Would be interested in some feedback
Posted: 11/7/2006 12:38:20 PM
I would say replace all of your pics except for your first pic, they are all blurry! The first pic is good and would be great if you weren't wearing shades. When people can't see your eyes they get the feeling of low self confidence or you have something to hide and I don't think you do. Get a friend and do a fun photo shoot with a digital camera. Do your hair and make up the way you normally do, put on a nice shirt and find a nice wall to shoot against. (a wall with a neutral colour) Stick to head shots or mostly torso shots as the pics on this site tend to be small and they will give people the best impression of you.

Pointers to improve plz
Posted: 11/7/2006 12:32:26 PM
There is a lot of talk about confiding and sharing, it comes off as though you need someone to help you through something. I'm sure that is not what you are going for, its just how it sounds. Also, not to be rude, but your pics are terrible. Web cams make for lousy pics. If you don't have a digital camera, someone you know does. Get together and do a mini photo shoot. Do your hair and make up however you would normally, put on a nice shirt and find a nice wall to shoot up against. Make sure the light isn't too dark or harsh and start snapping! Experiment with it a little, different angles etc. Try to get one of you laughing and don't look into the lense. Then go through them and pic the best two or three and post them. Stick to head shots or head and torso shots because the pics on this site are fairly small and those shots will give people the best chance to see YOU. It is amazing how much more mail you will get with a good photograph of yourself. POF says you can get up to 70% more mail with a good picture of yourself! Well worth the effort I think.

Not a newbie, but not getting any email

I would say that your location is the biggest obsticle you face, but what can you do? Fredricton is just not that big a place. Aside from that, maybe a few extra pics of you would help. Maybe something where you're not driving your car?

genital hair
Posted: 11/7/2006 12:20:24 PM
Everyone should trim down there, man or woman. There is no need to shave the area bald, but keeping it short is important. Tell her to tell him how much bigger his penis looks when his pubes are trimmed. I know thats why I trim mine!

the new guy vs. the male friend.
Posted: 11/7/2006 12:18:36 PM
Your friend will continue to date ***hole after ***hole, its what women do. Your job is to be her friend through it all and be there for her when it blows up on her. Most women react poorly to medling in their dating, they take it as jelousy. As for this guy crushing your hand in a handshake, the answer is simple. He is compensating for something, and its often a lacking in the bulge. Its been my experience that guys who over do the hand shake are really insecure about their masculinity so they over do it with jestures of manliness. Those of us who are secure about ourselves and our "buddy" are able to give a proper, firm but not aggressive hand shake.

Guys, why in today's world do you still expect women to take your last name in marriage?
Posted: 11/7/2006 12:12:42 PM
I worry about the children when a parent decides the name should be hyphonated. So now your child is Jane Smith-Jones. Super, two names to learn to spell in kindergarden! One is hard enough. And what about when they go to get married? Do they hyphonate again? Jane Smith-Jones-Thompson? Or worse, Jane Smith-Jones-Thompson-Hart? (Because maybe the spouse to be has a hyphonated name) Where do you decide to stop? Which names do you drop in order to be able to sign your name documents?

Some traditions are just fine they way they are. If you are stead fast in your belief to not change your name, would it be alright if the man was stead fast in a non-traditional belief? Say buying you a $100 ring because he believes two months salary is an out-dated tradition?

I think after a month of being broken up you are fine to go back there. I believe in giving each other space after a break up but after a while you need to feel free to go where you want.

Dating someone who hasn't found themselves yet?
Posted: 11/5/2006 1:49:18 PM
People are constantly evolving and changing with each new expeirience. Though they think they have "found" themselves today, something happens tomorrow that changes them and they think they have" found themselves again. There is no "finding" yourself as if that is the self you will always be. As you age and grow, your goals, fears, expectations, and passions change aswell.

Can we find a date elsewhere?
Posted: 11/5/2006 1:19:31 PM
I agree with you, there is nothing wrong with this form of meeting people.

For me, it is one of the only ways to meet people. I can't date someone from work because all of the single women work under me so to speak and I think it would be awkward to have to give your gf orders, plus the rumour mill at my work is horrible and I don't feel like adding to it.

