Oy, oy, oy.
You repeat your headline (and you use the wrong form of too) and if that isn't torture enough, you repeat all of your interests.
I will give you credit for paragraphing, that's a start.
Use one for expanding on your interests. Meaning that tell us something new. If you have to tell us again that you like fishing, at least tell it in a new way. Make me want to fish. Ok, so picture two is enough to turn me off of fishing forever.  You know what I mean. Don't just relay the same information again.
You also resort to using one-word descriptions of yourself...please, don't. Take the time to think about your best characteristic and tell us why we should date you based on that. If you say you're honest...explain how you are honest.
What are you looking for? What qualities in a woman turn you on? | |

Oh, your profile needs no changes.  I fell in love with you already, just so you know.
Great job.
(Btw, I didn't really fall in love with you...but you do have an awesome profile.) | |

I'll admit, I wasn't too impressed with your headline and thought, "Here we go..."
I was wrong. It was an absolute delight to read.
Only thing that I would change is your preferences, unless you've been getting a lot of mail from people that are not fitting your criteria. I'd just lose the preferences completely because trust me, most people aren't going to read it anyway. | |

Ugh, please lose the line about what other people told you. My grandmother once said I had a big chest...doesn't mean I do.
You need to add paragraphs. One for your interests, one for what you bring to a relationship, and the third for what you are looking for in a relationship.
You have too many restrictions on your profile. Some make sense, that you're not looking for an IE. But then you don't want those who are looking for short term, ect. People sometimes don't know what they want so they choose anything. | |

And thank you for your time.

It's patience, not patients.
I'm a firm believe in not fixing what isn't broken, so that's about the only change that I would make.
Oh, I might add some interests. The proper way to do them is: interest, interest, interest. Of course, fill in your actual interests instead of just interest.
You may want to add paragraphing, it's easier on the eye.
But overall, I really like your profile. Short, sweet, and to the point. | |

I can't see any glaring problems with your profile. You spelled everything correctly, you've done a good job of explaining everything.
Good profile.  | |

I don't think you come off sounding like a pompous person.
I think a lot of people get stuck on scintillating. 
It isn't a word that is used every day and a lot of people, self included, don't have a clue what it means, how to spell it, or pronounce it.
Is it possible for you to use another smaller word that means the same thing that people will understand?
Because I wouldn't contact you. And for that exact reason. So if it is important, leave it. But realize that it will limit your audience. | |

The only thing that confused me is that you say in your first date that you're only looking for friends...but you don't really specify it through your profile. Honestly, I was kind of shocked after reading your profile that you are only looking for friends...because it certainly reads like you are looking for someone. Can you shed some light into this for me? | |

Hmm. Just want to let you know that you may have a little bit of a wait if you're waiting for the person of your dreams and you're just 18.
Not having a picture up will definitely hurt you. People will simply overlook you based on that. And if you don't have a picture...then your profile had better make up the slack. Yours didn't really do anything for me.
I wonder if looking for long-term at 18 is too much to ask. Most people your age are just starting college and while long term does exist at that age...there's a lot of people who would rather just have fun. I'd change what you are looking for to dating or friends and see what happens from there.
What are you looking for? You don't really describe what you're like in a relationship...what things you enjoy doing...or what kind of person you are looking for. | |

The second picture is good, with the way the background is.
I'd get a better picture for your main picture though. You can't see you hardly at all.
What kinds of things do you bring to a relationship? What is it that you are looking for in a woman?
You also need to add more interests to show versatility. | |

your review made me smile  <---- see ?
What your doing on this forum is amazing and very generous of you. And with traits you possess which are apparent simply through your kind acts, I know you will find a perfect match if you haven't already. And to everyone else, good luck, don't lose hope, and stay positive! | |

Posted: 3/13/2007 9:40:34 AM | | I would like to have that someone special in my life. But.... I had to delet the last profile I had because I was actually threatend by someone that said he saw my profile on this site. So I thought this time, I would put just looking for friends. He has me afraid of going out on a date. | |
