| Ghastly or what? Posted: 7/4/2009 6:33:58 PM | | So, take a look at my profile and tell me what you think - really. Too old? Too ugly? Too nerdy? What? There must be something I'm missing. . . cuz frankly, I'm not having to beat them off with a baseball bat. . . | |

| Ghastly or what? Posted: 7/4/2009 6:59:07 PM | Well I read it and I can normally find a problem to comment on but I do not see one on your profile. Maybe it is time for me to sleep and refresh my brain.
I think it is very good!!

| Ghastly or what? Posted: 7/4/2009 7:11:48 PM | Overall I think it's quite good. A few minor points:
Pictures - what you currently have are fine, but I think you can do better here. Both are rather similar in that they are both face shots. Get some more variety - at least one full body shot, and ideally a few pictures of you doing some things you enjoy (possibly something from your interest list to tie it all together nicely). Finally, try to get a good face shot that is taken outdoors - natural light is more flattering to everybody.
Description - most of your description is very good, but consider removing or re-writing your first few lines. Don't talk about what you are NOT, talk about what/who you ARE. Rather than saying you're not dumb and helpless, describe yourself as bright and bold. Just turn it around into a positive.
Good luck.

Just bear in mind that all being on a dating site does is widen your radius...it doesn't make people who wouldn't be attracted to you in real life be magically attracted to you.
That said, be patient and yeah, add some pics. Yours is good a profile as I've seen. DO NOT succumb to the temptation of overspecifying your target male, lest Mr. Right decide he's probably not enough of #4 (whatever #4 is) and not respond. | |
