How about “I touch people’s lives thru my blog..?” Mysterious and sensitive ang dating…. it should perk up your date’s interest..

I think ‘journalist’ is the closest fit to what we do.

In the context of dating, I like J’s answer though you could come out as “too secretive,” one thing I don’t think girls will appreciate.

Most of the time, giving them my URL works.

Reminds me of the time when I took photos at an entreprenuership event. I mentioned that I was a blogger , that I write in my blog etc. Then the guy says ” Oh you’re a journalist”. Hah, so hard to explain if the person is clueless about the internet

exactly my dillema when filling-up any kind of form that asks for occupation after I’ve turned fulltime at problogging. even more difficult when people ask what you do.

so i ended up putting “freelance internet writer” instead. bahala sila kung ano initindi nila dyan! he he.
but not sexy enough i guess.

I like J’s version HEHEHE it’s sooooo James Bond

If you say you’re a professional blogger, she might think you’re just a professional BUM if she isn’t very tech-savvy LOL.

this is where you LIE. she actually don’t care anyway. its just for conversations sake. trust me on this. But on the other hand this is important to some women so you could say you are a CEO and earn tons of money. that’ll get her attention.
