Okay fellas,,, just for discusion purposes,,, here's a profile of a guy I found on POF, Plenty of fish. Dude,,, if you are here,,, please excuse.

Anyways, this cat has more friends than any guy or girl I ever saw. He's got over 200. Shit,,, strippers in LA don't even get that.

Two things I notice on his profile. First,, it's super long. Seems to break the rules. But he's showing some game by saying clearly "I don't give a shit".

Next thing I noticed. His profile has a ton of imagery. It's almost like reading a movie script or a book. Lot's a visualization and not so much "description.

A little background on him. He's a good looking guy and has some nice picks. But he's not that good looking. I think the words sell.

Anyways,,, I'm just gonna throw it out there. Let the Pirahna feed!

You know it's funny as I feel we have lost a lot of what used to be considered important in life. I believe my word and my honor still mean a lot to me. And I will not compromise either for anything on this earth. In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle that inner spirit. It is never too late to live and always too early to die!

Warning! Danger, Danger! This is a very long profile. If you have a heart condition, suffer from asthma, you lack in patience, or you are stuck in a burning building, you should probably skip this one! (long sigh)

For gawds sakes, if a gal is bi-polar, on meds for depression, seeing a shrink, (or just plain crazy as a loon) her lunatic axe murderer ex-husband just escaped from prison. Or she just escaped from prison! And yes, I will check for dirt under your fingernails as signs you just tunneled your way out. So at least wash your D A M N hands girl ! Or she dated some bank robber boy, and about that robber boy thing, (rolls eyes) ya know that doesn't mean I don't Love ya Gina! You know I do!

Now that gal, looks at my profile, and pushes her chair away from the PC, jumps up, knocking her beer off the desk. Covers her mouth with one hand, and points at the PC and screams out loud, MOMMA! THAT'S HIM! WAHOO! THAT'S MY MAN!

This is getting crazy! Darlin these are no longer Plentyoffish dates. (wink) They have now become Plentyoffish encounters! I swear... I mean, ya gotta know I am dieing laughing as I write this but I am getting skeered!

I have a gal buddy back in Philly from POF named Andee, She's a sweetie, and I told her about my latest one on here. And she said "Uhhh... You do know what your problem is right Cowboy? "You have no warning lights boy"! Nothing that tells you to pull over to the side of the road ! You can't hear the voices in your head yelling "DANGER WILL ROBINSON, DANGER DANGER!" Andee and me are just "buddies" but she is threatening to fly here from Philly and rollup a newspaper, spank my butt, and make me sleep in the garage if I don't straighten up I swear. And I don't even have a garage!

My life is crazy. My close friends are probably 1-pill outside an institution, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I love them all.

I'm all contradictions. I'm probably the bad boy your momma tried to warn you about, and the good husband/father you always dreamed of.

The ornery barefoot boy next door you always wanted to sneak down to the creek and go smooching with when momma wasn't looking. A southern gentlemen that still opens doors and pulls out chairs. I still say "Yes Ma'am" and "No Sir". My momma raised me right. I live in mortal fear, to this day, that my tiny 4'10" mom will come up out of the grave and beat my skinny butt with a ping-pong paddle if I do not open a door for a lady.

Come hold my hand on this journey we call life.

Always remember this, "You can't change the direction of the winds in your life, but you can adjust the sails to point ya in the direction you want to go".

Life is too short for drama & petty things. So laugh hard, love truly and forgive quickly. Live Life to the Fullest..... While You Still Can

xxxx's & oooo's

Cowboy

P.S. Crap! Lets try this One more time. (rolls eyes) I keep having gals ask what I am searching for?

For the love of gawd! Come on now! This isn't as hard as y'all are making this. We are all looking for the same thing. (rolls eyes, OK lets roll those eyes twice for extra effect) I mean really now ladies. Let's try and cut through the B.S. here for just a minute OK? I was gonna say to close your eyes and read the next section but that won't work will it? You would be lost trying to read with your eyes closed! So I guess I'll have to read it for ya. Listen up now! follow along! Can you hear me now? Turn up your speakers!

Have you ever snuck out ten minutes early from work? Drove home at illegal speeds? To skid into the driveway of your house sideways like a Nascar driver, tires a squealing. Knowing that your "better half" was pacing back and forth peeking out of that front window, every 10 seconds. Waiting to hear the sound of your car finally hit that driveway.

Because they can't wait to be in your arms again! They waited all day to feel your arms embrace them. To just wrap their legs around you in a kiss that never ends.(long sigh) Now thats what I search for!

Now if you really think you can curl my toes in cowboy boots on the first kiss, then you need to drop me a line here sweetheart. (wink)

I need someone with a backyard so I can cook. I'll bring the food and the grill. You gotta bring the crazy friends. I swear finding a good gal these days is harder then nailing jelly to a tree.

