Please let me know what you think about my bio.

The picture will be replaced in time. I know they are not great.

What I'm looking for is platonic friendships with the possibility of one of those friendships becoming my life partner if I can get over the fear of wanting to run. I require friendship first and am attracted by intelligence.

Does any of what I write say that?

I'm just lonely and want companionship.

Thanks in advance,
Gia

A bit wordy, but it tells who you are.

I’m a bit wordy. :joy:

I don’t know what should be left out to shorten it. I also have trouble focusing, is it all over the place?

Not really, "all over the place", just lots of detail, but well written detail. Like I said, tells who you are.

Love Sylvester Stallone so much. Did you know he wrote Rocky in 3 days, after he was on a interview to get the part for another movie, the producers ask to see any of his work. He showed them a screen play he wrote before Rocky. Only problem is he sold it to another guy for $100, they liked it so much they wanted to buy it for $20,000. Rocky took them to see the other guy and they hated each other, so he wrote Rocky. He came a long way from not being able to pay his rent.

I was a guy in a previous life I’m sure. Lol And Good Fella … fuggedaboutit ( forget about it) … lol I can watch it every few months and never get bored.

It is a bit long but lets people know some info about you and how to get to know you and communicate with you adn your expectations.

You might want to see if you can make paragraphs of the areas so it doesn't look like a long run-on sentence though.




And I am really happy to hear you won't fall for me since I am not intelligent. hahaha



And I do hope you find that right person for you!

It was longer lol

I couldn’t figure out how to do paragraphs and that’s why the stars are there. Maybe with the app or on the computer (I’m using a phone). If not I’ll try to shorten it. 🤷:tone1:‍♀️

Aww you’re intelligent Two and nope no worries. :two_hearts:

As others have mentioned Gia, its a bit long. Yes, paragraphs would be much better. Maybe use just 1/3 or 1/2 of it and save the rest for those who meet your first cut and someone you continue chatting with? Just a thought. Most men won't read all of that UNTIL after a few chats then they want to dig deeper into who you are. Personally, I'd shorten it way up but you do you.

I kind of like your 2nd picture best although this one is good too.

Honestly, I don't think it matters much either way. Long bio, short bio, pic 2 or pic 1, you'll probably get the same responses. But maybe try a much shorter one that is easier to read?

Just my 2 cents.

Just a thought...
For someone who can go months without tv, you spend a fair bit of space describing movies and shows you like.

It is actually a pretty decent profile. For me, longer is better than shorter, although the lack of paragraphs does make it more difficult to read.

However, the "try before you buy" idea, i.e., meeting several to find one idea is not really there. It is a good idea though, and most here would not only agree, but they are actually doing that.

I think the way you wrote says interesting things about your character, e.g., that you are a fun woman!

Previous to his death I did. Not I’m working on focusing so I can sit through a show or movie.

I’m up to 10-15 before I have to pulse or you’ll see my eyes wonder.

I got Netflix 4 months ago and it’s been watching 4 times by me.

I do appreciate everything said here. I make changes so it’s more readable.

I understand the shopping around thing and I’m old school. Everyone I know gives me advice and said I have to date many to find “the one”.

That’s not me and what classifies as a date? I don’t even want to date, but you never know where and when you will meet the one.

I “dated” online to gain experience. I love the companionship more than anything else. I started attracting better quality men that invent their time in me and I learned how to weed out everyone else.

At the moment a cop that wants everything including my soul :joy: and a professor that just wants to use me just my asset’s. He’s attracted to the way I process grief. He’s such a geek. Lol I’ve met guys that say creepy things like I don’t know where you are in your grief, but you look dateable to meand another it’s attracted to my survivalness. Super creepy, yes, but I’ve heard it all.

I’m after a gentleman with a kinky side.

I was going to put this

What I'm looking for:
Mature gentleman - loyal - long term connection - physical, mental and spiritual dynamic - To be Taken-in-Hand - Old-school type - good chemistry - communicative and mutual respect for each other.

I’ll cut out the titles, etc and try to streamline it.

Thank you wise one. I do appreciate your 2 cents. I’ll work on it today and see if it’s an improvement. :slight_smile:

For pictures, they’re all lingerie shots so needed to crop them. If I show to much skin it attracts the wrong kind of man.

I’ll get there I’ve just chooses the long winding trail like gravel on bare feet … it will be painful and many life lessons along the way.

There I changed my profile and I took off the relationship and shortened it by half.

Again thank you for helping. :two_hearts:

Maybe I'm a bit late to it, but I like the profile. I don't think it's too wordy, like others have commented, but it could use some space between the different thoughts. Maybe break it up into paragraphs.

The photos aren't bad, either. They show you've got a nice smile. Maybe look at the lens when snapping the pic.

The emojis are a nice touch, too.

Thank you. I cut off all my interests that’s why it’s not wordy. Sticking with friendship.

The pictures were taken at someone's request and I was nervous. Sometimes I have trouble looking at the camera ( it's my attention span)… see who wants to date me.. Lol

I'm going to try the do paragraphs. I don't know if it's a mobile issue why I can't.
