So, this whole internet dating is pretty new to me and I may not totally understand how it works but I need some help. I have made a profile, I have sent out some pretty genuine messages, the girls look at my profile but I never get any responses. I was wondering if there is something on my profile that is scaring girls off or if there is certain stuff I left out of my profile that is scaring girls off? Brutal honesty is appreciated, don't worry I'm a big boy, I can handle it.

I feel your pain. Well, I used to. I've been there, I know what it feels like to put yourself out there with a profile. Not knowing what to say, how to say it, should you say it, and then get no response. I was in the same position you were in but I was worse, I had two profiles on two different sites not getting any results. Through much studying and testing (and mistakes) I finally created a winning profile on a different site. It was so effective I couldn't keep up with the responses, (be careful what you wish for). I experienced the difficulty of finding effective dating advice for a Christian, but I made it through. I'm blessed by my success and now I want to give back, that's why I'm here.



I checked your profile and noticed a few things, I'll point those out and tell you what to do instead. Ready?



Your profile needs to have a strong headline and first sentence , but you start yours off by saying you're not sure. You have to project that confidence, especially in the first few sentences. You have to get them interested enough to want to keep reading, most people only read the first few lines of the tons of profiles they see.



You always want to show, don't tell things. Describe how you loved white water rafting so much, you decided to become a guide.



Display your passion in everything. Paint the picture of your life as an adventure she'd want to join. If you don't have any fun or adventurous stories to tell, go out and do some things. Talk about yourself and the things you do in a positive light.



Describe your perfect first date. Tell her about this quaint little coffee shop that has the most amazing hot chocolate, with chocolate that's imported from Belgium. Describe how it's topped with whipped cream, shaped in a heart, with the perfect amount of chocolate shavings. Let her know you discovered this place while you were out walking with your niece and the owner thought she was so adorable she had to have a free cup! Get it? I knew you would. Give her a glimpse into your world.



Picture time. Gotta lose the shirtless pics. The number one complaint I hear from women is guys posting/sending pics with shirts missing, sometimes other clothes too. Your buddy & action pics are good, keep those. Also, you need to change your primary picture. It's okay, but it's not the most flattering. Remember, we're going for the instant attention grab.



You're off to a good start, just add a little polish and you'll have much more success.



Good luck