I can't meet women at the bar because I don't like to drink and drunk people bug me. Also the music is usually too loud to hear what they are saying.

I ask my friends to set me up with their single friends, but the either say they don't have any or say they don't have any that are good enough for me.

This leaves what? The grocery store? "Hi, I'm a huge tool who can't find the letus, could you help me?" I don't think so. The bowling ally? Have you seen the type of women who hang out at the bowling ally? Not too many places to meet people.

HELP WITH PROFILE,

Your description is good. I don't know what "I've been know to talk for england" means though.

I would work on getting a decent picture of yourself. The pic you have is too dark and out of focus. A good headshot will increase the mail you get 10 fold.

Hey thats my number, I'm next
Posted: 11/5/2006 1:00:32 PM
I think you need to work on your description. I have no idea who you are! If I was reading your profile I would move on immediately b/c I don't want to waste my time emailing someone to find out even the most basic things about them when the basics are supposed to be in the description.

Also web cam pics are really low quality and aren't a good representation of what you look like. Get a friend with a digital camera to do some head shots for you. Do your hair and make up the way you normally do and snap away. Dont look into the camera either.

Your description is great. I would work on getting some better pics though. The ones you have are a little out of focus or the light is harsh. Get a friend with a digital camera and go do a fun photo shoot. Keep it to head shots or torso and head shots cause the pics on this site tend to be small to start with.

sex so soon after...wtf boys???
Posted: 11/5/2006 12:50:40 PM
To me sex can be completely separate from feelings. I don't prefer it that way, I much prefer to be in a loving relationship with the person I am sleeping with, but sometimes you just want to be close to someone when you've just had your heart broke or your relationship just failed. I think they call them rebound relationships? When done correctly, both parties have just left someone. Both parties work on building the others self esteem back up and have sex together until they both feel like atractive, desireable people again and then mutual part ways. Some of my best friends are people who were "rebounds".

When must you not date others?
Posted: 11/5/2006 12:45:33 PM
I say until you have both decided to be exclusive, there is nothing wrong with seeing other people. I hate this new trend of people expecting you to be exclusive after one date! I for one think that DATING needs to be taught to people again. A date does not mean I can not date someone else. Though if things start to be intimate with someone I stop dating other people.

ugly boobs
Posted: 11/5/2006 12:40:46 PM
The women I have dated all had odd or differnent breasts. Just seems to be the way it is for me. One had boobs that looked like cones with nipples like a babie's bottle, another had large saggy breasts with big silver dollars for nipples, still another had perfect boobs with both nipples pierced. To be honest none of them mattered to me. I don't have much of a preference.

Why, why, why are men so into love the outdoors thing
Posted: 11/5/2006 12:35:00 PM
Many men (myself included) lead very busy, stressful, and modern lives. We enjoy camping and getting outdoors because it brings us back (even if its only for a few days) to a simpler time. Everything is simplified for a while. You have your shelter, your wearing clothes that are warm enough and there is food to be eaten. Simple. The rest of the time is for relaxing, clearing your head, and feeling conected to the earth.

Your profile says you are from Edmonton and you are in your 50's. I understand that Edmonton is a pretty big city. It could be that you are too urbanized to enjoy it or it could be your age.

When your boyfriend loses interest in sex
Posted: 11/5/2006 12:30:33 PM
Sex, like many things in a relationship moves in ebbs and flows, just like the sea. There are times of high tide and times of low tide. Just wait it a bit and see if the high tide comes back.

Women with LONG HAIR
Posted: 11/5/2006 12:26:09 PM
Hair length for me all depends on the woman. Some women look down right frumpy with long hair and some look fantastic. Same can be said for really short hair. I think what matters is that a woman has a hair style that suits her.

As for the hair colour question, Redheads my dear, Redheads.

Do Me
Posted: 11/4/2006 10:11:00 AM
Well lets see. The name "Tequilla Suicide" is definately original, if a bit intimidating. The pics of the freaky dolls are a nice touch. The pics of you are grianny, out of focus, and too dark, they need replacing. You can not be "infinately cleverer", "cleverer" is not a word. You can be "infinately MORE clever", but not "cleverer". (Kind of defeats the statement.)

pls review
Posted: 11/4/2006 10:05:16 AM
Here it is. Your opening pic, the one people see first, is a distant shot of you wearing sunglasses holding a beer. We can barely make out what you look like. All we can tell from that is that you are thin and like beer. The last picture of you, your head shot should be your main picture because it lets people see what you look like. Your second last picture is way too blury and should be replaced.

