I would like to get some input on how to make a better profile. I would like to know what is wrong with my profile. It looks fine to me, but I rarely get a women to respond. I do get a lot of women that viewed me, but they never write to me. I do write to them but I rarely get a response. Well I would appreciate any opinions or suggestions onto make my profile more interesting. Thanks

If your blue eyed where are they?

Your photos probably don't do you justice, eyes closed, too far away, an old one that doesn't express sexy like you say you are.

It's all in the photos I believe.......

Can't see your eyes at all in your main pic - switch it to pic #3.

Your profile: I am a full-time student My goal for now is to graduate in the least time possible so that can expand my options to do business. A little bit about me, well I'm fun to be around with, funny, sexy and intelligent. I love to dance, travel and I love to have fun. Having a good time is a must!

Write more about the things that make you unique. Tell what you are studying and talk about what kind of business you are working toward. Show a photo of you having fun with friend instead of writing about it. Try to write things in your profile that show your sense of humor and intelligence. Talk about the kind of dancing you love and why you like that particular kind. Where have you traveled and where do you want to go next. What does it mean to have fun for you? Sitting on the couch watching sports...or grabbing a ball and some friends and heading over to the park? Add a photo of you in action...dancing or doing your favorite sport. Add a photo of you from one of your travels. Everyone likes a good time...suggest to the ladies the kind of things you'd like to do with them on a date. Eliminate the word "sexy". She'll be able to see that for herself. You could add what you are looking for...a companion...love of your life...dance partner.

Jesus don't worry about what you wrote!!!

Leave that alone... Here is what you do:

1) Get a better camera... your photos are out of focus
2) Get a full body shot so they can see if your chubby

Otherwise your fine. Don't adjust the writing. Remember men in uniform are expected to have nice "bodies" so every girl who replies is gonna wanna know.

first of all.. how about changing your paragraph to a couple of spaced out sentences. It gets a little much sometimes for people to read when everything is bunched together.

Second... get with a friend who knows how to use a camera. The pic you have as the main pic is clearly a cropped one of you with someone else (i'm guessing a girl) and that's not real attractive.

I like your profile, and love the pic of you in uniform.Thank you for serving your country!
The only thing I found that put me off ,was the very last sentence; "looking for a girl that is worth my time". It makes you sound a little stuffy, or critical. Nobody likes to be judged. Maybe " looking for the girl that is ready for a committed relationship", or "similar goals". Us girls have run into plenty of weird guys on these sights, so most (I hope) are pretty careful.
Do you go to any POF parties?? try that if you haven't

I have to agree with the others.... the pictures still need a little help. Was there a "real" smile in there anywhere? Guys think it is macho not to smile. I think that most ladies like a smile, so give it a try. Definitely keep the one in uniform.

Before reading the other's views, my thoughts were, without a doubt, that last line needs to go! Of course no one wants to waste their time, but the way you state it does not come across very nice. Try to have a positive closing to our profile.

Best of Luck to you!

thanks but yeah once I read it again, it didn't seem like a good ending lol. But yeah I never been to the POF parties, I would go alone but it would be strange. Really didn't know what to expect. But yeah thanks for the recommendation. You guys are great , thanks a lot for the help it helped me out a lot!!!
