Ok...give it to me straight.

Hi...please check out my profile and let me know what you think. I've been on this site for about two months now with no luck. Do you ladies get so much attention and responses that replying to someone like me is out of the question? I normally have no problem meeting women in the real world, but online I get no responses to my mails and no response to IM requests. Generally when I'm contacting someone here I just send a short message introducing myself and requesting to chat...what's wrong with that? Let's discuss it.

This is not the forum for that discussion. Only things we can discuss are your profile.

To start, I suggest you take a look at the Profile Writing Tips thread at the top of the forum, it's got some great information!

Hi OP, you have some major issues with your profile, I suggest "profile tips" in green, at the top of this page.


Best wishes

I read your profile and still feel I do not know anything about you, other than you are comiing out of a bad relationship. Doesn't give a feel for who you are, what you like, what you do with your time. Also, and I am sorry to say this, I don't care much for your second picture. Have a very surprised look on your face. You might consider taking that one down.

Let's not...

This is the profile review forum and anything other than a request to review your profile will be deleted.

Your headline make you dead in the water; think of something original that will attract attention.

Well -

Straight -

"I could use some female companionship" as a heading..

I don't mind the "Partner in Crime" that you added later down the profile, that at least says equal sharing... The above kind of make me see "lonley" or um, something, lol.

And, Profession- Poker Player?

REAKS - Gambler

I'd be staying away trust me... All my money is gone ... NOOOOO... lol.

Well you asked.

I changed my mind and have changed the main text of my profile. I plan on taking new pics soon and will have those up later, but please take a look at the text and let me know what you think. Thanks.

Well...I'm here because I'm new to the area and don't know anyone. I don't generally like to go out by myself so I decided to give the online thing a try so I hope that answers your question. As far as being self-centered, I believe you are wrong and I didn't come across that way at all. Maybe if u didn't come across as rude.....

It seems you've changed your profile since all of the above comments, so my first read of it is fresh...

I like it. I mean, you're not MY type, you listen to crappy music and ride sport bikes (ew), but since you're not looking for a 6'3" guy, I suppose it's best. :-)

You're main picture is fantastic... great smile. Your other picture makes you look a bit terrified, but in a fun way, so keep it or dump it... your choice. Maybe a few more pictures since you seem to be photogenic.

I also think your headline is a crack up... lease with option to buy.

All in all, a good profile... could be longer, but I'm a guy who ran out of space on my profile, so maybe I write TOO much. hehe


Good Fishing,

James

Well that paints a different picture.

Fun loving, has a mind, mmm... one thing? I had to get to the end where you state, you are free to do what you want now, as when i read you "read" 500 pages a day? I'm thinking that's a whole lot of hours... mmm... does he have time for me?

So, i personally would take out the um amount of um pages....

Heading: - Na we don't want to buy any man... lol.
