I plan on either signing up for match tonight, or sunday. Im busy during the night the rest of the week and cant sign up at work...but i like the early results you guys are posting! Hey bankerguy, if i sent you a couple of pics would you mind photoshopping? i dont know how to do it
Do you just mean crop them properly or do you actually want them touched up?
Hey boys....I am just cropping. IF you was ugly before, you will still be ugly after.It will just be more of your ugliness but more centered.I'm a banker...not a miracle worker.
:D I meant I could touch up a blemish or acne, red eye, something simple. Send em over ditka. PM me if you want me to crop them for you.

Bankerguy, I too am fairly recently separated (January) and have been holding off until my divorce is final, which it will be in Aug or Sept because of some alimony issues..........are you still having a pretty easy time even though "technically" you're still married? Maybe I should go ahead and take the plunge instead of waiting. Enquiring minds want to know................
I'm not officially divorced yet either (will be final 7/1... Independence Day comes a little early this year). I'm not sure these girls need to know that though... :unsure:
sure they do! Would you want to know if you were dating a women who was not divorced? And to take it to the next step, what if one of these women you want to see long term, and she finds out that the first time you met was based on a lie ( her thinking you are truly single ) I say tell her that your divorce will be final on 7/1, more times than not, i'd say they would understand....if she doesn't, she isn't worth it then.
:shrug:I don't know about these other guys, but in the single/divorced/separated drop-down... I'm selecting divorced every time. It's my understanding that "separated" is a nonstarter for too many women. A girl I've gone out with a couple times knows what's going on, but some girl I'm chatting with doesn't necessarily need to know everything (no different than a random chick in a bar). I don't see what good can come from advertising to the online community that I'm still married. Turning off a good portion of the prospects - the vast majority of whom I wouldn't actually see until after divorce (if ever) anyway - just doesn't sound smart.

I am honest about my status. Most appreciate the honesty, I actually find that this helps me (Admitting something negative about yourself and being okay with it). Not sure what is so bad about being separated. Most of the ladies who do message me comment about the "honesty" in my profile. Seems to get me "bonus points". I am sure some pass me by......I am okay with that.

Never ask "What do you want in a guy?" because women don't really know what attracts them.
 
WOZ,

I messed with your pic that you sent me on photoshop and I think I was able to make some improvements over the original.
Do you really think that's fair to the ladies, Bankerguy?
Do you want this thread to get locked? Moron.
how is that pic going to get the thread locked? :fishing:
awesome picture :bye:
damn it, i check out the last page of the thread and this is this first thing i see. now i need to read 9 pages to find how the hell this started. at least i can pretend to be busy the rest of the afternoon. woz - ever notice how all the threads you start end up in a multi page bashing thread (i am assuming youre being bashed after seeing this pic - which is great by the way :P )

because i was told you're not allowed to post unwanted pictures of people on here... this same pic got another thread closed
 
Careful buddy. You don't want to cast your net too wide. You also might want to refine your emailing skills a bit before blowing through your entire cache of women. If what you're doing isn't working, you might need to tweak for better results.For instance, the email you sent last night (posted above) was a good one EXCEPT, some might read it as you were only looking for a serious relationship. The money move with the Match chicks is to let them know you're ready for a relationship (as you did above) but that you're not going to force it. You're ready to take whatever comes your way as it is - whether that be friendship (BS of course) or a long term relationship. However, it works out, you're ready for it.

For the record, as shticky as my above e-mail to that chick was, her profile was all about "I'm looking for a husband." So I gave her a striaght shot. Others got obnoxious/sarcastic/witty comments about their profiles. It all depends.You make a good point though about burning through them. I only have one (not so good) pic up there now, and my edited profile still isn't posted (I pay these jackheads 30 bucks and it takes them a day to implement a change in text on a website???? :confused: ). I don't even have a portrait pic yet (and I may never put one -- makes it too easy for B&M people to stumble across me I think). In any event, I'm probably burning through hotties in not having a completed profile up before messaging then, but at least one already responded, so who knows.

To be honest, I don't even care much for the results at this point. It's just fun enouugh looking at hot chicks.

Franknbeans, eat your heart out :lmao:

actually i'm not being bashed here too easily... minotauro just has no life and had to toss that in there to make him feel better about himself :shrug: Check back later tonight though - I want to get yours and Dot's opinions on some of these chicks.

