Since re-activating my Match.com account last week, I have sent out emails to 10 different women within 30 miles of my place, and so far I am batting zero! So, I thought I would have some more fun with this, and had a harebrained idea to use my network of Facebook and Twitter friends (around 1,000) to help me Crowdsource my Match.com profile as a social experiment.
I am asking you to take a stab and re-write my profile in any way you see fit. I will post all re-writes on this blog, choose some to try out as my profile, and post my results so we can all see how well this worked. Best re-writes get double dates (with me and my date) at restaurants of your choice :-)
You can find my current profile here :
The parts of the profile that you need to re-write are "About me and who I'm looking for" and/or the tagline (the blurb below my username).
Email your re-write or any questions to my address dshapiro at veoh dot com. For subject line, please use "Match Re-Write".
Please spread this request for help to your network of friends, as I need all the help I can get ;-)
Thanks,
Dmitry

I have a better idea. Let's do a casting call for someone to "play your wife" in a scene.
You'll get to meet a number of women who meet the call criteria and actually see what they are like at that advanced phase of a relationship.
(Should I also mention we'll have a hit web series.)
Not a half bad idea Rob :-)
Wasn't there a movie about someone doing that and then wind up one foot less? ... Not that the scenario is likely, but that was the first thing that occurred to me.
Great idea! I can help - I've used Match a ton, and while I haven't found the right girl, I certainly get responses.
One, I'd have more conversation pieces in your photos.
Two, try writing the "About Me" about your perfect match - in a positive tone. Everyone *loves* to hear about themselves, especially when it's positive.
Finally, when writing a message to a woman, go for the one-line hook!
