What kind of profiles do you like?
Posted: 5/9/2007 1:40:28 AM
Do you like the ones written with humor? Or romance? Or do you
enjoy the ones that tell a story? Or the ones that are laid-back
and casual?

Personally, I like the ones written with fun and humor. I really
like it when I get the sense that the person if fun, energetic,
and loves to laugh. I guess I enjoy it when the writer's personality
jumps off the page, but I don't know how to explain what I feel


So what does everyone else enjoy reading?

The ones that are relatively easy to read...have at least an attempt at decent grammer/spelling, and above all else the ones that are different from "Hi my name is blah blah blah and I like movies and music!!!!""

I like the really long and boring ones like mine.

Reading them saves me money that I'd otherwise be spending on Ambien

Now Bill...just what is your case for sanity? hmmmm? When a Man poops in the woods, do we not hear the rustle of Maxim Magazine? These are the things you should be looking for in a profile. A woman willing to clap with one hand, while baking you a cake in her underwear.

Anyway, back on topic...I like humor and sincerity...while both are desireable traits when looking for a partner, ya gotta read the profiles with your BS meter on at all times.

Peace

I'd rather she not poop in the woods while baking me a cake...

I like the funny, quirky ones that tell enough about the person that I can compose funny, quirky opening message. It is frustrating to read a profile that gives me hope, but leaves me with nothing to work with.

Real and honest ones. Mostly with emotion.

I like Alis' profile. I also like her front and backside as well!

Seriously, it is short sweet and to the point with a dash of her wit and charm. I hate these fricken novels some of these women write. I'll just move on unless they got a really nice rack. Oh, sorry Ali forgot you were ...Ooooooooffff!

*throwing a pillow at the captain*
I have a frickin novel, and I like it. Keeps the ADD boyz away...

Personally, give me a profile that's fun and funny and warm and inviting and a little sexy ANY day.

Sincere can be good, but hard to hit the fine line between "open" and "maudlin".

The very best (and I'm a little bit of an expert here, unfortunately) is the profile that gives you the feeling that you are sitting on a couch next to the writer, and they are just telling you who they are- in their own style, at their own pace. They can be funny or imaginative or killer sexy or so quiet you almost don't want to breathe while you're reading it....

There is someone for EVERY one of us out there. And our profiles only need to speak to the ones that are attracted to who we truly are. So it doesn't matter what style it is, as long as the person has put genuine thought and energy into it.

Thanks for the pillow Cooky It's 1:40 am I have to get up at 5:00 and I need to lay my head. Can't sleep for some dang reason.
You do Not have a fricken novel. It is a short story and very concise. I actually like yours better than Alis' because, at least with you, I know where I am going to be every moment of the date and can plan accordingly! Very detail oriented!
Love ya like my sister from another mister!

P.S. rewriting mine. Going with that sex appeal angle! Thanks Cook!

I enjoy profiles that have a nice variety to them. One that can make me smile, and laugh. And one that I can actually learn something about this POF'er.

...The ones that have texture and depth enough, to reveal a genuine warmth and quirkiness, which round out their apparent cosmic wit! <--Mouthful!!

Damn SSG, you are so damn picky.

Oh, and happy birthday.

I can't say I like one type of profile. If they have a sense of humor regarding this process, it is likely to catch my attention and I will write and comment on it. But I don't do this as an overture normally. It's more of a nod.

I like all different kinds, if it's clear some genuine thought and effort went into them. But I'm strongly inclined not to bother contacting a woman if she can't even be bothered to check for misspellings, or writes only a couple of lines that tell me almost nothing about her. (That describes at least one third of the women's profiles on this site.) Why? Because she couldn't make it more clear that she's not motivated to meet guys, if she flat out said so in her profile.

I like mine, it's very humorous.

I made it so the potential love can scan the first word of each mini paragraph get a short version of my traits.

It also acts as a sieve. If the woman is so daunted at the length of my profile they don't bother to read any part of it then I'm glad they kept on clicking.

I like the one's with bikini shots in them. They're normally accompanied by a joke like "I want a guy who wants me for me and not just my body."

Now Bill, it's not polite to lie in the forums. I know for a fact that you much prefer that ones that are the epitome of crazy-woman. Ok, there was something about hair color as well, but crazy was on the top!

Judging from what I've seen in the forums? No, 5'7" might be too short for sanity.
