Not bad, just need more interests and specifics and tell more of yourself in the "About me" section. There is very little there.
Pic is good dude! Wouldn't hurt to find a few more, just for kicks. | |

Posted: 6/17/2005 1:37:44 PM | Welp, time for more reviews!!
Up next on the dance floor: butterflygal_22
Your headline, "fishing in the dark", kinda weird, but original enough. Go with it. Just try to remember, 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 someones profile.
About your picture.... it's a snoozer. Do ya have any that show you atleast conscious? ha ha. Please try to find something better!
"Dating Interests"
Not too bad, although I'd suggest being more specific in a few of the things listed, such as "music", "Sports", and "Camping". Too broad and vague. Unless you want people to assume some things aboutcha?
"About me"
Well, up to this point you had a few nips and tucks needed.
The first sentence is the most important. Start it negative in any way, and it's a turn off for those you seek.
And you wrote, "I want someone real, no head games or bullsh!t"
Do ya really think those who are like that are going to avoid you JUST because you said so? Oh lady, get a friggin reality check!
But then you go on....
"NO guys who are in open relationships, NO couples looking for a female, NO stalkers, NO guys looking to leave their wives, and definitely NO guys just looking for sex. However, if you fall under any of these catergories *with exception to the stalkers* and looking for a FRIEND..then cool I’m game"
So why ya even bother wasting folks time if the very first thing you type out is a bunch of negative hooey. It makes you look bad at worst and naive at best. Avoid listing who you DONT want or what you dont want. "I don't want liars, or those who play games" or to that effect.
Do you rreeaaallllyyy believe those people will not respond to you just because you said so?
I like your second paragraph MUCH MUCH better and suggest you start with that!
As for your "First Date", with all due respect,
Us guys really do appreciate you writing in the "first date" section of your profile how you'd leave it up to us guys or just be vague and general like you were, but you know, it really helps us out a lot if you give us a clue what you might consider. You see, it would be dreadful for all involved if you were the type who expected a nice dinner and maybe some dancing, but we took you skydiving instead because all you said was "whatever he wants" or "up for anything".
That may make for a bad first date especially for someone who is terrified of heights. ha ha.
So all I am saying here is help us out just a bit. Give us a direction in which to go. Clue us in on what you would really like to do on the first date. We'll take it from there, I think we'll be able to handle things from that point!
Ok, so there ya have it. My points and helpful hints. | |

Your turn!!
I am a little confused here. Your headline reads, "Just Looking...... " yet you put "Long term" for the type of relationship you are looking for. So whats the deal here???
If you are "just looking", perhaps folks wont take ya serious. In turn, little response you will get, if any. A note about your headline, Your headline is designed to catch peoples attention.
Its a snoozer!! Just being honest here.
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 someones profile.
As for your pics, not too shabby. They are Keepers, but it wouldn't hurt ya to find one more, maybe one with a little close-up of ya. And with a smile (the ladies dig guys who smile!)
"Dating Interests"
Needs more, and more specifics (what exactly about camping do you like? Is that all you like to do??)
"About me",
kinda broken some and doesn't make a lot of sense.
"Well to start off I'm a Colorado native. A little about me,"
dude, one or the other. Personally I perfer.....
"A little about me, I am from Colorado, born and raised..... etc etc"
Then you wrote... "I am a happy responsible person that is easy to party & get along with"
Say whut?? You are? Sounds weird how ya put it.
What about something like:
"I am a responsible, laid back man who gets along with most everyone. I have fun, going out to party at the local ________ (fill in the blank). And I am happy-go-lucky, "glass is half full" kind of guy who tries to have fun at whatever I do."
The put in the rest of this section, which is just fine!
"First date"
"Dinner, Drinks, Spontaneity!" | |

