| | What is your #1 Pet Peeve in ProfilesPage 1 of 22 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22) | I'd have to say 'married' and then they are looking for 'intimate encounter'.
Then again, I'd also have to say the whole intimate encounter thing turns me off completely.
Oh and people who don't have pictures but feel they can insult yours. | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 5:22:53 AM | Ha! The profile full of "prefer not to say" does crack me up.
I also get a kick out of people who make a comment about not responding if you don't have a picture but yet, they don't even have a picture of themselves up /boggle. | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 5:41:43 AM | People who enter the forums to socialize but have restrictions in their criteria that disallow contact for further discussions... so anti-social
Example: Must be within 75 miles.
Personally, I still can't figure the reasoning for that. In these forums, they are conversing with people outside of their 75 mile limit - confusing. | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 5:55:28 AM | I know what you mean. I've seen a few with age restrictions at 26, I almost make the cut-off! lol Dammit. Or they talk and talk in the forums, you try to email them and bam...they're looking for inner-city. So stick to the local forums! Just kidding.
I really can't stand when people say, "Oh, my friends put me up to this so I'm just checking it out, so um, whatever." Come on...are you that embarassed someone will find your profile? Doesn't make a difference of who you're lying about convincing you to come on. lol People that say that and email me, I usually end up getting to them by saying "So......you're a pushover then?" | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 6:09:30 AM | The 'Prefer not to say' more than once.
Bad spelling and grammar.
Under 'About Me', all it will say is 'Ask Me' ( Right, I'll get right on that!)
Not having a picture on their profile. | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 8:32:09 AM | NEGATIVITY!
ie...."I hate game players" ... "I hate liars"....etc.
Duh!!!
don't we all? or are you just really saying "I have some serious baggage and I think it is important that anyone interested in me know what it is up front"
None the less it a guaranteed way to make sure i don't reply...lol
I also have issues with the "cliches"... long walks on the beach, raging fireplace, fine dinning.
All of these are fine until you find out the person who listed these is land locked with no car to get to a beach, doesn't have or has never had a fireplace and usually goes out for dinner at the pizza hut all you can eat buffet for $5.99.
I read a profile to find out who someone is...not to find out who they wish they were. | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 8:37:21 AM | | I agree, especially with the negativity part. It surprises me how many people express a negative attitude towards the opposite sex and then wonder why they can't find a decent relationship. | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 9:05:02 AM | I just read a profile (not in "Ontario" forum) this morning that read:
How often do you drink..."Prefer not to say"
Marital Status.................. "Single"
Do you want children?....."Prefer not to say"
Do you do drugs?............"Prefer not to say"
Do you have children?..... "Yes"
It's not difficult to ascertain the lifestyle of this person... the rest of her profile proved me right.
The reason I searched her profile was because she was complaining about the lack of interest in a serious relationship with her... go figure. | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 9:11:47 AM | thats an odd question to be in profiles though... its like asking if you cheat on your taxes, or drive too fast, or kill people in your spare time..
o.t. - no pics, and yes i realize not everyone is able to get pictures on here so easily. just wish i could see the people some times.
ok i dont really mind that much lol | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 6:26:13 PM | Height restriction- Must be 5`11 or taller, this like asking womens measurements
Sexy males only - So now there the person that judges what`s sexy or not.
Must have good job - What`s good job ? This makes you better person ? One word Gold Digger.
Women that say must have nice car - Its not because they interest in cars, they just want you have nice one for status symbol. With these nice status symbols your pumping carbon dioxide into are breathing air, polluting it. Here five dollars take cab b**ch.
Anyone with these in there profile, well it be cold day in hell before I message them.

Posted: 7/1/2005 6:58:32 PM | | mysticalinfluence2004, you just hit the nail on the head! Everything that you've mentioned is definitely true and some of those women know it! Another that gets my goat (I've always wanted to say that! lol) is the whole restrictions thing! "Must not be this, must not be that"! "Age must be this"! Makes my blood boil!!!! | |

Posted: 7/2/2005 12:27:10 AM | The one that gets to me the most is, the profiles that state "I'm just looking to meet people, I'm not picky or judgemental. I'm not good at selling myself on these things so if you want to know more just ask". So you ask, How long have you lived in _ _ _ _? What do you enjoy doing to unwind after a long hard day at work?
And the results of the questions they suggested you ask? Read Deleted. How is that looking to meet people?
Would it be better if I said, "look **** Put more **** in your profile?"
lol I'm just kidding, but it does not make any sense to me. Their loss not mine!

Posted: 7/2/2005 2:11:37 AM | | The one I just dont get is they mark off looking for friends and you say sure ok and start chatting ith them and they know you are looking for a serious relationship and then lose it on you if you mention another female to them or you are going on a date. I just dont get it... no reason for that. maybe they need to read their own profiles. | |

Posted: 7/2/2005 2:18:47 AM | | Kobie I usually check the the voting history if filled with muscle heads you usually get the idea what they looking for. I look at Appears on 50-200 members friends lists if really high I won`t bother either. This off top but I know what you mean. | |

Posted: 7/2/2005 2:35:46 AM | Bradwt on page one, you crack me up.
Had a good laugh with all of your answers and the more I laughed the more I realized I feel the same. With one exception of the high on the list of thingy. A lot of those can be someone who placed them there to get back to them later so I cant take that as negitive.
Worst peeve of mine though is
Want to know about me, email!!!! Pompous donkeys, both female and male. Yikes. I hate pulling conversations out of people. I'd sooner be in labour and have a hang nail at the same time. | |

Posted: 7/2/2005 8:31:29 AM | even better jag... just saw one today and I will quote it.
I am not superficial at all and can't stand people like that!!! If you like what you saw in my profile and not a creep please hit the contact now button at the bottom of my profile. Please make sure you have a pic up on your profile as I will not message someone back who does not have a pic on their profile or has a bad pic. Thank you and goodluck!
Now wouldnt that make her superficial??? Can you say oxymoron? | |
