Don’t Write Too Much On Your Online Dating Profile

This is another type of profile we must avoid to succeed in online dating; The Novelist. I don’t think I have go  in depth explaining as the name speaks for itself. But there is no harm looking into this type.

Few days ago I came across a nugget of gold when I enquired about a mail that has been circulating around the office about salary increments. I asked a female colleague whether she saw it to get her views on it. Guess what she told me? “If it has a scroll bar, I don’t really read it.” Isn’t that a jewel?

We need apply the same logic to online dating. She wants it short and sweet. She does not want a novel or specifically a biography in her mail box.

If you have been investigating, you might have seen some guy’s profiles which are so long, giving every minute detail of their miserable lives. These are long to a point where the person who is reading this might fall asleep on the keyboard. Long profiles are BORING! The intention of the pour soul is to impress the women so he can find the perfect match for him. But it definitely works the other way around.

If you are a novelist it means you are burying the interesting facts of your life beneath pile of rubbish. If she is bored to read your profile then your chances will evaporate.

Remember now, she have lots of mails coming in and you don’t want her to move to the next mail because she is bored with your mail. Rule of thumb is keep it simple. Make sure your mail is two or three normal sized paragraphs at most. And most important of all is that it should fit on one screen. In any kind of sales, there is a saying that goes “leave them wanting more”. That’s the goal here; just enough to pique the interest but not so much as to get boring. Remember you are trying to sell yourself here.
