First Welcome to Mingle will look forward to seeing you in forums. You sound smart and upbeat with a nice sense of humor.

This is really a pretty good profile. I grade really hard so that is high praise. But it could be GREAT !!! And pretty much say exactly the same thing.

Structure is a little sloppy and negative. Suggestions you ask for follow. Think if you use them you will ROCK it!!!

Delete Gents. Plural come on's are good if you want to welcome a party but Hi or singular greeting helps to gently engage the reader out of the pack. Openings are that very first impression.

Leave the last seven words off you first sentence. Either a man likes what he sees or he doesn't you don't need to talk him out of it.

I would leave the second sentence out. It rambles around a little and sounds a little like the reader gets to pay for your fantasy vacations. That is a great second date conversation.

Go to a second paragraph of likes and stop at chilling with a nice BBQ. (You don't want to come off sounding like a lush and the upbeat glass half full close is good.) Use of words like must and move on and men will in a minute. Use "love" in only one like. Try often listen to all genres of music, enjoy all animals big and small, and love my family who I hope to share wholeheartedly while making you my treasure.
Think using "exciting package" rather than unpredictable sounds much more sane but fun.

You are a strikingly pretty woman and you have some good photographs. Great lighting. But if you look how they are coming up on your profile you may want to play with photo shop and see to it the ones you do not use as a lead shot don't look mutilated in the small form. It is a small thing but if you flip your lead shot the eye travels to your text rather than away from it.

I would also say add shots with out all the jackets and big bags that add twenty pounds you really don't have on your body. Show pictures that tell mini stories about things you like for dates. I would add at least one in a nice dress just to the knee because it looks like you have some great legs. Keep with the classy no cleavage shots. Men will notice your blessings but you want them to see your pretty face and feminine hair; great cut looks youthful.

I would suggest something that is a little more descriptive than retail especially if it suggests you are a full time employee.

Again best of luck. Know there are some awesome gentlemen up your side of the border.

Hi PacificStar and I would like to thank you for your great suggestions. I have updated my profile and I hope it entices the man that I would be attracted to.
I just have a few questions that I hope you can clarify. First of all, thanks for the compliment on my pics but not sure what you mean by "flip your lead shot"...do I getting rid of that pic or switch it out for another pic? The bags and the jackets is me and yes I do have that twenty pounds under all that but I will look for others...my thoughts behind the pics I chose was to show a full view instead of just head shots. I want to be upfront and let them see who I am...a fuller figured woman. You hear so many men saying that the woman looked nothing like her picture and that she was a lot heavier than they expected. I would rather be honest right off the bat than to be rejected or hurt after a date.
Thanks again and any other suggestions or ideas after I edit are welcomed.waving

you might want to rethink your email restrictions, that many restrictions can keep people from emailing you that you might wanna talk to...

How do you know what my restrictions are moe? I don't want intimate encounters, married men or smokers and I have a radius of 100 miles with men who are 49-60. That should be a pretty good selection I would say!!!
