I've been trying dating sites for years, the only reply so far is 'lol, nice try but no banana' could some ladies have a look at my profile and be honest with me?

I'm not a lady, but If they ask for a Banana, then give them one.

Actually yhe only thing you are doing wrong is expecting too much. You can't come to these places and expect they will look you up and start up with ya. You have to do just as much work online as you do IRL and even then all you are going to get is a reply to an email. (That they will probably stop responding to after one or two times)

Focus on the forums and such to get yourself known. I've noticed you have like no posts in the forums and that helps a lot. If people can read your threads and questions and how you respond to people they begin to feel like they know you and are more apt to respond.

So write lots of emails and post lots in the forums. And try not to expect too much, afterall, this is our fake world not the real one and so things that happen here often don't flow over into our real lives, even if the wisdom we get here does.

Hi There,
In ALL honesty I don't think that you are doing anything wrong. The right girl has not found you yet. Your profile looks fine and I think that you will find that special someone, it just takes patience, I know that sucks, but it's the truth. It took me 13 years to find my soul mate and you too will find yours.
Keep the faith and it will happen !
Best of luck,
Blossom

thanks for the replies, I do send a lot of emails but they don't get replied to, except the one... Will sort out a better photo when i work out how to take a decent one without holding the camera... Online one had added fun as I'm blind as a bat without my specs.

Dating sites are tricky bro... I would do the pic gig, and then just give it time. You have posted twice in here so far. Just open up, sling a few lines of sh*t around... open up and be yourself. Find a topic your comfortable with on here and build a repor with someone, then let it go where it may...

Good luck brotha!!

I agree with everyone else here, but I also wanted to say your profile sounds really serious like to me, but you say you are funny and witty, maybe let your profile show it !! Have fun with it!!
Just my opinion

The "Mad Scientist" thing is the first thing that weirded me out. Also, Maybe get some more pictures on there with you smiling and ones that are in color. Good luck.

Luddite! Philistine!

Nikola Tesla was a great man, a tormented man, and was someone ahead of his time in more ways then one.

I think its great this guy knows about him and respects him and not only that, has a good sense of humor.

If you have been trying dating sites for years and only got one reply, good god, stop it, its obviously not working for you! Your just making yourself miserable!
