Meeting a potential mate online is the cool thing to do but how do you write a personal ad that will attract the opposite sex? Well, it's all about painting a picture with words.
I'll start with what not to say in a personal ad if you're a guy.
********
Single 37 year old male seeks single female. I am 5'6" tall and weigh 347 lbs. My hair is balding, my teeth are stained yellow from drinking four pots of coffee per day and I dress casually -- rarely sporting more than sweatpants and a spaghetti sauce-stained Pong Rules t-shirt. In my spare time I enjoy attending social events such as Star Trek conventions and playing Magic: The Gathering with pepperoni-faced teenagers. I have my own place and my mom respects it when she comes down to the basement to do the laundry. I am currently between jobs and am holding out for an executive position. I enjoy eating frozen pizzas and sharing grape Kool-Aid with my special lady.

I can guarantee that this particular guy will not be getting a call any time soon but I give him points for being honest.
Now women, you have it far easier. A female seeking romance in the personals could write the following ad and have hundreds of seekers.

See how easy that was? It may not deliver the highest quality man but if you prefer quantity over quality you can save your words.
