Dr. Dato’s Brief:

The title of this article is not fitting to the content of this article. It should be more like “How to create the perfect profile to attract the must-have men out there”. Nevertheless, the article does make several good points especially to people who want to improve their chances in the online dating world.

It focuses initially on the female profiles where the needs of a woman may come often come across differently than the online profile suggests. The writer recommends to be honest and use creative ways to express yourself instead of rambling on about what you want in the other partner. For example, talk about action items such as “planning a bicycle trip, writing a book and redecorating my living room.” Also, “I’m a good friend and a good listener and right now I have a friend going out of town and I’m dog-sitting for her poodle,” Action items are what men usually look for and if woman want a man who is wealthy and ambitious, they should reflect some of that in their nature.

For men, an ideal profile would be more verbiage since women like to know that the man has more substance.

Ironically, the message seems to be that women should write more bullet points whereas men should put more verbiage against their profile.

writing online dating profiles can be different for men and women
