Achieve the Impossible: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Achieve the Impossible
This week offers us one more chance to make the changes that will allow us to reach our goals, however small or lofty.
We are not animals guided solely by instinct, people have the capacity of change, to alter our behavior to achieve what previously was impossible.
I ask you to write down your long-term goals and aspirations and set in motion the steps needed to achieve these goals.
Today’s headline follows this topic:
“With you the potential is unlimited.”
Have a great day!
April Fools: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Monday
Today, if you’re like me, we start the chase to the weekend again. Almost seems like we’ve done this before! :0
It is going to be an exciting week, it’s only a few days until it’s April Fool’s Day, so I have to get my plans in action.
With the technology that’s available with a few clicks and a couple of dollars, the potential for pulling off some good pranks go beyond what could have been accomplished a decade ago.
My favorites are:
- If you’re in retail, or have a friend that is, setting them up for a prank customer compliment and a lottery win at the same time is easy and fun. This is how it’s done: You’ll need a “Thank You” greeting card, or just write a thank you note on a piece of paper and stuff it in an envelope with one of those fake winning lottery tickets. Make sure the card and “gift” is left for them where ever a customer would drop off something for a staff member and your victim won’t figure it out for at least a few hours giving you some nice laughs.
- Using a “spoof card” phone calling card you can call anyone and have the caller ID display anything you want, so you can really trick someone into anything. I like calling from a tow truck business saying their car has been towed. You can even hack into someone’s voicemail an chnage their recorded message… just so much fun to have for a few dollars!
So you can see there are some great pranks easily done.
Back to my suggested headline for your dating profile, today maybe try this one:
“No April Fools here!”
Have a great day!
Freedom: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Monday
“A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.”
This was a favorite quote of Mohammed Nabbous, the Libyan techie that brought a live feed of what was really happening in Libya, from behind Gadhafi’s firewalls and mercenaries, on his radio “Voice of Free Libya” broadcasts. Mohammed is now counted among the hundreds that have died and the many hundreds that will die before this war is ended, many martyrs will be counted and many voices silenced. God save us all.
I add this to my usual “Dating Profile Headline of the Day” blog because life happens to us and we can only honor those that have fought for freedom by offering freedom to others. This is as much of dating as anything can be.
We have regular lives to live, people to love, families to start and yes, even sons and daughters to send to defend our freedoms.
If you remember one thing from my hundreds of blog posts remember this: dating and the freedom to date who we want and where we want is at the very basis of our freedom. Even the act of dating honors those that have paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
For your headline today please use my suggestion:
“Look around where you are right now, for this is freedom.”
Have a great day!
Self-Promotion: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Do you play shy?
Who is the person that does the promotion of “you”?
I mean, do you speak well of yourself or do you have your friends promote you to others so you can ask someone for a date?
Do you play these school yard games of “Who do you like?” and have friends ask around to see if you have a chance with someone before you ask them for a date?
If you look back at your last few dates who set you up more, your friends? Or did you have the nerve to ask for the date yourself more often?
We’re lucky that we can still play the school yard games of who likes you, we just use technology instead of the grapevine now.
Almost every dating service I have reviewed in the past few years offers hints and clues and results of who has visited your profile page, winked or smiled at you (or sent some type of introduction note) and more. These “intro games” can fast-track you into dates but only, and I mean ONLY if you offer up enough self-promotion that will make someone really like you.
Your headline, your picture and how you write your profile, even answering the multiple choice questions in your profile all come down to how well you can promote yourself to someone you haven’t met yet.
Consider self-promotion the next time you visit your own profile page and take ahard look at what you’ve written and answered so far.
Today’s headline of the day is one I rather like and I think will work for many people:
“I have never done ‘shy’, what about you?”
Have a great day!
Good Karma: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Good karma, grocery shopping.
You know, looking back to yesterday and after I had finished work for the day I had a chore to do: pick up some groceries.
Simple enough, right? So I did it and made my way home.
But while I was there a woman, very snazzily dressed, was wondering up and down the aisles, we ccrossed paths several times. I did happen to glance into her shopping cart (often I’ll see something that I should also be picking up) and she had a couple of frozen dinners and two potatoes.
Now, I didn’t try to pick her up, even after having read the excellant advice from “The Conversation King“, I just went my merrily way home.
But, after seeing those very pitiful two potatos in this lady’s cart it made me think, on a Sunday afternoon where there’s no major sports playing, the grocery store was brimming with some very nice, obviously single, women.
So I have to come to this conclusion: everyone that is single should now do there grocery shopping between the hours of Sunday noon until 5:00pm and only in grocery stores that also have a coffee shop either inside, or next door to it.
Think of all the single people, sharing a Sunday dinner, after meeting while grocery shopping for that very meal. It’s what I like to call Karma.
So if you want some of this karma, then I know where you’ll be next Sunday afternoon, right?
And for your headline profile try this one (see if it get’s approved):
“I have good karma, I grocery shop Sunday afternoons.”
Have a great day!
Serious Daters: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
The Final Day of The Month of Love
This is the last day of what I designated “The Month of Love” but that doesn’t mean love no longer needs to be celebrated. How many relationships have you had because they went stale? Broken into a day-to-day routine the love that was there seemed to have evaporated into a boring daily schedule.
When this happens it’s easy to blame your partner for not being more loving, for putting down the torch that was once held high for you. But what’s really going on isn’t you being taken for granted, it’s a breakdown of communication.
We’re not effectively taught communication skills, it’s just something that we’re just supposed to “pick up” in our teens and twenties. So if you see your relationship going sour, before you start an argument about why the relationship is now horrible and you’re sure you’re just being taken for granted, take some time to give a serious look to your complaints. Often the root problem is the lack of communication. (You can find some communication skills books here.)
