SJC2008 Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 Yes it's a league thread and it's not about whether or not they exist. If you think they do or don't start your own thread. Anyway, when I search I click on women whom I'm attracted to (Not models or hotties) so I assume if a cute/attractive women viewed my profile she found me attractive. Yeah they don't respond because there's someone hotter at the click of the mouse or I'm still in college at an older age. That being said, guys do you think your views are a good gauge of your league?? Women are welcome to chime in as to why the viewed a profile.
Eternal Sunshine Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 No, your league are the girls that date you beyond first few dates. 2
USMCHokie Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 No...I tended to notice that those that viewed me but nothing else were generally above me in terms of league...
Author SJC2008 Posted September 5, 2012 Author Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) On POF my views range quite a bit. I was just thinking, like I said, I click on women I find attractive so mabye the women that view me are attracted to me. Why else would you waste your time looking at a profile when the pics are the first thing you see? Edited September 5, 2012 by SJC2008 edit

Why else would you waste your time looking at a profile when the pics are the first thing you see? Maybe they see a thumbnail version of your best pic and are intrigued. Then they see your full sized pic/other pics...and decide that they are not attracted after all. 1
Eternal Sunshine Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 Side note: leagues do exist no question about it 1

tigressA Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 I would say most guys who view my profile are not in my 'league'. I don't find them attractive at all. I will only visit someone's profile if: --I find them attractive from their default picture --I can't easily discern their attractiveness from their default picture and I need to see it enlarged/see other pictures I only send/respond to a message if I find their picture(s) attractive and their written profile interesting. And that hardly ever happens.

I'm glad I ddin't deal break her over it because in person I was really attracted to her. Too bad it didn't work out:(

You may have the willingness to overlook a picture or two, but for every one of you, there are 10 others who won't give a second glance...
tigressA Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 If I'm ever over a picture, then I just don't bother with them. It's better for me that way. I like to have a good idea of what I'll be facing when I meet someone, since those who are meeting me certainly will have that. I always make sure my pictures are up to date and that they are all of decent quality--no blurs, fuzziness, being too washed-out, etc. I expect the same.
Eternal Sunshine Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 Another thing to consider: your pictures shouldn't be "too good". If you frequently get first "dates" but don't make it to the second date, chances are that your pictures are more attractive than what you look like in person. I use first date/meet up rejection rate as a gauge of that.
oaks Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 On some sites the thumbnails are so small that you can't tell if someone is attractive without clicking on the profile anyway, so profile views don't mean much. Also, don't forget that profile-clickers are self selecting. First they have to choose to be on the site, then they have to choose whether to allow you to see that they've visited your profile (some sites have a 'browse anonymously' feature), then they have to go looking (vs, eg, just waiting for their mailbox to get busy). So these viewers aren't likely to be representative in any sense. But anyway, does it matter? Contact them if you like them. If they keep dating you then that's success. And, I agree with what ES says.
