Did you know there are people you can hire to write your profile? I listened to Evan Mark Katz talk about his online dating "coaching" class and books. Geez...but I did change my profile. He said each line should be a "hook" that would interest different types of men. You need to make sure your profile is fun, playful, sexy, light...

Men need to feel "good" about themselves when they read it. I know, sounds weird, but that's what he said. I'll see what happens in the next few days.

Also, be SLOW to give out your phone number ladies! Make the men court you. There is a guy I just started corresponding with yesterday and when he asked me to call him or for my number, I declined. I asked him some fun questions and he responded with incredible answers. If you ask the right questions you can find out a lot about personality without it being like a job interview. Then, he asked me some really fun and introspective questions. I'm really liking getting to know someone this way. I did send my answers to his personal email; he said to eliminate spam. I was okay with that compromise.
