Is it a turn off to state ur looking for a relationship on an OLD profile?


Recommended Posts

I mean besides tinder that has the hookup reputation, is it bad to state ur looking for a relationship or does it look desperate/negative on other OLD sites?

in life women are looking for relationships so mentioning it in your OLD profile is no problem

l wondered that back when in my short old days.

As a guy l dunno , most of the women said they were looking for a serious long term thing, which was what l was looking for too so nope not at all.

 

l couldn't really work out why but as a guy, it sort of seemed saying that myself somehow caused some negative thing with the women though.

l might've been imagining it not sure but it did seem that way.

No it doesn't look desperate. It's a statement of fact.

 

I will (or should) weed out people who are not seeking the same.

I don't think so. I'm talking to a guy on Zoosk who's profile says that. It was one of the reasons I decided to answer his IM...the main reason was because he sent me an actual message and not a heart or flower or canned question. :)

In my experience it is a turn on or at least an attention greener for women who are also looking for relationships. If it is a turn off it is for women who are not interest in relationships and honestly, that's a good thing for you.

No, does not look desperate at all. I only swipe right on men who are clearly looking for a relationship as that's also what I want. Actually that's the first info I look for.

I'm obviously in the minority here, but I find the "I'm looking for a relationship" line to be a turn-off, and I am a relationship kind of man myself. Why? Because it sets up unreasonably high expectations from the get-go, I want to date for several months before committing to an exclusive relationship. I want to see what you're about, get to know you, see how the sex is, and if it all still clicks after a few months then I'll push for a relationship. Dating should be about the journey, not the destination.

Not necessarily. If you're young and want marriage and a family someday, dating has a purpose.....to find a mate.

Most guys don’t read the profiles. Those looking for just sex likely won’t tell you and won’t be turned away by it.

 

Not a turn off but sort of pointless for a woman to state.
