I changed my profile with this... "I am a cancer survivor... I'm funny, smart, with an knack for telling jokes and creating characters. In short, I'm like nobody you've ever met before. I'm 1 in a 1,000,000." I'm hoping it sounds better.
I will reply here since you banned me from the other thread. You completely misunderstood what I was saying. In no moment I bad mouthed your work, i was merely doing a comparisson. A profile is like an add, but in this case the item you are selling is yourself. I was telling you to imagine that your profile is the same as a pitch for one of your stories, how would you convince other people to 'buy' you.
People forget that what they say is for the benefit of others reading the profile, not themselves, their own opinion of themselves. A profile is all about the opinions of others. They are ones doing the shopping.
A profile is about why someone would want to buy into your life.

So true.

Sounds a bit like someone living in fear of cancer.
If you are afraid of something you will attract it to you.
Spend time amongst large trees and try to feel a joy and amazement in the beauty of nature.
You are you.
Let go of fear, embrace love.
Embrace life, as water embraces, without judgement.

I have to agree with some of the other posters. Recently I answered your first pitch at this by doing some research in your area and gave you some very viable ideas about who, what, when, and where. Not a word back, but hey, that's the world. People who are truly one in a million take the time to be courteous. Don't lean on being a cancer survivor. It gets old, even with the most patient and understanding people. Take the hint(s). I deserve an acknowledgement for the time I spent answering your questions. Be a gentleman.

Yes... Yes it is... I'm looking for a date, why would I lie? Plus, I use my real name to market myself, network myself and what not.

It's my business cell number, my personal assistant screens my calls. His name is Frances Vandersnoot, very stuck up.

I'm proud of many things but I don't put it up on my profile,
I'm proud I survived childbirth twice.
I'm proud I won a gold medal in swimming competition,
It's your business poster what you want to highlight in your profile,
Yes it sure is a great thing to be a surviver of cancer,

Some people jokes are not funny to others,
I sometimes have black humour but thete are certain things I don't joke about as things have a habit of black fireing,
