...that you look at first in a profile which then make you decide to read more or move on?
This could be useful and informative for all of us. May not be anything obvious either and might be something that can be changed which helps our own profiles too.
For me it's. ..
1. Can they accommodate.
2 Do they smoke. |

The pics is the makes up 50% of my decision, need to know if I'm attracted to them
The bio makes up the rest, if it's full of "don't do this" and "won't do that" I'll just leave them alone, who needs that kind negativity in their life
The warning to Sydney university can also trump all of the above |

Mostly I watch what they say first. Do they sound like the sort of person I could spend time with?
On to the profile I'd go with
1. They want to engage with me on an intellectual level as well as physical
2. Intensity - I'm all about the mysterious and often darker side of a person. This intrigues me a lot |

"Distance
Whether they can accomadate
Dealbreakers for me!

I get that accommodation thing as I've been stung for it on more than 2 occasions. ..but distance. One can travel quite a way to meet someone. That's maybe for another post later. |

Various bits about themselves yadda yadda then...
"I'm looking for a connection of minds" or "I want to get to know someone on an intellectual level"
You get the gist. Any variants of the above.
Btw have you done this thread just to get tips for your own? |

"I look for a face pic and then height. Doesn't mean I don't look at the rest but those are the first two "
Be interested to know how many refuse to show face pics.... i will now but only if the other who asks shows theirs first. That more often not ends the conversation I've found so far though. Most women won't show their face first in my experience. |

Not when you have limited availability. I prefer to spend less time in my car and more time in the boudoir |

Usually there had to be done trigger for me to go and look at a profile forum post or status post or just someone see wandering around the forums...
Then first usually the avatar and profile and if it captures my imagination and I think there may be some connection
Then the pictures...
Then I just bottle it and go back to the man cave because they are out of my league.. |

I appreciate that...but they may be willing to travel to meet you nearby. That's how I'd see a easy way around that. .. still leaves more options then for you. Maybe you don't need more though. |

See I would agree with you on that however we have some "don'ts" on ours for the simple reason that people seem to ignore what you say. So I've had to put some "donts" in to make it clear as day... |

I get that a lot but I don't do hotels because for me it doesn't work as a regular thing. |

This I get 100% and have bottled it loads of times... maybe daily. I keep my 'visual on' look...if they don't show an interest then I know they wouldn't reply either. I'd say there are hundreds of us men like that too...maybe thousands. |

Some is fine as long as there is a nice balance between positives and negatives. If it's just a page of donts and wonts then I'm not interested . If a bio is fully of negativity (and sometimes comes across as aggressive) then I assume the person behind the profile is as well |

"And they don't expect. U to drop everything just cause they want to shag there and then "
I'm sure some can be persuasive enough though. Could be fun thinking about it. |
