I can be a very creative person when it comes to writing but in this case I'm trying to be totally honest, and I think that's my problem. Not a player by any means but am serious about finding someone to spend my life with. What can I do to get better responses?

Welcome and good luck nothing is wrong..lol

I feel your profile is a tad negative lighten it up and show some humour...it will help...good luck...

Ditch the animal in the photo would be a good start.

Just post a close up photo of yourself smiling.

You stealing that Goat from a farm or something?

I live on a farm. That's 1 of the goats that we've had to hand feed since her mama rejected her. I was taking her in for her bottle. LOL I'll make a few adjustments and see what you think after I'm done. It'll be done tomorrow though.

Awwwwww......Cute goat. Keep it....

Hi, I would remove the part about the bad luck & not dating in 10 yrs. It leaves to much room for a woman to ask "10 years? Uh oh, something's gotta be wrong?"

and you might want to expand the age range. you're 50, do you really think or even want to meet someone 18? also, if you're 50, the oldest a woman can be is 48? REALLY? Listen, do what you like but if I were you, I'd work on the age range, maybe that will help. good luck.

aww, goats are wonderful, everyone should have one... my favorite barn animal

Thanks for that I guess. I try to be as honest as possible but maybe to much honesty isn't a good thing. As far as the age range, I'm more interested in friends than anything else so I'm willing to keep it the age range low to just below my age. I did have 1 70 something lady that wanted "to get to know me" but that just didn't appeal to me. It actually weirded me out. I've actually had a couple of ladies in the early 20's send me notes trying to hook up. Took me by surprise and I guess that they've got daddy issues. One I befriended some time ago was mid 20's and she had been a stripper for a while. Didn't see her at work, but worked on her car a few times. Need to call and check on her but I'm still hoping that I can find a lady that wants kids with me.

What about the goat. How did you cook it and did it taste nice

Maybe add a better picture of you alone!!!

You never heard of barbacoa? It's a common mexican dish and not uncommon here in Texas. Pretty tasty if it's done right.

I do have 1 pic of myself on here but I thought the one holding the baby was cuter so I used that as my profile pic. Guess I need to take a few more pics.

maybe have a better picture of yourself

I really don't take a good pic. Even the pics of me in the Army look like crap. Guess I need to find someone that can try to take a better pic of my ugly mug.

Your main photo sucks...your messy and have an animal in your hands...
clean up...shave ...get a hair cut...loose the dam filthy hat...put on some nice clothes...pose like a model and put a good smile on your face...take a close up of head and shoulders..........then take full pics in good poses...with smiles...do not do it in the barn yard...do it in the town square or church or restaurant...get rid of the bad photos with your head cropped off and only show pics of you having fun with friends not working ....please do not do nude or shirt off pics...
When you meet some one in person ....make sure you are well dressed and clean and freshly shaved....Women do not want a mess ...they want a man....After you meet and get to know each other a bit then you can truth them all you want....but they may not stay if you are a piggy...
there you have it Sweetness ...welcome to the real world....luck

I agree with you

Did you really eat the goat? Oh no
