Hello Joe

To be honest your pictures look serious bordering on aggressive. All of them.
Try changing them to ones where you're smiling.

I'm not being rude by the way.
I'm being honest about how I saw them.

Get yourself in the forums and you will meet some nice people.

Good luck

offtopic I'm going a little off topic here, but... why? Do so many guys put on their profile ' hanging out' ?
Think about it. Young women very rarely say that. It they do, people would assume they are party girls or bi sexual.
Js, I don't think women find it attractive to think a guy is spending or will be spending a lot of time with "buds".
And these days a ' bromance ' perception can leave you out cold or worse.


* Yes,on the smiling pics :thumbsup: *

Do a quick google or some engine search with keywords such as:
"Online dating site profile tips"...?

I agree with everyone about your photos.

in regards to the 'hanging out with friends', I always think is he serious, or is he all his mates.

nothing wrong with friends at all,thats a good thing, but I wouldn't want a guy who was 'hanging out with his mates' all the time.

jmo though. :smile:

Hanging out is not the most flattering thing to offer someone to do. It comes off lazy and that the person is going to have to figure out what is going to be done and make the majority of decisions and maybe even pay for them. This does not inspire great confidence in your potential as a date. Using generic terms may make sense to you but loose in translation from male speak to female speak.

I agree the photos are not helping even though with a more engaging expression might have and entirely different response.

Update The new mix of photos is and improvement.

If you can tone down the wide eye just a little the long lashes will be a BIG draw with ladies with out looking a little over animated. Hit your closet and mix up the wardrobe. Color is good. Add a jacket in one for filling out your shoulders. And a full length shot that capitalizes on the lean without looking frail. You are fortunate you are young and thin, many would kill to be but, but you present it well it is more of an asset.

The green t-shirt that looks like military hand me down is not your best choice / color. Blue, red, and a fuller richer green will accent your coloring dark hair.

If you look at the viewer or toward your text by 10-20% it engages the reader in what you are saying whenever you post in forums on a lead shot.

That you follow advice you will find more people willing to engage with you and cheer you on. Welcome to Mingle . Good Luck.

I like the new pictures... Also your profile needs more... Sorry it does..What type of first contact emails are you sending out.
Is it a copy and paste email?
Is it just Hi or hello?
Anything like the above 3..Then you aren't going to get much if anything back.

If you are actually going to send out the first contact email put some work into it.
I mean read the interests and find something that you have in common that you can talk about.
Give us something to work with in that opening email...A lot of times you only get chance

Welcome and have fun out here

I'm not sure if you were insulting me but what's wrong with my green t shirt? I wish I understood all your words that probably were right, but I'm still studying English, I feel attacked :P
