Well I am not a girl, but strictly following rules is just too legalistic for me, so I as a Man will answer here too.
1. Do you really read long profiles? Or do you read profiles at all?
I do not read the long profiles unless the Lady contacts me or replies to me or if she viewed my profile - as then I will read her entire profile.
If the Lady is not in my area and not near my age then reading her profile almost feels like an invasion of their privacy, because her profile is meant for some one else and NOT for me.
2. What kind of pictures get your attention the most?
I say a smile matters most, as a frowning picture matters less.
Some profile pictures are very clever and the picture seems to speak out, and that I can see but can not explain.
3. Do you have an issue with different levels of education? Would you consider dating a person without a college degree?
Education is not important to me but I do not have a list of credits or diplomas. What matters more is whether one is educated in humility along with courage and a liberal Christianity.
An ignorant Saint would be better than an intelligent sinner, IMO.
4. Do you want to know about his/her ex?
I would not ask for that and everyone does have baggage, but if everything goes well then their ex and their baggage simply has to come up, just as my own baggage is attached to me too.
5. Do you care about race/ethnicity?‎
I care about race and ethnicity, but that does not mean that I am prejudiced against or attracted to either. In some cases (some Ladies) then their race or ethnicity is really super cool, and it depends on the individual person.
6. When dating do you care about his/her appearance or personality? Do you prefer looks over personality? What attracts you?
I prefer looks over personality, but that is because I expect myself to improve the Lady's personality if she is overly crude.
When a person (male or female) has a great or enlightened personality then their looks matter far less or not at all.
7. What attracts you to a guy/gal?
The very best attraction of all is when the Lady likes me, and she shows it, tells it, expresses it.
8. Do you prefer to date someone who has the same level of spiritual maturity or interest?
That would be the ideal fantasy as the utmost blessed of dates, which is why I do not look for it nor expect it.
9. Do you believe everything you read on their profile?
I see it as a virtue to believe whatever the Lady says, and I consider every word on any profile to be honest and sincere.
Unfortunately many profiles turn me away as the Lady says things that serve as their boundary line which I can not cross over.
10. Chemistry versus Compatibility; what's more important?
Both are important, and it would be awful to have chemistry without compatibility, but if I must choose then chemistry is far better than comparability. Having compatibility without chemistry is far easier to walk away from.
1. Do you really read long profiles? Or do you read profiles at all?
I do and I prefer it over the invitation of "go ask me". I do not ask because I do not want to be misunderstood as a lady pursuing a man. I do ask for opinions over general interests but will not go further than that.
2. What kind of pictures get your attention the most?
A face with a thousand-watt smile :) where joy from within radiates all over.
3. Do you have an issue with different levels of education? Would you consider dating a person without a college degree?
It is a concern but waivable if his circumstances did not permit him to pursue one and not because he is "lazy" for school stuff.
4. Do you want to know about his/her ex?
It depends upon his judgment whether letting me know would help us go for a stronger relationship then I am always open to listen but the initiation would not be expected from me. If ever he would open up such subject, I would not let him name her or badmouth her for it is not a christian's business to do such.
5. Do you care about race/ethnicity?‎
Yes, I want a race which shares same customs as ours so that we could go after better things than get stuck bridging the gap/ reconciling differences.
I met several missionaries, guess what? people who truly love and follow Jesus are EASY to deal with, like you've known them for a long time even you just met them. I believe it is so because Jesus is no stranger to believers and it is Him we encounter in the person of fellow Christians. :)
I guess maturity in faith can cover every form of gap.
6. When dating do you care about his appearance or personality? Do you prefer looks over personality? What attracts you?
It is natural to admire a good-looking fella but the REAL PERSON without the face matters most. A great personality is apparent in one's bearing. I want to enjoy the moment because of his "cool" personality and no to feel shy because he gave so much weight on his looks
Just be neat and smell fresh (no to strong perfumes) because I have rhinitis :)
7. What attracts you to a guy/gal?
sense of humor :goofball:
8. Do you prefer to date someone who has the same level of spiritual maturity or interest?
Of course, that is very ideal :hearts: I even pray for someone who is more mature than I am spiritually. U got to share life with one who is of the same wavelength as yours because oneness should be in all areas: a. spirit (both christians), b. soul (interests), and c. body (in marriage).
9. Do you believe everything you read on their profile?
My default presumption is good faith therefore yes I believe what is written on their profiles.
10. Chemistry versus Compatibility; what's more important?
Chemistry :goofball:
I don't know, i think chemistry is the fruit of compatibility. There was a spark because the other person fit your taste.
