Agreed with the above two posts. Couple more pics clearly showing your face with a winning smile would go a long way.

Maybe indicate which kind music you like to play or listen.

Cheers!

Overall...I got intimidated by your tone (example: "get in my bad side I will go off"); not quite what you want a potential friend/partner to know right off.

Recommendation for INTERESTS: fishing, traveling, movies, walks to beach bars, music (minus rap), cuddling, attending my son's games [which kind of games?].

Also recommend editing your profile for proper spelling and grammar.

Hope that helped.
Cheers!

Your profile is BARE! Recommend filling it with info you're willing to disclose. Otherwise people would just keep clicking.

Cheers!

Here are some suggestions (wording and syntax). I took out some extraneous words which tend to distract from your message:

"It's been a while since I've tried online dating. I'm a single mother of a wonderful son, laid back and easy to get along with. I'm not into clubbing or partying, or easy hook ups; move on if you are.

I want a serious relationship, but I don't want to rush into it. Some people would dive into a relationship after the first date; I'd rather get to know who you are and go from there...

My absolute favorite place to be is the beach. But not MS's because it's nasty and stinky. I love Perdido Key, FL and Orange Beach, AL."

BTW, I don't know what "MS" is; you might want to spell it out for geographically ignorant folks like me. Hope that helped.

Funny reply poking fun at the original post; but nonetheless all true statements. A picture is worth a thousand words...and a picture showing a$$ will encourage at least 101 ways to sexual imagination.

There are also women who just want sex although they're not as predominant as men...after males a dominant, just like the rest of the animal kingdom...so you'll have to just be patient...good ones will come along.

To me, smoking is "cigarette smoking" whereas an occasional (once in a blue moon) cigar is not; but that's just me.

Yes I am separated and will not lie about it just to "score" more profile-looks from other women. And yes I turned down a date because I will not be ready for a relationship after my divorce (need time to readjust my life). I got a feeling the woman wanting to meet wants a date/relationship; hence my hesitation to meet her as I don't want to mislead her. Finally, I've been ready to move on for 3 years now.

Hope that cleared up your confusion.

OK, I just revised my profile. Let me know what you think! Thx.

Klc,

The gal wanting to meet me sounded too good to be true. Even I want to just keep email exchanges going before deciding to meet my current online-friend. But you're right, I'll give it a try! Thx for the encouragement.

I'm considering removing the "scammer" sentence to see how others will react.

Hi Leigh,

Yup...that's the movie. My military callsign is "The Donger" so I thought to have that as the headline. I think I'll put something else on later.

I will have to bear with it and wait 'til the divorce goes through. Believe me there is NO possibility of reconciliation in my case; but I didn't want to put that on there.

Thx for the positive remarks (great profile and captions to photos).

Cheers,
Danny.

Hi KLC, now that's constructive criticism, much appreciate that.

I've been chatting with a few women, including one who said she found me very interesting because of my "proper" English. Another wants to meet and was very aggressive about it, so that raised a red flag. Only one has been doing things with me and we've become platonic friends; but that's one out of a couple of dozen who've written me.

My "serial killer" disclaimer is my way of telling people right up front, so as to put them at ease (due to scammers and bad experience they may have had).

The headline is quite provocative if you don't know what 80s movie it came from, one of my all-time favorite.

Again thx for your insightful remarks. I'll give it some more thoughts before revising it.

Cheers,
Danny.

Hi Soufiehere,

Thx for chiming in and the suggestion. I'd thought about explaining the "separated" status -- I'm one official document away from getting a court date, i.e. I owe my lawyer a parental plan sign by both of us before all required paperwork can be submitted to the court. But I thought that was too specific to disclose, and who would want to read about that anyway.

I'm as honest as can be on my profile and am always hoping to make new friends; but I guess people, nowadays, are always suspicious first in any possible contact with strangers. I don't blame them at all.

Cheers,
Danny.

Hi all,

I was guilty of criticizing members who asked the community to "rate" their profiles. So my apology...why? Because I think I have a possible issue with my own profile.

I don't get much initial contacts or dialogue with women. Could it be because of my current status as "separated?" Well I'm not gonna lie about it.

Or could it be because I offer too much info up front, and it is overwhelming the reader?

If you're serious about helping out a fellow Mingle2 member, please take a gander. If you're just an opportunistic-basher, then move on...this is not the profile you're looking for, as in "these are not the droids you're looking for!"

Thx in advance.
Cheers,
Danny.

Not all of us a scammers! There are some serious gems in the rough...just keep looking...oh, do you see me??? I'm the glowing gem to your left! =D

Hi,

Has anyone upgraded on this website? I received a weekly Mingle2 email stating "someone wants to meet" me; and of course the only way to see who it is would be to upgrade, i.e. begin paying a monthly fee.

I'm just as happy with the free amenities on this site; already having a couple of women wanting to meet me. So I don't see the need to spend my hard-earned $ to upgrade.

Just curious as to the added benefit(s) of upgrading.

Cheers,
Bikerpilotdanny.

OK, what scam did they pull on you???

Is that you...Santa Claus?

You & I both my man!

Comments (meant to be constructive to help you enhance your profile):
1. You should have at least one close-up picture to show your face clearly. All your pictures show you kind of far away from the lens.
2. Revise your profile (edit for proper spelling & grammar).
3. In your "interests" column: what is "d" and "jing?"

Hope the above comments help. Good luck.

Aaahh...the typical "cute" woman looking for the "perfect" guy! Physical appearance is like a car...it depreciates over time!

As for your search for the "perfect" prince charming...check out the last photo on my profile.

No...I'm not jaded/grumpy/a$$hole, just being realistic.

Good luck in your search.

I need to see this marriage dilemma through to a logical/favorable end!

Your turn. I need (fill in the blank)...
