Are there templates? I do okay on plentyoffish but I think I could do better if I had a better profile. Thanks.

do you have anything to begin with? there is no universal profile. a few examples have been posted on the forum, but you would need to adjust the ideas to your personality and to who you are. otherwise, you will end up being a phony when transitioning to real life.

This is my profile. Sometimes I totally change it up but I've stuck with this for like a week.


12:13am I am in a very sarcastic mood, watch out.

Hi! I'm Aaron (as you can see from my profile name:).
I go to university and I have a long plan so I'm not done or almost done. I like doing many active things but mainly if they are outside and I'm a big fan of nature and animals. I enjoy exercising and anything new, different, or exciting. I have a weakness for video games and computer games. If there's nothing else to do I'll spend an hour or two gaming.

I'm looking to date with the expectation that sometime in the next few months or maybe even longer I'll find a relationship match with someone. Certainly not something you can force or push too hard for. I prefer relationships because I think a good relationship is low maintenance and less expensive than dating. Obviously there are other benefits to a relationship; but there are also benefits to just dating and being single.


* I try to be polite and courteous at all times even when I fail to.

I look for a good personality and usually well adjusted people are somewhat intelligent. Someone who has a heart, knows how to have fun, has a sense of humor and enjoys my sense of humor. Someone who tries to be healthy and exercise. Someone who is nice to animals and treats people with respect. A basic level of respect, because of course respect is earned. Character>personality>healthy appearance. But all three are important.

I like a girl who is close to my height, so 5'4"-5'10". I like curves but I'm not attracted to seriously overweight people, just a fact not a judgement. If you are over 150lbs that is usually overweight for a girl unless you are tall. I also like thin girls but only if you are healthy. I really like pretty eyes and a great smile and laugh. I find those sexy. My standards aren't extremely high so don't assume you don't meet them. Sometimes girls who a guy may shallowly consider to be a "7" on a scale of one-ten I consider an 8 due to my own preferences.

* I'll try to put up more photos soon but I don't have a smart phone. :)

I do not like this part. Makes pretty much no sense. And, a relationship is higher maintenance than casual dating. As for expensive, you don't wanna look like a cheap guy who will stop paying for dinner after he's had his way. if you find a good girl who will gladly go dutch or similar, kudos to you. but screen for that IRL not on the profile.
you are looking for a special person to share special moments with, and maybe more. if you want an LTR, use the actual dates to screen for girls who are GF-material.

your standards are low? bad! it means you are desperate and will fuck anything with a hole in there.
and no need to disclose the HB 10-scale. you have a preference for petite girls, leave it at that. say what you want personality-wise. you can easily screen fatties away by not opening them, or ignoring them if they open you. writing that you have a thing against fatties is going to backfire, esp. since most girls see themselves as overweight, no matter what.

In general, I think you are trying to do too much screening via your profile. It would work if you were filling in boxes and the computer was selecting good matches. It fails if you have girls read at your profile. You want to be funny, smart, show an amazing life-style, and have the girls feel that entering your life is the best choice they can do. not write a grocery-shop list "I want this, I want that. No pickles."

Thanks. I see where you are coming from on your advice and I changed the profile.

*I want to perfect my profile on pof before making an okcupid profile. By spamming copy/paste messages I think I've ruined my reputation with most of the local pof girls. Thankfully there is a new crop of girls every few months.

Once I'm happy with my pof profile I'll transfer it over to OKcupid and attack the online dating thing a little slower and more precisely.

keep in mind that POF and OkCupid have different population.. POF is more aimed at hookups&casual-dating, whereas OkCupid is more of "relationship seeking". not saying you can't get laid on OkCupid or you can't find the woman of your life on POF - but in general that's the way it is.

well then I'm on the wrong site. Awesome. At least pof was my practice for okcupid.

all is good as long as you get girls. POF never worked for me. once I got the hang of it, I got girls out of OkCupid like there was no tomorrow :wink:

Girls get so many messages on POF that they typically will not remember you. Just change your profile pics every couple months and dont use the same openers all the time and you will be fine to resend to the same girls.
