Needing some help!
Posted : 19 Jul, 2010 07:25 AM

Hi Ladies,



First off, Thanks for taking time out to read this. I know you get a million of these a day but I really need help. This is my 2nd profile, I've been a member since 06? I think, but anyways I'm having difficult times getting anyone to respond and it's been that way since i first got here.



I've had the pleasure of meeting some very nice people here though those meetings have been few and far between. Two of which i became good friends with until one just completely stopped talking. I've tried different approaches to my profile, both short and long conservative and bubbly. I've had 5+ pics to now just 1 because it seems a waste if all people will do is click and delete.



So i guess what i'm asking is if you can take a look at my profile and tell me what is wrong , what needs improvement , and ratings on the pic i'd really appreciate it. I'm thinking of totally wiping the profile for good this time if I can't get this ball rolling. And yes i totally know it takes time and patience, i've tried for since '06 and i'm not rushing it but i am aware that repetition is a sign. When i see someone on here i'm interested in i write a nice message, no winks etc. and it still seems to fail but anyways Ladies, Help?

What's up? You are so young! Since 2006? You've been looking for a relationship since you were 18? I don't know if you will consider this help, but I say live your life enjoying your singleness! Travel, have fun! You're still a student and are not yet positioned to take care of a family. We are all (or should be) living within God's timing so the trick is to learn what we need to at your current level and be content letting God make us whole. Enjoy this part of your journey. In due season...

I know what you are going through, bro. I have sent out numerous messages, found out they've been read, but ignored. Even after trying some advice I heard, I'm still getting ignored. The sad part is, I'm only looking for new friends! I think we just need to be patient and hope that some other members can give us pointers on how we can improve our profiles (btw, I'm still waiting for suggestions, ladies, just thought I'd throw that out there).

Kaynine - your profile is good. Only can suggest adding a few more pictures showing you doing things you like maybe.



You have restricted the ages of people who can contact you by email. Maybe you might think of expanding that a little if you want to hear from more people.

Fa1th - good profile also. Maybe you could try adding one or two more pictures, and smile in at least one of them. It makes you look more approachable. We are all waiting for the one, so you are in good company. Continue on with your education. It is so worth while and will pay off in your future.

Fa1th: I also suggest you add some photos (that you didn't take yourself). Get a head shot in of you smiling, get some outside, see if you can get some doing something you enjoy (watching basketball?) Your profile text was good. Hang in there, brother. Keep praying and seeking God's will.

1st and foremost thank each and every one of you that replied. It means a lot to receive kind words and i appreciate it to the fullest.



1babygirl--thank you for the advice and i will most def. consider it. I started young simply because i knew i was looking for something and what I wanted it to be. I think most of the problem on here is simply me seeing someone read something and them not replying leading me to think its something on my end. Instead of me accepting that God feels its not that time yet i get agitated. Your advice really gave me hope and made me feel better about the situation and i really appreciate your words.



kaynine22--I'm sorry you're going through the same thing as well. I think that's the point that gets me, the fact that it's been read and ignored and me not knowing why instead of trusting in God's word that if i ask with a pure heart and trust in his word it shall be done. I guess we both have to ask and let go :) Hope some of these pointers help you as well and hope things get better.



southwestgal--I will def. try the picture advice, only problem is i don't really like taking pics lol I got teased as a child about "Chester Cheetoh smiling" and that put a bad taste in my mouth about pics lol but i will try it. thank you for taking time out and responding, it's much appreciated.



godslamb-- thank you for the word's of encouragement, it helps to keep me going :D Thanks also for taking time out to read my profile and post some pointers. I'll try the headshot (if i can force myself to take one) and give it a go.



God bless everyone who posted and took time to read.

Just an idea to get some candids of yourself... and have a fun time with friends in the process!...:buddies:

Invite at least two friends. (More is better!) Put the camera in the middle of the table. Or better yet, use cell phones. Have fun taking pics of friends while they are not expecting it (like when they have been told the bill is on them! LOL), share the pic, and while they are viewing the pics, take another pic!

Have fun with it!

Kristian
