if you are separated, and yet, you put divorced or single, and the woman finds out your are STILL LEGALLY MARRIED, you can kiss her goodbye right then, for the simple fact that you LIED on your profile, and since you already look like you are lying about your age at present, i would suggest you do not follow his foolish advice.....


I can't even properly express just how much I agree with this.

About he divorces/single thing That is.

"what make you think you can give advice to anyone?"
Because like everyone else, I have an opinion. And here in the US, I am free to express said opinion. Now whether anyone wants to take it or not, well, thats entirely up to them now isn't it? Again, it's a free country! I can dispense advice and opinions just as easily as you can, and those who request said opinion or advice is free to take all of it, some of it or absolutely none of it.

Deal with it!

Alrighty now, time for a game of "catch-up" and review some profiles.
But before I go further, to those who want reviews I offer this first and most important suggestion.

READ previous postings, atleast the last four pages. Ya really should!

Why? Because I hate repeating myself and it seems like thats all I have been doing.
So look at a few past posts and get some ideas there first.

@ Thorfinn4more
I think your headline is ok enough, however you may want to come up with a secondary.... just in case! lol
Your pic works well and ya actually smile. The Chicks dig that!
"Dating Interests", not too shabby there! Good work.
"About me", just need a little more aboutcha here

@ teamgreen
Headline not very original. Try again.
Your pictures, your third one is the best, lose the rest.
Dating Interests, you need way more, and way more specifics.

"About me", needs some serious tweaking!

Review hb/2
Posted: 5/30/2005 10:32:53 AM
@ hb/2,
Your headline is sssoooo unoriginal. Come on now, try again and be creative and original!
Your primary picture.... well it sucks. Your headless body is impressive in conveying who you are, unless you want folks to think a particular less than flattering thing about ya. I like your 5th pic the best! Why not use that one and lose the rest?!
"About me" looks a little sparse on things about you. Oh sure, you describe the outside alright, but what about inside? Whats your general attitude, whats your take on things? More of that, less of what you seek or not seek.
"Interests", you have none listed. Guess that means you have absolutely no interests and thusly, not interesting.

@ sweetpntx
Sure thing. Tweak your profile, but also remember. Your profile is only half the work, the other half is your e-mail. Either to someone initially or in response. Thats where the real selling points come in!

@ silosid
Your headline.... try again.
Your pic... ya look like a con just released. Come on guy, got anything a little better lit and maybe with a smile??
"Dating Interests", ya need way more listed and way more specifics.
"About me", need more about you. Read up this thread a few pages and you'll get some really great ideas. Also be sure to look at some folks profiles in this thread as well. Good stuff!

@ BeverlyHills
Tell it like it is eh?
Your headline sucks. It denotes strggles financially. Which in turns means "issues", of which the ladies will shy from. Come up with something way more original.
Your pics, the fourth pic is your best. Lose the rest
"Interests", list way more and more specifics too.
"About me", can it be anymore depressing? Can ya possibly focus more on positive and less on negative. This "feel sorry for myself and for me" tripe has got to go. Come on, got some humor? Got a better, more optimistic view of yourself? How 'bout using it?!
Really need some serious work here if you are serious.

@ Ruby Lips
Interesting headline. I'd keep it may pique guys curiosity!
"Separated" eh? You do realize this will affect how many responses you get? It will help a lot if in the "about me" section, you put how long ya been separated and when the divorce will be final.

"Interests", needs more, and more specifics.
"About me", more about you first off, and what you're about and a general good feel of who you are. Less about who you seek.
"First Date"< I like what you did here. Keep it, definitely! Good job!

@ shyamsha
Your headline, get rid of it. You gotta be more daring, more creative and original.
Your pic, eh, its ok, but whats with the shades? AND indoors? lol, you know why most wear shades indoors, doncha? Got another pic? It might help your case here.
Also, all these "perfer not to say" stuff. Whenever a question is answered this way, it always, ALWAYS is assumed the worst. So basically people will assume "yes" on "married?", "Have children".
"Dating Interests", you need wwaaayyyy more stuff listed and in more detail.
"About me", there is nothing about you. Did you miss the "about ME" part????
There is nothing about you here, Only of what you seek. List more about you and what you're about, less of what you seek.

And lastly, remember. The profile is only half the deal. The other half is your first contact e-mail or response to one. Its gotta be a real seller otherwise you may be shot down without even taking off.

I am unsure what bee flew up your butt, so lemme give you the lowdown.
Opinions are just that. Nothing more, nothing less.
No one has made a claim to be a guru either. Just a person sharing an opinion.

