• Your Christian Online Dating Profile-- Is It Good or Great?

    My good friend Joan came to me last month very discouraged after attempting three different Christian dating sites. Although she had a number of views and a number of contacts, she simply was not getting much interest. This puzzled me, because she is truly fantastic looking, smart, a strong Christian, and has a successful profession. How could males NOT be interested in someone like Joan? I asked her to reveal me her profiles, and after modifying them and utilizing some of the secrets to a fantastic dating profile, she had more contacts and interest than she might handle.

     

    Do YOU need help getting more online dating leads? Does your online profile need to be revamped? Here are a couple of pointers to make your profile not just excellent, but fantastic!

     

    1. Post images. There is absolutely nothing even worse than clicking somebody's profile and not knowing what they appear like. It truly is unfair to either celebration. And when you do publish images, make them reasonable. Clearly, not photos of you when you initially get up in the early morning, however not "modified" glamour shots either. Simply great pictures of you looking your finest.

     

    2. Be yourself-- be enjoyable! When you describe yourself, keep away from the basic boring "young woman looking for friendship, and possibly more". Actually inform individuals who you are. If you're a morning coffee individual, tell them about your Starbucks yearnings. If you like to jog, describe among your afternoon goes through the park. If you like dealing with kids, describe your obligations in your children's ministry at church. If you like to write poetry, post among your shorter poems. Simply put, let your personality shine through.

     

    3. Don't terrify potential interested parties with your profile. Yes, marital relationship can be your supreme goal, however you do not have to state: "want to meet male for immediate marriage relationship." Or you might love children and desire them, and it's fine to suggest that in your profile. But you might not wish to say "man seeking young woman to keep home and have his children-- ideally much of them." Granted, these are exaggerations, however you get the point! Be truthful, but not scary!
