5. As for photos on your profile, they MUST be clear, up close, and recent. Women need to see your eyes, so it's really important that you are not wearing sunglasses in most (if not all) of your photos.
It is also essential that you choose pictures that show your face and your body, so women can see what you look like overall.
Your pictures are part of what makes or can ruin a good profile. Your pictures should also help to create a feeling of emotion inside a woman.
Don't put up pictures on your profile of you and your buddies drinking or any picture where you can't see your eyes.
Stay away from pictures of you and your buddies drinking. Women are not looking to hang out with a frat boy. They don't want to hang out every Friday night in a bar sucking down shots with you and your buddies.
Instead, why not put up a picture of you volunteering, or how about a funny picture of you cooking for a dinner party?
Put up pictures that show that you have interests in activities other than alcohol consumption. A woman wants to know you are fun and social, but she also wants to be able to picture having a good time with you.
Choosing a picture of you biking in Italy, therefore, meets this desire and will create emotion in women.
Women are not looking for a partner in crime on a bar stool... they are looking for a partner in crime in life. Those drunken pictures will turn women off, not turn them on.
Women want a man... not a manboy. So look through all your pictures and select ones that will paint a picture of who you are as a person. This includes putting up photos of you in different life situations.
For instance, you may put up one picture of you in business attire, one picture of you in play mode, and one picture of you with your dog.
Also, try to include clear photos that show you participating in your favorite activities, such as hiking, biking or playing tennis. Just make sure not to select distance shots showing you at the top of the mountain but in which you are too small to see clearly.
Use only close up shots here so women are able to see YOU.
Your pictures should show women all the different sides of you, and the pictures of you that you put up on your profile should represent who you are at this stage in your life.
So what I suggest is that you have a friend of yours take some new photos of you. If you write a fantastic profile, but your pictures don't match, a woman will be disappointed when she meets you.
6. Be honest in your profile! A lot of men will massage the truth in their profile. The major problem that occurs when men are less than honest occurs after you've gone out on a date with a woman.
She will go back after the date and re-read your profile to see if there are any discrepancies. It's almost like she is looking to see if you're as real as you appear to be.
So make sure everything you write in your profile is totally representative of who you are right now in your life.
Your profile is designed to help women form an opinion about you. Written correctly, your profile will entice her to contact you immediately.
Women re-read profiles over and over again because they want to get to know who you are and they want to get excited about meeting you.
The more you put in your profile that expresses your personality, the easier it is for a woman to decide to email you because she'll have a better idea of what to talk about with you.
If you ever look at the women who have viewed you, you are looking at women who will contact you, email you and who will read your profile over and over again - even after she meets you.
That's why being honest in your profile is so very important.
