The following things are bad as far as pics go: Indoor self pics, kids, hats, sunglasses and pics in cars. Get the picture?
<-- click my History for my pic guidelines.

Complete your Interests. Try for 12 Interests. They are searchable links that will bring people to your profile and make you look interesting.

Slow down! Too much.

Add a sentence or two about who you are looking for. Something or her to identify with.

Generally with kids you should include age and how often you have them.

Be positive and upbeat, genuine and sincere, show self esteem and self confidence. What works is being different, standing out from the crowd. Good/great profiles have "personality", you've got a good start.

You have potential, with the right pics you should do better.

Use ALL the site functions at the top of your screen. They all have their benefits and can lead to dates. The more often you log in to your Inbox, the more exposure you get.

For messages:
Keep it short and simple.
Don't mention how attractive/hot they are.
Don't ask them to look at your profile or message you.
Pose one or two simple questions they can answer.

Here is an example of a simple and successful message:
I sent this to a Steelers fan with no pets:
(The Steelers and Browns are arch rivals.)
(Had a date in less than 24 hours.)
*********************************************************
I root for the Steelers, as long as they aren't playing the Browns.
Is that okay?

Not allergic to dogs are you?

firstname

*********************************************************
Another successful one:

Wait a minute!
You say "I don't believe a house can be a home without pets."
But your profile says "No Pets".

What is up with that?

firstname

********************************************************
Keep Fishing!

Advice is much appreciated !!! I will take some of those suggestions into account for sure. As for using sports references...im a die hard sports fan here in Edmonton and i use every chance i can to use it as a mutual interest topic and it usually gets a first date. Appreciate the advice
