You've probably gone over the personals section of your newspaper before now. There are literally hundreds of personals in there and online as well. Searching the online dating services can get pretty boring when you see the same headlines for profiles all the time. You know the ones-"Single guy likes walks on the beach"-yeah, who doesn't, right?
Here's how to make your personal profile pop. When you post it online through your favorite adult online dating service, get ready to find the replies rolling in on your email every day…
The first part of your online dating profile that's seen will be your headliner. A headliner is a one sentence introduction to yourself, and should stand out farther than the rest of your profile put together. This is the first place that you need to get creative. So you need to ask yourself but one question: what about me is unique? This isn't the place for false modesty, nor is it the time to allow your glaring low self esteem shine through.
If you truly can't think of anything unique about yourself, ask some one who knows you. Have you done something lately that you've never done before? Try "First time bungee jumper seeks partner for next fall." Are you a regular bungee jumper? "Seasonal bungee jumper seeks partner for next fall" would be good. Get creative, but walk the fine line between weird and interesting.
Now set that aside and take out a piece of paper. Write down everything about yourself that you can think of that you would want a potential mate to know. Notice here the operative word is potential. Do not write about your innermost workings, save that for later. Right now you just want the other members of your online dating service to become interested in you. Make your online profile interesting, short, and to the point. Do not whine about your past loves lost, or speculate on how someone as great as you cloud ever be dumped. Now is the time to get real, do you really want any kind of relationship that started out with lies?
Two last words on creating your personal online dating profile: spell check.
