Are you looking for tips for online dating? Don't think too hard. What you need is to understand a little bit about human psychology and to maintain great self-control over your mouth (or in this case, your keyboard). We're going to give you the best and worst tips for creating your online dating profile on some of the best dating sites.

First, focus on being positive, approachable and always smiling. Avoid negativity as much as possible. Imagine that you're going into a party and are ready to mingle. Bad advice? Start telling them your sob story, your exes and all that TMI you like to tell your regular friends. That's really attractive.

Second in our tips for online dating and how to create good profiles is to keep the profile concise and yet passionate. You don't have to be emotional but avoid being overly logical or dry. Be careful about using too many adjectives. Not just because we hate reading big words, but also because trying to convince someone that you're "honest, caring, good looking, funny" is just lame. Show who you are! Don't freak out and rant about what a good person you are how everyone else is a cheating skank (or man-ho). People see through this and know, instantly, that you have serious issues.

Third in our tips for online dating on profiles is to accentuate the humor. (Sorry for that big verb there) Be funny and be uninhibited. However, don't try too hard. Do not rehearse pick up lines. Do not tell dirty jokes. It doesn't feel real. Avoid all lying and dishonest implications. Why bother telling someone you're rich if you're not? (Hint: she won't even sleep with you until you buy a $300 meal, which you'd have to be rich to afford)

Fourth in our tips for online dating is to treat your ad like an advertisement. Bad advice? Treat your profile like a diary, or worse yet, a therapist session. Talk about every mundane detail. Talk about how ill you feel, or how unfair life is. Use lots of "frown" faces. Tell everybody your longing for a family and for children. Tell everyone how much you hate your father and yada yada.

No, our tips for online dating suggest that you should try to "sell" yourself by focusing on the good stuff. Think of your profile description as a 30-second movie ad starring yourself. Don't give away too much…just enough to make them buy a ticket.
