| What is your #1 Pet Peeve in Profiles
Posted: 6/26/2008 10:59:41 AM | Profiles that include contradictions. For a few examples, "I'm really shy, but I'm also really outgoing", "I don't like staying in, but sometimes I don't like going out either", "I love the outdoors....I hate bugs".
I understand that people like to be contacted from everyone, including both the people that want to go out as well as the people that want to stay in, but it doesn't give much insight into a person to include both in a description. | |

about the cliches yes, I even give a very short rant about people who post "don't want someone who's into head games" ... well again, DUUUH ...who does. Please, please, people do NOT put this in your profile, as it just signals that you haven't resolved your issues with a) people you've met on this site, b) your past relationships, c)your present relationships d) most people...
Happy fishing!

Posted: 6/27/2008 2:34:18 PM | This is a really Great site and hopefully one day I will meet HER.
I was on another dating site a while back, and my Pet peeve list would of been very long.
My only complaint on here is when a woman asks me 20 questions in her original (1st)message. I answer them fully/honestly.
Her reply back to ME is ONE WORD ! ? "cool" or I.C...etc.
Then they wonder why I don't keep in touch ?
Other than this... I luv this site (met a lot of Great friends)
In fact now my search is just for friends.

Posted: 6/29/2008 4:35:57 PM | People complaining that the opposite sex is not interested in fat people, usually those people are looking for skinny people themselves. 
I'm not kidding, seen this in several profiles. | |

Posted: 6/30/2008 10:42:18 PM | | I can speak for volumes for guys. I'm assuming it's happening to gentler ladies as well, interesting... Me and a few friends nicknamed it the POF-pic-reject-ritual. | |

Posted: 7/1/2008 2:11:40 PM | People who read your profile, see you are serious about this but send you smutty disgusting emails anyway? I will never get that. My profile in no way says I want that kind of contact and I am sure if they wanted to they could find exactly that somewhere else.
So far that is it. Only been here a week so time will tell if there are any more pet peeves for me. | |

Posted: 7/1/2008 8:58:35 PM | Contradictions in profiles, i.e. Body Type" Average, when the pictures clearly show BBW
People who respond to your profile that have obviously not read yours
Prefer Not to Say in key areas, like do you smoke or have children. | |

Posted: 7/15/2008 5:39:40 AM | I'm just wondering, is putting that you have children in your profile such a big deal? I mean I didn't put the ages of my children in my profile but I did put that I had kids, I think it's an important fact that really can effect if someone wants to message you or not.
Anyway it's listed a few times as a pet peeve, so I'm just curious.
I'd have to say my pet peeve is when when people don't even message you back to say not interested. I think that would be the decent thing to do. | |

Posted: 7/15/2008 8:42:57 AM | Allow me to clarify.
It's not whether you have children or not, it's if you select 'prefer not to say'... It's just one of those who don't have a darn choice about being honest, yet some people will still hesitate. | |

Posted: 7/15/2008 2:12:23 PM | Photo's with more than one person and not say who they are.
Profiles with no photos what so ever, and then they compain no ones intrested in them. I'm expected to put a pic up lol
Profiles that say Employment n/a and there looking for a guy with a car..money..cash and prizes. There are other sites out there for that
"send me a message and i'll respond" then send message - read, deleted and no reply
People with very little information about themself | |

Posted: 7/15/2008 3:35:25 PM | from custmirz "also, people who go on this DATING SITE but are not single/not looking"
yep, always gets me why non single people continue to haunt this place, use facebook for your friends instead lol also couples who go to POF events to socialize , which is why I lost interest in going to them, after a few, | |
