You are a Christian and you feel lonely, right?

And you are dying to connect with your future husband or wife, right?

And so you have decided to set up a profile on a single Christian dating blog or website.

However, you don’t know how to set up your profile to increaser the chances of attracting a lover, right?

Just relax! This post will help you do just that!

In this article, I will show you some things you can do to ensure that you increase the chances of connecting with a brother or sister in Christ on a Christian dating blog or website.

Ready? Then keep on reading…

Show to prospective partners that you care a lot about the LORD by displaying a photo in which

• you are praying in church;
• reading your Bible;
• involved in evangelism (sharing tracts or Bibles);
• singing praises to God;
• worshipping the LORD;
• doing charity work with other Christians; or
• preaching and other Christian activities.

You may be asking yourself, “Why should I do this?”

1. When you let other Christians who visit the blog know that you love spending time in the presence of brothers and sisters in the LORD, it will tell him or her that you are a sociable and approachable Christian who is likely to become a great friend.
2. It will also tell him or her that you feel comfortable to be around other people. The person may envisage experiencing comfortable and pleasing moments with you and that can stimulate him or her to start a conversation with you.

However, ensure that the picture(s) show your face, and show you smiling, and you will look friendly and welcoming to people who view your profile.

You can capture the imagination of the guy or lady and make him or her feel compelled to read your profile to the end and connect when you grab the person’s attention in the first few lines, even before you introduce yourself.

Here is what you must do:

• Say something startling at the very beginning of your profile, in one or two sentences.
• For example, you may start off your Christian dating blog or website profile by writing something such as, “I need a companion! And you also want a companion! Great! Then let’s not pretend! Let’s connect!”
• You may write something such as, “A boyfriend/girlfriend, anyone?”
• Or you may write, “I need you! You also need me! Do it right now!” or something along those lines.

When you are upfront like that, the person may think to himself/herself, “Wait a minute! This person’s got guts!” You will appear confident and strong, and a focused person who knows what he/she wants from life. That is something every man and woman wants in a partner and it will increase your attractiveness ratings and make someone, out of curiosity to get to know you better, connect with you.

A study published in the journal Personal Relationships suggests that when one writes a lot on his /her dating profile it can increase the chances of getting an online partner.

The study revealed that when people write a lot on their profile on a dating blog or website, it makes them appear to be a person with an enthralling personality. And when the other person feels that you can entertain him/her, they are more likely to hit that” contact” button.

So, avoid writing just 20 words or 30 words and leaving the rest of the space. Write as much as the profile description box allows—make sure you fill that space!

You want the other person to know that you are also spiritually inclined, right?

The best way to do that is to sprinkle Bible verses throughout your profile so that any member of the opposite gender who visits that Christian blog or website will feel a spiritual connection with you.

When the person feels that you both care about the Bible, he or she is more likely to drop you a message—research has shown that people feel attracted to others who share their values.

However, make sure that you do not quote too many Bible verses in the dating profile. Quoting too many Bible verses may make members of the opposite sex think that you are too spiritual. And you know what people think of guys and ladies who appear too spiritual? That’s right! They are boring and don’t know how to have fun.

How many Bible verses should you include in your online Christian dating blog or website profile?

• I recommend that you include at most three verses from God’s word.
• The Songs of Solomon, which talk a lot about love and relationships, is one book you may read to help you get ideas to write something romantic on your profile.

Using certain phrases can increase the likelihood that someone will feel that he/she can have a stable friendship with you.

Phrases such as

• “I feel I am blessed to be alive…”;
• “I try to be balanced in my thinking and the way I view the opinions of others…”;
• “I am easy to get along with…”;
• “I guarantee that you will feel comfortable when you are with me…”;
• “I feel fulfilled in my Christian walk with the LORD” ;
• “I am always reliable and supportive…”;
• “I have a solid relationship with the LORD…” ;
• “I am sure you will enjoy the time you spend with me…”;
• “When you connect with me, you will see that I am very easy going and relatable person ... ”

and other phrases such as these will make you appear to be an emotionally stable, safe and secure person.

You want to enter a relationship with a secure person because you are more likely to have a stable relationship, right? The other person will also be looking out for such a person and knowing you are a satisfied, secure person will make you appear more attractive and welcoming.

How do you feel when a friend sends you a “dry” text—a text that does not show his/her emotional state as he sent you the text? You feel emotionally distant from the person, don’t you?

And how do you feel when someone sends you a text message or a message on your computers with an emoji? Knowing the emotional state of the other person makes you feel closely connected to him or her at that moment, right?

That is how anyone reading your profile will feel about you when you include emojis in your profile. Adding smiling emojis will make prospective partners feel that you are a real guy or lady with feelings. It makes you seem more personal. That can induce a connection which will make him or her like you and drop you a message.

A visitor to a blog or website has the choice to visit as many profiles as he or she likes during the time he or she spends on that blog or website.

So, to make your profile stand out so that a prospective lover will choose to spend more time on your profile and get to know you better, you have to include “stay on this profile tools” one of which is to make your strengths pop out at him/her.

Mention your really attractive and appealing strengths in the first 100 words that you write. And make sure you bold these strengths. The visitor’s eyes will be attracted by these words. Consequently, he or she can get to know your personality in a matter of seconds.

And because you showcase your positives, which may make a good impression on the prospective lover, the person is likely to feel that you are a lovable person. That can induce positive feelings in him/her which may encourage the person to explore your personality further.

Summing it all up, if you want your profile on a Christian dating blog or website to look unique and attractive, remember to:

1. Showcase a picture or pictures in which you are engaging in a Christian activity;
2. Startle the person to show that you have a high self-esteem; and
3. Use phrases that will make prospective partners know that you are a secure person.
