I'm new to this and want this time to be different.
Any advice would be great!

Hiya D,

Welcome to the site.

IMO, your profile needs softening a little. It reads too aggressively and I am sure that is not the impression you want to give.

I know that some guys prefer non smoking/non drinking partners but I would not have stated that in a profile. It's listed elsewhere.

As a mother myself, I would also not list the age of my children. Not out of embarrassment or deception but because my children are precious and I am protective therefore their ages and anything else about them is on a need to know basis. You have listed that you have a child living with you in the menu and that's all someone needs to know at this stage.

It also helps if you say something about the person you are looking for e.g. age, height, personality traits etc. This will save you time filtering out incompatible men.

All the best in finding what you are looking for.

I would have to agree with that.
