No not a football one. Couldn't care less..

Why some say things like "I looked at your profile and I think we would make a good match". How do you know..?! I know nothing about you apart from what you stick in your bio and this is surely just a crumb of info.. a shop window.. Good or bad marketing of yourself. Just a taster. Where is that potential matching confidence coming from huh?

I still think it'd be a pretty bold thing to say without talking to someone privately for a while. Not just based on how they interact with others or how they sell themselves.

Dont think i can agree with you there, provided that i actually have some resource material to go off i can write a few paragraphs if i really want to stretch my fingers, and still include "i think we match" or something similar along those lines, in that message

At the end of the day, for ppl who say that, theyre mostly saying it out of wishful thinking, and possibly opening up the thought process for the receiver to consider where their similarities and/or interests make them a good match

Honestly i find bios and crafting messages as first point of contact really cheap and shitty. Both are extremely poor ways for ppl to make decisions. You cannot get a clear idea of person and who they are based on a bio or the initial first message cos it can all be total bullshit.

Absolutely. But i can get a feel for a persons personality from just sitting back and observing. I had to wait 2 weeks to post on the forums when I made this profile so I just watched and learned.

If I like how you come across in the forums I would be more happy to have a conversation with you than if I didn’t think we could hold a conversation.

Then you get to know someone properly in private chat

I do wonder if that works and triggers anyone into actually considering the match. It is a bit of a pseudo neuro linguistic programming attempt?

It’s all about context as always with the written word. A lot of people when a screen is put in front of them feel the need to shorten the whole phrase. “I think we’d make a good match” most probably should read “ from what I’ve managed to obtain from your profile and the way you look I’d like to possibly find out more bla bla bla.

People get lazy on a text based phone app.

We don't use match either. We tend to chat a little and try and find the common points that at least would make a social somewhat less awkward for either of us, its there we might establish a match or not beyond that.

I think someone nailed it above. It’s only until you talk you would find if you’ve missed stuff out from your profile that might make you have loads in common. So, the initial, your female and I’m male makes it enough to talk.

I hardly never have to look up the profile. The opening line.. the next paragraph and the way their message tells me they didn't read mine..etc. So you get what you give. Matching effort.

I don't think my post really applies to forum users. Obviously we do get some better idea of who we are dealing with by reading the comments. Depending how true to yourself you are here. But where does the deceit lead in the end? If you have to explain to someone privately that you were "just joking" or you "don't mean what you write on here" then I'd be wary of someone like that.

I was discussing this very thing with someone the other day. I sometimes wonder about this form of disingenuous trite, whose foundation has very little substance.

One such example to approach this, without making it sound 'absolute', is to remark "...having read your profile I've noticed one or two potential similarities between us. Perhaps we could discuss..." or something like that anyway.

In any case - "we would make a good match" isn't the best opening gambit.

I would admit "great boobs" is a somewhat hackneyed response. But if one's profile is laden with boobs and cleavage then it's still a plausible remark (but still infuriating nevertheless!).

For some it is as simple as they are in your age range.

No way they can tell a good match or not, you only get a sense of that from talking, even then it’s not guaranteed in person.

But you didn't see my vagina and I'll resist showing you that. so it's not that clear.

That's the annoying bit. Assuming that is enough.

"Why some say things like "I looked at your profile and I think we would make a good match". How do you know..?! I know nothing about you apart from what you stick in your bio and this is surely just a crumb of info.. a shop window.. Good or bad marketing of yourself. Just a taster. Where is that potential matching confidence coming from huh?

•

I was discussing this very thing with someone the other day. I sometimes wonder about this form of disingenuous trite, whose foundation has very little substance.

One such example to approach this, without making it sound 'absolute', is to remark "...having read your profile I've noticed one or two potential similarities between us. Perhaps we could discuss..." or something like that anyway.

In any case - "we would make a good match" isn't the best opening gambit.

To be fair "we would make a good match" in a first message is 1000% better than any I've had all week. "Great boobs" is getting on my wick. "

Hope this week is more stimulating for your inbox and mind. Boo to unimaginative compliments!

Yes please to that! I don't need the compliments, I just feel awkward. But some decent messages would be fabulous

I would admit "great boobs" is a somewhat hackneyed response. But if one's profile is laden with boobs and cleavage then it's still a plausible remark (but still infuriating nevertheless!).

But what is one expected to reply? Oh thank you, I grew them myself?

Can't I tease them first?

I guess it depends on the profile being replied to. Some have such a comprehensive list of requirements it's fairly simple to decide if you match them. Whether or not this means you would be "a match" with the person is a very different thing.
