And another thing....

Since we are talking about profiles and what to put in them, for god's sake, don't start your profile in any of the following ways: "I don't know what to say on these things, but here goes......" or "I am new at this....." or "I am a simple person..."

You are going to have to do a little better than that to make me sit up and say "Whoa!!!" Come on now, you are trying to put your best self forward here. I am not saying that you should lie, I am just saying that you should present yourself in the most flattering light.

Okay, looking for input here...inquiring minds want to know......what's one thing in a profile that would really irritate you?

Burning the midnight oil....

The more I am on online dating sites, the less I understand men. Shouldn't it work the other way?
Here's irritation number 1. Reality check, guys. You profile is meant to showcase "you", not for you to have a personal bitch session about how all women on the site are fat slobs or how you can't handle single moms. No one cares about that kind of stuff, ok? If I see a guy's profile and he's going on some sort of ridiculous rant like that, I immediately move on. Why do I want to mess with an obvious woman hater?
Okay, number 2. Decent, recent picture of your FACE. Your face, man. okay? At least. Oh, and if you are going to bitch about how women look, you have to at least look like Brad Pitt's hotter brother. Got me?
Number 3. SHOW me how you are awesome sincere cool whatever. SHOW me, don't tell me. Any moron can sit there and say they are the greatest thing since sliced bread. But can they show me? Guys, I will even help you with this, if you want. If you need help with your profile, I will help you! Honest!
If you are on MySpace, feel free to meet my alter ego, ManCandy Dating and check out her blog which explores relationships, dating, and all the crazy stuff in between. If you like what your read, let me know. If you don't, let me know that too!
Okay sexy Divas and Zeus', I am heading for bed. You know what they say..."Wear cute jammies to bed...you never know who you'll meet in your dreams." Night!
