Personals Ad - 6 Guidelines to Be Effective

Are you racking your brains to come up with a 'cool' personal ad to attract the sweetie you've been dreaming of? Have lost count of how many times you had to erase the ad you've written? Or are you simply at a loss of ideas to write a proper personal ad?
Well buddies don't worry. Answer is so very simple, I could just put the trick down to 6 easy steps so you'd read them in a minute and surely find yourself equipped with the perfect personal ad in no time. Just follow 'em and see how effective it is!
Identify yourself - The most difficult person to understand…is not your girlfriend or boyfriend. It is your own self! Spend few moments to analyze and understand who you are. Are you a serious type of a person? Go getter? Cheerleader? Understand your own personality and try to express it clearly in your personal ad.
Look at your primary desires - This is very important guys. I've seen many people posting personals just because their friends are do so and it is an 'in thing' to lie on the net and cheat on some unsuspecting soul. Avoid this mistake at all costs. Next time you might be the pray! Instead, identify your true desires and prioritize them. Put down the main and important ones in your personal ad. This will attract matching profiles much faster.
Identify key aspects of your partner - When you know who you are and what your desires are, next question is what you expect from your partner. Many personals I have come across only concentrate and elaborate on 'what they expect from the partner'. I advise you to be straight about what you expect from your partner and be generous. Don't express the idea that you expect too much.
Start with a simple but attractive self description - Once you have clarified what I have explained above…..start writing! Put down an attractive self introduction. (I didn't mean 'smart, out going' lot!) Try to make it sound truthful. Don't overestimate or underestimate yourself.
Add more personality to your copy - Give that living, breathing touch to your personal ad. Add variety and breakaway from the norm! Add spice and the feeling of honesty to it.
Be honest - This will make your ad different and attractive. Your personal ad will stand out from the rest. Let me tell you guys, being truthful from the very beginning makes it very easy if the relationship really grew to a more serious level. Try this and you are sure to win someone as honest as you.
