Dating Advice: Three Mistakes To Avoid When Writing An Online Dating Service Pro
ast...@163.com
looking for a partner through online dating services, I've laughed at
my fair share of poorly written introductions. Of those 10,000 online
dating service profiles, no more than a dozen captured my attention
enough to make the first move. I'm sure that you want to get lots of
responses to your online dating service advertisement, or else why
would you bother joining a site, and paying a small fee to meet new
people? If that is the case, then make sure you avoid the following
three mistakes at all costs:
Dating Advice Point 1. "I'm the One Your Mother Warned You About"
This is, from my research anyway, the most overused sentence in an
opening line for online dating service profiles. True, it's the
generic choice of some of the larger sites (such as Lavalife or True)
- if your profile is awaiting approval, this tag line may show up
while waiting for the a-okay. To avoid this, come up with something a
bit more original and unique. Bu what if you aren't sure what that may
be? Well, it's not hard to take a look at your competition in the
online dating service field, so why not do a quick search and see what
everyone else is doing? Reading other people's description of
themselves may just get your creative juices flowing. At the very
least, it'll show you what everyone else is saying about themselves -
and what key phrases and words you should therefore avoid in turn.
Dating Advice Point 2. "I Might Be the One you're Looking For"
This may be the case. However, by using this combination of words
anywhere in your online dating service profile, you aren't telling me,
or any other potential suitor, anything new. What this line does say
to someone checking you out is that the online dating service profiler
didn't do a lot of thinking about how they wanted to present
themselves. Tell people what gets your eyes twinkling or what REALLY
gets you up in the morning - and don't say it's your alarm
