True Advertising In Dating

Post Reply New Topic

So much of dating seems to be about false advertising. It is frustrating. When you try to be honest, particularly in an online dating profile, people tend to assume it is false advertising, because that is typical for the medium.

So what about a dating medium based on true advertising? Specifics, pros and cons, dealbreakers, and negotiable issues? Spelling out exactly who you are and what you want in an objective way.

I was thinking this morning it might be easier and more effective to do this, even if it means stating things that are unpopular or wouldn't be considered to "sell well."

Forecasted result: Zero dates.

This would only possibly work if it was an AS-AS dating site where people were receptive to blunt black & white straight forward honesty.

The NT world is not like this. It's all about putting your best foot forward and selling yourself w/ positive attributes and omitting the details about anything anyone could possibly take offence or opposition to in order to optimize your chances of meeting someone. Period.

I think it's a great idea, imo. Worth a try. The most simple ideas, are almost always the most successful ones.
