Profile review, please?

Deja vu all over again, eh? ;-)

The new photos are really good. I also looked at your profile for the first time in a long time. It's also really good. I just have two suggestions. The first is to change it to playmates in your tagline. The second is to have that sentence about chatting just end at "chat," deleting the rest. Because that leaves open the possibility that your chatting will be in person and that's a more expansive approach than what is currently there.

Nice job!

Ok.... Finally made it through silly season at work, and took a vacation to get some (hopefully) better pics up. And Velma.... Much liquor was consumed and many cigars were smoked.

Full disclosure... we're not looking for singles so we normally wouldn't even glance at your profile.

But, overall, it's not bad. For some reason the phrase "messaging app " bothers me though. Makes you seem out of date and behind the times. Just my opinion of course.

Maybe it's because I'm in tech for a living. But it makes you seem older than 42.

Humm... I'm liking where the first picture is going. You can't go wrong with a Montechristo White Label and something brown in a glass.

My only problem is that the angle kind of looks like you have a gut. Do you have a cigar bar nearby where you could have a waiter take a similar picture? I like where it's going because I think the picture is very powerful and masculine.

Wear a jacket next time when you take it. A tie without a jacket makes men look like a grocery store manager.

I like the new profile photo and I really like what you've done with your profile. So, on to the last push, which is cleaning up the typos and deciding if you care about the quibbles anyone else has.

In your tagline, an ellipsis only as three periods. In Looking For, it's a third, not a 3rd, and I'd leave out the word "partner." There's no comma after "mine," and you have one too many periods and one too few spaces after "phone first."

In Description, there's a misplaced "m" after the first word and that's it, except that you're wasting real estate in Additional comments by leaving it blank. You could put almost anything there and it would be an improvement. Maybe something as simple as "I'd really like to know what you like."

And that's it, except the usual reminder to, after you've gotten your final updates (no, phone, not upgrades" approved by the moderators, go in and change your toggles to something other than Want Smokers, Want Drinkers.

Good luck!

Made a few changes...... Hopefully better ones.... Any more input?

Thank you for the responses, and the help ladies! You both have given me a lot to think about and some great ideas. Let's see if I can put them to use.

No crazy ex? I'm jealous. Mine is currently on Facebook mute because she keeps posting about chemtrails.

Okay, I know you've made some changes, but your profile is still missing some of the qualities I'm pretty sure you possess. Let's see what happens if...
Tagline - Teddy bear seeks friendship and hot sex (because the cuddles are implicit in that teddy bear image - nice recovery from stud, btw - and you don't want to signal that you're clingy, because you aren't)

Looking For: I am interested in couples looking for a third, single women and hotwives for strictly NSA relationships, with a focus on friendship first. Get to know one another...chat...I love great, free flowing conversations about any and everything. Meet for drinks, dinner, bowling, whatever, and then if there's chemistry, have fun in the bedroom later.

Description: Just cut the line about seeking a couple, because that's covered better elsewhere, and say you're open to all ethnicities instead of "ethnicity." Oh, and you really need to move that line about being open to chatting, etc., to Additional comments. Everything else is fine.

Fantasy: I am really interested in finding compatible fwbs to hang out with, would love to be the third in an MFM, and think it would be hot to find a fun hotwife. It would be great to attend events together and then attend to each other. Then the rest is really great. I'm giving you a pass on the emoji because for once it actually helps rather than hurts your chances.

I think it'll be closer to the actual you if you make those changes.

Regarding your pictures...

So, you kind of look like every divorced dad I ever fucked on OK Cupid right down to the tummy and the barren apartment. Yeah, I noticed that your entire living and bedroom are devoid of anything on the walls. And the cargo pants... oh the cargo pants. I'm wondering where your phone holster is...

The problem is that there is nothing special about you. Now I'm not saying that to be mean, but think about what you offer - what do you bring to the table. Right now, I only see a divorced dad with a gut and cargo pants who will probably flake on me because he forgot his daughter had soccer practice Wednesday night.

But I have a plan to adjust your fashion and make you interesting.

I want you to go through your closet and throw out piece of clothing that you don't wear to the work or the gym. Seriously. I don't even want homeless people wearing cargo pants. Then I want you to go to the Men's Warehouse in Edwardsville and buy the following:

2 pairs of Lucky Jeans.
2 pairs of Chinos - one khaki one grey.
4 dress shirts in your size - not off the rack, but get measured and know what your sleeve length is.
2 light sweaters.
1 blue or light grey blazer.
2 pairs of nicer sneakers.

You should be able to make a variety of outfits with that.

Then I want you to go to Upper Limits Rock Climbing Gym in St. Louis. Take a couple of climbing lessons. Have somebody take pictures.

Then I want you to go to St., Louis Flight Training at the airport and take a few flying lessons. Have someone take pictures of you at the controls.

Then I want you to go to Kitchen Conservatory in Downtown Clayton and take a few cooking classes. Have someone take pictures.

By now, you look good, you have a few pictures of you doing interesting things and you have something to talk about. Now you look like an interesting guy who is out doing shit instead of taking pictures in his divorced dad apartment.

You need to become the kind of interesting, worldly man that women want. Divorced dads who live in shitty apartments are a dime a dozen. Be the amazing man I know you can be.

Thank you for your reply, Molly. I do appreciate it. I will clarify that I am indeed 100% single.... No kids and No crazy ex's... I have modified my introduction, and removed the descretion part as well. I have read in quite a few couples profiles they are looking for that so I tried to make it be known I am not one to tell takes outside of school. As for something else missing..... I am at a loss..... Any further ideas or help you can give me would be great....

Hi. Welcome. I don't really care much about photos, but I do look. Your clothes are too big, that fan isn't doing you any favors, and selfies aren't the best advertisement unless they're taken from particular angles.

So, your tagline. I don't know what to do with the word "stud." Like, I want to laugh, but don't know if you're being serious, in which case, my instinctive response is to snark. In any case, women generally are not going to have a neutral response to that word and many of us will not feel so positive about it, so you might want to rethink your tagline.

You talk about discretion more than once. That's usually code for "I'm married and she doesn't know I have an account here." Plus, how discreet can you be, since your face is right there in your profile? So, that's another area you might want to rethink. What do you mean by discretion? Why is it important to you? Maybe talk about that instead of using a word that codes for an impression you don't want to leave if you are in fact single.

If you're interested in hot wives and couples and single women, say that. Right now I'm confused because your tagline says one thing and the body of your profile says another and then it goes back to just two interests.

The part in Looking For where you're talking about giving and receiving oral, plus positions? It belongs in either Description of Additional comments.

Description is good. Except for the part about being Very Discreet and looking for same. The part about looking for a couple actually belongs in Looking For and being open to chatting and having more photos belongs in Additional comments.

I think there's something missing in your profile, but can't put my finger on it. Maybe a sense of vitality? You seem smart, but maybe a little low key? Anyway, collect whatever opinions you get here, make whatever changes seem right to you and come back and ask for a review.

Good luck.

New to sls and would appreciate a review of my profile. Not always easy to put down in words what the mind wants to say. :)
