Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. I recommended you branch OUT to PoF not switch! Broadening your horizons is never a bad thing, m’dear.

I think it is feast or famine on these sites. I’ll get a lot of email on OkCupid then nothing for awhile then a bunch of mail again. Same with POF. I think people online are sometimes unrealistic and will not reply to an email just b/c of some random thing in a profile. With that in mind, I say just message anyone remotely interesting and the one that you think will be so-so will turn out to be great. That has been my experience. Love your blog!

I would agree with this at times. Working on not trying to think too much.

I saw that post and going to write something on it shortly. The picture isn’t everything here, I’m getting a lot of looks just no responses to the messages I’m sending out, so there HAS to be something more! Not taking my shirt off. That’s pretty much horrible advice period, I believe.

Maybe you are just trying to hard? My advice, go out and have fun if you meet a girl great, if not then at least you had a good time. Just be yourself.

P.S. Plenty of Fish is kinda sucky. Lots of sketchy dates from that one for me.

I read on OkCupid’s blog about the study they did of 7,000 of their users. They looked at the success rate of each member’s picture and determined…
1. guys should look away from the camera and not smile (we like to think you’re mysterious i guess)
2. If you are under 20, you should pose without a shirt. After 20, forget it.
Maybe you can try this out and see what happens…

Ugh, I feel your pain. I did not have any luck at all on PoF (I actually had to create my profile three times because I would sign up, log off and try to log on again and my profile had been deleted) I actually just tried OkCupid a few weeks ago and did not have any luck on there either. Strangely enough, I got a few responses from people outside of the US.

I guess I must be a dating enigma as well, I think my profile pics are good, I took a great deal of time to actually write the profile and still nothing. I’m starting to take it personally….

You know how you seem to find what you’re looking for when you’re not looking for it? Maybe this is one of those things….

just a thought :)

I would love to think that’s the case, that I’m too good, but I know better to delude myself. It’s good to think that way when I need an ego boost however!
