A more attractive dating profile

Going online is a great way to reach out to so many interesting people. But first you need to attract the right candidates and for this having a dating profile that stands out from the rest is a must. One of the best ways of doing this is by coming up with creative ways to describe yourself in your internet dating profile. For instance, the profile header should be witty and attractive. A few examples are “Just like a new job, I offer excellent benefits”, “New girl on the block needs a tour guide” Most dating profiles come across as lackluster because they are a mish mash of the typical and non-informative. Rather than describing yourself in generic terms as “fun-loving”, “adventurous”, “fond of dining out”, use phrases that detail your interests in expressive terms. For instance instead of the tame “adventurous”, you could say that you a person “would love to join the mile-high club” or to describe yourself as a gourmet you could write that you are “transported by the vibrant colors as well as the aroma of herbs and spices in Indian cuisine”. At the same time try not to bore prospective dates with overly long profiles or too much flowery language. Avoid long-winded descriptions of yourself if you want to get noticed. Reveal your qualities but only so much as to tantalize the readers into wanting to know more about you. Very soon you will be flooded with responses to meet for a date.

More variety in conversation

The ability to converse well can hardly be underestimated in a dating relationship. and being creative here is sure to go a long way in impressing a potential partner – it will not only ensure that you stay away from tired pick-up lines and instead go for wittier ways to introduce yourself but eventually being a creative will equip you with the ability to hold an interesting discussion. One way to do this is to introduce people to new things  - not so much as straight-up facts or dry statistics but rather things such as little pieces of trivia, ideas, tastes, concepts, philosophies, perspectives, or world views. Expose yourself to new ideas, listen to new music, travel to new places and read new books. Absorb the essence of all these and relate it to others in a fun, witty and interesting way. Don’t be afraid to offer original or even a little controversial opinions at times. All this will intrigue and interest your date and he/she will be only too ready to meet you a second or third time.

More attractive personality

Those who are of a creative bent of mind, find it is easier to acquire skills like singing, playing a musical instrument or painting – all of which are often considered traits of an attractive personality in the dating scene. But if you feel such attempts are beyond your area of expertise, how about dancing? Most men and women love to shake a leg with their partners on the dance floor. This makes partners with dancing skills some of the hottest items on the dating scene. Again being creative can also help you flaunt your culinary skills. Women have long known that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. And this is something that even guys are now discovering about their girlfriends. getting creative in the kitchen is not only a great way to impress your lover but in fact make for a highly sensual atmosphere – the play of textures, aromas, tastes and colors that cooking involves is sure to give you and your date enough ideas for later that evening.

More romantic ways to woo your date

Being creative will again help you infuse more romance and depth in your dating relationship. For instance all guys bring flowers for their dates but for a more creative take on this common custom, pick out those to which you can find a sentimental connection in your love life. For instance if you happen to remember the floral print dress or the floral perfume your partner wore on your first date, send her those blooms with a note reminiscing about the connection. Or perhaps instead of focusing on showy blooms like practically everyone does, put together a bouquet that is highly fragrant. Choose from gardenias, freesias, lilacs and lilies of the valley, all of which smell divine. Alternately write a romantic letter. In these times of Facebook and Twitter, do something completely against the grain like writing out a love letter for your girl in your own hand. Use a perfumed paper if you have one and dress up your epistle with a satin ribbon like the lovers of yore. Finally leave it somewhere least expected like in the car dashboard or pinned on your partner’s pillow and he/she is sure to be bowled over your romantic gesture.

Your compliments are lovelier

People are constantly being told to show greater appreciation for their partners if they want a happy relationship. And yet in many cases they are clueless on how to keep it up once they have finished with their declaring their love and complimenting their partner’s looks. Bringing your creativity into play here can help you garner bonus points with your beloved. For instance Go beyond the routine “Good Morning” and whisper words like “I’m glad I woke up with you by my side” in your partner’s ears as you both wake up to a new day. It is not only hugely sensual but when you think of how many spouses, by compulsions of ill-health or profession, are unable to enjoy this simple pleasure every day, you will realize how lucky you are to be together. Also find unique ways to compliment your partner on her looks. Choose a particular feature that you have always loved and compliment her – again – on it. If it is her eyes, you could say, “Your eyes shine like stars in a clear sky” or if you love her long, brown hair, you could say, “I love the way your hair cascades in brown waves on your back.”

You can bring your creativity into play to wish your partner on special occasions too. For instance, to make your birthday message truly unique, you could include some personal details about your partner. For instance, “Happy birthday so-and-so! I hope your day is filled with …" and in the blank space, you can insert three things that you know he/she likes – they could be random things like climbing trees or getting flowers or special ones like a lifelong dream or heartfelt plans. If you feel this is rather corny, try something wittier like “How do you expect me to remember your birthday, when you never look any older? Happy birthday!”

Makes dates more fun

There’s no doubt that you and your partner like spending time with each other. But sometimes, the dinner and a movie routine can get a tad too repetitive and you may want to do something different once in a while. So if you and your partner love movies but you don’t wish to spend a bomb on theater tickets, go for a creative take on the drive-in movie date idea by Simply arranging one in your own garage. After you move your TV and pedestal to the garage, set it up with a DVD player and hook up the speakers. Insert your partner’s favorite movie in the DVD player and test it a couple of times so that there are no glitches later. If you want to go the whole hog, arrange for some popcorn and soda so that you and your date can have a complete drive-in movie experience while knowing that it was all set up just for the two of you. Or if you like your adventures in the outdoors, take your partner and set off on a drive along a completely new route. Stop at an unknown village or small town and have dinner there, all the while of course with fake names or even accents, if you can manage. It will be not only great fun being completely unpredictable but being partners in a secret can make it all seem truly
exhilarating.

Makes gifts more thoughtful

While buying gifts is easy and now can even be done from the comfort of your home, coming up with creative gift ideas for your date is what will make him/her see you in a new light. For instance you could make gift coupons based on romantic intimate ideas that you know your partner will like. A sensual massage for your woman for instance complete with aromatic oils, flickering candles and soft music. Or perhaps a box of her favorite chocolates even though the particular confectioners is at the other end of the city. On the other hand, if you are the artistic type, gift your partner a painting that you have made. Or if you can wonders with wood and a chisel, how about coming up with a jewelry box in which your girlfriend can keep her pearls and emeralds. Don’t despair if you don’t seem to have an artistic vein in your body. Think of something you are good at. Like if you’re a techie, why don’t you gift your date his/her very own website with the latest interactive features.

In all these ways being creative can help you attract the best of partners on the dating scene. even more importantly, it will help you in holding interest of your object of affection so that things remain unpredictable and thus deeply romantic, which after all, is the only bond which holds two people together in love.
