judging by the OP's profile pic, i'd say he's already touched on the answer since he seems to be checking his own pulse. slaphead


What? I don't understand this at all.


laugh

BP 90 over 60 smokin


Chris says this photo was taken at a movie set. Maybe he's a star and that is not even his hand?

Could be a assistant holding his head up between takes?

You started out with a negative attitude. That won't get a positive response back.

Thanks everyone, for making me feel worse about myself. Much appreciated.grumble

As I stated you had a choice to use this as a learning tool..

Do you think any one of us hasn't had to deal with tough love..Whether on the internet or in the real world?

I can speak for myself I know I have and while I sure didn't like it I and the damn crow I had to eat wasn't to my liking at least it wasn't out here no one knew me. I was at an office meeting where everyone knew me.

You opened the door with a rant.. Own it embrace it and do something about it...
Your call. I hope you choose to take a look in the mirror and decide what you want and go for it with no negativity...

And about what was written on my profile. I didn't even write it. Someone on another forum on another dating website wrote it for me. She said this was the kind of thing that would show confidence in me.

C'mon Chris, you had to know from the outset that you were going to take a ribbing. Although they were having a little fun at your expense, I don't think anybody wanted to hurt your feelings.

My two cents would be: Lighten up, have a little patience, and quit fishing with a net and start fishing with a line...it'll make you more attractive to women, I guarantee it.

If EVERY woman you try and speak to gives you the cold shoulder, maybe it ain't the women. You feel me dawg? (I :heart: Ebonics)

Think about it...add a little levity to your approach...take rejection in stride.

Ok... takes deep breath...

Ok come here Grasshoppa...flowers
THe first mistake was letting a woman right your profile..Only you can describe who you are and what you want...

Here is a tip I got long ago, when I first came onto the internet. and you are an actor so I know you will get what I am saying to you...


Writing a great profile is to understand your audience. Your audience can't hear you, no voice inflections, they can't see you so they can't see the humour or anger, they can't smell you .. All they got is the written word and it is your job to make those words come alive. And only you can do that about you.



1. go deep into yourself find who you really are...

2. Now you are doing to describe what you like to do in the interests. make it as long or short as you want.

3. Now in the body, Write about who you are and what you are, your style should come out in your writing of you...

4 speak about who your "perfect partner" should be..

5 Save it.

6 walk away

7 come back and read it while you are reading it ask yourself if this is what you are wanting to put out into the world...

I truly mean this with an open heart I wish you well.

I read your profile and read your thread and really if this is you then you have a long row to hoe before you are going to gain any ground in the dating world. Maybe it is how it is written but it sure is not doing you any favors.

Everyone who goes on line to date has a learning curve so I would not necessarily give up and feel you don't have a shot.

Sitka has some valid remarks and since she is not trying to score points with you I would thank her profusely for her effort and see it for the gift it is. Self reflection is very difficult and if someone is nice enough to try and spare your feelings but show where you are falling on your own sword it would pay to listen and grow as a person.

I look at your interests and think if I was your peer age if it would attract me and I have to say I would run the other way. And I tend to like theater and actors and respect the profession of it all. It is a hard life and the isolation is very tough on relationships. You have to know Very few women want to be the fodder for a comedian so that alone ranks right up there with dog catcher and mortician. It is not to say you can't contribute your talent in threads or inject small does in a really good profile you just probably want to step out of looking like a character and be a little more mainstream. Make it very clear you are and almost forty year old professional that isn't using the medium to write material and see what sticks.

You are not a bad looking guy but come on a current haircut and some shots in maybe some mainstream clothes would give you a better chance. A smile would beat the hell out of the competition and up your responses by a huge margin. There are other basic things people like or dislike in profiles. You have learned pretty fast one no-no is putting anyone in a background shot.

All I will say further is read the new member threads; experienced people write the advice there to actually help you. Listen in the forums until you get the vibe of people then post in forums. It will get you views and people will be less afraid of you. Many of the best people have been here a while because they won't take up with just what ever is slopped out there for consumption.

Good Luck.

AND if you are going to commit social suicide whining on line you have to own the results. One thing about people on line they will delete you like stage hook if you want to abuse yourself on line.
