I am interested in OLD but I would prefer to pick the guys instead of them picking me. It may sound crazy but I just feel more comfortable doing that. So I haven't made a profile. Has anyone else done this?

A man's got to do what a man's got to do.
A woman must do what he can't.

MSYep, I did it when I first started online dating. I think that a woman is likely to have more success with this method than a man will, but even for women I do not recommend it.
The biggest problem with doing it is that a lot of people will assume that the reason you don't have a profile is that you are married or involved (people will assume the same if you don't have a photo on your profile too). Beyond that, it strikes me as a bit unfair to the guy and a waste of time for both of you b/c you not only will start off not knowing if there is real-life chemistry, but you also will not know if your goals and basic desires for a match are aligned. It's like combining the worst of both worlds. Much better that you let the guy see upfront that you two are not compatible based on religion, child issues, smoking/nonsmoking, etc.
