I've been on OkCupid for over a year and 1/2. I think that exhibits plenty of patience lol...
I'm gonna add my profile in hopes that you guys will critique it (mainly the women, I want to know what kind of stuff creeps into their mind when reading it).
I give you my OkCupid profile. It's almost identical on both match and pof:
My self-summary I'm not really interested in dating right now but I've been fortunate enough to meet some interesting people via this website so I'd love to keep that going. And If I really like you I'm not opposed to things developing further, but just friends for now.
I used to be painfully shy and I hated it. I decided to do something about it and have been forcing myself into uncomfortable situations (like meeting up with women I don't know from okcupid) the past few years. It has definitely helped as I am wayyy less shy than as little as 3 years ago. It's still work in progress though and probably always will be.
Apparently I'm not TOO socially inept though because everyone I've met on here has wanted to hang out again after the 1st meeting. =]
I live with my lesbian sister, her lesbian friend, and her straight guy friend. Sometimes I feel like I'm living in The Real L Word (yes I've seen that show haha). But they're all cool and it's definitely interesting being able to observe different lifestyles.
I love sports. College football is the greatest sport on earth. I'm a die hard Gator fan (yes even when we suck like this year). I definitely have a nerdy side though and I still attend video game tourneys occasionally. My motto in life is dessert first. I honestly can't go a day without eating some kind of sweet. I love cake. I tend to label myself as an observer. I like to watch and see how people interact with each other.
I'm not extremely into the bar/club scene but I do dabble in it every once in a while (yah all my pics are from the rare times I do go out). Especially if it's been a long day/week. The pub crawls downtown are really fun too.
I am observant, a little shy, and open
The first things people usually notice about me People who know me well tell me I look different every day. Probably because my hair never does the same thing twice, even with the same haircut.
People who don't know me, I have no idea. Depends on the setting I guess.
The six things I could never do without College football
Cake
Electricity
College football
Any other type of sweet
Family
I spend a lot of time thinking about What I'm going to eat next.
Past regrets so I don't make the same mistake twice.
Why gum commercials have gotten so strange over the years.
On a typical Friday night I am Shakin my butt somewhere.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit A girl I met on here stole my clothes. Yah I'm serious. If you've got a similar story I'd love to hear it lol.
And another girl made me look at naked women (no not her) for about 30 minutes the 1st time we met. Luckily for her I didn't mind too much.
I’m looking for
- Girls who like guys
- Ages 18-30
- Near me
- Who are single
- For new friends
You should message me if - You like to meet new people.
- You're a girl that's not afraid of messaging a guy. =]
- You don't take yourself too seriously.
- You like cake.
- You're not out to steal my clothes!
Or if you have any crazy ideas about awkward social situations I can throw myself into, or if you'd like to join me in them.
What do you guys think? Women, what crosses your mind when you read that?
