Heya,

If anyone could provide some feedback on what turns you on or off about my profile that would be very much appreciated! Be as harsh as you like... I seem to be getting a reaasonable amount of views but hardly any messages!

Thanks,
Joe x

You are 29 years old and you only want someone to "Hang out" with? If that's all you want, then perhaps your guy friends are all you need?

Your primary picture should be a good, sharp, well lit, close up head shot of you smiling without a hat. Your goal is for a woman to look at your picture and say to herself "That's someone I'd like to be with".

You shouldn't have your full body shot as your main pic - it doesn't work as a thumbnail. I'd suggest moving the last pic up, since that's the warm, smiling pic.

You come across as a lad. If that's what you're shooting for, then it's good. But you have to know that it will turn many women away.

Lose this entirely:

<div class="quote">If you send me a message I will reply even if it is to politely decline. Simple manners are important to me and that extends beyond this site. In the company of women I am always a gentleman however that does not make me a walkover or a wuss. If you want someone following you round like a little puppy click ‘back’ and pick the next guy - I'm sure he will be happy to have you :).
Too negative. You tell women you'll decline them. The rest is open to an interpretation you won't like - every real jerk here could say the same.

Edit: Fine, change the damn thing before you even hear from me. I'm taking credit anyway.

Thanks and have made a small ammendment!

Given me some food for thought there - will have a think and reword the rest...

Any positive/negative feedback appreciated!
