Posted: 6/28/2009 3:43:18 AM | hi there ladys. Ive been on p.o.f. for about a year now and still havnt meet anyone ive started having a few coversations but they never answer back after the second or 3rd time.
I allways try to be punctual and im only interested in the person eg-personality,intrestets,hobys etc. as im not interested in a one night stand or anything like that for some reason girls think that were only after sex but thats not true very far from it actually. so i was wondering is there somthing wrong with my profile thats mabey scaring yous all away or something like that? ive gone over my messeges and there all great from my point of view ive got a friend that came around and she had a look at them her self and pretty much said "beets the hell out of me" they look fine????
so please is there someone out there that can give me a little advise as how to keep a conversation going with someone without them getting bored with you. it would be great just to get to know sombody thanx........ | |

Posted: 6/28/2009 4:59:08 AM | I hate to beat a dead post BUT if you're going to ask what's wrong with my profile...see below
EXAMPLES OF WHAT THREADS ARE NOT VALID
No profile reviews in this forum - Go to this forum Profile Reviews Forum
Any form of "pity me" or "attention seeking" or "complaint" threads such as:
Any thread dealing with "why can't I get a date", "what's wrong with me, am I too ugly, too thin, overweight" etc.
Threads that are designed to look at your profile for whatever reason.
Rather than expend futile energy in having the same 20 replies thrown at you, it more than likely has to do with your profile - go get it reviewed in the proper forum >> Profile Reviews Forum and read the Profile Writing Tips in that forum first.
The MAIN thing I'd tell you is the same thing I just told another guy...SPELLING MATTERS. I detest a bad speller. Your profile is your opening line on the net and if you have one full of misspelled words a lot of women will keep moving. | |

Posted: 6/28/2009 5:41:05 AM | I'm with fashionlady.... bad spelling and grammar immediately turn me off. I did not look at your profile b/c this in not the correct forum, but if it looks anything like the post you wrote, good grief! I've passed by many men b/c of their terrible spelling...
There is absolutely NO excuse for such bad spelling. You obviously have a computer. If you know you are a bad speller then you should be writing everything in Word and doing spell check before pasting onto POF or into emails....or download FireFox which has a built-in spell check and works great here!! | |

Posted: 6/28/2009 5:45:24 AM | You've been on here about 6 months. You've been beating a dead horse in that time
because you aren't letting this sight work for you. While your profile shows promise,
you need to run it through profile review and consider the changes that are suggested.
If you apply them, run it back through and have it looked at one more time. Ask them
to comment on photos as well.
I glanced at your profile, and I'd say that you're a decent looking guy. Most
of your photos show you with fish. While I like fishing, this makes you appear a bit
one- dimensional. Your profile isn't well written, and your sentences are run together,
etc. So, run it through the profile review area in the forums. All the best. | |

2 forums up...it's called Profile Reviews. Post a request for people to give you feedback.
The men who come here to "avoid" going there are being told that we're not really going to help them because the MODS have posted several times actually, that we're not supposed to. Considering I personally have been to "banned camp" before and you are there with no food/water/posting privileges...I have a tendency, unlike some of your fellow male counterparts, to actually READ AND OBEY THIS RULE.
It's not that hard and honestly...it's annoying as hell when guys do it cause it just shows you that they're either not that bright; think that the rules don't apply to them cause they're "special", or that they're all that and you need to give them that ego boost.
Not gonna happen...plus if you do give them a review and tell them what you think, then we're all biatches and stuck up women... | |

Posted: 6/28/2009 6:22:54 AM | How to respond, if I may ask, have you read many of the profiles of women here? (I'm not assuming you haven't.) That maybe a place to learn, pick up tips on what women want. It's a very good things to be ready for a conversation that highlights them. EVERYONE likes attention, so give them what they want (without being a push over wuss, they'll smell that a mile away!). At the same time, I have recieved mostly short emails, don't forget that there are a lot of freaks on here, who just want to show their manhood, and they need time to become comfortable with you. When emailing them, I've written almost short essays, meaning give them information that will help them qualify you as a guy who's going to be genuine, not some wacked out perv. I too have read in a few profiles that spelling counts, so capitalize your "I". Also when emailing, there are suggestion at the bottom of the page that could be of value, they could help inspire interest! Ask them out too, show that you want to meet them in person, that you're serious about them... | |

Posted: 6/28/2009 7:15:56 AM | Thanks people. I'm new to all this and when I read "submit to profile review", I assumed there was a function button somewhere. Anyway, will give it a go. Thanks for the advice St.John, will have a gander.
I find it strange that girls are always complaining thier fed-up of meeting players and want to meet a genuine guy who will treat them right. Yet know it is easier to get those same girls to bed than it is to get them to go on a date. Perhaps I should start a new thread. | |