 
Thoughts on chicks mentioning God and/or Jesus in their profile? For me it's basically been a nonstarter so far, especially if it's in the headline.

I have an amazing relationship with Jesus Christ...
Out.
Actually, this isn't really a bad thing, their being upfront with it. For some folks that's very important and will help them get someone they are more compatible with. And it's better for you to find that out now than get involved with someone, set up a meeting, then find out they are like that. It's a time-saver.

:ph34r: Another piece of advice:

If you're going to be talking to a bunch of women at once you may want to develop a way to keep them organized. I can tell you from personal experience that talking to one thinking you're talking to another doesn't work :X

YahtzeeMilker's On-line dating tips:

Here were my rules, based on past experience.

1. Be Not Ugly.

2. Do not try and impress me with your "guns". Both kinds...arm muscles and/or actual guns.

3. Do not mention your Christian lifestyle, beyond the dropdown of religions you were forced to choose. Even as a half-assed Christian, this scared me.

4. Spelling. Grammar.

5. Be funny. Be witty.

6. Do not ask me if I want to do something outdoorsy for our first date, such as hiking, skiing, kayaking, etc. That makes for a really long day with minimal escape routes.

7. Do not ask me if you can come upstairs when the date is over. Unless I invite you, (which, if you had to ask me, already would have happened had I been planning on it) you can't.

8. Do not order three shots with dinner. While I appreciate a good shot party every now and then, the first half hour of trying to get to know you is not the time. It's awkward.

9. No air guitar.

10. Please don't say "I feel like I've known you my entire life" before the appetizer comes.

11. If I cancel on you at the last minute, do not change your profile to read "I don't want a chick that cancels on me at the last minute, I have feelings too", you whiny #####.

12. Do not ask me if you can put your weed in my purse before we get carded going into a club.

13. Don't call three times the next day. If you have to leave a voicemail, wait until I call you back before you leave another one. Or four.

14. Do not volunteer the information without being asked that you have 6 dates from the same dating service lined up this week and tell me that I'd "better be good".
 
Tell the Yahtzeemilker that she has an awfully long list for a 30-year-old chick on an online dating service.

This "About Me and Who I'd Like To Date" has never gotten me a date, and the only correspondance I've had was with a woman who's handle was "DarkandLovely", in who's world "lovely" and "fat" must mean the same thing. So, don't do anything like this if you want to find a date.

About my life and what I'm looking forI think I can describe myself best by telling you a story. This story may be true, or not. I think it is, but it happened a long time ago and I've had a few blows to the head since then, so let's just say it's true. One night while I was in high school a buddy and I were driving around looking for something to do. I told him I wanted to go to this park we knew of where a number of people from different schools would go to hang out. Usually a few fights would break out there, and general rowdy behavior. Not really a place for the feint of heart. So my friend decided we could go, and since he was driving it was really his decision. He only had one condition... "If someone gets in my face, make sure you get my back, man." he said. I took a sip of beer. "Of course, dude. You're my bro." He smiled and nodded, turning the car toward the park. We got there, and the place was jumping. There had to be about one hundred high school guys there, and perhaps as many as ten girls. Definitely an explosive situation. Being filled with liquid courage, I hopped out of the car and let out my best rebel yell. All eyes locked on me for a brief second, and they knew that I had arrived. My buddy was not as excited as I was. "Hey! Shut up, man! You are going to get us killed!" he groaned. "Don't worry," I said, "I've got your back." We scanned the throng for a few minutes, trying to look as cool as possible. We spotted an empty area close to some people we knew, and headed across the lot. We didn't make it very far when a group of about five guys came out of nowhere and stood before us. "Hey, what school do you guys go to?" the leader inquired. My buddy stepped up, his skinny body puffing up unimpressively. "Pearce," he said. "Cool." said the leader, and he continued on his way. My friend turned to me, but found that I was not there. I had already run away, and was hiding in the back seat of his car. He opened the door, sighed heavily, and started the car. We then drove home in silence.

Interesting. FWIW, I'm meeting a girl from hotornot for drinks tomorrow and will likely tell her. She asked something about how long I've been single, and I used the phrase "split up" instead of divorced. So any backtracking should be minimal.If you're ok with sharing, I'd be interested in seeing your profile at some point. I pretty much just typed in whatever came to mind immediately, so I'm sure mine could use some work.
