Would anyone mind taking a look at my profile? I seem to be meeting a lot of men who are the exact opposite of what I am looking for. I'm starting to think I'm giving the wrong message.
As a slight sidebar - I was recently talking to someone and we were getting along famously. I then sent an email in which I mentioned my son and the emails stopped. Do a lot of men just forget to read either A)The part of my profile where I say that I'm a working mom or B) the bottom portion which indicates whether or not I have a child? It was just a very frustrating experience. Thank you in advance! |

Na they're just douche bags.. Read part of it and are more drawn to the physical aspect of your picture than the intellectual aspect of your profile.. *shrugs* Everything happens for a reason, better you found out sooner rather than later right?

I think you have a great profile, straight and to the point. You will get all kinds of mail, but you will just have to take your time and weed through the bad. It helps to post a lot in the forums, gets you 'out there' so to speak.
You could add a few more pics, but other than that. Great job!!

Your profile is fab
 That guy who stopped the messages was a jerkoff that needed to get a life

I just think that they don't read. I had someone message me and ask me questions that i outright answered in my blurb. I straight up asked if he had read it or not and sure enough he said no and proceeded to ask me to hold on so that he could read it.

Alot of men don't read the profiles at all...they look at the pic and decide whether or not they wanna contact you. Charming, I know
 Just be glad he stopped talking to you now, cause you know he wasn't what you were looking for since he bailed the moment you mentioned your son. There's lots of good people on here, just keep looking.

I like the profile...although, personally I wouldn't have written so much. Some things we need to find out on our own..make it more of a mystery...men like a challenge..sometimes the chase is better than the catch...I bet you'll get more e-mails if you break the ice with a question.. like famous movie quotes that you can steal off of the IMBD site.
The fact you have Children shouldn't be an issue..unfortunately for me someone with Asthma..the smoking would literally kill me. and try and find someone who is willing to take your picture...holding a cell phone is kinda tacky..I used a ladder and a camera with a timer for the BMW shot..just an idea.. |

Thanks very much, I don't usually have a lot of time to write in the forums - I made a special point to post today. But I agree, I think I have to make time. From what I have read so far today, there is a better quality of people in the forums. I guess it speaks for itself - these are people who want to be here and meet people for more than a booty call.

Yes, stick to the forums... not only is it a lot of fun but we know one another in here. It's a community.

I definitely see your point, I'll have to revamp the picture soon. And I understand completely that some folks will not entertain dating a smoker - I wouldn't expect an asthmatic to hang around for that. I think I'll retool a little in the coming days. Thanks! |

btw, your profile is great and you are a beautiful woman. His loss for bailing on you. How sweet of you! I really do appreciate all of the kind words. I'm glad that this didn't come across as a "give me attention" kind of thing - I'm trying to find someone of substance on here and I am/was on the verge of giving up. I'm glad all of you took the time to try to help me! |

Profile looks awesome!!! Really!!!
Maybe a bit long...I found that most guys don't like to read alot..they look at the pic, think you are cute, sexy..whatever..and e-mail you. Without reading the actual text. I had a long profile..and I had to "dumb" it down..cuz most guys didn't read it anyways...just looked at my pics. Thats just my two cents. |

It looks fine to me. Sorry you're having to weed'm out but I'm up against the same task. At least you're young, good looking, and interesting...
 Good luck and welcome to the site.

You have outlined yourself and what you are looking for very well and your pic is just you which is great as well. Good luck! I know how you feel and have had similar luck. The pessimist in me says to deactivate my account but at the same time the optimist says it will happen. So I guess I will stay! |

I think your profile is great and to the point. Some people get cold feet when you might actually want to meet! Just try to be patient and when the right one comes along it will be worth the wait!!
