Posted: 11/3/2009 9:59:21 PM | | I've only been on this site for a couple of weeks. I've recieved many views, but few e-mails. It seems like when I e-mail a lady of particular interest she views my profile and that is as far as it goes. Now, I understand that not everyone is going to respond (part of the law of averages, I guess), but I do feel like i'm missing out on great conversation as well as those with geniune interest. I know my profile is pretty vague, but I just assumed those that were potentially interested would ask question where there are blanks. So ladies if you could come up with a design for me to be more successful, I would be eternally grateful. Be as honest and open as you feel. Can ask for help if your not ready to hear healthy feedback. -T | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 10:30:12 PM | Well, let's see. In all of your pictures, there isn’t one smile. Heck, even your son doesn’t like the camera. Looks like he is drinking a beer, by the way.
Get rid of the “drunken” one, not a good picture. In fact, I would get rid of both, why people put the same picture up two or more times is beyond me.
Until you get different pictures, I would put the 3eb as your main, try and crop him out if you can, if not, no biggie, you are both handsome.
I think your profile is decent, but a bit short. Break that into smaller paragraphs, it’s much easier to read that way.
Your headline? Reminds me of the guy that got booed off the stage. He wasn’t too popular that night, was he?
I would nix the stupid questions comment that you have at the end.
Do you have/like animals? Do you like your job?
Your Friends comment was funny, so your humor is coming through. I would show more of it.
The “too many to list” under the interests? List some of them anyway. Don’t be lazy about it. What kind of person are you looking for?
A spa date on the first date? I don’t think that is going to happen, I would nix that right out of there. Maybe save it for your second date?
You are a handsome guy, but your pictures don’t show it. Get some new ones, add some more to your profile and I think you will be good.
Best of luck to you! | |

Correct your text.. fix capitilization. Definitely needs paragraphs as bunched up writing is annoying to read. List some other interests in the appropriate box.
Accepting to watch only Oscar-worthy movies makes you sound pretentious/elitist. What of a comedy?
Spa might be construed as somewhat sleazy for a first date. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 2:34:30 AM | | Thank you. I appreciate your feed back. It was actually a root beer my son was drinking. lol And I stuck my tongue out first, hence the ''responding in kind'' comment. Thank again though. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 2:41:44 AM | I'll just say thank you and leave it at. But understand it's tough being
open -minded when the person given advice about pictures doesn't even have one on display! None the less i'll keep your ideas in mind. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 2:03:31 PM | Bear in mind I'm not the one asking for a review, you are. Absolutely no reason for you to comment on any pics I might or might not have. Turning it back on the reviewer shows an inability to handle criticism. You are unneccesarily defensive.
Bottom line, you want to improve your profile, I gave a critique, it's not an ego stroking exercise. But if you like, I'll say pic 1 would've been really good if you had a different expression. However, other better pics would have offset it.
If someone's ideas don't do it for you, move on. Expect to get a cross-section of opinions, not all that you will necessarily agree with. Otherwise, don't ask for a review.

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:53:24 PM | K. hold on right there. You are making judgements based on me stating an obvious fact. I could careless what your profile looks like. My only concern is improving mine. I think anyone would find it difficult to take criticism from somone they can't see about the very thing they are being critical over.
There was no malice or ill will towards you, just stating a fact. I don't want this to become a verbal jabbing session. I said thank you and it really should have been the end of it. | |

Posted: 11/5/2009 6:15:53 PM | To explain another way, if I had given you a glowing review of your pics, you wouldn't be saying.. "Ah bullshit, you can't expect me to take that seriously when you got jack on your profile". It's your ego, anything else is just an excuse.
Read the other profile reviews. I'm not the first nor will I be the last without a pic to review another user's pics, not everyone finds an issue with this.
What I have made are observations, not judgements. Not interesting in a jabbing match. | |
