What you've got is OK -- but you need more. I don't really get a sense of who you are; more like a general, vague idea but it's not solid enough to make any sort of assessment.

Maybe a little more about your life, about what you want from the site -- picture yourself 5 years from now. Where do you want to be? What kind of life do you want to have? What do you need to do to get there?

But, hey, I'm biased. My profile is 1482 pages long. Meh, writers write, right?

Good luck. You've got a bit of a foundation there. I'd like to see you build something a little more cohesive on it.

I won't try to speak for everybody, but -- if I had a nickel for every profile I've read that was SO empty and vapid that it wasn't even worth the 4 seconds it took to read it -- the ones that say "I don't know what to write here" or "Anything you want to know, you'll have to ask" or "I'm not going to fill this out until I see if it's worth it" or "I'm laid back and easy going" or that sort of thing -- I could buy myself a dozen Saturn rockets and have enough money left over to go to Arby's.

If someone isn't interested enough to read a few paragraphs about you, is that someone you really think is worth your time?

I don't know. My profile is long, and one of the reasons for that is that it WEEDS OUT the ones who either don't have the time, the patience, or the literacy skills to read it. I wouldn't want to deal with those people anyway.

"Informative yet simple" is good -- but I think you're coming up a little short on the "informative" part. Just one guy's opinion.

Honestly, there is no correlation whatsoever between age and how good or bad a profile is. Most of them are, sadly, absolute drivel -- the same phrases, parroted over and over ad infinitum, page after page after page. I wish it were otherwise.

Yours isn't like that -- you come across as more "real," more of an individual, at least in bits and pieces, and, while it seems to me that you put some thought into what you wrote, the end result is still a bit sketchy.

This is not intended as criticism, just as a personal observation. Which you did ask for.

You are very pretty. I suggest a smile, it would really brighten up your profile.

Hey, don't be upset. I just read your profile. Its looks pretty much ok to me. You're very clear with your choices. And thats good.

Lonestar is correct, when he said you're lucky not to get any sarcastic replys today. I've seen quite a few myself. And if you hang in the forums, you'll notice that yourself.

There's nothing to be upset here. Cheer up lady. Enjoy and have fun here.

And hey, welcome to this site.

I usually dont take those kind of people seriously and just to let you know theres actually a big age diference between us so what i should have on my page and what you should have, is a bit different
and honestlyu people can be sarcastic if they want to why should anything thats not helpful matter to me anyway but thanks

I'm having a hard time understanding how a person's age plays into this. A profile is supposed to give you a chance to say who you are, why you're here, what you're looking for, what you're not looking for, etc....to give us a chance to get to know about you. I just don't see how a person's age impacts on what they "should" (or "should not") have in their profile....??
