Allo Vixen

Just curious.
Do you guys read our whole profiles or just the parts that you want to see.

My anser
Yes I Do Read All Whole Profiles. And I try to see who she is, and it not easy.

I get emails all of the time from guys that don't seem to have read through mine.

My anser
I don't Have any e-mail form woman, are interred at me, she see we are stupid man.
Do you think that you're the one that's going to change my mind on what i'm looking for?

My anser
No. I am not Perfect.
Different live style.
etc.


I mean if you're that wonderful then hey, I'm game! I think I have made my wants clear.
Why do you email anyway?

My anser
If a man ask for a date 50 % woman will say yes.
If a man ask to go at is place 6 % woman will say yes.
If a man ask for sex 0 % woman will say yes.

If a woman ask for a date 50 % man will say yes.
If a woman ask to go at is place 65 % man will say yes.
If a woman ask for sex 75 % man will say yes.

Am I a sucker for punishment, incredibly optimistic? or I am On believable stupid !
As humans we need certain needs fulfilled.. to be loved is one of them.. to fill certain desires is another.. but you can't have one without the other and be totally content and happy with your life.. it's human nature.
Some people tole me, I will find some one, she will Be able to see in my heart.
If some strange people cant find each other, why not me?

I hope it will anser your question!

Actually, (peterg22), the car was moving originally at about 100km when she slammed the shifter into park, fortunately a 1989 Toyota Corolla just keeps on puttin' at 100km even in park (as long as you don't press the gas pedal), so I shifted it back into gear and after a few more seconds she rams it into park again. I laughed at her and so she grabs the wheel and yanks us across 3 lanes of traffic. She got a black-eye out of that move, and when the car came to a rest I opened the door from the inside, kicked her out and threw her a blanket. We were heading West to Toronto and were at a Y in the road - one said Quebec city and the left one was Montreal. She wanted to go to Quebec city and that is one place that I don't want to go - easy to get lost on that route for days if you don't know Quebec...

I only had enough funds and fuel to get to T.O. and she got her wish and ended up in Quebec city hospital psycho ward which was a familiar place for her in the years before I met her. I didn't realize how bad off she was until it was too late.

Oh, we are still good friends though, the mother of my second child and well, I should mention she is schitsophrenic. I forgot to add that she was screaming at me all the way from Moncton NB until we hit that Y at Quebec city. She saw a hospital sign and demanded to go to the hospital. I found out later that some old couple picked her up and brought her there and that she got a black eye out of the ordeal, and that she was transferred to Toronto where we met up again (I guess I'm a sucker for punishment...)

We've been together ever since but since the baby (3 years ago) the attraction has dwindled and I am seeking better things. I need someone more stable in my sons and my life, which is why I'm on POF but lack the effort probably necessary to find someone here. I just don't have the time...

It was only humorously that I threw that comment in there but now you know most of the rest of the story...

I read the entire thing.

It's a page and takes only a minute. It's great insight to the way a girl thinks and views herself. The more she writes the better. If I'm interested after an enitre page, than I think "I bet we could have great conversations and a few laughs together".

Ya like I got that much time on my hands I do on a weekends I dont have my kids so lets see since i been reading profiles and contributing to these threads since about 3:00p.m. I would say I read them thoroughly some i even think are funny and even send some emails to the ones I like and if they have a picture great but they had better not say I have a great sense of humor on it and not have something funny in profile because to me thats a wrong impression and I immediately not bother ...... Like the wise man once said I have a great sense of humor I laugh

I honestly can't recall the last time I reviewed someones profile..LOL!

I'll talk to all of you, then if that goes well, I'll review it. if I see something I don't like, I'll never write again.. I know someone of you females are looking at this post, and checking out my images and wondering "I wonder what goes on in that little mind of his"..Well, I can tell you what us men are really thinking..Do you really want to know? Okay, I'll tell you..

--> NOTHING

We're just wondering around, looking around. This is the only natural inclination of man kind. We're trying to come up with some new programs, but's kinda hard when your minds a blank.

I don't think that everyone reads all of every profile, male or female. If it keeps your interest then one would tend to read on.
But as someone said, they all basically say the same thing. If some are as wonderful as they say, or think they are, then why are thy single or are they single??. It could also be that if they are that wonderful that they were expecting perfection out of there partner and drove them nuts.
If it is a great and different profile im sure anyone would read the whole thing.

I look at the pictures... check out the age... check out the interests, and then check out the profile. If there's anything decent in common, I give them an email. What's an utter no go for me, is when they leave no interests, little or no bio, their spelling and grammer is atrocious, and all they go on are "their jiggling and bootilicious goods". Then... I don't bother. Funny that those ones have the most "favourites" then anybody else. What the crap.

