3 Largest Online Relationship Faults Adult Males Are Creating

By:


Regardless, it seems that countless of you just cant get it together. For example, I was lately browsing over the new online dating profile of a good buddy of mine. This guy is totally great. Hes undoubtedly a catch by any standards. But his profile made him look like the absolute dullest, lamest, most awkward version of himself possible. And his profile picture was of him doing a keg stand in college! Hes 31 years old now! And really hot, so its not like he was just trying to look younger or something. He said he thought it would be funny. Seriously? And this is a man who, in real life, actually is quite hilarious. There just seems to be something about constructing an online synopsis of oneself that makes men completely forget how to convey their awesomeness.

Now, I certainly dont mean to be sexist here; Im more than certain that there are a sad number of women out there who are currently flubbing up their online dating profiles terribly. But hey, Im a chick and Ive definitely spent more time looking at dudes profiles. Thats just how it is. So, in hopes that no one of either gender will feel neglected/persecuted, here are my top three online dating profile mistakes that I sincerely hope men will stop making:

1) Be originalreally

One of the biggest mistakes guys tend to make in their online dating profile is saying theyre funny, when really, they should just take all that empty typing space and be funny. Were smart girls. We know a sense of humor when we see one. And sadly, in the online dating world, we dont see one frequently enough.

But thats not the only point here; the real idea is to be original. Do you know how many guys are using the exact same five, generic terms to describe themselves? Yeah, pretty much all of them. Not that we ladies dont want a man who is dependable, funny, outgoing, easy-going, etc, but come ongive us more to work with than that!

Im sorry but if I saw a profile with nothing more interesting and promising than those adjectives on it, Id just keep on movinand so would the majority of other ladies who are worth a damn.

2) Mind the photo

Doesnt it feel like weve told you this before, guys? Okay. Lets go over it again: please do not do any of the following things with your profile picture when youre online dating: let it feature a keg/strippers, let it be of just an animal (actually a picture of you and your dog is kinda lame too, unless youre doing something awesome like hiking or saving a boat full of nuns together), let it be of you and your ex (seriously, some of you are still doing this. We dont care if its the most flattering picture of you)this list could go on for a long time.

Its safe to say that all we want you to do is present us with a nice, clear image of what you currently look like (no reachin back to the glory days, old timer; embrace your Silver Foxiness!) Dont worry about getting tricky. The goal is very simple here.

3) Back and forth forever

There is a lot to be said for the sweet anticipation of exchanging those first few getting-to-know-you, slightly flirtatious emails back and forth with a new find on a dating website. Its pretty great. And thats the beauty of cyber-dating; you get to pre-screen your dates without looking like a jerk for doing so.

But there comes a time when going through to process of online dating, with the emails and the various little online contacts, turns into a serious and terrible lack of trigger pulling. In short, we want you to ask us to meet in person.

This doesnt have to be complicated; suggest something simple and as pressure-free as possible, like coffee. It simply baffles women why it takes men so long to get to this point. I mean, if they arent interested, youll know it right away and come on, this is a pretty emotionally safe format in which to get rejected. You dont really have much to loseexcept a potentially awesome ladys interest if you drag your feet for too long.
