Hey, I'm wondering what you all think about what I wrote and whether or not I'm datable.. What do you all look for in a potential match?
(pics notwithstanding, if a woman wants to look at someone standing next to a waterfall that's just fine, but it's not me!)

Need waterfalls in the backgrounds of your pictures.

Right, I'm on it!

It's fine..everyone is date-able..for someone.

I'd lose the big smirk pic,,it makes you look silly.
Now silly is cool if they first get the idea that THEY WANT TO SPEAK to you....?

So that pic might turn SOME away to want to feel that way,,
then after you have made some friends here,show ANY pictures of you.

The plain one with no expressions behind the wheel is good..

I'd run it as your main,,,,then,,let them want to see the rest,wink.

I came on here with the SAME type of pic's,,,I know what I went through,so I hope YOU won't have to...

And more of some happy,,or cute conversation, in your profile, would give a reader a better judgement of WHO you are or about..
This is just MY opinion,,,,,so take it for what ya want.
Have a good time here and have some fun,,Friends just HAPPEN...

I don't know how others will take it but it sounds like you just want to hang out at home which sounds boreing with no explanations of your interests.

Your photos are not flattering. The up the nose shot makes you look distorted, and the second out of context kind of goofy, the last kind of bummed out. A nice warm smile with out being over done is best. Your not a bad looking guy so it is worth the effort not to let your pictures shoot you down.

Your photos are great. The flagship photo makes you look tall, and that's a winner with women already. The second photo. That'll be a problem for gals. Show it to your future daughter when she's 8, she'll love it. But not women who want you.

I wouldn't have written the ad text you wrote but then I am not you, and vice versa. I will never criticize anyone's text, because what they write is what they are, warts, lies and insencerity and all. If they did not do that, open up honestly right at the start and show everyone what huge fakes they are, they would not get the girls that are their types, the girls that like fakes.

I would just like to say that you use one word with two different implied meanings that makes the sentence in itself incongruent. In grammar they call them "explosive sentneces", because the internal pressure of discrepancy can blow it up any minute.

That sentence is "You know yourself and others." To know oneself is always on a different plane of entomological basis from knowing others. A person is always on a different relationship with himself than with the greengrocer on the corner. You can know yourself, but it's a wholly different type of knowledge of a person than the type with which you know others. Both are called "know" but they mean different depths and levels for such a great extent that they may as well be not the same word.

In other words, don't use this sentence. Break it down to two diff sentences or just discard the entire thing.

Hi and welcome

You do need better pix.

You make a bold statement that you are "good looking". That makes you seem smug. Isn't beauty subjective to the one doing the looking? It's probably fine that you make that claim; however, if I applied that to me -- and said, "I'm gorgeous" – I would LMAO at myself! I can't even imagine making a subjective superlative about my looks in my profile. I know a whole bunch of guys will NOT think I am gorgeous.

Consider listing more about you. You don't have any interests listed per se. It seems you don't want to date but simply hang out. A lot of women will think you are not serious, and they won't want to waste their time.

Online dating is difficult in terms of projecting your personality. It can be fun but the down-side is getting past the computer and meeting in person. I would venture to guess that more than 50% of members are much better in person than their profiles describe.

I wish you well!
