My immediate reaction was "good grief" . You sound immature to simply state you want a girlfriend to go out and _____. You are a fine looking man with multiple good photos. So I would wonder what is wrong with your personality that you don't already have a girlfriend. A profile that has some humor, gives a clue to your personality, describes the kind of person you are and who you're looking for will get more responses.
And if you are sending messages, please, please, please don't send those generic "Hi, how are you" or even "I like your profile" openers. Read a woman's profile and reference something about her.
Good luck to you.

I think many users do not read profile and it took me a while to figure that out. Generic messages that don't reference anything you have written in profile generally mean the man is sending the same message to multiple women hoping for a response. Don't waste your time responding. Delete and move on.

I think your profile provides a good image of who you are and who you're looking for. The last section reads aggressive rather than assertive IMO. While this also is a window to who you are, it reads like you were angry when you wrote it. I think you don't need the sentence about not interested in women. If you feel you need to, you could use the word heterosexual somewhere in your description. But your "female looking for male" filter should take care of that.

Stating that you have never met a match could be worded less aggressively, and is in conflict with separated status. When I'm reading a man's profile with separated status, I always ask for explanation whether he separated from marital or non marital relationship, because it makes a difference to me. JMO. You may wish to address this.

Your photo is kind of dark. Maybe you could find one that has better lighting.
Overall, good job 8/10.

It depends. In getting to know you stage, it needs to be something conducive to conversation. Coffee, walk in a park. Something without distraction but can be cut short if not working out. After 1 or 2 of those, can continue conversation over a quiet meal. When ready, knock my socks off by choosing something maybe that I've never done, but you know I will enjoy, from having learned about me. Next I can do the same for you.

Older single men profiles (possibly women too) appear geared toward finding a new life partner. It seems I scared another one away when I included in message chat what is already in my profile. I'm not interested in long term or marriage.
I'm <1 yr widowed. I like my freedom and independence. But I do want to date.

I guess the older some people get, the less able they are to focus on living their life now, and are more concerned with not dying alone.

Any Missouri 50-60s out there not sitting around waiting to die?

Wait!
When did pen pal become an option?



OK my bad. Some other site offers Pen Pal. Which I assume means online messaging, nothing in person.
This site offers Friendship and Intimate Encounter.

I don't know what these "boys" are finding in your profile that they don't believe. You describe yourself as a single mom, never married, don't have a boyfriend. And you're looking. Not earth shattering.
And BTW these are men, not boys. You are an adult woman.

Applies to both (all?) genders... Because they don't value their commitment to current relationship as much as they value whatever they think they will get from cheating.
My husband and I had an agreement. Lack of fidelity was a deal breaker. If you can't honor that, you need to leave. Neither of us cheated in 41+ years. And yes, I'm sure.
I was once very, very tempted. I will always be thankful that the man was smarter than me. He recognized that it was a bad idea and prevented both of us from ruining our marriages.

When I read a profile where the man has checked every box from Marriage, Serious Relationship, Casual Relationship, Pen Pal... I think he doesn't know what the heck he wants.
What do you mean when you do this?

I guess you're clear enough what you're looking for. Not sure if you will find it here. I would not message you, and would delete any message from you.

No.
1) You are too young for me
2) I pass by profiles where first pic is shirtless
3) Escort/porn creator as part time job would make me think your primary interest is sex. That's not my primary interest in dating.
4) You state outright that you want a partner to create content. Not my thing.

Profiles with "I will tell you later" are lazy. I pass them by.

Yeah, a profile writeup. Who are you. Who are you looking for.

No, of course. because you're too young for me and on another continent. Ignoring that, there is nothing in your profile that makes you sound like someone who would interest me. And mentioning god in your profile is my signal to click off.

I also don't know what since lover means. If you're looking for a long term relationship, did you check the woman's profile to see if that's what she wants? And if you use the words sincere lover in your message or profile, that may be off putting. I read that as clingy.

I like your profile. 7/10 or 8/10. It gives a clear idea of who you are. You might add whether you're open to someone with a modest religious belief. And your first profile pic is out of focus. Can you get a better shot, and smile?

A profile with "I will tell you later" is useless. I personally dislike shirtless profile pics. Put some clothes on.
2 because you have multiple pics and the shirtless one isn't first.

It's become quite treacherous for straight males these days . We may try and say something meaning it in the most harmless way intended and STILL find a way to screw it up an sound like a complete perv

To not screw it up try commenting on something in the woman's profile that interests you. If you want to compliment her physical appearance, do it later so it doesn't seem like a pickup line.

Alex. Yes those messages are good for the ego. It took me a while to realize that almost all initial messages that comment on physical appearance are from time wasters who have not seen my written profile and send canned greetings to anyone whose photo they like. I don't know the motivation. After one round of messaging it's not going to go anywhere.

Maybe it's just me. When I see a profile listing all outdoor physical activities, that will appeal to a specific kind of woman and limits the pool of potentials. You may be searching for the equivalent of a guy pal

Since your questions focus on money, I'm assuming you don't have any. Most women don't want to support their partner. For myself, I expect the man to be self supporting and come into the relationship as an equal.
