| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 4/29/2006 10:57:45 PM | wowmom, And you think that most women wouldn't do the same? I can't possibly agree with you on that one. Some men just as some women will rarely read the entire profile if they like what they look at. Call it human nature. They will send a note or IM on the spot and if there's an answer then they will. I had a few women who IM me and after about 10 minutes of chatting, they realized where I was from...lol
On the other hand, if someone is serious about a future relationship, then he or she should for sure. | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 4/30/2006 3:08:11 AM | I know for a fact that some men don't read my profile as they e-mail and say they read my profile and would I be willing to chat? I respond saying chatting is all good as long as they understand my status.
Them: Status? you mean separated? I am for real and looking for long term. Me: Um...yeah separated but if you READ my profile you would see that I have a boyfriend and that I mention him at least 3 times in it. The headline, my interests and about me.
*sigh* And they still don't get it.

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 4/30/2006 9:05:32 AM | A great photo may initially attract my attention, but it is what the person says in the profile that will keep my interest piqued. If I am interested in someone, I not only make sure that I have read the entire profile but also have fully absorbed what they are actually saying. That doesn't necessarily come from one read-over.
I likewise regularly write to people who have chosen to not post photos. Appearance is only one part of that total magic. | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 4/30/2006 10:34:01 AM | "Reads" J4F's profile.. so eh.. I see you have a bf.. do you still wanna get it on? *runs to save his a$$* :p
On a serious note.. I recently sent a message to a guy stating I thought his name was racially offensive. This dipsh!t immediately goes into about how he's not gay and how I shouldn't message him. I told him had he READ my profile it would be quite obvious i'm not gay. His next message stated he is still not gay and that he's only wanting messages from the ladies, and if admins/mods request or force his name ot change, what ever, bleh bleh. Then I blocked him. I figure, true stupidity in large numbers scares the bejeezez outta me. :p

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 4/30/2006 12:22:58 PM | | I read them from top to bottom , Why wouldn't you ? If you were curious about someone . However out of ten . i'll say maybe two have wit , intelligence , and some vestige of humor . Most have such attitude i don't bother , Attitude w/o intelligence is possibly my biggest pet peeve . Some of them have such a ,you must be this or that attitude ,They don't realize , once they finish their list of what they think they deserve , that person is way too good for them lol . | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/1/2006 5:54:02 AM | | I posted a pic of myself and quit getting hits, sooo I deleted the pic and now everyone keeps replying. I don't think I'm that bad of a person. I am cute and a little overweight. Whoopee . I think the guys only look at pics and don't read a thing! They are missing out on some nice women out there ! | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/2/2006 12:27:07 AM | I live in Florida.Vixen I cant speak about you personally, just what I see down here. Most of the profiles from my area pretty well say the same thing. Love the beach, love the water, love to dance. Love sports. First Date: Lets meet for drinks by the beach followed by a long romantic walk on the nice secluded beach. Oh, but dont ask for her phone #......... Unfortunately I do read them. I try to avoid the ones that have the risque pictures, hate to say it, but guys arent the only ones that want to take their shirts off or pants. You ladies need to browse some of the female ads on here. I look between 43 and 58 for age, see alot of legs and butt cheeks for woman in that age group. Saw one today by a school teacher in Palmetto. She was dressed in a thing that was briefer then a teddy, and stocking and garder belt. I know,, u think I am BS'ing so go check out FLLady58 But she said she was looking for a good clean nice guy for dating, possibly long term. For me I like to find the woman that sticks to something real, not a trip to Disney on the first date. I just stated the facts in my ad, never once promissed to wisk anyone off on a white horse. You want someone to read your ad, put something different in it. Like the truth. I am tired of meeting people who arent who they say they are, I am sure you ladies have the same problem. Oh,, but I did use the female scale for my weight.. I am 30 lbs over, was on steroids for my back for a while. So I am "just a few lbs over". But I do include full body shots. If we all want to really meet people not meat people we should all go with a truth in advertiseing sticker and a profile shot as well as full body. Oh ya and taken within the last year. Never fidgured how you ladies grow your hair so quickly :-) Reading the profiles ,, no problem,, fidguring out who and what is real,,what they really want,, big problem | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/2/2006 9:25:54 PM | | Actually, yes. I do read the whole profile. Thats why you will find I comment on something you have in your profile. Now Im sure Im not the only one who does that, but lets get real. Men are not the only ones who do that. I say I prefer slender women in my profile, but who messages me? Not the slender ones! | |
|
| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/7/2006 7:14:25 PM | That is one of the reasons i don't have a pic up. Of course we do the same thing don't we gal, we look threw the pics of the single guys and the pics that we find attractive we go to first. It is proven that is why on every single dating site out there they request that you put up a pic so that you will get more hits. I am not convinced it is the tenderloin cut that they want. These men who just ignore you because you don't look good or becuase you don't have a pic up, are looking for arm candy. Take me for instance. I am a great person, i hate head games and I am the only one i know who hasn't fooled around on her mate. or his mate. but for a year now my profile was looked over, thus i took the pic down. Did you know i accually had someone contact me to tell me how much his gf is better looking then i am. Yet he was single and looking............ that is why i choose to wait untill the person reads my profile. also the novel profile really gets annoying to read too. expecially if you have already read dozens of them. | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/7/2006 7:47:03 PM | I used to read whole profiles, and contact women based on what I found sincerely interesting about their profiles. I would either get one line responses that were useless or they would delete my message. So now I just send women pictures of my nipples and I get back double the replies! | |
|
| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/7/2006 9:14:43 PM | | I think it really says something about this site...its not that different then the bar scene. People are shallow. I'm guilty too, if someone doesn't have a pic then I don't respond to them...as for pics of nipples I don't reply to those either. I think my headline says it all, this site sucks! Why am I on here some might wonder...hmm although it sucks it is amusing if nothing else! | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/7/2006 9:26:11 PM | Some guys may think it's a game to get sex or what ever there intentions are online the dating sites that you are or after A lot of women like my self are very sincere and honest and wanting to find that friend to talk to. All men are not dogs Why dose it have to be a sexual encounter or some thing for a man/women to score on , I'm not beating up on men or women, I'm sure some women do the same, But both sexes that are that way really make it bad on the women/men that has a heart and means what they write with good intentions. I personally don't like that game player or the game and I don't judge any one until I really get to know them and it could take a long while to get to know them. I'm not easy and I'm smart enough to see though guys and some guys are good at it and what they say rather its true or not. My profile is an honest one to the heart. I'm 42 and been there and been hurt after a while you start wising up. I am on here because I do believe there are really nice guys on here and you know who you really are. Sex and games are not everything, I am looking for a friend that's the first step. I do read the guys profiles and some may be fake trying to be or sell them self of someone they are not as some women do the same to score. I do agree to a point that bars and dating sites is like a meat market but we all need to understand we all are not looking for that. Good luck on the truth and be careful who you are talking to and get to know that person real well and you will some day know in your heart if he/she is whom there are., , I know there will be people that disagree with me and that's there opinion. and we all are not looking for that. Good luck on the truth and be careful who you are talking to, so many pickup lines are out there on some both men and women, I know there will be people that disagree with me and that's there opinion. I do respect that at all means.  | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/7/2006 9:37:44 PM | The problem is that no-one trusts anyone anymore. If we post a profile that is sincere, women say we are players and are just saying the things you want to hear...in other words, we are lying. If we put nothing, or just a little of ourselves, we are boring. Yet even when we DO read your profiles and then message you we get deleted before ours is even read. What about giving us a chance too? I for one ALWAYS read a person's profile before I message them to make sure we have at least some things in common. Sorry to be blunt...I know of no other way to say it. | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/7/2006 10:24:10 PM | All good solid male/female relationships start with attraction (or at least should). I’ve been looking for my “Little Miss Right” for three years now on several singles sites. I get several flirts/emails from females - go read their profile and see that I don’t fit their age “REQUIREMENTS”
Things change real fast sometimes when the (very natural) boy/girl chemistry kicks in. And that is exactly the way it should be. Not long ago I got an email from a gal after a couple of emails she give me her phone number and ask me to call her. I called her and read the very first line of her profile to her - max age was 10 years younger than I am - she said “that don’t matter I am attracted to you.”
Back before people walked around with their ads (profiles) stuck on their forehead - Billie saw Susie and said “hi”
So - no - I do not always read their entire profile (esp the 12 chapter ones) before I do some version of “hi” to them. If we start talking - I will read every word two or three times - at that point I want to start to understand her. | |

| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/8/2006 12:09:24 AM | Ron... You must have something the rest of us haven't got Ron. But it was always my policy to at least try to find out something about the person I am interested in. After all, if I went by looks alone I would be propositioning every second female on this site. But believe it or not, sexual attraction is not all it's made out to be. Yes, you get your rocks off maybe, but at the end of the day you are still alone. I would rather have a plain Jane who is my best friend, confidante and lover than a super-model who is only good for one thing. But that is just my preference...you have yours. I have had a few experiences in my lifetime, some good, some not so good, some entertaining, some informative, some eye-opening but ALL academic. I learnt something new from my relationships. And I have yet to learn more. Therefore I explore every avenue. Now it is not always WHAT the person says in a profile that counts, but HOW it is related. You can learn a lot by the WAY a person writes about themselves, or even a particular topic. It is of no use to me if she is a great cook, or a great lay, or a great looker if she has no intellect for example. I may have two heads, but I can only think with one. But I digress... we are all looking for something. I know what I am looking for and I will try my damn hardest to find it. I realise I may die an old man, but at least I won't have settled for an incompatible partner, like I perhaps may have done in the past. But hey, we all make mistakes...good luck mate. | |
|
| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/8/2006 12:48:22 AM | I change my profile as often as I change my socks. (Ok ok, maybe even MORE often!)
Try not to take the site tooooo seriously...  | |
|
| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/8/2006 1:42:20 AM | it is what it is right? someone sees you , thinks you're cute and reads up a little on you , sends you a message and hopefully something starts from there.
it would be downright exhausting to read everyones profile. | |
|
| Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles? Posted: 5/8/2006 7:27:52 PM | i just got email from some guy saying how much he loved my profile and wanted to get to know me better. I read over his profile, and at the end of his profile was a warning: sorry single mothers, not interested Funny thing is....my profile clearly states that I'm a single mom! I mean C'mon!!!  | |

For someone who is dislexic you manage quite well. I have seen many, many people on this site who cannot even spell anywhere near as well as you can. I have to congratulate you, you obviously try, and you are also not a quitter. I wish you the best of luck and hope you will stay happy. Bill.
