Posted: 8/21/2011 9:11:00 AM | Ah, Starflyte...you just don't get it.
Since you decided to fling poop...here you go:
Your photos make me, want to walk on the opposite side of the street. Who takes photos of themselves in underwear? Seriously? You're not a 19 y/o girl with a perfect body.
Second, learn about body language. Flaming gay men, hold their backs like you are in half your photos.
Third, 2 blurry shots on a roof top with a creepy shirt on....Priceless.
I went to read your profile open minded, and stopped by paragraph 2. The interest section is usually reserved for short 1-3 word phrases. Not for sentences beginning with "I".
I've been on 1 date from PoF. She contacted me. I was bored, I met up with her, she got pissed when I wouldn't sleep with her. There's another one that I've had 3-4 dates planned with and one of had to cancel. We still talk occasionally.
I have pretty high standards and won't date a girl who's significantly outside of my league (meaning that her life is in shambles or she's sadly, VERY unattractive). | |

Posted: 8/22/2011 9:56:47 AM | I've been on 3 dates in about 12 days and gotten 7 numbers. Because date 3 flubbed her chances at a second shot (by showing me a naked pic of herself on her phone no less), my date with her today has been cancelled indefinitely. Tomorrow is date 2 with girl 2, and Wednesday is date 1 with girl 4.
If you read my profile, you'll realize that luck hasn't got a thing to do with it. Before I actually started using them for DATING, I was a profile reviewer for several sites. Now I'm no mathematics major but...let's judge a method by its results here.
*Edit* I just bumped girl number 2 up to today. Taking the afternoon off. Did I forget to mention that a little spontaneity goes a long way? | |

From a profile reviewers perspective...the pics are pretty bad man....I got no reason to bust your balls. It doesn't much matter whether you feel like a "sexy beast" in them if theyre not serving their intended function...which is to attract women to want to know more about you: method = result right? I'm not very photogenic to say the least. I get around that by finding my "bad sides" and avoiding them as much as practical. It almost looks as if you did the opposite my friend.
The profile itself gives a lot of information but but lacks organization that makes it easy to read (starting off with a series of contradictory statements and ending with an edit). I'm no profile Sith Lord and I understand that these can be frustrating times in the dating world; but were here to help.
Besides...one must never be to proud to do what is necessary to ensure a clean victory (emphasis on the CLEAN). Honor over all (Navy Hymn ode). | |

Posted: 8/22/2011 8:12:04 PM | I think I've been on two...I've had TERRIBLE luck on here..most of the men I'm interested in look and pass..or they take my number and text..text...text...or email..no call!
I've had guys tell me I'm too old to have sex with, that I am too fat...many things..I don't think internet dating is for me....oh..and the men in San Diego? They don't even bother to respond to my emails...shallow!
I''m gonna give up on dating..but the forums are pretty funny. | |

Posted: 8/25/2011 1:06:33 PM | I think I've been on about 10-15 dates since I started being an active participant on this site in May. I'm constantly tweaking my profile. I've met a lot of really nice people, been stood up a couple of times (not in my "date count") by people I now believe to either have been married or falsely advertising.
Also, regardless of how I say it, I get the "texters" which drives my 40-year-old self batty!
I too, hate first dates, but aside from arranging a marriage, I have no other option than to go on as many first dates as it takes to find the one who wants me as much as I want him.

Posted: 8/28/2011 1:30:35 PM | Usually when you are interested in a woman,don't just ask for her number. Make a date right away! You will know on the first meeting if there is chemistry or not. Why waste time texting or phoning?
Woman hate the small chit chat on emailing,texting they lose interest right away. | |

Yep..I counted..the last 10 guys i've exchanged contact info with have NOT called...even when I called and left a voicemail. They text, text and text. I asked them to call, I'm tired of texting..they continue to text.
Then when it comes to actually agreeing to meet? They don't commit to a time and place..they just say "let me know" or "lets hang out on Sunday" then they never follow up! It shouldn't be this difficult. | |

Posted: 8/28/2011 3:56:33 PM | I don't own a cell phone so texting isn't an option (thank goodness!).
I PREFER several emails leading up to phone calls FIRST! I can tell early on, if we are even closely compatible or not. I see no reason to go on a "date" with somebody that is clearly the polar opposite of what I seek.
So whoever made a general blanket statement about what women prefer... you got it wrong, when it comes to me. | |

Posted: 8/29/2011 1:53:46 AM | havent been on any,but i have ran into a girl's page that i met from myspace then in person lol..
i dont get any dates or replies simply due to my lack of providing a picture and an "about me" that tells my whole life story,though i thought thats what dates were for.
lol
idk whyi dont post a pic,or write about myself.

I like to text but within reason! You might be lucky though, that you don't have a phone. The challenge I have is that these men text all the time..no emails, no phone calls..ever! Even to ask me out!
I agree with you, a couple of emails, perhaps messaging a little before the phone call. Although, sometimes I've found that we are ok on line, but over the phone can't seem to hold a conversation. I think all of this internet and texting has really caused some people to lose conversational skills!
There used to be something about no texting on my profile, but I was told it was too negative and childish, so I too it off. | |

Posted: 9/3/2011 10:07:20 PM | | I've been on POF three different times since 2006 or 2007. I've met several (I don't even know a number?) but the only relationships I've ever had have been with those I met IRL until this last time I joined when I moved to a new town. Here, I met 3. Dated one for 3 months and another for 4 (and counting) | |

Posted: 9/5/2011 2:15:42 AM | I've been using pof for about a year also, and been on at least 15 dates. I do experience the same thing a lot. My theory is that women get bored very quickly, and they seem to like when you kinda guess what they are feeling, and if they think any other guy fulfill that irrational need, they just gonna discard you and then jump to the "new guy".
POF is a great tool to meet great women, rejection is just part of their nature, the more you deal with rejection the easiest it gets to accept it. I'd say you can remedy this by being yourself, a great woman is waiting for us out there we just have to believe it and keep walking the long road. | |

Posted: 9/5/2011 11:12:34 AM | Ive been on 3 dates in the last 4 or 5 years since ive been on POF, and all my experiences have been pretty Bad. One chick lied and was married and she got caught wail talking to me. The other was a girl who lied compleatly using someone elese pix. She showed up on our date and she was 300 plus pounds. And last but not least the ex-fat girl who needed some help with her extra skin... if you catch my drift.
This site has become more of a place for fun than for dating. I love putting out thousands of emails and not hearing a responce. its kinda funny.
So dude if your getting dates and numbers, ride that wave.... | |

Posted: 9/26/2011 5:55:11 PM | | I've recently come to the conclusion that people turn to online dating only so they can say that they're trying without putting any effort into it. It is also an excuse to find Mr./Miss perfect and ignore everyone else who has the slightest issue, which without online dating, would at least get a first date. | |

Posted: 9/27/2011 12:15:18 AM | I have been on countless dates...so many I cannot count them. Yes, I had to kiss many frogs before my prince found me.
That being said, I prefer when the gentleman took the time to dial and talk on the phone rather than have numerous superficial texts/IMs/emails. This medium of online dating is excellent as an introduction but at some point, we need to connect in a more human and real way. It's difficult to get excited about characters on a text or computer but so much more enticing to hear a sexy voice over the phone ;) | |

Posted: 9/27/2011 2:17:45 AM | Hello,
I disagree with you regarding the male topless shots. Personally if a man as got images of himself with very few clothes on, be him buff or wobbly, i tend do think that they're mainly on here for casual hook ups & nothing else.....
Why on earth would you want to date someone who wants to get his kit off for all to see?? | |
