Posted: 1/18/2007 1:30:04 PM | Not everyone hates the About Me section, and saying you don't know what to say makes you sound boring, even if you're not.
To, not 2.
'Hopeless romantic" is an overused phrase. Show, not tell.
Since you hope to play in a band, why not elaborate on what kind of music you play/like?
Your third pic should probably be your main; the first has another person (not good) and red eye like woah.
Having something more in the First Date section would be good. It doesn't have to be a detailed itinerary, just a few ideas of things you'd enjoy.
Good luck! | |

Posted: 1/18/2007 1:42:35 PM | You're on the site for dating yet your main picture shows you with a girl. She might only be a friend but it doesn't send out the right message. I think you're best putting your third pic as your main one, it's a good picture of you 
It's really important to think of something to put in your first date box. It shows that you know what you like. Resist the temptation to put something along the lines of 'I'd let the lady decide' I don't know about anyone else but to me that seems a bit of a copout. I like to see that someone has a few ideas beyond the normal coffee or dinner date. You say you like snowboarding, why not a snowboarding date, just something a little different that would allow you to share your interests with a girl and make you stand out compared to other people.
Also take out the comments about never knowing what to say and you'll come across as more confident, which is always a good thing.
Hope this helps  | |

Posted: 1/18/2007 2:00:00 PM | You have to get rid of the girl in your main picture. Even if you crop her out, she has to go. And the cig picture. Not exactly first impression material. I have one in my hand in one of my pictures and i've actually gotten smarmy comments about that.
Good luck | |

Posted: 1/18/2007 2:06:36 PM | | actually I just changed my profile, thanks to the first 2 girls that replied, and it seems that most people think the pic with the cig is the best one of me and I must say I can't lie since I'm baked as shit in the one and drunk in the one with my co-worker, but anyways there the only ones I have, thanks for the imput anyone else with anything new can feel free to help | |
