What should be changed?

I realize you're after an intimate encounter... Which we all are depending on how you conceptualize that, but I don't think a shirtless bathroom pic with no bio is going to get you very far. Think fantasy... Personality is just as important as physical attraction for most people... Even during sex, emotional connection and physical stimulation go hand in hand, obviously everyone differs regarding the right blend and combination with a partner... But it's got to be there.

I'd add some more pics.. Fill out the bio.. Provide something for emotional adhesion.

Good luck

More info man.. Fill out all of the fields and add some more pictures.. Maybe pictures with the added filters (neck chain and hat) is who you want to attract... I'd just be cognizant of who you're hoping to meet here.

First I want you to know I truly appreciate your candor. it sounds like you have had some really challenging experiences, and that you are still processing through many of the circumstances surrounding your past. The ability to be open about your story is huge, truly a big deal. However, I don't think your bio is the right place to move into those spaces. It doesn't read as though much distance exists between you and your story, not yet at least. When I read it, it sounds really raw.. And I don't think that will serve you well here.

I'd just hate for you to have a really negative experience because you're attracting the wrong kind of people. I get we are all broken, in many ways, deeply. But I wouldn't lead with that. Let the experience be fun... I know many people believe relationships are founded on trust. While I agree. I know all of my lasting deep friendships and successful relationships started with playfulness... Not trust... Go play with someone.. And you'll build trust along the way.

Bless you, I hope you finish healing, And find what you're looking for.

James… I might come off like an ***… But I want to be honest and I'm going to shoot straight. You took the time and risk to post here, I'll risk you being angry with my feedback.

First, lose the profile pic, take one where you're smiling, lose the hat and sunglasses… It's too Douche Bag.… You can use the picture of you and your buddy on the balcony, but crop out your buddy… Or at least crop out the Raiders hat… JK… Not really… The Raiders are barely cool in California… I'm not sure what South Carolina looks like regarding Raiders fandom, I'm guessing the populace of Raiders fans are outliers.

Change your username. Be creative. Don't be dumb.

Add more pictures, smile, have pictures of you having fun.

There's got to be more you're interested in being on man on man aggression, and fitness. If there really is nothing else than leave it, don't be fake.

For your bio section… Grammar matters, and for a guy that enjoys alpha male hand-to-hand combat, you seem really passive based on your self description. The whole point of the bio is to pique some interest and hopefully build curiosity, in my opinion. Use a thesaurus.

I hope that's helpful, good luck.

Be candid
