| convinced that my profile needs help...little help?
Posted: 11/1/2009 7:52:09 PM | | I made a lot of changes to my profile, but I am absolutely sure that it needs some more. I just need someone other than myself to rip it apart, because I would rather have my profile not be a tragedy. | |

Posted: 11/1/2009 8:27:11 PM | What's convinced you that your profile needs to be worked on?
I think it's fine, then again, I'm not a girl so I wouldn't know what to look for, and I think mine needs some work too, so I'm like the blind leading the blind right now...
But as far as I can tell, it looks fine to me. Maybe some people might have a problem with the wall of text filled with bulleted information that would probably be something they can find out on a date. Or maybe you can use complete sentences and build paragraphs detailing your interests. | |

Posted: 11/1/2009 8:43:00 PM | The guy above me made some on target suggestions. And Quatrequinze--you're profile is good as is, you are so modest.
Papasmurfy--You simply need to format into paragraphs--it's painful to read.
All your pics have problems--no relaxed smiles, not looking into camera, in 1 you look 15--are they recent?
Please work on that, then you can get feedback--looks like you put thought into the words and ideas, so it may be quick to improve.
I never watched the Smurfs, but this username might come off juvenile, and that doesn't help much.
I think you have alot of sought after qualities, but just need better pics.
Best of luck. | |

Posted: 11/1/2009 9:45:04 PM | Thanks for the help. The pictures are recent, but that one is from a year ago. People complain that I look young, but I really can't control that...
I will definitely make the changes you suggested. They are good ones. I just thought that the list would be easier to read than paragraphs. How wrong I was. | |

Posted: 11/1/2009 10:22:35 PM | No, you're not wrong. I personally think point form is easier too. But I guess if you're trying to appeal to people who'd want to date you, ehh... I don't know... cause right now, I'm thinking that I've shown interest in some people who had an information section that was all in point form.
Maybe keep it as it is, but put a bullet in front of it? like:
* I like movies
* I collect stuff
* etc. | |

Posted: 11/1/2009 10:57:49 PM | If bullets and lists are so great, why aren't they in yours?. You're studying economics, so you like a certain format, but most prefer paragraph form, for many reasons.
The reason you like a girl has nothing to do with her formatting, I'd guess. | |

I have been told that I am funny, but that is kind of hard to prove it on an internet profile. I could load this profile with joke after joke, but I am not that desperate.
Sounds unnecessary to say that you have been told that you are funny. Best to say that you have a wicked sense of humour and leave the rest out.
You are not that desperate? Well don't bother saying so... leave it out.
The last pic is dark and blurry so best to ditch that one. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 4:56:34 PM | I made a few more changes to my profile over the last few days. I think that it is getting better but I need someone to check out my photos. That was the worst part I guess...
Any help would be greatly appreciated. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 12:39:30 AM | Pics--Use 2nd photo instead for main--it's a head and shoulders smiling eye contact smile--see? That's not so hard. More smiles and not looking at the wall.
The above angle pic is smiling, but strained. Avoid angle shots--people do that to slim their face but it's pointless. Use a straight on shot, as you'd meet in life.
You are really 5'11? I always assumed you were short--better get a body pic.
Title--"Normal"--are you getting odd replies?
Think of something positive!1 dressier attire shot.
Way better pics than before--keep improving.
Text needs work--off the top of my head--The girl must... do not phrase anything as a 'must'. That's when dislike starts.
User name--better, but if something more you comes to mind, use it.
Best of luck. | |
