"Younger man's opinion" eh? hhhmmm
Ok, so the pics of you, lose the second (with the dog) and the third (again with a dog and with a friend). Group pics and those at a distance are a waste of space. The one with Mickey is passable I supppose, but you are at a distance still.
Good interests, can you list a couple more?
About your profile,
So the very first sentence you chose to start your profile was negative. This is what best came to your mind first to say? Are you aware what it will suggest to anyone else?
In your profile, put more about you and who you are, likes and such, and wwwaaayyyy less of what you do not want, what you do not like and the such. This whole profile smacks of negativity! Lighten up for Gods sake!!
Here is a thought. Answer this question in your profile, "Why do you like the outdoors?" Answer in more than two sentences and not a hint of negativity. Can ya do it?
Leave the negatives and "dont wants" for later.
Good "first date" statement! | |

Good pics.Lose the last two, as group pics don't cut it. To me it suggests two things.
1) Sure, you get along well with others
2) You are trying too hard to show you get along with others
"Interests"
Fairly good interests but rather generalized. Got anything more specific? What do you do at the beach? Maybe you like to parasail. Movies, what kind? Into old b&w's?
Kinda short profile yes? Need another paragraph or so solely about you.
You think of yourself as a funny (&) easy going kind of guy? Why?
"Open-Minded"? Lose that. WTF?
You enjoy yourself and play hard. How? What do you do? I ain't even going to go into the direction of what some may interpret as "enjoying myself"! ha ha You may wish to rephrase just slightly.
Wouldn't kill ya to do a little spell check too. "i" should normally be "I".
Try to leave off things that would denote a nagative aspect about yourself, or hint at it, such as "It's not to say i'm not affectionate or caring"
Lose that entirely!
You would like a woman who knows themselves? You mean confident and self assured? Good luck with that buddy!
Otherwise, lose that. Good to put in your first contact e-mail. Maybe second e-mail. | |

Posted: 4/26/2005 6:28:07 AM | Make 'em laugh in enjoyment, sure enough to entice them to hit the "reply" button. Not laugh as in disbelief before they hit the "next" button
If I may suggest, try this.....
"Laugh and the world laughs with you...."
Then start your profile with...
"... smile and they'll wonder what you're up to!" | |

What up dude? It is obvious you are of the artistic side and with music.
'Bout your pics. Lose 'em all except the one you have as your main one. Got any more, perhaps of you smiling, or a little closer to the camera and without a musical instrument in your hand?
You have some good interests listed, can you list three more?
Your profile itself:
You have a sense of humor? Prove it. Better yet, uuussseeee it on your profile more. Your profile seems a little stiff and uneasy. You list your likes well, thats good. Definitely!
But seems too scripted. Let loose a joke or something. There is potential here, just word it out some. You like music right? Why? Good
You write music? Why not write a short ditty for your profile?
You like to conversate with people, about what exactly? World events? Fashion? Sports? history? what what what??
Just expand a little on some of those likes.
Your headline, well. I am sure you can come up with something else that exposes your sense of humor, right? Make 'em laugh and they will tune in!
And lastly with regards to the "first date" thing, dude, I feel ya. We are on the same page. Let the lady make the call. Unfortunately, it's not whats expected. We HAVE to make that call for ourselves.
Lose the "would be up to her. There is a lot of nuts out there, so i would leave that entirely with whatever she is comfortable with."
Make the simple call of a nice dinner and conversation. Or something you would like to do. Just putting it off onto her will not be very impressive to most of the ladies.
Why not just put:
"nice dinner and conversation, followed by coffee at an outdoor cafe"
Lose the "walk in the park". A lady on her first contact with you is not going to be stupid enough to go walking in a park alone with a guy she just met. | |

Posted: 4/26/2005 6:44:15 AM | thanks a lot jack mack
my main image is what you call a "normal picture". no airbrushing. no nothing. i found the right spot and just posed for the camera. the rest are studio pictures. but i plan to change them anyway, same goes with my profile. i was just a bit idle that time that's why i didn't write much.
as for your questions, yes, i do get responses.
again, thanks a lot and i hope you'll evaluate my profile again once i've changed it. | |

Guess I shold start with the pic. Lose it!
Can't see your eyes for the shades, unless you have 'da bug eyes like the shades.
Get a better pic, maybe one showing off those eyes you wish to hidfe. Hiding ones eyes would suggest in some light a degree of dishonesty.
Good list of interest. What are "the Clarks" though?
Good generalized interests, do you have any that stand out that you care to list??
You have a certain nice attitude within your e-mail, but I do not think it is good to have the third sentence of your profile, after such a nice invite to sit a spell, that you do not like people who play games.
Have you ever met someone who admitted up front that "yes, yes I do play games!"?
Lose that part.
Personally, after you rnice little greeting, I think you should have your second paragraph as your first.Why? Because it tells about you and what you like. Why start a profile entitled "about me" listing what you do or do not want of others?
Put more of what you are like and what interests you, less of what you do not want. Most people who possess those "dont want" qualities aren't going to be honest up front and tell you. | |

