I havent been on this site for long but would like some help. I'm a nice guy with a few good things to offer. I'm not sure how to convey that with out looking big headed or generic. I'm currently over seas and would like to find a wonderful girl that I could start dating when I get back..(74days and a wake up..not that I'm counting or anything).
I'm in the AirForce Reserve as a Civil Enginner, soon to be Staff Sgt. I have been in the AF for 5 years and this will be my 5th promotion. I'm in College slowly working my way thru a degree in mechanical engineering. I support all of my friends, hate talking down to or about people. I have strong values and moral. I have held 3 jobs at once, on more than one occasion, not because I'm a work acholic but because they all wanted me, and I couldnt say no to friends in need.
My longest relationship was 2 1/2 years with my high school sweetheart. I want my next relationship to be long lasting, donest have to be "the one" but some one that will support me and I can support her for the last few steps out of college and into a career. I easily adjust to new environments and make friends fast but cant seam to find a solid Girl for me. What kind of Baite do I need to get the fish I'm looking for? Thank you for you time and God bless America

You might want to choose a different picture that doesn't show your foot. You may also want to think about putting some interests in your profile. I don't think "anything that doesn't suck" is enough information for someone to see if you have common interests. I'd probably lose the part about the speeding ticket and kind of describe yourself a little more and what you're looking for.

Hope this helps.

Well, it's a little better. I'm not sure how you typed the interests in but if you use commas they will come out a little neater and some will even link to other profiles with the same interests. Take a look at the interests in my profile and compare it with yours. It's just easier to follow them if they're neat. Hope that makes sense.

First off thanks for being there for us and congratulations on that promotion. It took me 3 years in the USAF to reach that rank.

I agree about the photo, can you crop that? The smile is great!

Children – It seems that everyone interprets the prefer not to say as negative so you are better off with open/undecided.

Interests – I must agree with mrwutzizname. You must have developed some interests by now. Besides your comment could be taken another way, to your disadvantage.

I notice that you made some changes while I was typing. In the interest section, if you add a comma after each, they become searchable.


Good luck
Ron

Cropping your foot out of the picture is one thing, cropping the snake out might be more difficult.

My advice is to keep the smile, get a new picture.

I see you made some changes and it looks better. You might want to change the "go fast" interest to just motorcycles, cars. Ron had some really good tips.

Yep, things have changed since I was in (you may never have heard that E4 used to be Airman 1st Class). The highest non-commissioned rank was E7. I was lucky enough to know one of the very first promoted to E8.

I had meant to mention, you say you are working on an ME degree, many people in your target audience will not know what that means. It might be better to list it as BS Mechanical Engineering.

Just read your up-date. Real good, run it through spell check. I see some spelling and grammar errors. Also re-read that last sentence, I think it needs another word or two.

When adding pics you don't need to avoid all that have you in uniform! That is a big part of who you are, and women do love men in uniform! I agree with Ron that your last paragraph needs a few fixes, and spellcheck should take care of the rest.
Good luck

Well there, now you have it. The word from a very good looking lady. Put on that uniform! I was in during Viet Nam. When I walked through an airport in dress uniform, the ladies did look! Some even looked in a positive way. The view of our troops is much more positive now. Wear it with pride!!!
