Blank Canvas

Few things irritate me more than a man who doesn't complete his profile. I call him "The Blank Canvas." Look at this example: 

All I know about this guy is that he likes to drink socially and smoke occasionally. Wow, how descriptive! His summary doesn't help much either. Most of the time, these men claim that they want the singleton to approach them and ask them for all of this information. 

This approach sucks for two reasons. First, it is a waste of time for the singleton if the inquiring singleton actually has standards (like me). Second, a singleton who thinks this approach is bull shit (also like me) won't even bother. If a singleton who thinks the approach is bull shit gets a message from a Blank Canvas, then the singleton will first look at photos, decide if the Canvas is attractive, and may or may not reply. At this point, the paid date site has been reduced to Tinder. 

He's not working for a relationship. He's working for a hook-up. If he can't spend five minutes on his profile giving basic information, then it is a good indication he  won't be willing to put time and effort into a relationship and is looking for a hook-up. For the singleton looking for a hook-up, this guy might be okay, but more likely than not he won't be good for more than five minutes, if that. 

A Blank Canvas is boring, and who wants boring? Part of finding a match is getting to know each other. If one person isn't giving any information, then what's the point?
