Interesting profile.

bit of advice, try not to accuse all women of being corrupt and liars, pls. U r coming on too strong about that point, so maybe be a little more politically correct in how u phrase it.

Maybe something along the line of, I have a wonderful seven year old son, who I love dearly and I am looking for someone who is good with children and willing to be part of both our lives.

Along those lines. Good Luck :thumbsup:

Not a bad start, but I would remove pictures and information about your son. There are some weird people out there and you don't really want that information on a site like this. Make the profile about you!

I'd also take the following part out, as it's pretty negative:

"i guess i am just tired of control games and women who view my relationship with my son as an interruption. which is why i say love me, love my son. and no lying please. i am sooo sick of being lied to. honesty is extremely important to my boy and i. how would i teach my son to be good and true-hearted if i surround myself with bad people? no bad people!! "

Man, where's the love???

First of all, and I am very guilty of this, you need to become a fan of the paragraph.

I disagree about taking down all pictures of your son. One is enough and preferable like the one with you in it. I would not identify him by name.

The worlds is full of liar, cheaters and screwed up people. You do not need to mention that you are weeding them out.

You might try to say things in a more funny or relaxed way. Like I say, "I don't drink. I'm not a good drunk. I don't smoke. I'm allergic. I don't do drugs. I have morals".

You're a handsome guy with a lot to offer. I am sure you could go into more detail about what you like to do for fun, etc.

I liked where you gave a shout out to single moms. That was really good and positive.

Mind you I am a dating school reject so take all this with a grain of salt.

Many can testify I have had many not so serious relationships on here and now I am in a serious one. A fellow military "brother".

Ok unless I missed something this is a rewrite and you were a soldier now a contractor?

Probably want to change the lead in line. The right to claim soldier passed when you mustered out. Proud Vet is cool. Thank you for your service.

Probably want to write the profile about you and not your kid. great to want to be a good father but it kind of comes across like this is a new effort for you so not helping your case. Especially when it is your Dad holding your kid not you and you are admitting to picking some less than desireable types at least for a first date.

Not wasteing my breath debateing the merits of your pot card but that is going to be and exit visa for a lot of female/parents and potential clients. Hardly makes you look like a smart business man.

Probaby want to write a profile about your needs and interests in a concisely organized way that is more upbeat and doesn't repeat something you didn't need to say in the first place.

Sorry I can't find more to like. I think you are probably trying and the effort will get better. Good luck. Don't give up. Welcome to Mingle.


PS. You are a cute guy ditch the Army handme down grey undershirt and add a sharp looking contractor's polo and you will make a better first impression.
