| I dread to ask, but please review my profile. Posted: 1/11/2012 1:43:53 PM | | Your pics aren't very good and your main profile pic really needs to GO!! You need a nice, closeup pic of you smiling with teeth showing. Your essay doesn't say much about what you want in a partner. Why don't your elaborate a bit more about yourself, your interests and what you are looking for? | |

| I dread to ask, but please review my profile. Posted: 1/11/2012 1:54:25 PM | Apart from pic 5. You look emo in a suit.
What is with all these brits asking for reviews lately? You will only pull girls by giving them tea and crumpets.
You sound like a nice guy but off to uni soon. So a girl may look at it as, 'is it worth chatting to you as you will be buggering off soon. Also pan's Labyrinth is a kinda cult fav film of women here in the UK. Not sure if it is the same abroad. So for a man saying it it sounds fake. But thats my generation so can't judge really on youthful opinions on the film. Pics are the biggest issue you look un-happy.

I'll clarify the bit about uni , I only intend to go fifteen miles down the road, and even then I've got a car. Pan's Labyrinth really is my favourite film though, so I can't really say anything else. Sadly, regarding pictures, it's a vicious circle. Without friendship I lack a good photo, and without a good photo I lack friendship. | |

Posted: 1/11/2012 3:26:06 PM | its a trend that many people have. you can take good self pics. whats months on here bored to at least a few days getting good pics and if nothing happens in a few months at least you can think of other options or ways to go about getting a girl.
I have fun on pof and chat to people, have a laugh I am genuinely never out of people to chat to date wise, but still havn't found the one even after great meets, 1 night stands or whatever. so who is the better man? you or me? Answer is neither.. i am thinking of taking my own advice and looking elsewhere just no money currently and i enjoy my time on pof so will stick around for a bit anyhoo. Its too easy to window shop online lol . POF does work still many people get results on here, but if you don't shrugs dude. Just be cool with yourself and what will be will be. That was just general advice really

| I dread to ask, but please review my profile. Posted: 1/11/2012 3:54:49 PM | OP, I think you can safely ditch the photos where you aren't smiling, and reserve them for women who ask to see more pictures.
Believe me, I know how hard it is to have decent pictures, but they really do help. Make sure you take an occasional break from your studies to socialize when you go to the university, and you'll find that decent pictures will come.
Regarding your profile itself, it feels a bit too wishy washy and sparse, but perhaps that's a bit of the language barrier from the Colonies, ha.
For example, the line about your education mentions some form of the word "hope" TWICE. "Hope" is passive, like you're waiting around for your desired educational path to just be dropped in your lap. Yeah, I know, probably not true, but how about expressing the line about your education more assertively and confidently, like...
"I just finished my A-Levels, and I'm really looking forward to studying physics at the University of Durham next year because..."
It's a great introduction to telling us more about yourself...but the opportunity is squandered when the author transitions to his piano and bassoon hobby. Why is telling us about your specific future studies important? Is there something about those studies that defines your personality? A short sentence about why you are looking forward to studying physics or why it is important to you after you mention that you want to go to UD would show prospective women some of your personality.
This is just one example of how a very small portion of your profile can be fleshed out, OP.
Best of luck. | |

Please message me if you'd like to know anything else, or just talk for that matter. Remove. You're coming across as needy. Women know what to do if they're interested in you and don't require prompting. | |
