How much info should i have on an online dating profile?

Hi TxGirl,

I would suggest the following.

first work up a profile on paper, that tells what you want people to know about you. Then read it like your the guy looking to meet you. Look for things like, "i work at the only tanning salon in town", or "I work at the express print in the down town."

Keep the information very genetic, yet detailed enough to let people know what you are looking for but not be played by someone who would try to decieve you.

Also think long and hard about what you are looking for. I never want a person who spends like crazy, and I don't want someone who is always having to be asked for their forgiveness.

a relationship should be taken slowly. There are a few good guys out there, but you may have to spend a year to find them and meet publicly and never never never tell them how to reach you on a phone, email or anything else until you are sure they are safe.

With my experience from online dating, I would put down as much about yourself to weed out people that you wouldnt be interested in. So many people email for sex or are in situations that I would never want to be a part of! Just make sure you dont put anything about places you go/where you work (since they will know the general area you live in) and dont give out your address, telephone numbers. Most of all, just use common sense!

Tell as much as you feel comfortable with. Excluding your past relationships info. Better to weed out the idiots. There are so many out there.

Don't give enough info so that ppl know where you live, work, or go recreationally. And when you put your likes and dislikes try to start general with things people can relate to so that they will read more, then get more specific. Don't mention sex or you'll get more responses than you bargined for. Thats about it.
