| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/7/2011 11:01:24 PM | | If I delete everything someone says to delete my profile will hardly exist is pretty much my reason. I've already deleted over half my original profile. | |
|
| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/7/2011 11:05:47 PM | | I really do not see a problem with your profile (since you updated things) Your a attractive man and you seem nice and good person. | |

| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/7/2011 11:30:16 PM | Maybe your problem is low self esteam? (My spelling sucks sometimes)
If you look towards the negitive side of things, and never have a positive side you'll never be able find happy'ness.
Again no harm meant. | |

| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/8/2011 8:22:58 AM | | Esteem,and no,that is'nt usual;ly a problem for me.But I'm self aware enough to know I'm not winning any GQ coverpages. So I'm more or less trying to improve the quality and content of my profile.Then later I'll add better pics. | |

| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/8/2011 9:52:06 AM | Okay, it seems like you have made some real progress in your profile. Here are a few additional tips:
First, be sincere.
Second, break your profile into paragraphs and proof it for proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation. There are a lot of commas without spaces after them, and that makes it difficult to read.
Being self-motivated is great, but is there really so much about yourself that you don't care for that you feel you need to change something every year?
Okay, random tattoos of celebrities? Is that something you really do, or are you trying to be funny? Also, sitting in your room to watch a movie vs watching a movie at home...do you see the difference? Kids sit in their room, adults watch at home.
I love that you were in the military, and I think you for your service. So, did you not date for those 9 years, or are you recently out of a relationship?
And finally, you say...lemme fill ya in on what I'm here for. Is this typically how you speak? If so, leave it in. If not, consider revising. Just know that a mature person might talk this way when joking with friends, but it isn't a good idea when trying to make a positive first impression. Follow up with actually filling someone in on the reason you are here -- are looking for woman who loves outdoor activities (hiking, skiing, swimming, etc.), and do you want to settle down and raise a family?
Write your profile in a word processing program (like Word), run spell check and read it to yourself out loud. Is what you hear what you intend so say?
Good luck! | |

| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/8/2011 10:07:10 AM | I'm always sincere,I hate inefficency so wasting my time is not something I like doing.
I took care of the commas and as far as spelling and grammar I'm fairly certain I've polished it to perfection now.
I change things that honestly everyone should be willing to change. One year I made it my goal to quit smoking, which I did. Another year I made a concious effort to become a nicer person, since I had begun to realize I had become rather nasty towards others. My self improvement is really just about me becoming a better person, I know I'll never be perfect but I do strive for it.
The random tattoos thing was a joke, I'm random like that so I figured a "joke" like that fits in with my style of humor. I have not and do not plan on getting any random tattoos,especially of celebrities.
I did not date while I was in the service for a few reasons. I spent over 3.5 years overseas so dating during those years was out the window for me and quite honestly I was a bit wary after seeing numerous men come back home expecting their wives to be there and reality left them with an empty house and bank account. So I was a bit...worried about possibly giving that much of myself up. I'm over that fear now though.
I took the "Lemme fill ya in on why I'm here" line out and replaced it with my "requirements", it was really just a space saver for me. | |

|
| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/8/2011 9:14:19 PM | better pic?
and no,I'm not going to leave, honest criticism can only help me be better. I spent the last 11 years in the army so I'm not afraid to get my feeling hurt a little if it helps me. | |

| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/14/2011 9:03:23 PM | take all the negative references out i.e: remove the very first line, and remove the line that contains "don't want drama", etc.
about what you want; i wouldn't put physical attributes to what you are looking for, it comes off as arrogant to say you only like a certain race, etc. and besides, you can weed out who you don't like as you move forward.
GL! | |

| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/14/2011 9:13:46 PM | | The first line is actually a joke...and as far as the physical attributes thing,sorry but I'm just sick of deleting messages from the wrong type of women(for me). There's nothing arrogant about it, I'm just being honest and helping certain people avoid wasting their time. | |

| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/14/2011 9:20:29 PM | | oh and the reason why i said you may come off as arrogant, is bc some men like to date asian and latinas bc it is considered a fetish. also bc some ppl are "collectors" of exotic things if you know what im saying. | |
|

| Profile review..obviously I need one. Posted: 8/14/2011 10:42:06 PM | hmmm,I don't see how asians and latin women are considered "exotic" and certainly don't see how they are "fetish".They are women, plain and simply.But,I did ask for adivce,so I'll edit once again and see what the result is, I thank everyone that took the time to help with some adivce,you guys(gals too) are swell | |
