Your personal ad
By Unknown
Once you've selected the site, or sites that seem to fit your
personality, it's time to write your own personal ad. There is
nothing wrong with reading what others have written, giving you a
better idea of what you might want to say.
If you've selected a site that gives you a questionnaire to fill
out, sit down and answer them when you are in a good mood. It's best,
not to do this at work or when the kids are running around the house.
Essay style answers are the hardest to write when trying to
describe yourself. However, they are the best way to find common
ground and the number one way to start an introduction.
Always fill out every question whether it's honest, silly or a
question of *why did they even ask this stupid thing? * They put these
in just to see who would answer them.
GOOD EXAMPLE: (For a guy, but can be changed to a lady? s)
These are a few of my favorite things . . . Warm summer nights,
seductive sunsets, sparkling champagne . . . Smooth jazz, giving fresh
flowers, candlelight dinners, crackling fires. I love traveling, art,
the theater, animals, sun, fun, water, private beaches, boating,
fishing, skiing and golfing. Touring the Napa Valley wine country. The
museums, restaurants and art galleries in San Francisco.
I am a 35-year-old professional, intelligent good looking (you be
the judge) man with a sense of humor (can be sarcastic also). I am
confident and successful. I am very sociable and enjoy groups of
interesting people as well as intimate conversations. I like
spontaneous, fun people who enjoy life as much as I do. I am
affectionate and caring, passionate and sensual. I love to cuddle and
kiss for hours (foreplay is fabulous!). I am gentle and calm, but also
have a wild side ;) I am secure with whom I am, where I am in my life
and would like to find a Real Lady to enjoy experiencing new things
and meeting new people.
I enjoy taking the time to get to know someone but hate the games
some people play . . . I can play *other* games though.
Are you an exceptional Lady, 32-42 who is intelligent, attractive,
spontaneous, affectionate, considerate, successful, fun, outgoing,
romantic and sensual? Are you confident of who you are but don't take
everything too seriously? Do you like to have a good time? Good laugh?
Enjoy life?
I'd love to find a woman who can make me laugh, think and feel.
Someone who is my equal emotionally, intellectually, physically and
sexually...
Last but. Not least . . . I want to love being with her.
GOOD EXAMPLE: (for a lady, but can be changed to a guy? s)
HELLO-LOOKS AND SMARTS! I'm an attractive, intelligent and
ambitious woman. I work for the I.R.S. so if you think about it in a
comical way, I have the honor of dealing with a lot of people (like
you) who just might be audited next week! LOL!! Joking . . . Did I
mention that I like to find comedy where I can?
I'm the girl who will let you open your door, get in and reach over
to unlock your door . .. EVERY TIME! A real woman respects herself and
the man she is keeping company with. Hey ladies . . . Get a clue! If
you respect a man's decision, he'll respect your opinion. If you honor
him in public, he'll turn into a teddy bear behind closed doors.
To the gentlemen, here's my advice . . . find a girl who knows how
to TALK when she's mad.
I enjoy the company of attractive, ambitious and intelligent
gentlemen. By the way, I like men who are taller than me because heels
are a must in my wardrobe.
Hope to hear from you soon!
BAD EXAMPLE:
Hi! I am an attractive, intelligent, moral and considerate person
who enjoys outdoor as well as indoor activities. I try not to limit
myself. You can find me camping, reading, or dancing (line dancing and
top 40's). If your interests are the same or similar, contact me! Race
is unimportant. Will only respond if you have a picture to send!
NOTE: You are one of many thousands of users and you have to
reach out to let them know you are on-line. Also the more time you
spend on-line the more people will browse you and possibly E-mail you.
Invest the time in searching out others and your time here will be
very fruitful! IF YOU DON'T SPEND TIME LOOKING FOR OTHERS AND
E-MAILING LETTERS, YOU WILL NOT HAVE MANY E- MAILS WAITING FOR YOU!
If you choose a site where you have to create a profile:
DO:
* Describe yourself and type of relationship you are looking for.
* Think about what makes you unique or special. Interests?
Experiences?
Goals? Hobbies? Kids? Job? Animals?
*Avoid generalizations. Let your answers show your personality. Use
humor in your answers or profiles.
* Be honest! (What you really want) lol!
* Try to infuse your profile with your own personality. Write as if
you were writing to a friend that wants to know you better.
* Creativity . . . Write your profile in the form of a poem, One
line title, or your own questions and answers for others to read.
* State your true age in the section where you describe yourself in
your own words, or where they ask your age. It's O.K. to add how young
you actually feel! Make sure to put in the age range you are looking
for.
DON'T
Don't use your office or personal E-mail that was given to you by
your provider. Some sites have E-mail addresses right there so you
won't have to worry about that.
It is recommended that for the sites that require you to provide an
E-mail address, go out and get a free E-mail address for each site you
register on. This way you can keep track of the responses.
When creating your profile, don't make a long list of
characteristics you are looking for in another, without saying much
about yourself. Don't *overdo*, or be to *picky*
EXAMPLE: Names like: HotBabe, and anything ending with *69*
will undoubtedly get plenty of attention . . . but not necessarily for
the good.
