Yes, your photo is lovely rbeas. I'd consider adding one or two more pictures for the purpose I've shared on other profiles... sometimes when there's only one photo, it can move people to question as to whether or not a given profile is real.
As KNenagh said, adding text might be helpful. Describing more than physical characteristics would be good. What type of woman are you, essentially, and what qualities do you appreciate in a guy before deciding who you'd befriend?
Your profile is well done hm... nicely stated goal(s) too.
The pictures of you are very nice. The only photo I would consider deleting or replacing is the one of you and your children... it's not really safe to have their faces online.
Have a lovely holiday, and all the best to you and your family!
Yes, the picture 'works' because it's in the light of day so the colouring around you (whether that be from the greenery or from your shirt) brings out your hazel eyes.
Now if you replicate that photo wearing a BIG smile, that would be even better
Good luck John!
^^^^ My October 18th response.
I see you added a photo of you smiling. Nice job John
I'm not sure however, that you need to use the word 'easy' so frequently to communicate you're easy going.
The only other change I'd consider is to your statement... "I like men that I am comfy with right away." I might rephrase that if you'd like to keep its essential meaning.
While I have no question as to your meaning, "right away" doesn't necessarily communicate 'relaxed and easy going.' The statement seems superfluous to what you communicate concerning the type of man you're seeking.
"well I'm a independent paraplegic. do not need any pitty"
Consider refocusing your headline on your qualities as a man (example: Romantic,Easy Going,Independent Guy) not on your body or 'condition.'
I wouldn't focus on disability but on my abilities, and who I am as a person. Yes, it's important to mention you have paraplegia, yet to say "I am a... paraplegic" makes it sound as if you believe the paraplegia defines you. If you believe it does, most likely, other people will too.
The paraplegia doesn't define your personhood; the paraplegia is something that's a part of your life, something you live with, but it's not YOU. I don't think this is a matter of semantics or of being 'politically correct.' YOU are not your 'disability.'
In your narrative I might say something like "While I live with paraplegia, I'm a very independent man who ......" I wouldn't make that your opening sentence though. Remember, you are a man first... the paraplegia is important to mention yet it's secondary to the man you are.
At the end you say you're seeking someone who can "see beyond my disability." Can you see past it? If so, consider rephrasing that last statement, that once more focuses on the paraplegia. It sounds like you simply wish to be accepted for who you are as a person, just like everyone else here!
Post at least two pictures and smile in them so you're more likely to attract a happy person. In your current photos your affect is flat.

Hi Mandy. Overall, your profile is nice. Welcome to the site.
A few suggestions...
Consider rephrasing "I'm not a mean person " to something like I'm an approachable person who's easy to talk to
There's nothing about you that gives off the vibe you're 'a mean person,' so, again, I'd just rephrase that statement.
I also would seriously think about not posting a photo that has your/a child in it. While there are a lot of lovely people online, there are also 'some not so nice or well intentioned people,' as I'm sure you know.
You have some nice photos yet if you're able, maybe post some that have clearer focus... photos that are less blurry.
Good luck to you. I hope you find what you're seeking!
Oh, I thought you were talking about having been blessed by a priest or something but, I see you've specified Non-religious.
It's good to hear you've ordained your manhood 'quite blessed.' Not just blessed, but quite blessed. That's really, really good!
By declaring yourself as such, it sounds like you're already set. What can anyone say? I usually have more to offer in terms of a profile review but, no, not here. You've said it all!
Being a poet myself, I can fully appreciate your poetic write.
Yet, as others have said, write more directly about yourself (and then perhaps place an excerpt from this poem, or from another you've written, into your profile).
So, consider not using a poem as your entire profile self description.
There's nothing wrong with you; your profile simply needs adjusting. Based on your writing, you sound like a gentle soul who knows himself to be eclectic. Tell the reader about that man!

You come acrosss as 'a regular guy,' which is just fine!
The one good photo is the third, where you're smiling. The other two need replacement because in your current main pic you *appear* somewhat depressed or 'zoned out,' and the other one is way too blurry.
As was suggested, also consider a full body shot and smile, and so too, 'loose the cap.'

RE: What do you think?
Hi LuckedOut, overall your profile looks good.And, your photo is lovely.. you show happiness
with your great smile.
Only thing I definitely would not do is put your full name out there.. a big 'no-no,' for safety reasons.
Good luck to you!