"Searching for you"
Nope, thats just not gonna do well.
You tried, admirable as it is. But it just doesn't cut it dude.
Your headline is designed to catch peoples attention.
None of this boring stuff you have now. Its a snoozer!! 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 someones profile.
Your pictures,
Alrighty now, you have some good solid pics! Close enough to the camera, well lit and hey ladies.... he is SMILING!!
(The chicks dig that ya know!) Good work with the pic selection!
Ok, on with the "Dating Interests".
Sorry bud, your list is well and all. But too vague.
"Sports". Well? What about 'em? There are a lot to choose from, ya know? lol
"Music". Yeah? What about it? There is a broad range of genres in music ya know. Can ya narrow it down some???
Just be a little more specific in some of your interests, and maybe add a few more. Ya can never have too many interests listed!
"About me"
LOSE " I dont play games and if thats what you want dont respond"
As if anyone will listen or believe. Dont waste your time with that, ok?
In this section, it 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.
Right now, you have more about who you seek and very little about you. No one will have a clue as to what you're about much less find something they may have in common with you and to be motivated to send you an e-mail.
MORE ABOUT YOU, less about who you seek.
"First Date"
:::Sssccrrreeeccchhhhhhh: Stop the car!
no no no, never ever write "all depend on the person and the situation".
Too tentative which equals weak.
All you guys out there, listen up!
Dudes, guys and gents. Here's the deal. Whether we like it or hate it, this is where we can either seal the deal or seal our fate.
We HAVE to take charge here, and indicate what we would like to do on the first date. We have to take control, it is expected. None of this "maybe", or "might" stuff, no no. Don't be tentative. And don't write "whatever the lady would like" or "Depends on the person and the situation" or something to that effect. No no.
Oh sure, sweet thought and nice gesture sure. But guys, let's have a contingency plan at the very least. Because odds are she will be expecting you to take control and will invariably say "I don't know, what would you like to do?"
Save time and save face here! Take control, make the call!
Just don't go writing "sex" or some BS like that. First date mentality! Let's keep it gentlemanly, ya know?
Ok, so thats it for now. Have fun with it. Not too terrible of a profile, ok? Definite good points, especially the pics. I am really surprised you dont have chicks e-mailing ya already! lol,
you sure you dont have 'em lined up around the block? Got a ton of e-mails?

I was going to review your profile, but dang. It is just eatin' up with attitude and some negative vibes. I think I'll wait until tomorrow to tackle that one! | |

Posted: 6/21/2005 6:53:29 AM | K "deary", here goes my schpel........
Your headline, "so what is really going on here?" I can think of more creative and interesting rhetorical questions to ask in order to catch peoples attention. Give it a go. I suspect you are hiding. Hiding that zany wit and massive amounts of creativity!!
About your pics. Your primary pic seems to suggest you are less than happy at that moment. What? No smile? How dare thee!! lol
Personally, I like the last two pics you have. So I have to suggest have one of those as your primary until you can get a better pic of yourself with that ultranice smile (and no one else in the pics)!!
"Dating Interests"
Eh, you have some original stuff in there, but then you put "understanding human nature", "discovering new inspirations"
Well, the latter isn't bad at all really.
Put more interests in there, it's a bit scant. The more interests you put, the more folks will see and realize a commonality between you and them and thusly, so pours in the e-mails.
Your "about me" section, well I am sorry but it is just plain mucky!!
Smacks me over the head with attitude, impatience and a jaded outlook. If that is really how you think of yourself, good job. Otherwise, CHANGE IT!
You must be way more positive and speak more of yourself and less of what you dont seek and definitely less about what you think of yourself and others.
"First Date", well why ya bother with the negative soup ya got cooling in the "about me" section?
I usually suggest to folks to just keep it simple, direct and specific. Us guys need all the hints and tips we can get for a first date!!
So there ya go. All my thoughts about your profile. | |

