Since I have been on this site I have always wondered this question and thought a few more opinions would be great.

I ALWAYS read the profile from top to bottom... of course I look at the pics too but I don't not view a profile because there is no pic - I send them a flower and request a pic (no responses to that as of yet though)!

I always read the profile...and not just of the men who's picture caught my eye...but especially those of posters here on the forum...

I happen to think that either the men messaging me are quite blind or just don't read the profile at all....rolling eyes

I always read the profile, whether there's a photo or Not. I'll ask for one as I get to know someone for the simple reason that they know what I look like, so I feel at a slight disadvantage. But yes....the profile is always read by me.

I was going to ask the men the same thing- actually when they send me a wow I'm interested flower or an email detailing how they could fall in love with me cause I'm just what they're looking for, I do say things like Wow, you must have really read my profile! drives me crazy that people don't bother to read what we struggle to write to attract 'the one'. At least I know Joel read mine...

LOL...Renee it seems to me i have more "views" now than i did when i did not have a profile pic showing me with someone else...

The ones that message me with their email and comments such as "wow i'd really like to get to know you"...I know for a fact did not read my profile...and as i said must be quite blind because my profile pics definitely show me with someone...

And yes Clay did read my profile...as did I read his...its what took us almost a year before we actually decided to "make a move"...laugh

I always read the profiles ... I check out the pics first, but I'll still read the profile .. There is a lot more to someone than simply what they look like .. I find attraction -for myself personally- is very much about the interaction between us .. whether we "click" or not ..intelligence, passion for life etc.. if those are present, I generally find him very attractive ..

So now that I've gone around the pond and down the path ... Yes I read profiles :)

I sometimes read profiles - I have observed on here that what is presented to you - picture or profile - is not always accurate. A case in point had something to do with 'ice'....nuff said. While profiles can come in helpful - forums might give a little more insight as you can find out a little more about someone by how they respond to things. That having been said - if a person is out to jerk others around the ruse may well continue in forums until someone calls them on it. The last time I was on here I had a lot more information on the profile - it seemed that very few read it or did read it but paid little attention - so this time I didn't put much info on there and encourage people to ask. Who's to say what the right way is.

I'll be honest. I will read profiles if something strikes me about the 'tag line' or the image. I don't read everyone's just as I am people don't read mine because there is nothing that interests them about the "first impression".

I know my personality / image/ character will only appeal to a very small percentage of guys - I have no issues with that. Having been married once and involved in 2 long term relationships before that I'm looking for a very specific person - maybe I will never find them, and maybe I will.

I like to read the profiles; often they're more interesting than the pictures. I wonder if mine gets read, because I more often than not get messages from men who smoke. dunno
