I enjoy: ~ Sight Seeing ~ Travelling ~ Nature/Science/Documentaries ~ reminiscing with close friends from highschool every semester ~ People having input in my life, but not telling me how to lead it
I've taken the liberty of quoting your entire profile, since it won't take up much room. You might need more bud... I know you've seen the tiny little things some of these hotter females get away with writing... but I'm not sure I've seen ANY guy on this forum who can get away with it. You wrote even less than you thought though, since traveling and sight-seeing are the same, taking you down to a 4-item list.
All that stuff can be listed in the interests section, where it will help you come up in search results... except for the bit about catching up with high school friends. Nothing wrong with that... but it seems weird to be the ONLY thing you really "talk" about. SURELY you do something else which you can write more about. If not, write about her, what should she be like.
This is a good problem to have though, usually people can't figure out a way to shut up in their profiles. | |

P.S. Non of these pictures have a particularly good view of your smiling face. Get a close-up. Also, that main pic isn't something that would be typically recommended - however I think it might be interesting enough to work. I don't like any of my pics in my suits, don't like the vibe from them. This pic is an excellent way of avoiding the issue I detected with my own. | |

| I Would like a profile review please Posted: 7/3/2012 3:30:12 PM | Ah okay, Cheers fella. I'll try add to my profile and find a pic where i don't make a muppet of myself where i'm smiling. But adding to my profile is so hard, i go braindead when asked to write about myself o.O.
Should i write that i compete for my uni in boxing to an amateur profession or does that sound like i'm going to be always busy and a gym junky? And i can't write about music, it may be hard to believe but i only started listening to music in January 2011, the first time i ever turned the radio on myself. All other instances of listening to music was passive.
IMHO what i talk about isn't really great for talking about on my profile. Examples of what i discuss: Girls, watches, vacations, plans for the future and general gossip about friends that you haven't heard from a while. Oh and gym ofcourse.. everyone likes to talk about the bouts i have coming up..
Thanks for the guidance, i appreciate it. | |

Vacationing and plans for the future are actually both fine to talk about - says you like to enjoy yourself and be responsible. Not sure the context for mentioning watches, could be something to mention Heck, I might even say something about your lack of musical experience, it's interesting. "I'm not your average guy, I follow what interests me and don't check over my shoulder to see if others approve. For example, would you believe I somehow all but ignored the fine art of music almost my entire life? Sure, I heard plenty, but it was never me turning on the radio, I was always a passive listener. It didn't interest me until last year I heard "xyz song or band" and now I just can't catch up on "xyz genre" fast enough. | |

| I Would like a profile review please Posted: 7/4/2012 11:14:29 AM | I don't have any boxing pics :/.. my coach and team take some i guess i could ask for one.
I'll add something about vacations.
Only reason i really started listening to music was it helped me ignore fatigue while going on a jog, first time i tried it, was when i heard it helps with working but then later realised only ones without lyrics help with revision xD. I'm not fussed about music i'll listen to anything. Though i'm not sure how i would add this to my profile.
Oh and dude, I have to say, "YOU ARE AWESOME!" thanks for helping me with my profile so much haha. | |
