I haven't really had the best luck when it comes to dating. So I was wondering if I could get some honest opinions about me, based on my profile (which sums up most of me). Is there something I need to change about me to become more appealing to women? Or have I just had extremely bad luck so far. Honestly I have only been on a couple dates my whole life so far, I can't seem to get women to like me more than "just a friend" and I'm getting tired of hearing, "I'm sorry but I only thought of you as a friend" or similar things. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Not sure what your doing wrong your profile seems fine except you left profession out but no biggie. Maybe your just not letting them know your interested if they just look at you as a friend idk

Rule #1, don't tell women you have only been on a couple of dates.

Show some pics doing something that is manly. Don't include dead animals. Ride a horse with a cowboy hat of something! Show your kung fu against a Bear, preferably a grizzly (using a trained one might be a good idea!).

Whenever you make contact with a woman, focus on her ... what she likes, does, wants, etc. You are not important unless she asks. Think before you answer anything. Do not give any answers that sound "gay".

most times guys that end up in friend zone is because they are seen as beta males---most gals are looking for alpha males--a guy thats strong with some bad boy in him. here is what happens they pick a alpha then try to change him into a beta. ''attraction is not a choice'' if she talks to you long enough she forms a opinion of you and she is not into you there is nothing you can do about it--on the other hand if she is into you there is nothing she can do about it---i see gals that pick total jerks that mistreat them-family and friends try to tell them and all she can say is ''BUT I LOVE HIM''.-the picking is EMOTIONAL not logical no matter what they claim--it has to do with a core issue that was formed in childhood and is distorted because of there age--getting a life coach is fast way to get things handled but its not always the cheapest--good luck- PS--WE MAKE CHOICES THE SAME WAY--SO TO MAKE BETTER CHOICES WE HAVE TO GET OUR OWN STUFF HANDLED FIRST--RELATIONSHIPS ARE NEVER ONE HANDED--

SO, Politically incorrect but HIlarious!!

and he's right!
Nothing sexier, than a man who can kick butt and chooses not to because he's enlightened!

Change is not good, You will always go back to being yourself! If you have to change into what they want then they want something different in the beginning!! If you are happy in who you are then they either except you or reject you"done deal"!! Best of Luck!

H Dustin ...Lose the fountain picture, put something under profession...If you're a student, say so...If you're in between jobs, say so....In your age bracket, professional goals are important

Welcome!..Luck, love, and happiness!!

On first joining:
'No smokers, no married females, age restricted,
live within 50 miles, etc.'

3 months later:

'Okay, an occasional smoker is alright, an occasional
spouse is okay, I can go to age 30, and you can live
anywhere in the state.'

6 months later:

'Smoke all you want outdoors, the spouse can go places
with us, I don't care about age and I do not care if
you are from the moon.'

a year later:

'Please, PLEASE, I will bat for either team now. Also
willing to travel to Nigeria.'

...*nodding "too" aggressively*

Just be yourself and never be willing to change for someone just to go out with them.
I think your profile is fine, a lot of time we do put guys in the friend zone and its actually just the way the guy acts. You are either to nice and to friendly and they depend on you to much...so don't be there every time they call you!!!

Your profile is fine. And I agree with the others who suggested just being yourself and not being willing to change just to find someone. I don't want to date someone who is pretending to be what I want, I want to date someone who IS what I want. And 21 is very young, there's nothing wrong with only having been on a few dates. When I was your age, I had never been on a date at all. So just be yourself, your time will come.

The great thing about being good friends with lots of people from the opposite sex? They have friends too and, providing you stay true to yourself, they (particularly women) will LOVE the opportunity to set you up with their friends. At the very least they will put in good words for you if one of their friends see you and is interested in you.

Invite some of those new girlfriends out with you and your friends, encourage them to bring a friend. Basically, enjoy female company - let them see you in your element, having fun, etc.

You'll find someone you really connect with at some point, but that's most likely only going to happen when you relax and enjoy yourself.

After you get through the scammers on here, It may take years& years& years& years, but just wait by your computer your time "may" eventually come?shhhhhhh i'm hunting a wabbottt!

Pesky wabbits needs wots of cawwots...

Just be vereeee vereeee vereeee quiet,there she is??? Oh heck a young one,gotta let her go,dang though cute and playful--out of range!! Darn,out of country too! Maby a wittle bait????? Point being "Just Have Fun"!

there is a thread for profile review. I don't usually do that so I will address the other portions of your post. I mention this because you might get a better response regarding your profile if you post also in that forum.

What I want to say, regardless of what changes you might make to your profile on the suggestion of others, do not change yourself to be more appealing to any particular woman. That won't work out. You want to stay true to yourself and get with someone who likes you the way you are. People who insist on trying to change others are usually too controlling and are deflecting their own shortcomings by trying "blame" others by saying that something is wrong with them (for example if there is an issue and instead of listening they try to deflect it right back into your lap like YOU are the problem). So don't buy into that. Hold out for someone who appreciates you.

Being thought of as a friend is to me a good thing. I can't imagine dating someone who was not already a friend. So that's a whole level of morality/mentality that I never adapted to anyway, and I have no desire to do so. Sounds like maybe you need new friends with a better and more in depth definition of what "friend" means.

mud wrestling photos usually work for me :)

And i thought being funny was outlawed on mingle!!

This is goooood!!

Naaaaaaaah,
Profile is all fine!

I guess you are "too nice",too available and all goody,goody?? Maybe thats why you end up in the friends zone!!??
I agree with the others...show the manly side of you,might just do that trick!


Good luck
