From About Dating Online: How to Date Online
January 6th 2009 19:58:01 EST you declare simply without sounding very proud that you have good voice? A pointer that you could bear in mind would be to add something like, friends think that I sing rather well.
There now, you can't feel too bad about something as simple as that. It is as good as saying people think that I sing well, but it is for you to decide whether I have a good voice or not. Similar statements that you can work on and even add are given below.
of people appreciate my cooking.
am no Rembrandt, but I enjoy painting.
like decorating, and many of my friends think that my tastes are not too bad.
So go ahead, if you really have a talent, you might as well as let others know about it, after all a talented person would any way like to be appreciated by a partner.
While we are talking about modesty, there is one question that I want to address right now. It is something that all of us are familiar with. If you have chatted with a stranger with whom you are trying to build a rapport you must have been confronted with the question before. The question is do you look like?'
I have often wondered about the sense of this question. The best answers that I could come up with are
look like a cross between an orangutan and a Tasmanian devilor have my mothers teeth, my fathers nose, my uncle's eyes and my roommates' shoes.
But of course we cannot give such answers which funny though they might sound, might just rub the person in the wrong way. What the person actually means is, you good looking or not?
A very tricky question indeed! How can you answer such a question with out sounding either super modest or extremely vain? The answer to that is not to tell them the answer directly. You can say something like:
am as fresh as peppermint.
look like a bunch of fresh lilies.
have the appeal of a bowl of fresh fruit.
If the person still does not take the hint, then give them a detailed description of ever inch and let he or she decide for himself or herself.
The Braggart Pitfall
Bragging, as we all know, is a major turnoff. So it is best to steer completely clear of it. This is especially true in the case of physical attributes. You might be one hell of a looker, but let the other person decide, remember that what wine is for Peter can turn of to be venom for Paul.
You can make implied statements like, am certainly not a bad looker,or is divided, some people think that I am good looking while others think that I am not.But perhaps the best way of describing yourself would be to add a touch of humor to it.
If you are chubby you could say something like, am round in all the right places. . . I hope. If
