What can I do better?
Posted: 11/5/2009 7:24:34 PM
Like many I've succumb to partial frustration due to the lack of anything really resembling an attempt at a budding relationship. I keep telling myself its just not the right connection, not the right person, but I want to know if there's anything I'm doing wrong, or could be doing right to help my situation.

Thanks in advance

No pictures taken with a phone or web cam, EVER.

Only post pics of high quality taken be someone else, and of you smiling. No chick wants to see some glum looking guy posing in his bathroom.


I'm 21 years old, I live in Germantown, MD.

Not needed, delete.

Where's the awesome opening?


I just graduated from college and am a trained chef.

No offense, but unless you have a bachelor's, don't say you've graduated college. I know, an associates is a type of degree too, but saying the word "college" gives a different conotation.


I love too cook. Like anyone crazy enough to dedicate the rest of their life to a kitchen I want to cook for everyone but me.

Talking about cooking is a good thing. But reading this is the equivalent of eating a baked potato with no toppings, a little bland right? Where's the fancy feast?


My basics, which Im sure are somewhere in the menagerie of stats up top, but lets be redundant :D. Im 6'3", 230lbs, I have 2 tattoos, one on each arm, I plan to get more. I have no piercings, but don't mind, them, I actually think the right ones are sexy.

Delete. I know you couldn't think of anything else to put, so you put this to fill in space, but there are so many other things you could talk about, especially after a passionate paragraph about your cooking.

You seriously have the vocabulary that includes "menagerie" and "succumb" but your profile is this bland?


I would describe myself as a nerd gone punk rock. Im a little Sid Vicious, a little Bill Gates. I am recklessly reserved. My manners are always polite, though my words may not always be the same.

Bland. Let loose and relax a bit. But not too much...


Im lookin to live life in the moment, and not let anything pass me by if I can help it. I'm open to a lot of things. If you want to know what just send me a message. There's no question I wont answer. I tend to be kind of shy, even on a site like this, but I'll always respond, so send me

Delete. The first sentence is good though, so attach it to a better closer.


Talk up your awesome cooking abilities.

Talk about why you're such a great catch.

Open up.

And is that a cat in your 3rd pic? when you replace your crappy pics with really good ones, make sure you have one with your cat. Animal pics are great conversational pieces.

OP - Just another perspective on pets in pictures. They could possibly be competition depending on how cute they are. I just did a review tonight and would have rather gone out with the dog than the poster based on the profile. Just sayin....

Cheers!

Seeks - Nice review buddy.

OP - Listen to Seeks, for a young man he is amazingly insightful!

Ugh - Once again OP... Listen to Seeks.

Now I gotta go get me a dog, a cat, a rabbit...

I was wondering why I haven't had a date in 33 years. Thanks again Seeks!