You and your partner have fallen into a rut and, without discussing it this, blame eventually get’s laid on someone and a fight starts, which is not only the wrong thing to do, it’s pretty hard to take back as a complaint against your partner.
Communication skills can be learned at any phase of a relationship and are at the core of all marriage and relationship counselling sessions. When you can communicate effectively with your partner all of the small problems disappear and the big issues become small ones.
I say this because love needs to be celebrated every day. From a hug and a kiss first thing in the morning to a hug and a kiss at night time. Maybe some special acknowledgements throughout the day, now and again (which has been discussed in other posts and articles here).
Today’s personal ad headline is a serious one, for serious daters:
“Only the serious and qualified should apply.”
Have a great day!
Moving Forward: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
On the road others have traveled
“You’ll just now.”
When you find love you’ll know it. Your life will change, colors will be brighter, the days sunnier and other people just a little more pleasant. Really, that’s what happens.
No matter what “Today is a great day to be in love” and it always will be.
Your adventure starts and ends with love; the searching, the finding, and the living.
My word of advice to you is that when you find love hold onto it. Don’t let him/her, or yourself, drift away.
The next word of advice I have is this dating profile headline that you can use along with your dating profile, wherever that is. Post this:
“Forward is the only way we should move in life”.
Have a great day!
Opportunities and Obstacles: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Out the door, into real life.
I am buried under snow. Much less than the east saw last week, but still enough to reach my knees in places and require an hour or two of shoveling my rather short and thin driveway. Dammit.
Life does offer it’s challenges. I guess I’m lucky that shoveling is mine, for the time being. After all it is Monday and I’m sure something more will happen, like another dump of snow while I’m at work (thanks weatherman!).
Despite it all I can admit to not being second many times in my life, right Steelers fans?
Sorry, it’s not really in my nature to show my sarcastic side to people not in front of my face, or behind me.
As I was saying, the weather hasn’t been all that kind to any of us lately, and I do mean the world population. It’s hard to pick any time zone (and geographic area) that hasn’t had a flood, fire or blizzard to bring chaos and harm upon it within recent memory.
And yet using “How about this weather?” still ranks as a top ten worst pickup line. (I think the rankings need to be updated.)
Life brings to us opportunities and some of these opportunities are disguised as obstacles. It’s your decision what will stand in your way and what you will get through.
For today’s dating profile headline I offer you this suggestion:
“I have never raced towards second place.”
Have a great day!
What’s Important: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Life can take you on a different road.
I’m back!
I had the weekend off of work (you’ll notice the lack of posts), I visited my mom (who’s getting on in years) and drove across the mountains and rivers area that I live to get there.
And it is great to be back home.
I now know why holidays have to end though. It’s so intense catching up on the events of relative’s lives, paying attention to the information so you can ask informed questions later on. Then it’s over and you can catch your breath. And you go home back to the life you have.
It’s what you have that no one can take from you that counts in your life. You can always lose property and money but what’s really important cannot be taken from you, you can only lose it for yourself.
On this note it’s what we are always seeking and often don’t realize we have until it’s gone, the thing that’s most important to us (and that may be different for each one of us but…) that is much harder to find the second time around.
Online dating helps a lot for this part of the second part of life with meeting people because you do get to know a few more details about someone that might otherwise take a few dinner dates (and maybe more) before you can decide on your own personal compatibility with them.
To get started this week I suggest this headline for you to post with your profile:
“The song does not have to remain the same.”
Have a great day!
How Dates Happen: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
It is your turn to wink!
Start the week off right, get a date for Friday!!! Here.
Honestly, if you can’t find a date here, then you’re either:
1) not trying very hard, or;
2) waiting for a date to find you.
Let me put you in on a little secret: you have to want to get a date to get the date. Dates don’t just happen, they take work, determination, and most of all, communication.
Communication, in this case, means saying “Hello” and sending someone a “Wink” to let them know you’re interested.
You can do this!
If you haven’t joined here yet then today is a good day to do it. You can get your profile posted and have it approved by tomorrow morning and be sending out all the free winks you can by lunchtime. Just remember in advance the “wink rules”:
- you can only send out one wink to a member once within 30 days
- you can wink back to someone that has sent you a wink
- you can send a reply of “Not interested” to someone that has sent you a wink
- you can send a maximum of 50 winks a day
- you can not turn off the ability to receive winks from other members except for “hiding” your account which makes you inactive and invisible to all other members, even those you have exchanged messages with
Are you ready yet? yes, of course you are.
Now, you’ve joined, you’ve started your profile and uploaded a photo (or many photos) of yourself and the finishing touch is your headline. Let me suggest this one for you:
“It’s a race to see how will wink first and it’s your turn!”
Have a great day!
Jaunty: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Monday
Today we’re going to have some fun with words.
It’s easy to be misunderstood, even when you’re writing plainly. Different areas can have cultural and societal slang words that, although innocent in one place, has an entirely different meaning somewhere else.
This includes online dating personals too, because your ad is shown to many people in many different places.
If you’re worried about the possibility of offending someone with the words you choose to write, then you really need to have www.thesaurus.com bookmarked so you can check.
Otherwise, just trust me and post this headline today:
“Not trollop slogging, just eying someone jaunty.”
Have a great day!
Weekday Warrior: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Monday
Today is going to be one of those Mondays. It’s -12C outside, cold enough to freeze the smoke as it passes my lips, and I just don’t feel like working today.
I will struggle through the day, much as you might, putting a happy face on all of it.
There is redemption after 8 hours, so instead of grumbling under my breath I will sing a song of freedom for when the clock strikes 5:00.
When you’re home again, inside the safety and warmth of your abode, log into your chosen online dating service and consider this as your headline:
“A weekday warrior seeking for someone to protect.”
Have a great day!
