angelslaugh,

We're already two months into the new year. I think its time for a new photo, don't you? Something like the primary photo, but with better lighting and not blurry.

Your occupation (though a mystery) and your list of interests are ...interesting, but you leave us hanging by not telling more about yourself in the 'About me' section. The note about not having anything to talk about is a cop-out. Give us at least one more paragraph please.

GREAT testimonials from your friends. Excellent addition.

Good Luck!

socaleric,

You and your profile are quite charming. I wouldn't change a thing.

Five e-mails was a good start, but let's get aggressive. Send out 10 e-mails right now to ten females that interest you. Then tomorrow, send out ten more. Then the following day, ten more. The rationale is that for every ten e-mails you send out...you are guaranteed at least ONE decent reply. So double that buy doing it again and again.

YOU, my friend are the 'catch of the day'. We just need to get you in more shallow water so the anglers can see you. PLEASE report back and let me know how you do. I just KNOW that you are going to find her...hang in there.

Good Luck!

Thank you, just what I needed :) . I removed some of that stuff and will improve on it.


Glad I could help. Look forward to the final draft, or at least the evolving draft.

Thanks so much for the repore. Took another crack at the profile and it came out alright. I guess. Not the easiest thing for me to write about me. Some guy's find it easy but I suspect they are probably shoveling it on. Next up is yet another self portrait. That will be fun. Thanks again.

foxxinboxx,



LOL...what a wonderful read. Your photos are awful, but I'm sure you know that and don't give a damn. Your interests blew me away, they not only show diversity but intelligence.

But the 'about me' section...man, that was pure genius. ABSOFREAKINLUTELY genius.

Well done!

Good Luck!

Yes, yes, I do. I'm getting no interest at all. I know the pictures don't help, but I only have few (I've always hated being photographed) and to be honest, they rarely show me in a better light (despite what the testimonial says).
I know it is long, but I tried short. The headline is silly, but I tried serious. I've tried a simple short first date, now I'm trying a fuller, more descriptive one. I've tried with and without a picture.
Can you help me?

adamt24,

You are a very cute guy, but six pictures of you wearing a ball cap is a bit much, don't you think? How about one close up without a hat, wearing a big smile and allowing us to see your eyes?

You look much younger than 21 so you need to be creative about taking shots that give you a little more definition.

The words you wrote, while fine, are the exact opposite of your header - nothing out of the ordinary. Do something to make yourself stand out from the pack. You need to draw attention and I don't mean that you should add 32 emoticons.

Good Luck!

I think my profile is gonna keep anybody from talking to me :(
And I might have come on here a lil too soon, But last year I tryed to break it off and lost all hope .. and so I try again this time I will not loose hope
Got any tips for a shyguy, In person I almost alwase remain silent In the presence of a lady I take a fancy too...but I am working on that
I think my profile needs work ... but I wanna keep it Honest...I dont want someone who is a fake...so try not to do the same

katiebelle4u,

Well my dear...you are stunning. Quite a knockout actually. I love your primary photo. It's what I keep telling everyone they need to post, a nice close up of their face.

Your other photos however, I'm not thrilled with. The shots of you in the little black dress are important because you look hot, have nice legs and obviously want to demonstrate that you are in shape. Since you have a daughter...ask her to take a couple of nice photos of you so you don't have to resort to the camera in the mirror effect.

The other two photos of daughter and daughter with boyfriend - remove. A) No one wants to see your kid and B) no one wants to see your kid's boyfriend and C) She's quite beautiful and distracts from her mother's beauty. Don't compete with your own daughter.

You didn't give us much to go on when listing your interests, but once you started describing yourself in the 'about me' section, I see where spirituality is a predominant force in your life. Now this is not MY cup of tea, but will surely speak to the type of gentleman you are attempting to attract. My question is...do you want to go into it soooo much? If you're fine with it then I am too. Just thought I would ask you to think about it.

The man who is NOT as spiritual as you could be enticed into learning about it. But if he thinks that this is ALL you are about you may never meet him and get the opportunity to introduce him to your higher thinking.

Good Luck!

Pjclews,

You know what I don’t like? When and attractive man tells me in his profile that he’s attractive. I think it’s arrogant and pompous.

Conversely, when a man is not Brad Pitt, I don’t want him telling me that he’s not good looking. I have eyes…let me decide if I find you appealing or not. You are pointing out (what you perceive as) your negatives for me.

The point is that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

So, as you can tell, I would like you to completely rewrite your profile and NOT draw attention to your appearance. You photos show me exactly what you look like and I'm not seeing a bad looking man.

So, now for the photos. I really appreciate the close up and the full body shot but the close up is obviously not your best photo and it’s quite blurry. Could you please take a couple more? And this time, try to put on a smile in at least one of them, ok? It will do a lot towards your appeal.

You did not list any interests and I’m sure that you have some. Please go back to the editor and list at least five things that you are interested in. Be sure to put a comma between each item before you hit save.

I hope this helps and I look forward to seeing what changes you come up with.

Good Luck!

Ah-Ha! You see? That's exactly the response I keep getting!
"Profile's Ok. no problems, now move on"
Okay doesn't make the grade, in real life or on the internet, does it?
Oh well, mediocrity here I come....
Just kidding, thanks Happy and good luck with that spelling thing lol

Secrets_of_love_143,

So many thoughts to share with you. Where to begin? Well, how about sequentially?

Your screenname…does it mean something? If so, it’s lost on me and perhaps on others. Then you jump right into your header and repeat the same words – secrets of love. Why???

Advise you to seriously rethink both.

Your photos. First one is ok, second one is too dark and serves no purpose. Highly recommend that you take about three or four more photos and give us at least one close up of your smiling face without sunglasses.

The ‘about me’ section. I really like the first line that you have bolded…very nice.

But then you go into this whole weird thing about having a bunch of aliases…why? As in why do you have them and why are you talking about it?

I believe that you are revealing WAY too much personal information about yourself. Things like your real name, your place of employment and your job title really should not be here. Talk to a girl on e-mail or telephone before disclosing that.

Finally, run the whole thing through a spell checker. There are way too many errors to point out. Had difficulty reading it.

Good Luck!
Happynature
