Please feel free to give brutally even insane advice on my profile, so long as it is honest and makes sense i will graciously follow everyone's advice and make changes in order to make it more appealing and concise.

Expect the fact you'll have women pass you8 by simply because you do smoke.

The close-up of your face ( #3 ) ; it's very dark. Try to get some better photographs and don't have many with sunglasses. Women will wonder just what it is you're hiding.

A pic or two of you dancing would be terrific!

Include in your profile the type of woman you'd find attractive; traits etc.,

Yes i definetly have seen that because i smoke my options are limited.

The saddest part is that 99% of those who viewed my profile did not smoke so there is curiosity there, and i thought it was because i was overweight.

It's ironic to me that those women who do view my profile AND smoke don't write, weird huh?

I'll get pics of me at the dance studio, thanks !

Great advice thanks!

I always feel weird writing this, because it's not particularly helpful but....your profile looks ok to me. When people don't respond, they are just not interested. Don't take it personally.

Oh no i'm not offended. I tried to keep it short and to the point, i know that attraction is key, then substance, then chemistry.

I was concerned that i may not have been as clear as i should have been or that there may have been something i was not communicating effectively.

Thanks!

Like she said it's OOOOOOK. It's just like ehhhhh, you're not really showing any of your personality, just what you like to do and what kind of woman you want and no offense but you're first date is BOOOOOORING and like you said yourself, it's not original. Think of something original. I couldn't imagine you getting a lot of responses off this unless you're messages are really good.

Cool thanks Chris, you are dead on about the first date, i just find that no matter how good a pic is or email, a meet is greet over coffee is safer, rather than plan something really exciting only to have them get over it.

I'll definetly re-work it to put more of my personality into

Good advice thanks!

I seem to be attracting curiosity from NON smokers, can anyone tell me why ?

Seems 98% of those that view my profile are non smokers,

99 percent of those who DO smoke don't reply.

I know looks ( or the lack there of )obviously play a crucial part but i find it odd that so many are non smokers and i was wondering what is it about my profile or pics that seems to attract them?

Thanks

Pam found twue wuv though, right?

Most of the women on this site don't smoke. It's just demographics working against you.

Look at my first date and elaborate on yours. There's nothing wrong with being vague, just have to do it right :P

Thanks for the advice i took a look at your first date and mine does need a re-write.

I just thought it was strange that i could not find a smoker to date, i think it finally makes more sense how the demographics on POF work.

Granted it couldn't hurt to be taller and thinner but that's a topic for another thread.........

Ok i re-wrote the body of the about me section in the attempt to answer any questions that would come up.

I wrote it in as clear and concise a manner as i could without being too boring.

Let me know what you think.

Still need to get new pics and fix the first date more but that's it for now.

Thanks

I tried to read it, but my attention span is too short...LOL
It is nice to bare all, but I would have liked to see a little mystery. Give a little of yourself while still showing that u are friendly.
Of course I am not really one to talk...my profile is downright mean...LMAO
