Well, you tell people to message you if you sound interesting, but to tell you the truth, you haven't said anything in there that is REMOTELY interesting. Tell us about yourself, what you do, what you want....don't go around saying "oh I have bi-racial children and not a lot of people like that" It's like saying you aren't happy with it either.

Perhaps a little cheerful information in your description, what you like to do, good personality traits, hobbies, likes, and desires....

well I felt like I had to tell upfront because when I first started this spoke to men until I told them about my kids then never heard from again. Some people still have issue about this. I love my kids and would never change who they are.

but thanks for the info should I keep it on there or not?

Nope, take it off. As for the guys refusing to speak to you after you tell them that, think of it as you just weeded out another guy that isn't good enough for you or your children.

I would also get rid of the explanation of the whole back injury part. That can be saved for during the conversation if it is brought up.

I just trying to be upfront and honest. I cant pretend to be "all good" when I cant do alot of things.

I dont know maybe your right should just be secretive and see what happens. Just trying to weed out those that I would not be compatible with.

I agree with 3oh3, the dating scene is about compatibility and chemistry between individuals. And you can't have compatibility or chemistry without letting them know what you're like. From reading your profile I got that you were disabled, you like movies, you've had back surgeries (and a failed relationship from said surgeries), you are a mother of multiple children and that the children were biracial.

None of those things really tell anything about YOU, they tell about your situation.

What part of the world have you been dying to see?
What's your favorite thing to cook?
What is the hobby that you've participated in the longest?
If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would it be and why?

These are the kinds of questions that tell a reader about you, give them something to empathize with and get them interested and invested in YOU.

hello,

they call me the profile doctor

and whilst examining your profile, i had to perform mouth to mouth, although your on your sick bed i have come up with a few ideas to help improve its "health"

that was sad wasnt it? yes it was

a few people have touched on it. email me if you find anything intresting

i know youve probably got a few emails because your good looking.

but there lying if they emailed you due to finding something they find intresting on your profile.

less is more thats what i think, and youve got that on your profile. but tell us more of the positives in your life. youve got children in your pics, so say something that really gets you upbeat,
tell us what your favourite food is
tell me what you like to do when your not busy

From the look of things, you're not doing anything wrong. It all sounds like you're doing the mom thing perfect.

thanks my kids are my life, and thats the way it should be, but I need to find me again. WOW that sounds bad, but for long time now that is who I am. Trouble is what do I do with myself when they are grown. Damn dont mean to sound so depressing

don't worry about tommorow think about today.

if you be your self on your profile. im sure you have got something intresting to say.

are you into comedy, are you a big harry potter fanatic? lol maybe not

but come on lets not go down that road of, im boring im this and im that. we all have something that someone else hasnt got. we are all unique to someone else.

some people on here probably can't have kids, some people on here are petrified to have tatoos.

so a little less of the negatives mustlovetats
