What's your perception of my profile?
Posted:

You seem like a nice guy, from my side of town - Hilliard!
so here's my two cents worth: Keep in mind though, that I'm far from an expert!
Definitely agree on the casual picture suggestions and the seemingly stilted flow of your text. Do you have anything you like to do in your spare time? The items you mention as INTERESTS may be better suited for the body of your profile. Sounds like travel and beaches are an interest? Do you like plays, concerts, books, music?
Using double negatives, although not incorrect ( he, he), are confusing. Here is an example of text that is too confusing to be useful in your profile. You could delete this part altogether: "But do not need a conservative with a closed mind, big ego, and not willing to learn and teach me things I do not know. Someone who is comfortable speaking to stuck up conceited egotistical people and the opposite of that. "
You've got another Hilliard advantage... Lucky's! I've not been there yet myself, having the Hilliard FC Soccer meetings Sunday evenings, but plan to check it out some day. Oh, and you might post some replies to more innocuous threads. That nudie bar post sticks out like a sore thumb, giving somebody the wrong impression if they don't actually read your post. :-)
Anyway, you get my vote
Best of luck!

Why is it Folks join a Dating Site such as POF if they just wanna ' hang out ?????

Have you ever tried to look at the bright side of life. It seems like your comments are so negative.
One problem with forums is the same problem with email and chat... it's just hard to express oneself in black and white with a quick poke of a few fingers at a keyboard, ending with "post" and it's gone! And it's even harder to interpret from those words - what the person is really saying or from where they are coming.
I interpreted Eastside Eddie's comments in a positive manner. He and so many others on here have expressed the attitude that we are realists and enjoy relationships on every level. Those of us who are looking for a long term relationship realize that there will be many friendships made along the way, and probably lots of "hangin out"
Ultimately, I hope to fall in love again, for the last time.
For me, every good relationship starts as a friendship. And friends and family are the most important part of life. Lovers will come and go. But friends are usually forever.
Written with a smile and hope,
Bob

Serial Dating

Very good point, Suznn!
We all think we are sooo selective. Do we think we would be happy with every fifth guy or gal? Or are we looking for that "one in a hundred" or "one in a million" person? Why then are we so disappointed when we don't find the right person after five different dates? Is dating such a chore? Can we not see past our checklist of desirable traits enough to realize that the person with whom we are sharing coffee is a wonderful person despite their nervous giggles or shy silence? Do we go home from a date excited to have met a new friend, or disappointed that the otherwise interesting person did not fulfill lines 3 and 11 of our list? -Bj

Do You Men Read Our Whole Profiles?

I always read the whole profile. And with 95% retention for at least 60 seconds, it better be a short note or I better be typing really fast or... wait, what was the question? :-)

I would never presume that my standards are the same as another persons, nor would I want to suggest that my standards are better than the next person's. With that said though, if I am intimate with a woman, it is only on the condition that we are already exclusive. Most ladies I know well, believe that intimacy demands exclusivity.
So how do I reconcile that with the fact that I once enjoyed tumbling passionately into bed with a lady on a first date? Well, maybe you could chalk it up to being a guy. But I hope that is not the reason. Sometimes there really is an instant connection. Those are the nights that stretch into years.
But I really agree with Trackman. Dating is intrinsically fun and worthwhile just to meet someone new. I think the people who do not have fun on dates are not really interested in other people, but in satisfying the bullet points of their own agenda.
