ok, so I just started my profile today and it looks like I might need me a pic rating. Not too sure why but I'd like to see what you all think.

RATE My PROFILE!

why ask? with a screen name of way2confident? no offense but with a screen name like that i would not assume that it matters? or that you have assumed the answer already perhaps. good luck on here

Now I was about to say the same exact thing. sounds like you just want someone to stroke your ego a little more. Good luck with that.

nah, has nothing to do with that. Just taking advantage of what the site has to offer. oh, and ego strokes do nothing for me. I'd much rather prefer someone with a good convo.

thanks 4 the reply ladies. :)

Hi there, well I had a sticky beak at your pics and they are cool, but for me if i was after a man, I would pic the second one with the smile, as it looks friendly, relaxed and welcoming, the oneyou have on for me, makes you look to sure of yourself.
But thats just me,
I have made some fantastic friends on here and hope you do to

Helllllo josie68, well I AM sure of myself..lol But you really like that one huh? It's one of my favs too. Well, I think I'll take your advise and post it. Can't hurt right? Thanks for your input.

I took a peak at your profile and your "hello" greeting was a good start. It made me feel welcome and invited me to read on. But as I came across "I'm not a desperate dude by any means and I'm very selective with whom I spend my downtime with." the positive feeling dissipated. It gives the impression that you're labeling someone who may be seriously looking for a relationship here as desperate, and that she may not even try since you even stated that you are very selective. Maybe you can rephrase the first part with you're not in a hurry to jump into a relationship, but you are open to possibilities. Also, you may want to choose to delete the second part and just enumerate and explain the qualities you are looking for in a potential partner.

Anyhoo, I'm not going to rephrase your entire profile as it should come from you. But it pays a lot to be a bit positive about things. Welcome to Mingle and good luck on your search! Join us in the forums! :)

thank you red_lace for taking time out to check my flaws. I always pride myself on becoming a better person in all aspects and sometimes getting that extra feedback helps a lot. I try it and see where it gets me. At this rate you ladies are going to have all the women on here waiting in line with numbers numbers in hand. Thanks again.

IDK

I kinda interpreted his screen name to mean that he lacks confidence

yanno like, ya I'm way too confident - need to be more realistic...

but that's just me

because I am seldom overly confident - usually takes me awhile to muster up confidence in my personal life anyway - just a thought

your photos are OK but one of them has no head so I can suggest that if you want to put a full body shot on here to get one that is clearly you

and on your profile I think if spent a little more time (and I know it can be hard to get to it)describing your interests instead of just saying everything, it would make you more genuine

also with what you have written it would do to either tell a little about you, or what u r looking for, or who u r looking for - as far as being genuine


that's just my opinion

obviously it's your profile to do with what u want

Shiki rates this profile a C/C-. Here is why.

1. Never end a sentence with a preposition. As an exmaple, you write, "Hello everyone. I am here in hopes to find myself a new friend to spend some of my time with."

Please revise with:

Hello, everyone. I am here to find myself a new friend with whom to spend time.

2. Too wimpy. Look at the following sentence:

"Even tho[ugh] I am not looking for a long-term relationship, I am not opposed to the possibility of that."

Do you want a long term relationship or not? Make a stand and stick by it. Otherwise, you come across as very wimpy and wishy washy.

3. You seem to discriminate against heavyset women. As an example, you write, "Friendship comes in all forms and sizes." And yet, you precede all of this by stating what you are looking for romantically. It reads as if you would not be attracted to a heavyset woman, but would rather reduce her to a role of friend. Lose the line, and you come across as less shallow.

Hello!!