Posted: 4/26/2005 8:13:23 AM | Harperdam,
You got the buggy eyes too? (See a previous message for a profile who dared wear shades in a pic)
Whatcha hiding from with the shades? Lose the pictures, find better ones that show your eyes and in better light.
The fourth pic you have, with an actual smile, would be a a great pic to have as your primary (if weren't for the flippin shades!)
So about your interests:
Outdoor activities, cooking and hanging with friends".
b-o-r-i-n-g and generalized, my friend. You gotta have way more interests than that, come on. think, think!
Define "outdoor activities" better if you need help.
Almost forgot, your reason for being at POF is listed as "Intimate Encounter"
That all? Thats it? A quick lay? Hope that works out for you. You get any responses with that? I'd suggest changing it to anything else, mostly to "dating".
Back to your profile,
Lose the "years young and full of energy". Your outdoorsy likes would suggest a certain amount of energy and enthusiasm.
Watch your spelling (yeah yeah, I am one to talk) and lose the "if your a picky eater and don't like a little spice in your life than I'm not the man for you" stuff. Too negative for a profile. Keep it positive and more about you and less about what you do not want.
"Just looking for new friends"? BS, who you kiddin dude?! ha ha, you wanna score!
But for now, you'll have to settle with the attempts to make new friends and such. The chicks dig the "friends" talk.
The "First date".
Her choice? Nope, lose it. It doesn't wash no matter how much the ladies (most anyway) wanna say about the equality based stuff. A guy has got to take control and make the first date rules. Figure out what you'd like to do on the first date, perhaps dinner and then coffee at your favorite coffee bar or something, I dunno. Just put the idea out there.
You wrote "something out o fthe norm...", hey that might be something. Go with that. Be somewhat specific. Just dont be thinking a walk in the park or go rock climbing or something. ha ha ha. | |

Posted: 4/26/2005 8:26:40 AM | Adventurous one,
ha ha, whew, your profile.... something else I gotta say. Perhaps the quintessential California "dude" is what your profile indicates.
A pot smoking guy seeking an "intimate encounter"? Yeah, the chicks are lining up for you bud.
Change this sh*t, WTF you thinking?
Your pic? Do you have a better pic? I mean, come on. Shaggy with a tee that shows you have no idea? And this is your best? Dude, come on, seriously now. If all you are looking for is a quick lay, there are better ways.
Ok, so on to your interests,
Camping-good (if not standard. 95% of guys profiles has this on it.)
Paintball - original!
snowboarding - original and somewhat obvious
cars- lose it. Although probably true, no need to "brag" that you are a motorhead.
climbing - ok, thats good
Poker - uummm no. Lose it. Put up a few more interests that highlight your outdoor self. And maybe one or two indoor things
You definitely convey in your profile you are busy, dont want a needy clingy chick and do drugs.
How about putting more of thinsg about you and what you do and less of what you don't do or what you don't want. Listing your don'ts only conveys negative things about you. Unyeilding and all that jazz.
First date thought:
Keep it simple.
"go to dinner our first time out & get better aquainted."
Nuff said.Leave the rest of it to future e-mails.
Please find a better pic though, for pity's sake! The shaggy look has got to go! | |

Posted: 4/26/2005 8:46:58 AM | Thanks Jack. Compiling all new material already. And new photos are at the lab. Yea, still a film guy. Way too much invested in gear to replace outright.
First contact e-mail? I'm positive I can assemble something readable. Regards, Happy | |

I knew my profile sucked I just didn't know why. Thx for your help.
I thought us "quintessential California dudes" were popular, guees not. Wrong decade I suppose.
It seem I run into this problem often. I want to be honest in my profile but chances are that's not what's going to get replies. I can clean up my pic, but I'm a jeans and tshirt kinda guy, I don't get dressed up for dates. I'd go play the bar/club game if I wanted to do that.
I don't have to tell em I smoke weed but they are going to find out about it one way or the other, I just figure sooner is better than later.
Interests and first date have been modified, you sure I don't have to add more to the first date section. Check it out for me and throw anymore advice ya got my way. Thx again.
BTW, if you knew how to get a quick lay from a descent looking girl without depleting my bank account, I'd be interested. | |

Posted: 4/26/2005 10:04:10 AM | You want it sideways, straight in, upside down? lol
Well smurfarific,
I like your sense of... ummmm, is that humor? Kinda old ain't it?
Well, I like it somewhat. But thats my own thang.
Your pics, nice pics. They suck, lose 'em!!
Papa Smurf and Smurfette in a revealing position, ok ok, that was a hoot!
Your other pics, everything is cut off. The pictures are awful. Can't get a good look at either your very attractive smiling face or them two puppies of yours!Even your ass shot is half assed. I am sure, beyond a reasonable doubt, you have better pictures to torture and tempt guys.
Nice dating interests, good to know you are not so much in fact looking for someone or someones to hang with as opposed to just be looked at. In Spankie town too... ha ha.
On the flip side of the comedy of which your profile reeks of, all I can suggest is put more of who you really are and such and less of what you do not want, who you aren't looking for. Unless the sum of your parts is equivalent to your pictures and the messages it conveys about you. Otherwise, it's great. Perfect.
Cute "First date" thingy. All in bizarro world of course.
Too bad you are in Washington though. | |