Eh. In short... yeah I do.

Hmm. It's not just the guys, it's women, too. I state on my profile that i'm not really into IM-ing or MSN-ing, yet I have women dropping their MSN address to me all the time. The reason I don't do it, is because i'm rarely on MSN and rarely ever reach the person via MSN, but it's odd why someone would think that a better convo would start up by doing that.

People, in general, don't read ads or descriptions. When I was trying to form bands, i'd get all these weird people that I had nothing in common, musically with. I guess that they really just wanted to play, but it's not gonna work when the differences are that vast.......it was really crazy, it's like, "did you read the ad? How did you think this was gonna work out, again?". Same with resumes.....people routinely apply for jobs that they have no qualifications for. You start to wonder why they even waste their time.

I cannot speak for all men but I generally do, although just because a woman says they are looking for this that and the other for a relationship doesn't mean that they won't chat to other people does it ?

Also ya never know what you think your looking for maybe the reason why the lady is single because she keeps going for the men that she thinks is her ideal when her true soul mate is nothing like she thinks she wants.

I am not saying this is true in all cases but surely it must have some truth to it.

I've had a few email me and apparently they didn't bother with the profile. It's all good, it's easy for me to say 'no'.
I do read the profiles and love it when they are entertaining and show who the person is. Those are few and far between unfortunately.

I read every profile before I decide to make first contact, however there is too high of a percentage of womans profiles that only have "ask me" in their profiles and those are the ones I never write to no matter how hot the woman is. I'm not a donkey whose willing to chase after a carrot on a stick. I want some indication that the woman has a personality to.

You must read all of the profile first!

I think it would be kind of weird to look at a picture and just throw yourself out there blind.It's kind of nice to get the feel of someone,before you make contact.In my opinion anyway.I usually read a profile,put it on my favorites list and go back to it at a later date.If I still feel that I would be interested in making contact,then i give it a shot.

Why do we need to do that when every woman's profile is the same? They all say the same thing...some ethereal nonsense about chemistry. If women are so much into chemistry then why are there so few women chemists?

Actually I do read the whole thing. Half the time that is the only reason I come on here. It gives me a good laugh and every once and a while I will read a profile that I have to respond to, just cause I like thier attitude or they said something I can really relate to. Anyway that is my input. I don't date alot but it is fun to read what some of you come up with on your profile. and how many of them you see on other sites.

I get the same thing. i am lookign female friends and maybe a female companion for more. I am looking forwoman only and i have man i state that I have a man, and am only loking for a woman. I get counlless e-mails from guys telling me how cute my pics are and that they wanna get with.. I mean what the he;; goes throught their mind when someone said WOMAN ONLY a bunch of time. Now sure I woudn't mind male friends, but every time I try to be friends with a guy turns out they only wanted to be my friend cause they thought they couldsteel me away from the person I was with, so yea...
I mean what is wrong them them.Do they not know how to read, or do they all think they are the greatest exception. I also DO NOT like older men, and i get stuff from 60 year olds. Now I have men blocked on here but other ssites do;'t give you that option..

I'll read a ladies whole profile before I email her.
Or if I recieve an email form someone, I immediately read her whole profile before responding.

A decent profile gives clues to what a persons interests may be, if she and I may be compatable, and I can find clues to possible discussion topics in the content of a profile.

I'd prefer to be able to send emails that say something more than just "How you doing?"
But that can be hard to do with a profile that says:
interests:stuff
about me:just ask

I always take the time to thoroughly read a woman's profile.
Once I'm done, then I bother to look if there's any pictures.
Of course, what a woman looks like makes little difference to me. The only beauty I care about is that which is inside. And that happens to shine right through anyway, and make any woman beautiful. :)

Why not read every profile just think of all the time you are spending here writing this stuff instead of reading profiles you can be here all night so if you put that much effort into these bloody threads at least have enough common sense not to say I dont read all the profiles but you manage to read every thread and then respond on here but not on an email and talk about it do people actually spend so much time in these threads then reading profiles???

If you cant multitask sorry about your luck but i do both and I always respond after I read profiles cause some are quite entertaining mind you i dont put much time into mine but I do understand so people do

You mean that there's a profile there, with the pictures? Holy shit!

Seriously though, i'm guessing that most guys search with the red headed cyclops south of the border. Now, I don't message anyone, no matter how good looking they are, if they don't have an interesting profile. I think that most people get sucked into the POF newbie trap of messaging "hotties" with vague profiles, only to find out that we get shot down by someone who really doesn't appear to have anything going for them in their life (judging by the profile, anyways). Live 'n learn. Reading is a very antiquated thing these days.....
