What Do Women Look at First When They Receive a Message on A Dating Website?
Posted by Single City Guy in Question for Women on January 7, 2010
I’m finding myself in a bit of a quandary. I believe women are receiving great messages from one on OkCupid, but aren’t responding to them. Messages by my dating coach and myself seem to have the same results. They do seem to be visiting my profile. While the message seems good enough to gardner some attention, they aren’t good enough for a response. I’m trying to figure out what the problem is here.
My thought is women may be looking at my profile first before the message, or reading the message than the profile to see if it’s worth responding to. So the question I have for women is this: when you received a message do you read the message first or view the profile first?

Do You Date When You Travel?
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating on October 29, 2009

Next week I’m going to be in the lovely city of Cleveland, for business. Not every single moment is going to be business related, there’s going to be plenty of time for me to wander about the city and explore. I’ve been thinking it may be a great opportunity to go on a date with someone in a completely different city to help broaden my horizons. I’ve considered scouring the dating websites for a date while I’m there. Has anyone else done something like this? Any recommendations? Have you had good or bad experiences?
