okay so i've been told a few times that my profile goes into too much detail and nobody is going to read it all... well i feel like a guy truly interested will. now i know there are those guys that look at the pictures and then make their decision (which by the way, i think if you're on a dating website, you shouldn't be allowed to be THAT picky), but i know there are guys out there that read the profile. i like to talk, and i really like to talk about myself (call me conceded, i know) so sometimes my profile is too elaborate. i just need to know if i should take away any unnecessary information, or even if i could write some more.

i'm looking more for male responses, but of course ladies i'd love to hear from you too. any insight is appreciated. and feel free to address any issue, not just the one at hand.

peace, love, and chicken grease

well see im kinda reversed on dates. i clam up frustrated

and i understand the cig situation. but i would prefer a guy who doesn't smoke, so instead of ruling that out completely... i give some the chance to quit

Remove pics #3, #4, #5, #7 and #10. If you have pets, nature shots, car, etc. add those.

Remove the following paragraph:

"Cigarettes are a huge no though... unless you're trying to quit or willing to give it up for me. But more on the relationship side of me, I'll never cheat or lie. I've been hurt too many times to do that. My biggest problem with males is that they dont commit as much as I do in a relationship. I like to get calls everyday, and texts if that's not possible. And when we are out together, let's hold hands and give random kisses. I like to be in the relationships that people are jealous of."

Change "coming see me as often as possible." to "coming to see me as often as possible." Someone might misinterpret the meaning. :tongue:

Add the sentence"I like to be in the relationships that people are jealous of." after the word "commitment!"

You should be good to go!

wow you're kinda harsh telling me what pictures to remove. this is a dating site about ME, not my dogs or my car.

and i am not removing the deal about the cigs... sorry yall but that's a HUGE thing in my book and im not settling for less.

but i did make a few changes according to what yall have said, and i thank you for those suggestions so far!

the thing about the smokes....you can't give it up for someone else..like drinking issues and drug issues the person has to give it up for themselves....

i understand that. i really do, so many people in my family smoke. i just didnt want to put "no smokers" and rule them all out, because i dont mind a very light smoker or someone that is trying to quit.

then change out what you have with that statement..it'll make you seem much more amicable and less demanding....which is more appealing than if you do "this" you must change for me

Those of us who can read, and who want to do more than gawk at pictures, appreciate it when someone takes the time to provide relevant information about themselves.

I personally believe there is no such thing as a profile which is "too long," but mine is 1882 pages, so I may be biased.


now i know there are those guys that look at the pictures and then make their decision (which by the way, i think if you're on a dating website, you shouldn't be allowed to be THAT picky), but i know there are guys out there that read the profile.


There are. Yours is good. I get a sense of who you are, and of what you're looking for. It's well-written and very clear and coherent.


i like to talk, and i really like to talk about myself (call me conceded, i know) so sometimes my profile is too elaborate. i just need to know if i should take away any unnecessary information, or even if i could write some more.


Your writing is good, easy to follow, and I don't think adding a little more would be a bad thing. I don't see your profile as "elaborate" at all -- that conveys an impression of being complicated, meticulously overdetailed, convoluted -- but your profile is none of those things, not to me, anyway.


i'm looking more for male responses, but of course ladies i'd love to hear from you too. any insight is appreciated. and feel free to address any issue, not just the one at hand.

All I can say is: Good Job. I wish more people would take the time and effort on theirs as you have on yours.
