As I discussed in my previous post, How to Get a Reply from Your POF Dream Girl, Plenty of Fish.com is now the #1 online dating site in the world.   With so many members however, how does a guy make his profile stand apart from the rest?  Previously, I discussed the types of pictures a guy should use for his main photo, as well as include in his photo library.  Today I'm going to focus on the type of content a guy should feature in his bio.

The main bio section is for the user to breifly state their age, height, body type, profession, highest level of education achieved, and what type of relationship they are looking for (ie long term relationship, dating but nothing serious, hang out partner, ect).[space height="HEIGHT"]

Be sure to:

• Provide Accurate Information[space height="HEIGHT"]

• Be Honest About Your Intentions[space height="HEIGHT"]

In the next section, the member is provided an opportunity to briefly describe themselves.  Keep in mind the following:[space height="HEIGHT"]

• Girls do not read a guys description because she wants to learn about how much the guy loves to work out and stay in shape.  If you're in shape, the accurate photos you've uploaded of yourself (as discuss in my previous post) will depict that sufficiently.  No sense in going on about the obvious.  If you're not in shape, but you use this section to talk about how much you love to exercise, you're just going to look stupid since your photos tell a different story.

 

•  Keep the description of yourself short and sweet.  No one wants to read your life story.[space height="HEIGHT"]

•  Showcase your personality.  Talk about what makes you fun to be around, or how you're different than the other guys on the site.[space height="HEIGHT"]

•  Interject some humor.  Guys who are able to make me laugh by what they have to say in their profile will most likely always get a date from me.[space height="HEIGHT"]

•  Don't take yourself too seriously.  No one wants to date Hitler.[space height="HEIGHT"]

•  Don't brag.  If you're a successful guy, DON'T make it a point to bring it up!!!!  This is my #1 pet peeve!!!   I've found that guys who brag about their successes or how much money they make are either self-absorbed a-holes who think the world revolves around them..... or they're just plain liars.[space height="HEIGHT"]

•  This reminds me of another pet peeve of mine...guys who use their profession as their screen name.  I.e. Doctor76, Lawyer01, or Pilot35......barf!! (see above)[space height="HEIGHT"]

**Remember, females are a lot less motivated by looks then men are.  Females are more inclined to want to connect with someone  who has substance, rather than with someone who just has a hot bod and good looks. Just be your adorable self, take each date and person you meet with a grain of salt, and chalk every experience up (whether good or bad) as a great opportunity to have learned something new about yourself and what you're looking for in a partner.  Sooner or later, the right girl will inevitably come along so long as you keep your head and heart open.
