Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Monday** To my Canadian friends, Happy Thanksgiving!
Unless your dating is error prone, like the Atlanta Braves’ second baseman Brooks Conrad, dropping the ball is usually a recoverable offense. An apology can go a long way and if you learn from your mistakes you won’t have to get traded to another city to (hopefully) live down your mistakes.
So keep your errors to a minimum.
Be respectful. Be funny. Be yourself. And if you can’t be all three, be the first two.
If you haven’t had much luck with online dating then I have a few suggestions that will help you turn your fortunes around:
- Edit your profile and do it now. Make it less wordy, cut out a lot of the insignificant stuff and limit yourself to discussing two or three things about yourself without too much detail, after all, you do need to save something for your first date, right?
- Update all your photos and make sure you’re the only person in any of them. Be sure to have as your primary picture a head and shoulders picture and remember to smile nicely.
- Exchange three or four messages, not more, before either talking on the phone or meeting for a coffee date. Overextending the time that you email, instant message and chat online before meeting means you’ll have more opportunities to mess things up and turn the person off.
- Change your headline every few days. You never know which one is going to strike the attraction of the person you’re destined to meet, so give destiny a helping hand by posting a new profile headline regularly.
Today this is my headline suggestion for you:
“Life is a game that I intend to win!”
Have a great day!
Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Look into the path of your future
If you’ve left the glorious fantasy of your life behind and you’re eyes have been opened to the trials and tribulations that are the human condition, then you’re not alone.
Life, as we all find out sooner or later, is not actually depicted properly in our favorite television shows.
Unless it’s a documentary of the poor and homeless, I’m sure you can agree with me that with this comparison, not matter what we’re up to, life is pretty good.
How does this translate in better dating you ask?
When you can accept the condition of your life you are at a place where you can then plan and define the next steps of your life, of the direction you will steer your life towards.
Being in this place allows for more understanding of others and an overall improved life experience as you include others into your life’s path.
That is when dating is improved.
For today, keeping what you read in mind, post this as your dating headline:
“I am ready to share my life with you.”
Have a great day!

Liu Xiaobo, Nobel Peace Prize Winner 2010
I am a believer in my own intellect.
I believe that I can dissect the facts and come to a reasonable conclusion.
Maybe “reasonable” is too disparate a word. Men of “reason” understand that reason is both a shield and a hammer.
Since the dawn of time reason has been used to defend any position men have found to be “reasonable” and attack any position they deem “unreasonable” in that they can deduce the facts but weighted to base their own means to an end using reason.
It is this systematic reasoning that allows both evil and good to seem to balance out but in truth the game is fixed.
The laws of the land are held by the men that can form reason and explain their means to an end based on a methodology that is not fair and often lawless.
Yesterday, Friday October 8, 2010, with the announcement of Liu Xiaobo winning the Nobel Peace Prize, based on his determination to rail his people against the “reason” of the machine that occupies the power structure of his homeland and forcing him into an unwarranted confinement, is an incredible example of the reason of man and the inherent evil that men are capable of with their interpretation of “reason”.
I ask that you do your part, as a person of reason and as a person that will stand up to the fight against the unreasonable that is in our world today and find a way to make a stand, just as Liu Xiaobo has made a stand of reason and is now punished beyond tears for his determination.
I call to you to repeat this post, to flood the internet with this message that we will not stand idly by, that we, also being people of reason and being able to discern real truth from the hammer of reason, will commit some small measure towards the freedom of Liu Xiaobo and the people that find his reason to be reasonable.
Today I ask that you post as your dating profile headline this simple sentence:
“I will stand with Liu Xiaobo, a man of reason.”
Have a great day!