Now I am unsure what country or part of this country you live in, but where i am from, anyone and everyone is free to express an opinion on pretty much anything.
You dont like my opinions, tough sh$t.
I may not like your opinions either. TS to me. Big whoop.

As I stated before too, they have just as much freedom to pay attention to the advice as not to pay attention to it.

Out of curiosity, in your little corner of the world, does a person have to be an expert on something to have an opinion on it?
Does a person have to be a rocket scientist to have an opinion on rockets?
Does one have to be a doctor to have an opinion on ones aches and pains?
Does one have to be in a 30 year marriage to have any opinion on relationships?

So in short, I am dispensing an opinion. Your question, simple or otherwise, has some goofy, stick up your ass, tone to it I do not appreciate. If you want an opinion of your profile, all you have to do is ask nicely, just like everyone else has. You got an opinion, great, let 'er loose. The more the merrier. Even from those with less life experiences, Especially from some 21 year old kid from England such as yourself.

But you wanna get in my perverbial face about expressing an opinion and think I am claiming to be some expert, I'd seriously advise you to step off!

All good suggestions. Will try to do a bit better with my profile. I do appreciate constructive advice. You know I had read all about too much "I" wording and had already changed quite a bit. Now to do a final Tweak! Thanks, Ruby.....

To ruby44
Time for your review…..

”Seeks a spirit-filled man”
I gotta say, I am not too terribly impressed with this headline.
Please consider this: Your headline is designed to catch peoples attention.
Get creative, get crazy! Have fun with it. Try to think of what would catch YOUR eye, to hold your attention enough for you to get to reading further of some ones profile.

Your picture is pretty enough, just need a little extra smile.

“Dating Interests”
Kinda on the lean side. You have just a few things in there and of those, rather general things at that.
For example, you have “Music”. You like rap? How about Electronica? Latino Musica? European New Age? Define Music”!! Specifics wont kill ya, I promise.

In the “About me” section, you spent maybe a total of three sentences describing yourself, and like nine sentences of whom you seek. This section is where you can tie in all in. This is THE place you want to express yourself as to who you are. What your attitude on life is like. Maybe expand some more on your interests too. The first sentence is the most important. Start it negative in any way, and it's a turn off for those you seek.

Remain focused on you and what you are like. Your general attitude, what makes you y-o-u! And don’t focus as much on the guy you seek.

“First Date”
KEEP IT SIMPLE!
“Meet at a coffee shop or a quiet cafe; browse through a book store.” That’s perfect. The rest of the stuff you wrote can be better served later.

Hey Jack.

First, I’d just like to thank you for all the time you devote here. I really appreciate how you “call it like it is”. The Community is fortunate to have you.

When you get a moment, would you please mind giving me some of your thoughts on my profile?

Thank you ever so much in advance, kind Sir.

Before I do my reviews, as always, you must read up on previous reviews. So I suggest you read backwards a few pages.... let's say 5 or 6. You'll get some good info and maybe even a few good ideas if ya care to look at some of the peoples profiles too.

Ok, silosid
(My second attempt to post this)
Your headline, lose it. You can do way better. You wanna attract peoples attention, not blend in with everyone else who has the same headline.
Your pic: Ya look grumpy and disheveled. Find a better pic with better lighting and would it kill ya to smile?
"Dating Interests": Ya need more and be more specific
You have a sense of humor??? Prove it. Better yet, USE IT in this profile. COme on guy, belly up to the bar and give it a go. What do you have to lose?
"About me", very sparse. Needs more about you and what you're about.


CareToBoxOutOfTheRing
Wweeelllll now, what an interesting profile. A boxer eh? Well, thats original!
Your headline, "Lioness looking for a lion": Welp, ya wont find that in every other profile. So thats a keeper!
Your pictures: Pretty good for the most part.
The first is the best, lose the rest. They are unnecessary! Do you have a few others, with perhaps you wearing either your boxing gloves or a smile?
"Marital StatusSeparated"
oohhh, and the bell rings just as a low blow is delievered!
You are separated, so you do realize that this may significantly reduce your responses, right? It would not hurt to put in the "About me" section how long you've been separated and more importantly, when the divorce may be final!

"Dating Interests".... you have only one thing. This would suggest you are boring and have narrow focus. Plus it gives no one reason to find a similar like and e-mail you. No reason at all.
Solution? Put in tons of interests and try to be specific.

"About me", its ok but a little sparse. Kinda lightweight! lol
Fill it in some with more about you and what you're about. Your outlook on things and such.

You have a nice certain tone to your profile so I gotta say its ok, but just needs some tweaks here and there.
