I don't think you will have much success with this for lots of reasons

Although I think your profile is ok, there are a few points that are less than desirable. First, remove the Not Sending $ from tagline. That is for the less than honest people who will not care about whether that is there or not. Second, in your write up under (You) where you say you are looking for above average intelligence. That is a slam towards women who are not above average. Third - in your write up under (Rules). You don't give demands to women or that will drive them away. Remove that part.

Thank you very much Poetrywriter for the attention to detail and the honest response... i will put those suggestions in the bin... and will more then likely implement them. Your points are well taken and can be "gently" discussed or uncovered in the first conversation or two... Thx and I was laughing as reading... btw.. thanks again. and i just saw.. i should have posted this as a reply.. i am fairly new here .... so forgive me...

:thumbsup:

Just to name a few...

First.... As Poetry said, your heading about not sending $$$. Those seeking money don't read your profile and the point is to attract the kind of woman you want, not focus on what you don't want. Maybe write something a little more positive and lighthearted.

Second... You repeated your list of interests, you only need to list them once.

Third.... Intimate encounter equates to sex as far as the virtual world is concerned. It's another way of saying you're looking for a roll in the hay/one night stand. Leave it if this is the case. Eliminate it if that's not what you intended.

Forth... Your profile is very technical and almost robotic. I'm not sure how else to describe it other than that. I don't sense any humanness, feelings, or realness. Woman will want to get a sense of who you are as a person. The best way to do that is to write something about yourself in a more conversational way.

Other than that, it looks like you put a lot of thought and work in it, that's a good thing. But I agree with Freebird that it's not likely to attract women. It will mostly likely deter them.

I agree with Poetry about the phone. Rather than saying they must be turned off, say something about how you like to give undivided attention by turning off your phone. I don't agree with Poetry about eliminating the part about looking for an above average woman. That's a personal preference, though you may want to word it differently... looking for a woman that has wit and enjoys intellectual conversations.

Best of luck to you. waving

Looks like everyone hit the highlights. Have fun and be open. Chem engineers can be a bit of a course grind (not saying you are), but I've worked with several as Systems Analyst, back in the day, when we were called Analists. Not sure why.... IMO, though, you might want to change your handle... some people have never met Remarkable! You get my drift! Nuff said!