I would also recomend not spelling words with "z"s for "s"s. Web lingo and other strange spellings can make you seem a little immature.

As for the car/truck thing, is it an Acura sedan that has had the back half morphed into a truck?

Pic review please!
Posted: 11/4/2006 9:57:44 AM
Well, as a part time photographer I can honestly say that grainny, dark web cam shots up your nose are not a great first impression. You are a very atractive woman, you need to let people see that. Everyone knows someone with a digital camera if they don't have one themselves. Get a friend and do a fun photo shoot. Do your hair and make up the way you normally do, you don't need to do anything fancy. Go somewhere like a park or find a wall with a pretty colour to pose against. Make sure the light isn't too harsh or too dark, and start snapping! Stick to head shots or head and torso shots as the pics on this site tend to be on the small side and if you are too far away in the picture, its hard to tell what you look like. SMILE!! Have some fun with it. Try to get a shot of you laughing naturally. Take some shots from funny angles etc. When you are done, pic the best 3 or so and post them. I guarantee you will start getting more mail.

please review my profile!
Posted: 11/4/2006 9:51:44 AM
I would say that listing things like "I'm not into head games" or "I'm not looking for a sugar daddy" come off as negative. No one is looking for head games, it should go without saying. Any guy who is going to play games with you isn't going to read that and think he should move on to a profile of someone who is looking for head games, he will just know that he will have to step up his game to fool you.

Also, stating what kind of music you like is good. Listing the name of 15 or more specific bands is not. Save that for when you start messaging with someone, it can be a conversation point.

Your description is fine. I understand wanting guys to know you and not a pic, but its not realistic. Most users on this site don't bother reading a profile if there is no picture. They actually have stats posted on this site about how much more mail you will get with a picture. I think its like 70% more likely with a picture. It doesn't have to be a risque pic, or even a lot of pics. Just one decent head shot to give guys an idea of who they are reading about.

Please review my profile - be honest
Posted: 11/3/2006 11:41:37 AM
Heres my suggestions. I know I am a few years younger than you, but you are a cutie. My advice is to work on your pictures. They are either too dark or taken from a distance. Everyone knows someone with a digital camera. Do your hair and make up the way you normally do, find a nice place to take the picture (a park or even a wall with a colour you like), make sure the lighting is nice but not too harsh and start snapping! Try to stick to head and torso shots because pics on this site show up fairly small to begin with. Smile nice, make some silly faces, and don't be affraid to get creative with the angles etc.

Hope this helps.

Posted: 11/3/2006 11:33:35 AM
Being a part time photographer, I can honestly say that your photos need a lot of work. You are a very pretty girl, you need some pics that can show that. I don't know anyone who doesn't have a friend with a digital camera. You don't have to do anything spectacular, just put on a little make up, comb your hair how you normally do, and get your friend with the camera and go somewhere and take some pics. It could be a park or even up against a wall. Just make sure the light isn't really harsh and start snapping! Smile, make some goofy faces, take some from wierd angles or upside down. Then sift through them and pic the nicest ones. Upload them and watch how many more messages you get!

Web cams are great for chatting honey, but not for first impressions.

Also, I would recomend writing a little more in your description. You've got the bones of it, but wheres the meat?

how do you really choose
Posted: 11/3/2006 11:18:05 AM
I don't have a "type". I find myself messaging women of all types. What makes me message someone is if there profile makes me laugh or peaks my interest. As long as they are not repulsive, the looks don't really matter. I have dated women who I thought were mearly plain when I first met them, but once we started dating they were lovely.

Do men have a problem having sex with their partner when they are having their menestration? Why?
Posted: 11/3/2006 11:01:41 AM
EEEEWWW! ICKY EEEWWWW! I am the last person who will complain or let something stop me from being intimate with my girl. Hairy legs, no problem, bad case of the winds, sure! You name it, I can over look it all when it comes to someone I really care about. But sex during the crimson tide? No f'ing way! To be fair, I know from experience, I tried it once and it was the grossest thing I have ever done! It did not feel the same "inside" of her and after I was nauseated. I was covered in blood!

