Hey there, I'm just wondering if I could get some tips on my profile. I haven't really had any luck on this site so far, but a good portion of that is my fault since i'm reluctant to initiate anything. I guess i'm too used to being rejected and I don't want anymore haha. Just a note: I've been used, dumped and cheated on by quite a few girls over the past few years, which is part of the reason i'm shy - I realize that my profile is lacking in some respect, or i'm saying too much. Pretty much, I don't know. I'm a hopeless romantic, and i'm always the nice guy who comes in last. ugh, i'm even reluctant to post this but what the hell

I think a nice clear close up of your face would be a better choice for a main pic. The biggest question I had with your profile is: What kind of "other relationship" do you want to have? I didn't see it defined anywhere. Until that's more clear, it's hard to tell is what you have will be effective for what you're looking for. A couple of typos -- "hippe chic," and one other I can't find now. If you smoke pot, you shouldn't choose "prefer no to say" for "do you do drugs?" -- people will assume you're a tweaker or a crackhead. I also tried teaching english in China but quit on my third day of teaching haha. I have no idea why you find this funny enough to say "haha." It's not only unfunny, but it paints you in a negative light that no amount of "hahas" or "lols" can cure. I'd leave it out. Cow-tipping is no longer considered hilarious. Neither is dwarf-tossing, in case you were thinking of using that one. Both are considered cruel. Come up with something else.

I suspect that your problems with women come from your negativism, lack of confidence, and lack of social skills. I'm sorry if this sounds critical, but I think you will agree if you look at what you wrote.
