewed it and read it. Important factors Location, non smoker, didn't drink too much, no drugs, good job, actual information on profile (it's surprising how many write. Will fill in later) Had every intention of meeting people, but personally, when I was messaging a guy, the others contacting me were ignored, just because I was focused on him. I've tried pof, okcupid and tinder.
I stopped using pof and okc because waaaay too many dudes message. I like tinder the best because only people you match with can contact you so at least you have some common ground.
Despite what some people think tinder can be used for legitimate dating, I've met some pretty quality dudes through it. I'm not into using it for a hook up because if I wanted that I could just go to my local bar. Personally I respond to dudes that seem to want to have a real conversation. If you want girls to respond I would suggest asking them a question about something they list on their profile or from their pictures. We get so many creepy ones it's a relief when they talk to us like real human beings. I don't use it to seek attention but I'm sure there are a lot of girls who do.
It's just a matter of trying to start a conversation and feeling the situation out. If I were a guy I wouldn't waste more than a week's time in trying to get a girl to meet up because if it's taking her that long to decide chances are she just wants the attention. Never used tinder because from my understanding that is based on appearance, however I don't really choose guys on appearance but more on humour, conversation, where they are in life, what they want for their future, blah, blah, blah. Yes, lots of spam. Many ignore what you are seeking, in my case I was seeking a relationship, and would concentrate on what they were seeking.
