A new study has recently revealed that while dating, online people look for real and humble match rather than flashy profiles.
Researchers at the University of Iowa stated that people who are looking for love online are less apt to trust a person with a flashy profile, preferring instead a potential partner who appears not only successful, but humble and real as well.
The team found most people in their study were drawn to individuals whose profiles were positive but not over-the-top glowing.
More important, however, participants preferred people whose online persona could be clearly traced to a real person.
That means people want details, not broad generalities, especially about where a prospective love interest works and what he or she does for a living.
