DATING TIP #004
STAND OUT BY AVOIDING CLICHES
Clichés in your profile are a quick way to make you appear like everyone
else. When writing your profile, try to avoid clichés and to focus on
more unique aspects of your life.
Recently
Date.com surveyed 3,000 of its members (see our News
section in this issue) to find out what the biggest and
most annoying clichés were that people used in
their profile. The winners (which you should avoid at
all costs) were:
"No
liars or game players!"
" This isn't enough space to sum up my life" followed by a long summation.
" I know how to treat a lady"
" I enjoy long moonlit walks on the beach"
Try
to be more original in your approach to describing your
interests. Instead of saying "I know how to treat
a lady," be more specific (but honest): "If
I'm interested in a woman, I like to do extra things
for her to show how much I appreciate her" (give
example if desired). Or take an even more unique (but
honest) approach. "I may rarely open the car door
for you, but my car is paid off!"
When
you are reading profiles of people you are attracted
to, you'll likely see that they avoid clichés
and have a unique way of presenting themselves. This
is what you want to accomplish. Be creative and original
in your approach. It will attract more interest from
others. (SOURCE: Online Dating Newsletter - www.onlinedatingnewsletter.com)
