Need Some advice Please
Posted : 20 Jan, 2010 03:56 PM

Hello ladies, I'm new to all this profile (and even "dating")stuff. I just wondered if any of you would mind taking a look at my profile and give me some helpful tips or criticisms on how to improve it. I hear pic's are important so I shared the only ones that weren't shredded. I would appreciate any input. Thanks and have a blessed day! edw6265

Hi Edw - I think your profile is great. If you haven't been here very long, you will find that nothing happens quickly, as a rule, on these dating sites. Since you said that you are looking for "anything", the fact that you are separated should not be an issue with anyone if they are just wanting to become friends. Many of us would not respond to someone wanting a relationship or marriage with any one who is still married (as in separated). Only other thing I could suggest is adding a couple more close-up pictures of yourself.



One other thing, if you are wanting to make friends on here you might consider adjusting your mail setting to "any" so that more people can contact you.

Hello and welcome edw6265.



Your profile is good - it tells me about you and your interests and what is going on. You sounded honest, which is always a good thing. I like your pictures and how you explained them.



My suggestions are: Get a few more recent pictures. This is not a criticism of your existing pictures, just a suggestion.



Most people on this site who are looking for a serious relationship would not respond to someone who is separated. I think you did a good job of outlining that you wanted to go slow and were not looking to jump into anything, which is a big plus.



Don't forget to update your profile as you go along - even if it is just tweaking here and there.



Questions for you: What is an AS degree? And what is nanar? I know what PB is.

Thanks everyone for your kind feedback. I will make some changes right away. Oh- a nanar is a banana and a AS is what my son calls an associate of applied science degree.-haha

Hi edw6265, welcome to the community! :applause: Your profile content is good. I like the emoticons.... you help make it seem like you're talking to us, and we can feel your mood too! Not much else to say that the others haven't shared (all good suggestions...) Hope you enjoy, and you will definitely make some friendships the more and more you interact on the forums. Good luck with getting settled in your new home and here!