I am very sorry to announce that I will no longer be responding to profiles without pictures. Not only because I'm shallow, but I also wanna make sure I've not seen your mug shots on Americas Most Wanted.

Now with so many of you gals complaining about the very long profile I am now offering prizes to all those that have managed to read all the way to the bottom without napping.

Write me and just tell me you want to collect your prize. (long sigh)

Ok Ok Ok ! Enough already! I am only going to say this one time. So let me make this very very clear. Listen up! In response to multiple people that have now asked the same exact question (you guys are very sick puppies btw) Look I am really really sorry but, there are no cash prizes OK? So puhleeeez just quit asking for cash OK? I swear, the things a guy has to do on here to get a date anymore.

And way too many of you gals have asked if I have a friggin web cam? Whats up with that nonsense anyway? Ok well the answer is "Yes", but I need a valid credit card authorization before I turn it on. (wink) Geez and I thought I was a perv? Skeered to even imagine what you're going to ask for next! You gals make me blush over some of the prizes you've requested!

Look I am really am 5'9" barefoot and 140 lbs nekid. And no you are not getting to weigh me nekid for your prize! (rolls eyes) OMG what is wrong with you ladies? And I am using the term "ladies" very loosely here.

BTW, all spelling errors are made intentionally for verification purposes, so that you know this text was really written by me!

Can't say what the trick is here, but I find the profile rather interesting to read, captivating to a point.

As you said, it flows well, even though he jumps from his friend in philly to webcams and asthamatic girls. Tbf, I think most people WILL read it, even though its very long.

I never wanted to write long profiles, only because I thought that no one would consider it worthy of reading it. The reality of the matter is that people actually would read something interesting than leaving everything to mystery. And tbf, this guy still leaves a lot to mystery since he doesnt go in depth about his 'virtues'. Just tintilates readers with the fact that he is a paradox.

Everybody loves a paradox.

That guy has serious talent. Its quite inspiring. I used to blog on adult friendfinder. thats where all the interesting people are on that site. It was quite clear that the most popular bloggers there had very distinctive writing styles. now lets all go away and try and find our own distinctive voices.

You mean he was "favorited" by 200 people? Give us the link! I wanna see what this guy looks like.

Longer profiles probably give the impression of "this person is serious. " I've never tried it, so I don't know. Interesting though.

Check it out. I only present it as an item of interest. This guy seems to know what he's doing.

That's crazy though. Maybe I'll write a 1000 word ramble and see if things pick up... hahaha

I think it's the total package he presents. First off. The guy looks good for two reasons. He's a good looking guy, but add to that, he actually added the pictures that not only show his good side but to also deliver the message about his "theme". He's working that cowboy angle effectively.

My point being,, I think most of us spend a lot of time working on the perfect profile Bio. That's obviously very important. But what I'm learning from this guy, and we all already knew this, that women are very visual too. Pictures sell, big time.

Add to that, most of uss, for our pictures, just scan our computer for any crap available. Maybe it would be a better idea to actually take all new pictures, specifically for the profile. Stage them. Marketing.

I think It's a huge opportunity lost. Pictures sell so much better than words. Especially if you are pumping and dumping form letters. Let the pictures blow them away. Use the same creativity, witt and intellect we use on the profile, on the pictures.

How about a picture with a group of nuns? 4 Guys trying to fly one kite. Photoshop your picture in with someone you admire. Gahndi? Britany? Whatever is gonna work and help promote your theme.

Take some pictures that will solicit interest, comments and questions...

Anyways,,, yeah, it's a lot of work. It's like training a dog, it takes time and patience. But once the dog is trained, it's trained. The good part, with this dog, once he's trained, instead of fetching the paper, this dog will actually fetch pussy.

Holly shit that is one long ass profile. I never seen a guys profile on POF that freaking long. That profile even beats the longest girl profiles I have ran into. But 200 favs is a lot for a guy on POF.

I am not going to bother reading the guys profile, but I will say a couple of things. The guy is decent looking and has a Chuck Norris thing going on. He also on the low end of the "preferred" height range for girls. But the looks and the profile help that "flaw". The guy is also in his late 40's where girls generally not looking for flings and/or casual dating.

Well cosider this. And I don't know the answer. If these women are looking for an older guy for a serious relationship,,, why would they add a guy that's shown as a favorite for over 200 woman?

I would presume the higher that number gets, the more it is to turn the ladies off.

I mean,,, would you invest a lot of time is girl who had 200 people listing her as a favorite?

Maybe, maybe not. But it would get you thinking.

I that is your answer. The favorite thing on POF will add some social proof. How much that really depends on the person. And in some cases a high number of favorites will turn people off. But I very rarely see guys really over 200 favorites. Most girls average 200 with some going well into 1,000's.

My investment in any girl depends on how interested I am in her. As well as what I think may become of the relationship. If its a one way street I am going to invest less time. But if its a two way street then I am going to invest more time. Its really a stock investment thing to me really.