| RobKT Review
Posted: 6/21/2005 7:02:07 AM | Ok Rob my man, Your turn!
"Looking for interesting people "
Well guess what? Who isn't. Dude, here is your chance to catch peoples attention, to catch their eye and reel 'em in to get 'em to read more about you. And THIS is the best you came up with? No no, I don't believe it for a sec. And a young, college kid such as yourself? Oh Please!!
Come on now, get those creative juices fired up. Move that funny bone up a notch!! Gte original and creative, funny and unique!!
Your pic, its actually a fairly decent one. Good smile (the chicks dig that ya know) and good exposure. Wouldn't hurt ya to add a couple more though.
"Dating Interests"
Well, to be blunt, they suck.
You have 3 interests listed, which suggests to me you are one boring, stale cookie! And again, I find that difficult to believe.You're 23, how can you be that bland so early in life? lol
"Music", well, what about it? What kinds of music? You like listening to it or playing it or writing it?
"Talking", WTF are you thinking with this? You like to talk? Or listen to yourself talk? Talk about what????
My point here is SPECIFICS. Be specific or otherwise people will pass you over!
And put more interests in here. I usually suggest people aim for about 8 or 10. The more you list, the better the chance someone will have a similar interest and the e-mails will flow!!
"About me"
More about you, your general attitude and spin on things. Let loose here, let 'er rip! Show that sense of humor of yours, or perhaps that hidden writer, or that tortured soul.
"First Date"
Keep it simple, direct and to the point. But in yoru case, what you wrote is pretty good. So I'd keep it on the contengency that your "about me" section is expanded!! | |

| undercover blonde Review
Posted: 6/21/2005 7:11:40 AM | hhhmmmm, "unique looking for same"
Good and semi-original headline.
My only problem with this is nowhere in your profile do you go further and explain how you are unique (well, maybe with exception to your being a "Pagan").
Your pictures, I absolutely liked the 5th one best, followed by your primary and the 4th. The other two are a bit dark or too distant and wouldn't hurt to lose 'em. But again, I like the 5th, 1st and 4th the absolute best! Nice smile too.
"Interests"
I like your interests, but wouldn't hurt to add a few more things.
Also, try to be a little more specific with regards to some of your interests, like Music. What kind of music? Do you know how many genres there are out "there"?? lol
And laughing, what makes you laugh??
"About me",
Lose the "I am single 38 year old female" routine. You are only repeating yourself.
Lose this too "No, I am not a blonde, but I can be a bit of a ditz (no offense to blondes anywhere, I gave birth to 3 of them, just being honest about myself here!)"
Really makes no sense and doesn't seem to belong here. You give no example of how you figure you have your blonde moments. Best saved for a later e-mail, me thinks!
I like this section but feel you could put just a little more about you, or maybe your general outlook on life and your senses about you. Maybe even expand on an interest or two.
"First Date"
Ah yes, the forever tired "Depends on the person.."
Please. Listen up ladies. As I have explained in previous posts, we guys really do appreciate you writing in the "first date" section of your profile how you'd leave it up to us guys or maybe even put "whatever" or "Depends on the person.." in this section but you know, it really helps us out a lot if you give us a clue what you might consider. You see, it would be dreadful for all involved if you were the type who expected a nice dinner and maybe some dancing, but we took you skydiving instead because all you said was "whatever he wants".
That may make for a bad first date especially for someone who is terrified of heights. ha ha.
So all I am saying here is help us out just a bit. Give us a direction in which to go. Clue us in on what you would really like to do on the first date. We'll take it from there, I think we'll be able to handle things from that point!
Ok, thats it. See? That wasn't too painful was it? Consider yourself "done" ;o) | |

Posted: 6/21/2005 7:16:05 AM | SlideMeaBrew
You went and revamped again? How cool is this?!!
I like the SN, definitely a keeper.
The headline, Lob off "if She Exists", really.
Good pics, good interests (Dayum dude!! ha ha)
I am not sure if I get the "about me" section, but I can be a denseoid at times. ha ha.
It just seems a bit choppy and non-sensical to me. But that just might be me. I am sure some of the ladies here, reading this review, will do me a nice favor and check out your profile and tell me I am a loon or not.
To everyone else, hey, if I have skipped reviewing anyone prior to this guys request, gimme a holler and I'll make it a priority!! | |
