Not a bad start for a newcomers profile, though the written text does ramble, and I think could have better flow with a second read through and edit. What I do believe will not help, are your photo's. You need clear photo's with impact, and as all those posted are not easy to see, especially if viewed amongst other profile photo's, I think all photo's need to be replaced. Niah
New profile, but a start. Now expand with more photos and written text, explaining what you are seeking in a lady. To move the process a little faster, send flowers to local ladies ....Niah
Very one sided.............I think most ladies would feel. Mixed messages.....I refer to Friends/hangout...but you imply more....and because of the status and place, they must be resident locals too if they are friends/hang out. So best give that serious thought and on the reference to ladies contacting you.....is there a reason why you cannot send flowers and mail to ladies? A good start to a profile, just now needs expanding on what you and a lady would share.....dinner, cinema......Niah
Two things I noticed instantly was the bad spelling, though I admit much is a cross over from text messaging and pronunciation. The second being it is a one sided profile, meaning expressing what you want and expect of a woman, which I believe ladies will give a wide berth. All relationships have give and take, and now most believe a partnership of equals. So my advice is to read through the written text and do a spell check as you edit. Next consider what you are giving to a lady, to make her interested in a long-term relationship, adding what you will give and share with her.... The photos included are all very similar, so variety, meaning different locations and different style of dress important...and smile....it makes a huge difference. Niah
Even friendships can be with mutual enjoyment, with give and take. I hope you understand that, and not expect the lady to always compromise herself. You are very young, so I am glad you are seeking a lady also young, so join TAGS, and send flowers, and hopefully soon you will find a lady you can share with.....Niah
It would be wise to expand your written text, and add a variety of photo's, but what I feel is more necessary, is the profile is riddled with mixed messages. In the section about the lady you are seeking, you state 'him,' instead of her. You suggest you are seeking lady for a relationship, yet give status as pen pal/email etc.... I think you must be sincere with yourself, before you can be sincere to a lady seeking...is it really a mutual friend or more. Mixed messages often mean ladies get confused and move on. Niah
A very active profile, that seems to have worked well for you, yet you don't seem to have found the right lady, though you do only state dating....? Add to that the active sporty profile, though I admit, you mention a lady to share those activities, I imagine it could scare some ladies away. I guess I am saying you are sending mixed messages, and maybe if you want a long-term partner, it is time to adjust the profile. If not...it is a great profile, but I think leans towards a casual dater who isn't ready to settle down.... Niah
Very good and to the point profile. I think you will find very quickly that for some the site does work. However, you may find the need to add more photos and expand the written text in the near future, but as a starter, it is better than fine. Niah
Well I'm glad you state dating and those living within a hundred miles of Dublin, which give clear guidance. So my advice, is for you to send flowers to all ladies you find attractive in your area, rather than waiting for them to contact you.
I agree your photo's need replacing ASAP. Use several as variety helps show different interests a lady can expect to share.
What I found lets the whole profile down, is your written text. It needs a spell check, punctuation and use of capitals and small fonts in appropriate places. But some words are totally un-necessary....so certainly not to good to be true.....Niah
It may be hard to explain about yourself, but the idea is we can select from a profile, who might be a match....but by playing safe, from photo's to text, gives no clues, so you should explain a little clearer...about you, and what you seek...Niah
Not a bad first attempt, but the written text is confusing, though confirms English is not your first language. Try to do at least a spell check, which should show up mistakes in grammar too, but the written text, does need some more work, as it is confusing but everything else...seems okay. Niah
My thoughts after reading, was covering all options without saying much. 18-99 is a huge age difference for a man of 26 to communicate with, and where you may believe you are all you state and more, it is up to others to observe and decide. Maybe this is the reason for the very high viewer rate, and yet only one favourite. It could also be because you are looking for ...chat/email etc....yet by sending mixed messages throughout your profile confuses, which brings me back to my initial thoughts, expressed in my first sentence. Perhaps it's time to rethink and re-submit your profile. Niah
I have to agree with Beautifulyou, but I also think you need to focus on your communication skills, as another lady said you never got back to her. 18 year olds if you travel, maybe concerned they are going to be left home raising children, and more mature, either have or don't want children, but I think the more likely reason is no one understands why you are here...maybe think it it's a false profile. So to rectify, add more photos, more text and adjust the ages of female by a few years...something like 28-48...might encourage mature females who won't compete with 18 year olds that you are sincere. But remember, you can send flowers....instead of waiting for ladies to contact you...Niah
No one wants divorce, but sometimes we have to accept what we do not want, that comes with maturity.... I think you should add more variety of photos, and expand the written text, rather than repeating..... but a good start. Niah
I realise you have tried to present an interesting profile, but instead have drawn attention to English not being your first language. I believe you need more photos, of varied situation, but it's a start, just the overall profile needs more general information in the written text, like hobbies and how you would spend a date with a lady. But a good start.
