Find Your Ideal Jewish Partner

You've finally decided to join a Jewish dating site. Initially, you are full of enthusiasm: you browse dozens of profiles every day and attempt to start conversations every weekend, but to no avail. After several such fruitless attempts, you begin to lose hope and wonder if there might be something to help you find your ideal Jewish partner. Indeed - here are some tips that will help you succeed in online dating.

Work on your dating profile: When you are dating online, you don't need to worry about looking your best, but you should worry about making your profile look its best. Consider how much time you spend browsing someone's profile, then imagine someone else looking at your profile for that long. Have you written about yourself clearly and impressively enough to make an impression? Follow the tips below to create a good dating profile.

Your profile should be impressive, yet honest and straightforward. Do not brag about being able to write sonnets because you think it will impress women, especially if you struggle to answer questions with more than monosyllabic phrases.

Highlight what makes you different—mention a few details that set you apart from the rest.

When you talk about hobbies, mention actual hobbies and go into detail about what you enjoy doing as part of your hobby. If you love reading, talk about the last book you read and why you liked it.

Share as many details as you feel necessary, but don't overdo it. Just try to catch someone's attention and make them want to start a conversation with you.

Few people enjoy interacting with faceless characters. A name associated with a face inspires more trust. It has long been proven that by including your photo in your profile, you increase your chances of a positive response by more than 50%. If you are unhappy with how you look, the solution is not to post a photo of a younger or slimmer person. Remember, the truth will eventually emerge. Instead, spend a little money and ask a professional to take a good, flattering photo of you to post.

If you are a shy person, then the most significant advantage of online dating for you will be complete privacy. Do not hesitate to browse too many profiles; otherwise, how will you make the right choice? Make a shortlist of people who, you believe, have common interests with you, and invite them to communicate either in the site's chat or outside it. Remember, an invitation to chat is just that—an invitation, not a date. Only if everything goes well and you both like each other, you might think about a date.

By following the tips above, you will undoubtedly increase your chances of finding the perfect Jewish half on a Jewish dating site.
