Hi all.
Not been on here long.
But i could do with some advice on messages. I never know what to write to grab someones attention. For me actions speak louder than words and sick of writing the cliche messages.
Any tips? |

Don't write cliche filled messages then.
Keep it simple.
Keep if relatively brief.
Be humorous,
Don't be cocky, but give the recipient a reason to want to meet you over the others.
Reference her profile, show you've bothered to read it and how you feel you match her requirements.
Send a face pic from the off, no point getting to know someone, getting along well, only to discover one of you doesn't fancy the other. |

I'm sorry OP, I don't know what those things called messages are.
But it is good advice to read profiles and write a message to them based on that. And don't feel the need to send a cock picture either in the first message |

"most people check your profile before even looking at the message... so I'd maybe put on some nice pics? and by nice I don't mean a cock pic..."
Thanks, guess i should put some public pics, but like to stay private. Lol |

Message recipients typically read the sender's profile to check compatibility, so the profile and message are important.
There are lots of help threads that should give you feedback and direction.
Pick things up from the people you're mailing, so you personalise it. Reflect more about yourself, so they get a flavour of you.
You need to stand out from the rest of the competing single men in your profile and messages - selling you.
Are you only looking for last minute meets? Reading about you, it suggests you are. Clarify this there, as many will want advance planning, having a social meet first too.
My biggest tip for you is to sell yourself well and to be specific and not vague - anyone who is vague here will get lost amongst the thousands of others, leaving prospects no clearer on what someone is all about. |

"Yeah i get that, but some profiles are very vague. I guess a pic more or less grabs the attention? "
Why would you want to message someone with a vague profile? Why would that interest you? If you can't think of something to say then you probably shouldn't bother. When I message guys it's because they have piqued my interest and I feel the need to tell them. |

I always check out a profile first after getting a message, and if there's no public pictures and a profile full of clichés then I just delete the message.
Your school report would say "must do better"
Good luck

For me I cant stand a long detailed message and definitely not what you'd do to me or cock pics !
This is MY ideal message ... my personal view obviously ----
Hi,
Ive read your profile and you look lovely - I especially like the pic with your red jacket and shoes. Looks lovely against your black hair. ( shows looked at all pics as thats the bottom one )
Im within your age range and think I match your requirements and more than happy to meet at Eureka ( he read the profile !)
Ive attached face pics and hope to hear from you ( face pics only as I requested )
Hope this helps xx |
