Zoosk Success Stories: Congratulations, Catherine from Dunedin, FL
We met March 24, 2011 and we got engaged Sept. 24, 2011. We’re getting married Nov. 24, 2012. Our relationship has moved fast, but finding love online isn’t what we intended. We were just looking at who was out there and things just sparked immediately. I love and trust my fiancé more than anyone. We have been through some very trying times in our lives from deaths in his family to losing my job. We stand strong together. Thank you again Zoosk!
Congratulations, Catherine! Sounds like you both found an amazing connection on Zoosk!

Clean Up Your Profile!
by Huw
There are three stages of love: ‘Soon to be in love’ is first. ‘Recently out of love’ is the last. The only name for the one in the middle is “Double-Rainbow-Awesome, Yeah”. We’d like to help you from the first to the second. But it’s crucial to put your best foot forward.
This is the first of three posts about giving your profile a clean-up job. In this post we’re going to focus purely on content: what you want to say in your profile to help other Zooskers get to know you.
You want to say just enough to sound interesting, enticing and maybe a little sexy, but not so much as to commit the dreaded profile foul of ‘the overshare’! TMI (too much information) can kill a budding relationship like too much sunshine can wilt a young flower.
There are some things you want to say on your profile: you’re fun-loving and love good food. You have eclectic taste in people, decor and clothing and above all you believe in the freedom to express or do whatever you feel needs doing.
Some things are a bit too much: we all have been on a date where the other party talks about their ex, or how much they don’t drink any more, or their sex life. Seriously: some things don’t need to be brought up in the “getting to know you” stage. Nothing stops the “Double-Rainbow-Awesome, Yeah” phase faster than a guilt trip for all members of the opposite sex, or verbal abuse lumped on an unseen third party or a creepy amount of self-sharing. You don’t have to be unnaturally cheerful, but positivity never hurts!
Tell a good story. Describe the perfect date you’ve always imagined. How does your perfect match fit with you? Try not to make “campaign promises”. You’re not trying to “win” here, you’re trying to woo.
There’s a major difference.
In the next post we’ll cover how you say it. And then, third, how to take the best profile pictures! But don’t wait, share YOUR tips for creating the ultimate profile in our comments section!

Zoosk success story: Tanisha and her boyfriend
“A week after I set up my profile on Zoosk I came across my now boyfriend’s profile and sent him a wink and we start talking from there. On our first date it was apparent we were soul mates even the lady at the table next to us commented on what a great couple we made and took our picture. After we talked about our lives we discovered we had been in close proximity most of our lives including living right across the street at one point but never met or saw one another. Thanks Zoosk for making it possible!”
