Nothingelse-

Just read your revised profile, we both got a very different feeling than last time. Much warmer and quite welcoming, and your standards are still clear to the reader. Very nice.

Here's to more responses with profile 2.0 :)

Well here is our critique. So take it with a grain of salt. lol
We like what you say and don't really find anything stand offish about your profile.
We think that the picture on the bed with the red dress is really good and so is the one with the negative with the hands tied. The others seem a little more like a quick snap shot. Have fun with the camera and have fun with the pictures. But other than that seems like a solid profile. :) 10 points if you can get your man to pose a little more seductive and sexy, using a prop or cowboy hat maybe.lol

Indeed, welcome to the forums!

To be honest there was nothing in your profile that I would think would cause problems for you. tablefor3 probably offered the only advice that's what we'd give: your profile is like your resume... unless you are being flooded with offers and want to start filtering who you hear from in advance, then strip out anything that sounds like criteria and make your profile all about what you have to offer and why people would have a blast meeting you. Frankly, we didn't think you sounded negative at all and don't necessarily think you should change a thing, but if you change anything then that would be it.

"Both of us are laid-back and open-minded"

You start your profile with 10 excluding limitations prospective partners are filtered against. That sounds neither laid-back nor open-minded. Nothing wrong with having your standards, but try to present them in a softer, more inviting fashion.

Good luck.

ps, welcome to the forums :)
