| Alright, if I'm going to do this, I'm going to do it 100% Posted: 7/5/2008 6:30:11 PM | Which means I'm going to ask. Would someone mind taking a look at my profile and giving me some tips, or hurling some abuse at me?
And I know it's early to ask this, but do people generally just ignore someone if they're not interested? I would certainly appreciate even a short "thanks but no thanks" response.. | |

Any woman who finds small, shy, somewhat geeky, inexperienced men attractive (and these women do exist!) will be all over you! You are geek-sheik personified. You should have no problem finding another like minded female to be awkward and cute with.
Best of luck! | |

Second photo just screams BOY SCOUTS with the tilli hat, I know you mention that you do field work, but because you look young for 24 still it makes you look 12 years old.
It may be just one reason why people are discuraged | |

Or vice versa? Either way, it sounds very awkward; I'd just cut those sentences altogether. I'd say that most POF users have gotten used to the fact that this is an online dating site, so drawing one's attention to it in the very opening of your profile isn't a great move. Also, cut the "whatever"...sounds like you don't care about, well, I'm not sure, but it sounds not very encouraging to an audience.
I like your other paragraphs in general (the computer's on fire comment made me laugh), although I'd break them down into smaller paragraphs to create more whitespace so that people will find them more appealing to read. Also, I'm not sure if I would contrast "shy" with "confident", which is what you seem to be doing in your sentences...because it makes it seem like that when you're shy, you're not confident. Unless that's what you intended to write...? And cut out the part about not wanting drama...most people don't want relationship drama (and if they do, they probably aren't advertising it on their profile!). | |

I would try and get a few more pictures to add on, the ones you have are good but a few more would portray you better and a good facial short for the first pic will do you well considering it is the first thing ladies will see before even clicking on your profile.
Also i would lose the headline and change it to something that will grab peoples attention without being negative.
If saying you are shy is your way of feeling confident when ladies chat to you then i understand though in my opinion it is better to say it via email when you get to know someone better as you just come across as a wuss at the moment to the ladies.
