My profile name sums me up, however if there's one thing I have to be "not nice" about is the fact you're complaining about lack of success after only two WEEKS on here. I've been on here four MONTHS and only had a little degree of success. You need to be patient OP; this sounds likes classic case of "I'll join FAB and have women falling at my feet and in boxing me left, right and centre in seconds". No. It doesn't work like that.
However, I will stick to what my profile name suggests and dole out some advice, however this will not guarantee success either:
* Your profile is your 'shop window'. You are one of thousands - literally - of single men on here. What would make your profile stand out more and make a woman want to meet you?
* Get plenty of pictures - nice ones - uploaded. How about smiling? Upload some pics of you at your most appealing. Having observed previous threads, I've learned that women tend to like underwear shots, torso shots and bum shots. Suit pics also tend to be good, but don't take my word on that one, although my suit pics increased my _iewings, it hasn't increased my success!
* How is your profile introduction? What does it say about you? What can you offer a woman? And the biggest one - can you accommodate? If not, say why. Otherwise women will assume you are hiding something, or, more specifically, someONE - such as a wife or girlfriend, which a woman is not likely to appreciate.
* Look at other guys profiles to see how they're doing (but not mine, you're not nicking anything off me lol) - if you don't want guys getting the wrong idea, you can browse privately through your "Account settings" so that you don't show up on their profile that you _iewed them.
* Get to a club or social - this will enable you to meet people and show you are a real person which in turn can lead to a verification (that's how I got mine). Often you cannot get a verification without a meet, and you can't get a meet without a verification, so a club or social should enable you to break that vicious circle!
* If you do message someone, make it a decent message with some effort. But read the profile of the person first - you don't want to type a decent message to someone you're not compatible with. When messaging, pick out talking points. Look at some of their photographs - find your favourite and say why! And if you don't receive a reply, remember it isn't rude. The ladies on here get hundreds of messages a day, and will often read your profile before replying, hence why I said you need to stand out. The FAQ section should provide more information.
Anyway, my finger's hurting after all this typing, but I will offer one final piece of advice.....HAVE PATIENCE - people can be on here for months, maybe longer, without a meet! |
