Hello mate,

2 main things:
1st - you need a picture with a close up of your face. The picture you have is a good one as a secondary photo but not as the primary.
2nd - what you write is very informative but i got lost trying to read it as its all too condensed and should be in about 3 or 4 different paragraphs.

On an aside you may find that because of your age there will only be a small proportion of women who will respond to you, as they tend to like older men (they seem to think that they are far more maturer than us for some reason!)

Thanks, I agreed with your points. I added a picture with a close up of my face, not my favorite picture of myself but ill work on it lol. And I seperated into paragraphs.

And yea I know they tend to, but im not exactly looking for quantity, and someone I would be interested in (and would be right for me) would be more open minded then too base an opinion of someone on age alone. So im not too worried.

Consider a different user name. "Scar Tissue" implies you may have baggage (scars), and in general is not very appealing.

Check your use of "hear"... you are here. It's a little thing but those little things add up.

Also, I don't think it's good to say you don't know what you want. Try something like "I'm out to explore what life has to offer and want a companion on the journey.".

Good luck!

Thanks for the reply missed the typo. I changed the other part to I think you are right, I changed my wording around


I dont think I will change my user name, for me scar tissue represents maybe not baggage but life experiance. We all have 'baggage' but for some people it seems too jade's them, I have tried too protray in my profile that I take it and learn from it.
