| Any suggestions about improving my profile Posted: 3/9/2008 1:17:55 PM | Hi I'm new to the whole online dating thing and would like some honest and hopefully helpful advice on how I can improve my profile. So be honest, blunt or anything else that floats your boat about how I can improve either my profile or my pics.
Thanks | |

Post. Post. Bob only knows how many profiles there are on this site, no one has time to look through them all.
However.
A lot of those fish do lurk. As evidenced by your high view count but low reply number.
Post, make yourself known to the community, and they will come.
Be loud. | |

You have some good honest pics there bud, and i can't really see much weakness in your profile, except maybe pointing out how much or a gentleman you are. Everyone on here tries to sell themself as a nice guy, but bragging about it only seems to make a lady skeptical.
Now how about returning the favour on mine...? | |

| Any suggestions about improving my profile Posted: 3/15/2008 2:54:32 PM | Hi looked at your profile and I think trying to get different photos would help. I'm sure the shirt looks great in real life but it doesn't translate well in pics and this is the only thing women have to go with.
I also would expand on the interests. You like going out to the restaurant, cook, music, add it. Right now, you only have 3.
You're looking for a friend. To do what? Go out? hang out? watch TV? Speaking of interests, you mention hiking. Perhaps mentioning going for a long hike with a picnic is something you're looking forward to doing with someone. Expand on that a little bit as well as what you're looking for in a woman.
I would also remove the reference to "offending anyone". You are who you are, don't make excuses for it. If you're definitely not the person for them, they won't contact you anyway. And don't say to people to "hit you up". You could say "I'd love to hear from you".
Last, it's been suggested to you to post. Do it! They get added to your profile so people can have an idea of who you are based on what you say. Be involved. It's not just sending notes to women, it's being involved in the forums so you can be yourself.
Good luck. | |

| Any suggestions about improving my profile Posted: 3/15/2008 3:32:34 PM | | I agree with the earlier poster(s) who wrote that you should remove the "if that offends you" language and also the "if interested hit me up". The shirt is kind of funky and I like it but I get the feeling it's not truly a part of your usual attire. Just a feeling. But, if it's not, you might want to consider whether you are projecting the true you or some hipster who wears a spirograph shirt and says hit me up. | |
