angry profiles..would you date them?Page 3 of 9    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
I would never interact with a girl who has:
(a) an angry profile
(b) pics in which she doesn't smile
I usually don't have a large amount of tolerance for the ones with a big long list of "must not be" criteria either.

And if she messages me with her views about my profile then she's getting blocked faster than my toilet on boxing day.

No. It shows there is more anger and more negativity to follow.

No, those angry guys are a bummer man. But I do sometimes get a chuckle over their venting.
They've lost their cool. Who wants a guy whose lost his cool, I ask you?
Then what, he'll kick grandma next?
No thank you.

it doesn't seem angry almost at all; it seems... well... wistful and cynical a little? Maybe a tad bucket listish?

But not angry so much; though maybe a LITTLE defensive...

I'd give your profile a 6 on the anger scale. You sound tired and fed up.
If I happen to come across a 9 or 10 again, I'll let you know.

That's a BIG negatory, good buddy.

You surely can't "fix" 'em, and they'll just drag you down....down....down if you try.

I like to take the glass half full approach and focus on all the well thought out positive profiles out there. Yes Virginia they do exist! None of our profiles are perfect as are any of us :). My thought is that the ones that come across as angry really don't realize the effet that they have on those who read them. Many people are not good at grammer, communication or even getting down on paper what they mean to say. I am one of those. We are expected to write about ourselves and who we are and what we are looking for in a paragrah or 3..that's not easy! So I try and not judge the person completely by how they came across on paper, but yes...the tendancy to pass them by is there for a more positive one. I've come across angrier, downright mean forumites than I have profiles, some people are viscious out there! lol...

Anger always gives bad Karma and is a predictor of mental wholeness

How angry is my profile?


I would say about 5. Disillusioned, probably... jaded, most likely. Would make me pause and wonder. But then I come to this:

First Date
Highly unlikely to have a blind date through a dating website ever again.

I'm old school.
The only way you are going to meet me is by bumping into me in public.

and I would click delete on your note. No point. You're not interested.

Hmmm...Miss Star? Duly noted! lol


OT: Sometimes I can understand how some folks vent in their profiles. Online dating is not for the faint of heart as I am sure most of you know. Then again, when I read an angry profile, I do stay clear....indicates to me that the one writing isn't really ready to date

I've read a few angry profiles and I don't want to even go there, block/delete/next/f.o.

There are enough angry posters in the forums, I wouldn't want to have coffee with them let alone date them. You get what you give.

i post a sarcastic remark re racists as my kids are of color. not angry. however those who put down members of opposite sex in general or whine incessently or say there are no good men or women, are not considered a good way to start in my opinion.

I actually understand that there are angry profiles on here. I think those are from people who either are still venting about a past or current relationship failures/issues. And we all have been there in some matter or not.

Or they really do not believe that this is a realistic forum to meet some one. So they get to be some one they might not be in person.

But i feel releasing anger just randomly out to people who may not be the cause of your stress is actually more bad for you. I love to workout when I am stressed. It so releases it. And yes getting mad momentarily is fine, but if you carry it and dont resolve it, it is unhealthy.

If these women get so many bad emails it is time to move off the dating sites. As for the no cheats or liars bit, that is just plain silly. Who is going to own up to that? Have to expect all sorts in cyberspace and not take it too seriously. It is easy enough to delete and block.

Just negative profiles don't solve the problem, they just scare people off


Which just makes them even angrier, lol.
We've all had bad experiences, but the people who focus on them will zero in on everything you do they don't like and lump you in with the other people from their past. And they will use that reasoning to remain angry and bitter.

They can stay angry and bitter, but I won't be a part of their life. Exit stage left.

For men if the woman is pretty enough I am sure she will get just as many daters mad profile of not
For women however I'd say no they would not date a angry profile mainly because they have greater odds of others who are interested in her.

You know, I was tempted to vent at one time. But I have to remember, the men on POF are not responsible for my choices, I am.

And an angry profile is a turn off.

Sometimes I read the angry profiles, just out of curiosity. There are more than a few I have seen that are downright scary. No, I won't 'get involved' with angry. I was in a long marriage with an angry bitter man and I will never go down that road again.

The following is a few things from the worst profile I have seen on here. I can't imagine any woman would want to get involved with this kind of attitude.


ya all have your standards to high we are all human and age has wore us down go look on the mirror your no barbie either..... .so all you prim a donnas need not to apply hell you wouldn't even a got this far lol.....Now the trick part before you send me a message go look in a mirror will you fit on my harley (heritage)with out over loading her. If ya'alls gonna be picky I can to ...can you wear a bathing suite and lay on the beach with out the coast guard showin up thinkin its a beached whale so if you have made it this far and i have not offended you. send me a message .and for them that i have offended or up set well im not sorry cause thats the way i feel .....OK update some off you just don't get it so i will spell it out there is a scale they take your height and then it gives you what you should weight if you are OVER that by more than 20 pounds. then please hit the move on button don't waste your time.
