When doing a search on Match.com, you have one picture. Your first impression of how you look. I think this is probably the most important decision you make when creating your profile. I think there are a few possible mistakes that have certainly turned me away and a few things that have caused me to click and see more as well.
It does not matter how pretty you are, the closer you get the camera to your face, the worse it gets.
If you don't have a camera, please don't use your phone in the mirror for a picture. You obviously have a computer, use the webcam, or borrow one. The cell phone picture is just not working.
DO NOT post your main picture as a picture with yourself with a girl, or an obvious cropped out girl on a dating website. Common sense??
I am so attracted to a smile. The more you frown in your pics the sadder you look and the more mugshotish it looks. A smile makes you look beautiful :-)
Do you really think it is a good idea to have yourself holding an alcoholic beverage (or 2) in your main picture? For some reason this is not screaming "I want a committed relationship" but maybe that is just me.
If you are wearing a hat in your main picture, I automatically think your bald. In your defense, that may just be a hairstylist thing.
I have a date on Wednesday with a guy who recently moved here and does not know many people. He used to be a quarterback in school. We'll see how it goes! I heard from Mr. Knee Surgery last night and apparently he is recovering well! Jokingly when he asked me what I was doing the other day, I said I had laid out and a butterfly attacked me and I thought it was a Cicada so I flipped out, but luckily I survived. He said when we have our coffee date he would bring me a cicada. Last night I said well all the cicadas will be gone when we have our coffee date, but luckily he said he would freeze one for me. How thoughtful ;-)
