You have single picture of bad quality, your spelling is terrible, your grammar is very weak, you added a picture and did not remove text about adding it, and your first date is copout. There are more issues, but that should get you started.
Check profile tips (http://forums.plentyoffish.com/datingPosts1262627.aspx), spell check your profile and messages and you should have better luck. | |

Posted: 5/20/2008 12:40:02 PM | Did you type your profile from your mobile?! Or wut iz up wiv all d txt tuk? I’ll warn you now women your age are generally looking for men my age. By using this poor grammar and complete disregard for the English language you have gone ahead and ostracized yourself even further. Now add the atrocity that is your handle, and you are virtually fooked my friend. If I see a girl who’s name has sexy or hotty or 69 in it I’m not even looking at the profile generally. If it’s my loss well then so be it.
It’s hard to tell what you look like because your sole picture was taken with one of those awful webcams. Do yourself a favour and run out and take a bunch of clear shots and post them before anyone sees your profile and writes you off based on what they’ve seen so far.
Why list Prefer Not To Say under Do You Want Children? There are plenty of options, and Undecided/Open is a fairly good nondescript if you can’t make up your mind or aren’t interested in talking about it. Prefer Not To Say virtually means NO in this case, in which people would respect honesty more here.
You need about a dozen or so interests that aren’t sentences and that can be highlighted and therefore searchable. Separate each interest with a comma and then a space before the next one. Try to include a few unisex interests as well that’ll catch a woman’s eye.
As for the About Me section you need to go and read the Profile Writing Tips here. Even casting the text talk aside it needs some serious help. And for a first date you should never say things like “whatever you want”. You say if she can’t decide then you can think of something fun and enjoyable. Why not do that now, and give her something to compare you with. She’s going to put you up against all the other men she’s looking at at the moment. You need to stand off the page and make her say “YES! HE’S THE ONE!”
Go back to the drawing board and come tell us when you are ready for a review. | |

Posted: 5/20/2008 6:39:59 PM | It’s possible that you are attractive, but no one can tell with the picture you have posted. Yev and Deuce are on the money warning you about the text speak and the spelling. Most women will forgive some spelling errors, but between them and the text speak – boring and hard to read. You have some great things to say about yourself – make it clear. Clean this up and get a better picture of yourself and you should do better.
Good luck!
"what are you like Yev? Nice pic ya sexy minx" Looks like you got yourself an admirer.  | |

CAN ANYONE TELL ME OR GIVE ME SOME ADVICE WHY OR WHAT I MUST BE DOING WRONG.
Message 2 pretty much covered it. And 3. And "Gandalf the White's" comments. And thebugisback's comments. Oh, and please learn to deploy condoms properly. That is vital.
Not just "one time -- EVERY TIME!" | |

Posted: 5/20/2008 6:59:48 PM | Suggestions given by all of the other reviewer is on point.
You definately need more pictures, you can have up to 8 and they would be to your advantage. I think you might me quite attractive, but you see I can't really tell, the picture you have is to dark. Improve on this area.
The interest section needs to be filled out properly. The information provided here shows up in search criteria, so it is to your benefit.
The about me section needs to include more information. If you write the positive personality traits that you have as a man and list the qualities you are searching for in a woman, we will be glad to help you put it into proper format. Fill this out better, we'll get it right for you ; )
Go ahead and think of something special for a first date. Use your imagination to make it interesting so the woman reading it *wants* to go on this date with you.
Good luck and remember to post back on this same thread with your changes. | |

Posted: 5/21/2008 11:54:59 AM | Alright, we are moving in the right direction now. The headline is lame now though. Don’t use nice girl/guy, or looking/seeking/wanting/searching/needing/and definitely not longing in conjunction with a woman in that line. Looking for a place to unwind, maybe. Looking for a woman, nope.
Your interests are definitely better but you’ve got a few scary ones in there. Being in love isn’t really an interest and will make many women cringe at the sight of it here. I think we all want to be in love at some point in our lives. I’m not sure how you got most of those to highlight, as I can’t believe someone else made the same mistakes of writing those same sentences into their profile. They were probably shocked when they opened their profile yesterday only to find out all their unique, unlinked interests were suddenly linked and not so unique anymore! LOL The going out with my mates drinking will likely paint you with the ugly brush as well, so you may want to tone that back, unless drinking is a major part of your life and then you should include it so you don’t create bad mystery here when they meet you.
Your first date section, albeit a tad awkward but that might just be the language barrier, is REALLY good now for a 21 year-old lad. Good job! Nice turn.
I’d consider putting your preferences for the woman into paragraph form. You’ve got two different formats and it is hard to read like that. And also it’s not usually good form to ask someone to send you a message. Let your profile do the talking for you.
Keep plugging away! It’s definitely an improvement, but can’t stress the importance of getting those new pictures up. | |
