AliOop Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 I'm wondering what others' opinions are....I decided to go back for another try on OLD and see a profile of a guy I think is quite interesting. His age cutoff is 3 years younger than I am so I probably won't bother to message him. (Damn!) My friend told me I'm nuts not to message him. I consider listed preferences to be written in stone - are they more of a moving target? I'd hate to pass up an opportunity but don't want him rolling his eyes and saying, "Can't she READ?"
d0nnivain Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Acknowledge in your original communication why you think that you fit the bill even though this one thing is different than his specifications. This technique works with jobs too, if the resume is read by a person not a machine.

Author AliOop Posted March 13, 2015 Author Posted March 13, 2015 Thanks for the advice. Maybe I'll give it a shot!
fitnessfan365 Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 If a woman's age cut off is a few years older than me, I tell her in my email that even though I'm a few years younger I was confident enough to round up. But in the end age doesn't really matter within reason. I've had women that were ten years older start out telling me that they "didn't date younger men". But that didn't stop them from ending up with me.
