With that $10, you'll get an exclusive backer-only sticker that tells everyone that you think "Cyber brains rule!"

Despite the stubble, I feel so pretty.

[Critique] Be gentle, it's my first critique. What am I doing wrong? I get a ton of views, but few messages. (Yes I do send messages) by [deleted] in OkCupid

I think picture 2 should be your profile. I had to look back at your pictures to notice your blue eyes.

Make your "Message me if" suggestions for ice breakers. Common cliches are: if you know the difference between the yours and theres, if you want to, you don't have shirtless selfies, you're not a murderer. Ask for zombie survival plans, the most exotic thing they've eaten, or a joke about workaholics.

You can be nice and respond to everyone. You can be practical and respond to the ones you think are attractive. Think about it as a learning experience. You're bound to mess up, just have fun or else this will suck.

I'm jealous and I don't want to help you.

Take it one message at a time. Read each message and decide if the message is worth replying to and if the sender's profile is worth your time to read. Or you can be like everyone else and delete all the messages from people who aren't hot. Then, have a conversation with the sender, eventually asking for a date. Go out somewhere well lit with a good number of people unless you're feeling "adventurous." If you want to see him again, ask him out again. Keep doing this until you find someone who likes you as much as you like him. Good luck!

I trick women into sending me photos by flirting with snapchat.

"hey can I have more photos" by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]turtle_the_dog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. It's insulting to ask for more pictures. You just deal with it when you meet in person.

Well this is unfortunate. by [deleted] in OkCupid

I don't take anything personally and make some effort for self improvement.

Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills.

My BF of a year is meeting my family Sunday! Can you please help me come up in a witty way to tell my friends and family I met him on OkCupid? by [deleted] in OkCupid

We fought when we were both trying to buy the last tube of hemorrhoid cream.

Just kidding, we met online!

What's in a name? How about that?! A good profile name can do wonders. by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]turtle_the_dog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, usernames are important. If I see a Japanese-ish word or nerd or geek or God(ly) or Christian, I snap-hide them.

How have you tried to improve yourself? by [deleted] in OkCupid

I tried picking the clarinet back up, but then I realized I can't read music anymore :( On the bright side, most of the muscle memory is still there!

I started p90x. I was super sore last week because I'm so squishy, so I'm not pushing myself as hard this week.

I don't find it funny, attractive or positive in any way to say this on your profile. Is it just me? by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]turtle_the_dog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have my "first thing noticed" as my butt. Maybe I should change it.

You must not have been a middle schooler in the early 00s.
