Okay, something that I have wondered about when it comes to online matchmaking. You see a profile, the person's words are generally the same as every other profile you have read...'blah, blah, blah...honest, sincere...blah, blah, blah...want to find my soul mate...blah, blah, blah...no games or liars...blah, blah, blah!'

So what attracts you to pick this one over that one? What makes this profile stand out from the rest? Why do you ignore some, toy with others, but choose one from a sea of many?

The age of the lady; the picture; whether she smokes or not; then the words on the profile.

For me... it's normally when they say they have a sense of humour, or a happy disposition.... I prefer ladies that want to laugh, can have fun, but still be serious when the Excrement hits the air conditioning.

Being able to laugh is on of the best tonics in any situation !

For me, I prefer it when men actually show their sense of humour already in their profile. Promises that they have it mean nothing to me. "I'm from Missouri, so you've got to SHOW ME!" professor

But, yes, sometimes there's so little text and it all falls into one of the vague "blah blah blah" categories that it's impossible to pick - so I close the tab and explore the next profile!

Kind of like going shopping..sometimes you have a list in hand of what you need and sometimes you just go in because you are hungry for something.
A true smile, the kind you can see right up to the eyes, and a sincere sense of humour. And, I know this is petty, but spelling counts for me. roll eyes

Ok. to answer more seriously. I do look for guys that have pets or are animal lovers. Sense of Humour is also a requirement. I don't like reading a novel but I don't like the short..."what ever you wanna know just email me" either. I like a nice in between. I also like it when you read the profile you sounds like the person and not a copy and paste job from another profile.

Hi Jeepy
That's too bad that I don't have a cute dog.
How do you feel about handsome dogs ? tongue

TOTALLY agree! And, I would add, that I don't reply to messages that are copied and pasted from the original profile.
So if i am understanding correctly
1. copy paste is bad
2. animals in pic are good
3. don't say it...show it.
4. its the habits (i.e. smoking, drinking...)
