Things I've learned from online dating

8:03 pm Sunday, 14th July, 2019

We all start to see patterns in the information coming at us. A few rambles from what I've noticed. If you find these useful, you can use them to make better connections.

First thing I notice is photos. I want to see eyes, face. But not fish, cars, boats, tanks, or motorcycles. Or double chins. When a guy takes a nice photo of himself, it makes a difference. One photo of a face, one in a suit...but I honestly don't get the whole fish thing. LOL

Second thing I look for is profile information. Please, tell me more, more, more. Asking a woman to decide based on a photo is a bit torturous. Our maybe I'm just a high-context person? 

And third thing I look at is interests. I want to know if we are going to have anything to talk about after the second date. I look for words like theatre, directors cut, art, pop-ups, and I avoid words like football (ok, that's just me) and fishing. 

What do you look for when perusing profiles?
