Online Dating Help For Newbies: Writing Your Profile

If you've been having trouble getting a date and are tired of being alone, you may have finally decided to try the world of online dating. You probably never thought you were first date would be the result of online dating, but there are worst things in life. In fact, you could have the time of your life. Every day 100 people in the world get married as a result of relationships that started from online dating. You could soon become one of the lucky ones!

Before you can become lucky; however, you need to join an online dating site and set up your profile. Setting up your profile is one of the first things you'll do upon joining the site. It's what others will see so make it count. Here are some helpful suggestions on making the best possible profile.

Make your profile unique. Don't copy someone else's and just put your screen name on it. Make it tell the viewer something specific about you. For instance, if you enjoy reading horror books, you might say that you enjoy Steven King novels or are a fan of Dean Koontz. If you have a pet, you might want to say something about your pet. They say cute dogs are great date magnets! Give your viewer enough interesting stuff to read so they stay on your profile page long enough to read it.

Be honest in your profile. Unless you're planning to have nothing more than a cyber friendship, you may meet up with each other in the future. You don't want to have to explain why you lied. When describing yourself, be as accurate as possible. If you are using a photo, this is a must, make sure it's a current photo. Anything less is being dishonest.

Be specific about what you want. Don't just say you're looking for a commitment or looking for a decent person to date. If you want someone that likes animals, say so. If you are interested in someone to do things with outdoors, say that as well.

Do not overbuild yourself or put yourself down in any way. Explain who and what you are and be proud of it. Somewhere out there is someone just like you.

Be yourself. I realize that the internet allows us to speak more freely and often lowers our inhibitions, but use the same kind of voice on your profile as you would use if you were meeting in person. Fewer things are more important in online dating than honesty, especially on your first date.
