dad22,

EXCELLENT primary photo my friend. You look incredibly handsome. Unfortunately, I'm not a fan of your screenname. Yes, I know, you love your children and they come first...blah, blah, blah.

This is s singles dating site dude. dad22 does not make you sound spongeworthy!

Course, neither does being separated instead of actually divorced...but that's one of my many pet peeves.

Recommend you clean up your profile by doing a spell check and capitalizing the personal pronoun I.

Good Luck!

Umm Happynature, just some constructive criticism from someone of scientific thought. Saying so many "beliefs" even before a relationship is started, is to a relationship as rat poison is to a mouse. Dead before ya even get to the good part. ANYWAYS, innate psychological responses dictate people who give too much too fast, especially personal information scare off any quality suitors. This is our evolutionary coding called "survival of the fittest".

I do not think you are in any position to give advice.

withallmyhope,

Hmmm....while I understand that you are 29 and trying to show your diversity, I absolutely lost interest in this sweet, dreamy, handsome, intelligent and romantic man when he got to what he called "The fun stuff".

You went from a real grown up with a lot of potential to a juvenile who is play acting as one. Hmmm....

Don't know what to tell you my friend. It was kinda wierd.

Good Luck!

Actually, I had a few pictures and other pertainent information along with the catchy headline. I thought I deactivated my profile since I have met someone that I would like to give a fair shot. I appreciate you taking the time to look and hopefully I won't be back of POF except to look at the forums.

Thank you again

Happynature,
So you're kinda diggin me huh? :) That's very sweet of you, thank you!

Seriously, I've read many of your reviews and think you give great advice, so the fact that you liked it so much tells me I'm on the right track.


WANNA GET MARRIED?

How do you feel about California? :)
Checking out your profile, I obviously need to change my age limits.

bigolbear1962,

if you shaved hell I might marry you

Hahaha, I wish I could say that's the worst offer I have ever received. If I ever let the "female since birth" requirement go though, I'll keep you in mind. Thanks man!

Hi,
I could use a little feedback on my profile. Not sure if I'm fishing with the right bait. Or maybe the presentation of the bait is wrong. LOL. Haven't needed my net yet. Thanks

ohioangeleyes,

Your profile just screams - "My only interest is children, I will never have time for you and if you want to be with me, you'd better conform."

Yikes.

Yes, there are men out there who would be willing to get together with a woman with children, but remember, they need to become attracted to the woman first.

I recommend you tone down the mommy bit and play up the woman bit. Also, please run spell check on your profile befor you resubmit.

Good Luck!

Hey Happy nature!

Thank you very much, Woman! You are providing a much needed service to all of the "profile challenged" among us on pof!

Even when you have negative things to say, it never comes across in a bad way! May you continue your good deeds....

You rock,


very happy to hear your response and kind words.

bigshrek,

I get the 'Shrek' references. I got it with the screenname, got it with the header, got it with the photo even. Unfortunately...when your entire profile was littered with jokes and analogies about Shrek, it got a bit much for me.

If Fiona is out there, and IF she reads your profile then you'll live happily ever after, I'm sure. Just not so sure that the masses will want to wade through the endless tongue-in cheek references and self deprecating barbs. JMHO.

Good Luck!

Wait a minute. I understand staying on POF just for the forums if you've met someone. Truly, I do. Done it myself because the forums can be addicting.

HOWEVER, your profile doesn't need to be tight and enticing to women if you've met someone. I'm very disappointed to learn that you've found someone and are still looking for someone better.

Hi there Happynature,
I already know my photos are rubbish but I'd appreciate it if you'd take a gander at my profile and offer some criticism?

Thanks in advance and please be gentle?

Mark

PS - for someone who extols the virtues of spell checking you sure make a lot of spelling mistakes, just an observation.

featherfoot,

You really do have good stuff in your profile. VERY good stuff. It's just all jumbled together with no breaks in sentences or paragraphs. This is a HUGE turnoff. No one wants to squint and try to read 900 words like that, it's hard on the eyes.

First, take the entire 'About me' section and place into Word. Do a spell check and do a couple of carriage returns in the appropriate places to break up the subject matter.

The only other thing I would recommend is to add one more photo. A close up of your face with a big smile. Women want to see your eyes and your smile. This is important.

Good Luck!
