Hmmm, lets see here; for one, you're separated (not yet divorced).. looking for love, although most likely not even healed from the previous relationship (that's not fully dissolved yet), you don't have anything stated in your profile (if people have common grounds of interest, you will naturally find much to discuss) and you need more pictures (us females are visuals just like men).

I agree ... my first impressions when I read a 'if you wanna know something, just ask' profile is that the person is expecting me to do all the work -- ie ask all the questions, take all the initiative, and that gets tiring. I'm much more likely to respond to a profile that lists specific things that might pique my interest (hobbies, likes/dislikes, etc).

And to be really honest (since you asked for feedback), the empty profiles come across as 'lazy' to me - and I'm sure that's not the impression you want to leave with the reader. Yes, creating a profile is a lot of work, it's weird and frustrating and can feel awkward to talk about yourself - but your goal is to give us a 'snapshot' of who you are, and THEN we can ask you for further details to initiate deeper conversation.

Hope that helps ... good luck with your search!

You need at least one more pic... tell what you are interested in & then you can find someone with the same interests to talk to...

Just off the top of my head, I would say one thing is since you joined in Oct. of 2007, you should have more than 9 posts so far. You need to get more active in the forums where people can notice you and get a feel for the kind of person you are.
