Body language. Look in their eyes. No longer contacting you. etc... If you aren't delusional about the situation, you'll know. shades

It's called codependency. It's sad when you see a friend being treated like sh!t, you approach them about it, and they say, "But he/she loves me."

I knew a guy who always dated women who completely controlled him. It drove me crazy but he's his own person and that is what he was looking for. He ended up marrying one like that and he seems to be happy. It takes all kinds I guess. shades

oh by the way to add one more thing, Hes in the process of trying to get rid of her, do you mind ur own business and let the guy that makes ur heart flutter every time u see him, or step in risking a cat fight?


Let it go. If and when he breaks it off with her, then he is fair game. shades

But I would like to stress one thing you mentioned. He flirts with you each and every time he sees you. Are you sure you want to pursue and date someone that flirts with other women to the point of having them come "check out his band" because his girlfriend won't be there?

This dude ain't looking for friendship if he is revealing everything about his current relationship which includes dumping her. Let the "player" go.

Pretty good profile. If you are sticking with the non smoking locals, you can set that up in your email settings so that only people that meet your criteria can email you.

Finally someone who didn't say, "And my children are my life!!!" shades

1st grade. Her name was Gwen. She was 4 inches taller than me with long blond hair. -Sigh.-

I remember my Dad taking us to see Flash Gordon at the movie theater followed by roller skating at the local rink.

When they called "Couples Only" and she grab my hand and pulled me next to her, oh man, I will never forget how that felt.

I moved away a year later. Returned in 3 1/2 years and heard she had moved away.

I hope she is doing well. She will always have a special place in my heart.

I have been single for almost 2 years now, not a date, or a nice kiss or anything. For I long time I was wondering what is wrong with me. Wear are all the nice single girls. I meen you would think that they would be around if every one of your friends girlfriends are nice and friendly. Thin it hit me I need to start living life for me, not werying about geting a date. So I started running, and trying to work on my body, and going to school. I want to become succesfull in my landscape business, then I can start on dating. I just hope it won't be to late.


It's your spelling, dude. :angel:

There is nothing wrong with you or any of us who have been single for years. You made the right choice by focusing on what makes YOU happy. Believe me, when you start projecting an aura of confidence and contentment, people begin to notice.

Big problem with most is that we focus on the future bringing happiness rather than the present. I.E. "I'm not happy now because I don't have ________. Fill in the blank.

Life is too short to do sh!t that makes you unhappy. People working 40 years at a job they can't stand because they are looking forward to their retirement. Stuff like that. All you have is the present. Grab it by the b@lls and don't let go. shades

we're human, so yes


I agree with RareEntity but it doesn't necessarily have to be love from an partner. Family and friends are a biggie for me. There are times when I will pick up the phone and call a buddy or family member because I crave that connection with those that I care about.

I've met people who constantly search for it but end up settling because they have such a need for companionship. They settle for a warm body and then wonder why they can't find love.

I agree with allowing your options to be open. The universe throws some pretty interesting people into our lives from time to time.

It almost looks like a different person in the third pic. The pic you chose for your profile is great.

Maybe go into some more detail about your musical tastes, movies, outdoor activities, etc. I like to read what people write when talking about their passions in life. I would say what a "CPS" is or does.

Also, go into more detail about the type of guy you are looking for other than someone who can also take care of themselves.

My two cents.

wow you're kinda harsh telling me what pictures to remove. this is a dating site about ME, not my dogs or my car.

and i am not removing the deal about the cigs... sorry yall but that's a HUGE thing in my book and im not settling for less.

but i did make a few changes according to what yall have said, and i thank you for those suggestions so far!


My intention wasn't to come across as being harsh. I looked at the photos and pointed out the ones that either didn't show you in a flattering way (you and a half gallon soda jug) or looked like a duplicate of another photo.

True, this profile is about you but are "you" just about you and your friends or are there other things? Nature photos, you doing an activity in action, etc. People like to see that kind of stuff.

As far as the cig thing. On your mail settings you can choose "No smokers" as a condition on which to email you. And someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but if they have that they are a smoker then they can't even email you. I won't date a smoker. Period. You seem to be the same way so don't compromise on it.

Good luck and you shouldn't have any problems getting responses with that kind of profile.

Use photo #7 as your profile pic (black and white with you looking to the side).

I agree with Water. Add a brief paragraph about what you are looking for in a man and you are good to go.

Outstanding! Put up a photo of your dog and have a profile photo of you smiling. The one you put up is ok but a smile would be so much better. Also include a line of space between each paragraph. It makes it easier to read.

Now THAT'S the type of profile a man likes to read. Perfect!

Use pic #4 as your profile pic. If you have a way to crop the photo and bring you up closer, do it.

Remove the words "really" and "just" from "I really like to just hang out.." and the word "just" from "I'm just a casual guy..."

Include a short paragraph about what you are looking for in a woman.

And dude, that photo of you wearing the produce boxes ROCKS!!!

I would add a short paragraph about what type of woman you are looking for. Other than that, your profile is great. Very straight forward and to the point.

Remove pics #3, #4, #5, #7 and #10. If you have pets, nature shots, car, etc. add those.

Remove the following paragraph:

"Cigarettes are a huge no though... unless you're trying to quit or willing to give it up for me. But more on the relationship side of me, I'll never cheat or lie. I've been hurt too many times to do that. My biggest problem with males is that they dont commit as much as I do in a relationship. I like to get calls everyday, and texts if that's not possible. And when we are out together, let's hold hands and give random kisses. I like to be in the relationships that people are jealous of."

Change "coming see me as often as possible." to "coming to see me as often as possible." Someone might misinterpret the meaning. :tongue:

Add the sentence"I like to be in the relationships that people are jealous of." after the word "commitment!"

You should be good to go!

Get rid of photos #1, #4, #11 and #13. Use #12 as your profile pic. If you can, put up a photo of you smiling.

Go into more detail about yourself and your life. Express yourself by talking about what your passions in life are.

Include a section of what you are looking for in a man.

You are very photogenic. If you have a friend who can take more photos of you, go for it.

Hope that helps.

Put up a different photo. Have it show your face head on and show off your eyes. Eyes and a smile is what I look at when viewing photos.

Remove the whole "not into head games, get married tomorrow, move on baby" stuff. Focus on what you want, not what you do NOT want. Too many people put that stuff on their profiles thinking it sounds cool or tough or whatever but it comes off as being rude and a big turn off.

Remove the whole divorcee thing as well. Talk about yourself and what you enjoy doing in life. You've got a ton of things listed in the interest area, so expand upon that. What kind of movies? What type of music? Etc.

Then list what type of person you are looking for. Do you want someone who is adventurous? intelligent? witty? What qualities to you look for in a man?

The whole point is to let the real you shine through. You aren't going for quantity but quality. Who cares if 10,000 respond to your profile if they have nothing in common with you? You narrow down your search with specifics and details.

Hope that helps.
