Calling all OLD profile pros....

OK Everyone, I've been tweaking my profile on POF and since you all have a great perspective, I wanted to post it here and get your opinions, suggestions. Take a look - I'd love to get your thoughts!


I’m looking for that man that I know is out there for me. You are that guy who has confidence and the character to back it up. You challenge me with your personality and wit- if you can make me laugh we would have a great start! You’re a family man with strong values who is as content hanging around the house as he is going out. I’m looking for a guy who treats me as well as I treat him. I have a great personality, tend towards a cup is ½ full attitude, and I care about those I love. I’m up for most anything fun, whether it’s being outside, exploring new places and hobbies, picnic by a waterfall, cooking together, a great meal out- the possibilities are endless!

You have some good things there, but I think i would reverse the order. Tell them what YOU have to offer first, then tell them what you are looking for. And add some specifics.


Here are 2 lines from my profile..."I love baseball and I am a diehard hockey fan (should have been born a Canadian!) Love to ski (pretty good at it) and like snowboarding (pretty bad at it). " So I get a lot of responses from guys who like to ski and like baseball and hockey. Which, considering the above, is just fine with me! :)

Thanks! I'll tweak it a little more. Since my divorce is final now I'm ready to start back at dating.... SLOWLY! So far I have chatted with a few guys online. Maybe one potential but he is 1 1/2 hours away. Does anybody else feel like OLD is like dating in fast forward? I'm trying to find out through chatting if we have things in common and they want to know if I'm a good kisser before we even meet! Talk about Mars- Venus!