I say stay away from intercourse during that time of the month. If you are interested in keeping your man interested, I say perform orally for him while you are having your time of the month. When you are done, he will be so greatful to you that he will want to pleasure you in every concievable way to say thanks! (speaking from experience)

Posted: 11/3/2006 10:46:25 AM
Well, I am 25 yrs old and I can honestly say that taking a woman seriously (wether in a conversation or as a potential signifcant other) has nothing to do with wether or not we have slept together. In my past there have been women I have slept with that have gone on to be my closest friends who's opinions I value and respect above all else. Also one of the best relationships of my life was with someone whom I slept with first, and then started dating.

Would you turn off the game to have sex??
Posted: 10/31/2006 6:23:07 AM
Not a hockey fan, but I assume the question applys to whatever it is he is engrossed in, yes? So here is my answer. Regular season, game doesn't have to much importance to it, hell yes I would stop watching. If it were the semi-finnals or the big race of the year, I would not.

But it should be a two way street. If you are watching something and he wants to "get with you", you should be willing to make the same conssessions he does. If he stops watching the game when you come for it, you should stop watching what you are into when he comes for it.

did women kill chivalry? what do we need to do to bring it back?
Posted: 10/31/2006 6:18:58 AM
Many of my female friends say the same thing. I tell them that consistancy and acceptance is the key. Many of them say they want Chivilry but then don't know how to react/accept it when it is shown. If a guy is going to open a door, pull out your chair for you, etc. you can't react funny to it or nervous about it. You must accept that this is how you are to be treated and say "thank-you". A man who enjoys being chivilrous will bend over backwards to continue this behaviour IF you show that you appretiate it.

Boys and their mommas
Posted: 10/31/2006 6:13:54 AM
I must say that is a bit extreme. Being somewhat of a "mama's boy" I understand where he might be coming from. I personally have the greatest mother ever. For all she did for me and does for me I am always ready to help her in any way she needs because that is what she deserves. At the same time, even I have limits. I don't cancel plans for non-emergancy or non-serious stuff. The leaves can wait an extra day. If she is having an insulin reaction, or hurt herself, that is a different story.

Am I intimidating?
Posted: 10/31/2006 6:07:19 AM
Perhaps they feel that you are too busy to find the time to put into a relationship right now. I know if I meet someone who is working a tonne of hours and has a lot of hobbies that take up a lot of their time, I usually don't get involved. Call me crazy but when I am with someone or getting to know them, I want to be able to spend some quality time with them. I don't want them to have to schedual me in between their kickboxing class and their volunteering time.

Maybe you need to try and find a man who is as involved and busy as you are. It might make a good match.

how do i find out if my husband is cheating?
Posted: 10/31/2006 6:01:54 AM
I don't think married people should be members of an on line dating site. Gives the feeling of mistrust to the other party.

I can say this. Most men aren't that great at hiding things. If he is cheating, you will pick up on something.

Acceptable time limits for contact?
Posted: 10/31/2006 5:55:15 AM
I would say stick to the phone. I personally check my email infrequently, maybe twice a week. If you don't hear from the guy in a day or two and are really interested in seeing him again, I say call him. If you don't hear from him in a few days, don't be affraid to make a date with someone else. A first date is by no means a commitment. Dating seems to be a lost art. Just because you make a date with a new person doesn't mean you can't have a second date with the first guy if he calls you again.

It depends on more things than there are time to discuss. People change and grow all the time. Every event in your life helps to mould you and shape you. If he asked you out now, it is because at this moment in time who you are is appealing to him. In a years time, what appeals to him might have drastically changed depending on his experiences, and you are no longer what is appealing. Or you may have changed into a person who is not what he is looking for at that time. It is really a matter of chance and dumb luck that 2 people will fit together at any given time.

The human body breaks wind over 30 times a day. If you are going to spend any amount of time with someone in close proximity, sooner or later it is going to happen. For both men and women reading my response, my advise is as follows: To the breaker of the wind, excuse yourself and forget about. To the person present for the breaking of the wind, just ingore it.