Well the profile starts out fine, even a good photo, but by time we come to the written text, interest has gone.... I must admit if you cannot write anything interesting and repeat the same words over and over again, how do you expect to attract mature ladies....to chat? A status of... married and not looking...., doesn't attract ladies either, so maybe it would be better for you to give the profile...more thought.
Not a bad profile, but it would help to read through your written text, mainly for spelling and typing mistakes. I think the occupation is a little misleading, but you can explain that later, which I am sure you will have too..... Niah
Most self respecting ladies will move on quickly. You say nothing about affection, as if any woman will do who can cook and look after you. But if you are willing to look yourself, go to TAGS, because I wouldn't wait for ladies to answer by sending you mail..... Of course you could rewrite the profile......and add more photos.
Funnily enough, I thought you looked more a Brit than from Germany, but the profile is fitting for you, states it from your point of view which is how it should be. I would look at Tags....you have fixed ideas, that do not seem flexible, so, focus on those TAGS.....as a short cut. Niah
Dating leads me to believe you need her to be already a resident of Greece, so she may be able to understand your written text in broken English. If however you want to cast a wider net, best edit, and get some help with the profile text, as it is difficult to follow and understand. The boxes however are easier to understand. You need more photo's with the aim of giving a better coverage of your lifestyle, because to most, it will be guesswork. Remember teenagers and mature ladies usually look for different things..... Niah
I found your profile entry in written text, more a ramble and rather confusing. Eloquent writing is more a way of presentation, punctuation, grammar...and by writing so much, only draws attention to English not being your first language.
In the second part I see you are seeking ladies between 18-60. You are 65 and retired, and living with your sister in her home, and not seeking marriage or serious commitment.
So although your photos are good, I'd advise you to rethink and edit the written text, which sends mixed messages. However you do have some favourites, so your communication skills seem fine....just give the whole profile a little more thought.....and less is sometimes more....
The profile could be improved with more photos, especially a variety giving more impact. Written text about you, I felt rambled and could certainly be improved by editing. Niah
The photo is a good start, but would be better if you added a few more, in a variety of indoor-outdoor situations.
Overall.....Not a bad start, but I felt the A-N was more of a ramble, and could be improved.....by written text about you, with better use of the space. If you keep the A-N...maybe give it some more thought, and A -Z, ... it seemed you struggled for appropriate things to include... ran out......and gave up.
I believe one thing will never change, and that is ladies prefer males to contact them, rather than the male express he'd like them to contact him. It's easy to send flowers to ladies in your area who you find attractive. More photos I believe would enhance your profile, and also by expanding the written text, even by just mentioning what you'd share with a lady on a date, shows you are thinking of the lady, not just yourself. Many members will not make contact off CS, until they are sure about the person. I think your profile proves you are new to CS..... relationships take time, and I believe genuine ladies will be cautious. Niah
I find the single photo not really with the impact necessary, so adding more varied photos, meaning situations... an advantage. The written text certainly need expanding, and would be enhanced if it included more information, as well as explaining what two people would have in common for it to work, or would share on a date. I have never thought seriously about the ages of probation officers, but at 19 years of age I wonder what age your training commenced and was completed. You are still very new to CS, so a good start for your profile, but now is the time to develop. Niah
My first impression was photos show a man who enjoys doing his thing, confirmed by the repeated statement, regarding you like cooking, but need help with the cleaning up afterwards.... To have over 5 thousand hits/ views to your profile is good, yet only one favourite, points to a problem. Think of what you'd like to share with a lady, rather than point out what you do in free time, which on the whole isn't 'a sharing activity,' and you might get a better response. Your written text rambles, and needs serious editing, and if you want to improve general presentation, read through looking at punctuation, use of capitals and small captions.... Niah
I feel you are sending mixed messages, and can't understand the comment about the live in will have to go.....you give dating, so if I am right, you have no reason to tell a woman what she can do in her own home? You also state younger than you, which I think is not helping your search, and educated with a car...odd things to mention, unless you live a distance apart. Time answers many questions, but I believe reading your written text through, you may see what a woman actually reads between the lines. Niah
I don't think the name change is so important, as many have profile names that really don't suit, but with a photo, that will always be the main focus. However, saying that the photo you have lets you down, far more than the profile name. Just a smile, would change it to acceptable. Ladies as they get older, want a little more than friends/hang-out, so maybe you have to consider your commitment levels. Time will sort the drug problem out, by getting to know someone really well. No one can say they are wasting their time being on here....Niah
