| Post subject: | POF tips I've picked up along the way |
-Don't limit yourself to girls with photos; a lot of HB8s, 9s, and 10s will hide their photos because they get inundated by too many guys and the novelty of getting all this attention wears-off fast, they've been msg'd by someone who creeped them out so for their own safety hide their pic, don't want friends, family, or co-workers to see they're on POF looking for a date, or they simply just may be more selective and might actually act as the pursue msging guys they are attracted to. Whatever the case may be, it's always a good idea to search for profile users without any photos - they will see you were creeping their page and some of them WILL actually msg you. -Update your content often; nothing worse than a stale looking page. Have a bunch of headlines you can rotate through, update your About Me section tweaking it, adding DHVs, adding some humor, whatever just make sure it's always a work in progress. On a side note, I think the pof algorithm is designed to bump your profile whenever any changes have been made to it, however I'm not certain if this is any longer the case. -when messaging someone, keep things really short initially; a lot of guys send girls entire novels about themselves on the initial contact. This screams of being needy, don't do it. -be mindful of the TIME you are messaging the girl; no, nothing to do with whether she's on the rag or not, but whether she is actually online. Girls get, on average, 100x more than guys on pof. If she's getting dozens of messages a day yours is probably sandwiched beneath the 10th and 12th (for example), and she may not likely even see it, particularly if she doesn't log on for a day or 2. You can either msg her again at some point, or wait until you see she'll notice so long as she's not too busy responding to others -don't let the msging drag back and forth too long; the communication will slowly dwindle into chat oblivion and she'll lose interest and you'll find yourself freaked out, coming here looking for canned material to re-engage her. Just be cool, number close and take this to some texting and then a phone call to set up a meeting/date. -if she says something that unsettles you in any way, don't respond right away; remember this is the typed text and it's easy to misconstrue what's been said. It could also just be a shit test of sorts so it's better to let yourself be in a chill place before you respond. -it's not always a good idea to msg the person every time you see them online; some days you just feel like sh*t, maybe your dog died, your game doesn't feel tight, whatever...if you aren't feeling confidant in yourself it could bleed into the conversation and you may be kicking yourself later for some stupid shit you said to her. If I'm in this mood I'll just set my profile to invisible (sometimes I like the browse profiles without feeling any obligation to contact a girl I've been talking with) so it looks as though I'm not even online. Plus if the girl sees you aren't on pof all the time, it may in itself serve as a DHV as you do have a life outside of the online dating world (you should anyway). -if a girl msgs you out of the blue with some gripe about your profile, it's her problem, not yours. Often these girls are super easy to win over because if you're jocular in a good-natured way she may think "Hmmm, he's not really how I pegged him out to be from his profile" and feel intrigued to continue you talking to you - weirder things HAVE happened on pof. Above all else, always look to find the advantage in a situation and you dramatically limit the chance of failure. Feel free to add to this list |
