An acquaintance gave me the OK to publish excerpts from his profile that I helped him finish. Said he was getting contacted by women who didn’t match what he was looking for in a companion--some not even close. He wanted to express himself better, yet not offend anyone. We agreed that although it should be understood in a profile what one isn’t looking for, some people just don’t comprehend well when they read. It’s simple, quite different, and funny:
…If your weight
doesn’t match your height, you are on the plump side, don’t have a diet and
exercise program that shows, have a lot of darkness in your past, have bad
credit… or have intentions of asking me for money shortly after we meet, then
please…
…I’m that guy who’d
like to meet you via FaceTime or Skype…
I’m not looking for
potential because I don’t want to be anyone’s potential…
I have tough skin so
please don’t appease me because you are desperate… you won’t hurt my feelings
by simply saying somewhere along the line before or during our first date, that
I’m not the one because if I feel that you aren’t her, I will kindly let you
know and we both can get on to the next thing on our respective agendas…
I'll give him a shout real soon and let you know how things are going. Surely with his new profile, he'll be more successful in comfortable ways.
What do you think?
