Post subject:  okcupid profile: doing something wrong?
Hey all,

I keep messaging women on this site, and my response rate is, well, abysmal.

I’m not doing any of the “faux pas” things that women say they don’t like: I don’t just message saying, “hey nice pic”. I’ve got a pretty filled-out profile with lots (?) of different interests and no misspelled words. I even got the “you are HOT” email—which apparently not everyone gets.

I’ve gotten almost no responses after 20+ messages sent. I get a pretty good number of unsolicited messages, but they’re almost never from girls I actually want to talk to.

My profile is “flym3_2themoon”. (This site won’t let me paste in the public URL. Gr.)

Any pointers? :?:

Give examples of some messages you are sending to girls on the site!


Peace...

My name’s not Mark; the name has been changed below to protect the innocent.

Sample messages:

========== (to a lawyer who talked about living abroad)
Hey, how’s it going? ;-)

Where did you live abroad?

-Mark
==========


========== (to a girl who loves dogs)
Hi, how are you? I’m Mark.

How was your weekend? What kind of dogs do you have?

-M :)
==========


========== (to a girl who’s doing int’l studies and learned German)
Hey how’s it going?

Did you ever read Mark Twain on learning German? Google if you haven’t … funny, funny stuff. :)

cheers,
-Mark
==========

Basically, you are sending some pretty lame messages and not separating yourself from the other 200+ guys sending the same stuff!

I can safely say that 90%+ of your messages don't even get read (unless you're VERY good looking)! You need to send them something they have not seen before...Ex: It's a good thing you're cute, because that dog will not win you any friends! ;) (Obviously only if her dog is a Mutt or ugly)

The best thing I would suggest is to use some canned material from the forums until you get the idea of Online Social Interation (OSI) I just made that up, it is mine! LMAO

Peace...

The “Visitors” section shows most of the girls I message visiting my profile. Do they just visit anyway even if the message is lame?

as has been said, you want something witty. and a funny profile.
unless you're smoking hot, that's what will trigger the girls to respond.

you can also use opener/profile as screeners to attract factors you are interested in. my canned opener had a slight hint at a possible long-term interest (it talked about getting to know each other at a deeper level), and my profile had funny sexual hints that would hopefully screen low sex-drive girls somewhere else.

I ended up attracting an hard-to-commit extremelyhigh-sex-drive girlfriend :lol:
