So you have joined an online dating website, everything seems to be fine and smooth sailing, until you get to the part that you have to create your online dating profile. What do you say in your profile? How do you say it? How do you impress those who read? Perhaps these are just some of the questions you have in mind when confronted with the problem of how to create an online dating profile. And believe me, these are questions you don’t want to take for granted. Think about it – in online dating, people get to know you through your profile. That’s how you create first impressions and you surely want reading it to be an interesting and pleasant experience. Let me show you some nice tips on how to create the perfect online dating profile:

- First and foremost, your online dating profile should create emotional attachment. Don’t just write: “I love to travel and go to far away and new places.” Instead, write something along the lines of: “Traveling is my passion! I live to travel. Whenever I go to different countries and different places, I learn something new – not just about the culture and the beliefs of the people who are living in it, BUT also about myself. It helps me appreciate life even more. When I visited the Philippines and checked out their rice terraces, I could feel and see history!” It’s lines like this that create an emotional attachment. This helps girls picture visiting Thailand, Philippines, etc. with you. If you describe stuff by putting out a list, do you think you could create an emotional attachment with them? FAT CHANCE! Women are emotional. Keep that in mind. And that is something you need to take advantage of.

- “My buddies say that I’m nice!” For crying out loud, cut it! I’ve seen guys left, right, and center do that countless times. For one thing, they don’t know your friends. Telling them that your friends think you are great doesn’t tell them anything. Matter of fact, it would even kill your chances. People viewing your profile may think that you are just bragging. Instead of saying that, I’d be much better to tell them about the things that you love doing. And again, say it in a very emotional way – show through your words how passionate you are. For example, in your profile, if you are someone who loves volunteering and helping homeless people, write something like – “Saturday – this is my time of the week. I volunteer and help homeless people…spending three hours rebuilding their ruined homes and helping them get their normal life back!”

- Another reminder – don’t tell women that you are funny. Instead, show them why you are funny! As most of us know, women are attracted to humor. If women laugh just by reading your profile, that’s a great first step in the right direction. Your profie should feel like you are flirting with her. BUT what about those guys who are NOT funny by nature? Here’s a tip – start reading funny books, those that are filled with humor. Watching comedy movies and going to comedy bars should also help. Some amount of humor should rub on you in the process.

- NEVER ever say in your profile how successful or financially well off you are. Women, or better yet people in general, hate men who loves to brag about themselves. Well, you may attract women by showing off how wealthy you are – those women who are interested in nothing BUT how fat your bank account is. I’m sure you don’t want that. HOWEVER, keep this in mind, women are extremely attracted to men who are very confident. So instead of bragging about yourself and your achievements, be confident. Add a little humor and show them how passionate you are. It won’t be long before chicks dig you!
