Don’t be "that guy" if you want that girl - Part 2 of 3

This post is part of a series. Click to read part one.

We delve into more men’s match.com profiles. Remember, these are quotes from the profiles of guys who are looking for a geek girl like me - a late 20s, educated, professional woman.

THAT GUY… likes the idea of having a girlfriend but not the work involved in getting (or keeping) one.

  • “tell u later”
  • “just checking this site out…see what kind of women are in here..”
  • “I am not sure who I want to meet here.”
  • “I’ll have to update this later…”

“That guy” likes the idea of raking in the women, but not enough to put in the work to fill out his profile or articulate what he wants. To the ladies, this says, “I’m hoping my picture is hot enough that I won’t need to say much.

  • “Well it is really hard to describe myself..”
  • “Let’s see what I can say about myself…”
  • “It says I have to write 200 characters, so…”
  • “I was lazy and didn’t write much, but luv to hear from ya”
  • “I am running out of things to say about myself”

Lines like these are kryptonite to women. They scream, “I have problems communicating.

Stay tuned on Thursday for part 3 of the series: THAT GUY… is cocky.
