Read Jon and Sallys dating profiles below. Do you think they are compatible? Why? Why not? Jon, 26 years old, Edinburgh. I m a hard-working medical student from Aberdeen in Scotland. I go to the gym four times a week so I m quite well-built. I do a lot of voluntary work and I m training to be a doctor. Turn-ons I m crazy about blonde-haired, blue-eyed women, I find them really attractive. I like women who are open-minded because I love travelling and trying new experiences. Turn-offs I really don t like selfish people, with some people it s all me, me, me and I can t stand that. Another big turn-off for me is narrow-minded people, there are so many wonderful places to visit and people to meet in the world and I can t wait to get started. Sally, 25 years old, York. I m a fun-loving advertising executive from York in northern England. My job is well-paid but quite stressful so I like to have a good time at the weekends. I also like to do sport and help out at the local children s hospital once a month. Turn-ons I m into dark-haired mysterious men, but the most important thing for me is that they are kind-hearted, adventurous and have a good sense of humour. I read a lot and like having a good debate so I m looking for someone who is well- educated. Turn-offs The biggest turn-off for me is big-headed people, I can t bear people who think they are better than other people. I also don t like bad-tempered people, I m an optimist and I always try to see things in a positive way.