Thursday“I’ll always be there.”
How many past lovers have we said this to, from grade school on up?
It was the hormones, the emotions, the passion of the moment… whatever you want to call it, the moment sure was orchestrated by something other than clear-headed thinking, am I right?
Meeting people and beginning our people search online does allow us the opportunity to “edit” our thoughts and messages, to give ourselves an extra few moments to make sure our messages and intent are clear and sincere.
Just another obvious advantage to online dating, score 1 for the Internet.
With this advantage comes great power, I must warn you. You become even more responsible for getting the ideal message about yourself published to your online dating profile.
I can at least help with your headline and for today I suggest this:
“So far so great! Join me!”
Have a great day!

Ever met a clown on a date?
I have to ask: Why does “Billy the Exterminator” (a show on A&E tv) always answer his phone “Hello?” when it’s always his mother calling him. I mean, there’s no surprise, it is staged for the tv show, and no one else ever seems to call him, so why not just “Hi mom”?
Yes, I had the day off work and watched tv all day, which was a “Billy the Exterminator” show marathon. But I will be back at work tomorrow, and not watching any tv at all… that’s the plan so far.
I’m sure you’ve had some days that not all went to well. Maybe it was just a small part of your day that ruined the remainder of it… my question to you is “Why did this small thing ruin the rest of your day?” Couldn’t you bounce back from the setback? Why not?
Often times the best thing to do is allow you to cool off, take a few “personal minutes” and get your emotions back under control. With my couple of decades working in the retail service sector I’ve taken a lot of “personal minutes” to get my breath back and my temperature to cool off.
That being said, one trick I’ve learned over the years is to simply walk away once a customer begins to not be respectful, or they are just plain idiots that only want to test your patience. Get your boss, after all that’s why he makes the big bucks. In a “robbery scenario” you’re told to just give the robber the money, your safety comes first.
Well, I suggest that the “idiot scenario” should also be a training segment that retail service people be trained for too. It will certainly allow a lot of people to work a lot better when this practice is in use and the boss has your back.
If you suddenly realize that the person you are on a date with is an idiot what do you do then? You have a friend call you with a fake emergency or you make some lame excuse to leave but you still use the same basics of the “idiot scenario” and get the hell out. Am I right or what?
For today’s headline, show your wisdom to those that are in the right place to read new your headline:
“There’s no law against stupid, yet, but I’m working on it!”
Have a great day!

Be the bird or the bird food, your choice.
I awoke this morning to a bright sunny day and thought to myself “Life is good”.
Because life is good. Even in dark moments, they are only moment and we are all agents of change. The only thing that really holds us back is the fear of change.
When we accept that life is in a constant state of change and that we are only responsible for how we react to that certainty of change then we truly have control over our own lives.
This thought leads me to today’s headline you can post to your dating profile:
“I can accept change, how will you change my life?”
Have a great day!

MondayI had such a great week I know have a “Vacation Hangover”. You know what I mean, the very talk of work makes my head spin, a little nausea and headaches too.
Las Vegas, although the experience is only just a couple of days past, seems like a dream now. “Did I really go to Las Vegas? Why did I come back if it was so great?”
The answer to the first question is “Yes”, the answer to the second question can only be “I was abducted by aliens”.
And, of course, amid the excitement of planning my trip (if you haven’t been following along it was the tenth wedding anniversary trip with my wife, who I met online and inspired me to create this website back in 1999) I totally forgot about renewing our car insurance. It expired the day we returned from Las Vegas so likely I thought that I’d remember to renew it the day after a 12 hour airplane journey that included three airplane transfers and, well, I didn’t.
So this morning will be spent walking to the closest auto insurance agent and paying my dues, a little in cash, a little in a credit card payment and, as is usual these days, about a liter of blood or an arm.
At least I live in a semi-socialist province in Canada (British Columbia) where the government has a stranglehold on auto rates and if you don’t comply you’ll be shown the tow truck that will impound your vehicle. Immediately.
But I digress, terribly, from my stated goal of providing you with a great headline for your online dating profile.
So let’s get back to where we should have been all along and today I suggest to you that this should be your posted headline:”
“I know what I like and I like what I know.”
Have a great day!
