How to create the perfect online dating site profile to attract and find your perfect match
It might appear to be a tiresome or boring formality, but an online dating profile is important. It sets the tone for how potential romantic matches see you and perceive you. By the way, there is no right or wrong profile pic for Internet Dating.
If you are a woman and your profile picture is in a skimpy bikini, you are going to be perceived as possibly flirtatious and sexy and probably get a corresponding response. If you are a woman wearing a business suit, sitting behind a desk, you are going to be perceived as serious and corporate, perhaps a bit more formal. If you are a guy and you are not wearing a shirt, you are giving out a certain message. If you are a man in front of a private jet, you are also giving out a certain message!
If you want to do the bikini thing, go for it. That may well be the image you want to put out there, and that is fine. Young people do totally different profile pics to older people. We would suggest though that you put a profile pic on

Tired of watching Netflix alone? Why not try Online Dating for the first time?
Online dating sites really are the best way to meet people, and to be on a dating site is just something that people do these days, if they want to meet others. There is no longer a stigma attached to online dating and there is no embarrassment to in anymore like there was a few years ago.

If you are new to online dating, you may find the whole experience a little daunting in the beginning. Truth be told, like most things, you should take your time.

You will then refine your search criteria, and think “Oh gosh, this is too good to be true”!
But we do have some advice for y

Opening Lines: How To Charm Your Way Into Their Dating Site Inbox Once You Found Someone You Really Like…
When it’s finally time to go ahead and contact someone for the first time, what is the best approach? Consider the following guidelines while still adding your personal style.
Not too long. Not too short.
Some people opt for a simple ‘Hello, how are you?’ and leave it at that, whilst others choose to narrate their whole life story with a full medical history, which is probably not a good idea!
Our advice is to strike a happy medium. If you’re hoping for a reply, and that’s what it’s all about, we suggest at least 3 or 4 meaningful sentences, with a question or two to show interest.
Make it personal
People want to feel special – that you absolutely had to write to them because of their compelling profile. Include something that shows you’ve read their profile – for example:
- What do you like about their profile?
- Why do you think you’ll be a good match? (Our system shows what you have in common and shows

The Top Two Mistakes Most Guys & Girls Make When Trying to Approach & Seduce Good Looking People
The top two things that I’ve seen a lot of guys do. Most guys do this. Most guys make this mistake. The reason why I’m doing this now is because I only realised yesterday it’s actually on a sliding scale of the same emotional polarity, but your’e two different ends of the scale.
And I thought that’s really weird…
I’ve interacted with and it’s come down to actually trying to pull, trying to seduce girls, or whatever does this, and you know, I’m lucky because I’ve been able to see it both sides of the fence. I’ve been the guy who chose. I’ve made these mistakes. I’m about to tell you some stuff and I have made these mistakes believe me, but I’ve also been able to sit on the other side of the fence. I’m lucky enough to have a lot of female friends.

Mistake number one is putting them on a pedestal.
