Hey guys, I'm new to the forum, and to online dating so I'd appreciate some honest, useful criticism about my jDate/Matchcom profile.

About me:
Curious? You just passed the first step. I'm reliable, friendly, easy going, and fun. I can get along with anyone as long as they have a sense of humor, and conversely, if you don't have one, don't bother.
I am currently a PhD student in SFU and enjoying every minute of it. It's not school anymore, it's where I get to do what *I* find interesting. Bio-informatics is the future of the world because it will cure illnesses and will make people's lives great! and I love being part of that future.

What about you? what is your story?

Interests:
Coffee and conversation, Cooking, Hobbies and crafts, Movies/Videos, Music and concerts, Exploring new areas, Nightclubs/Dancing

Needs more joviality. Apart from that, it's OK. Just a bit dry in some places.

Ok, is this a bit more jolly?

"Curious? You just passed the first step. My name's Boris and I'm new to online dating, so if you can make this exciting, extra brownie points for you. I'm reliable, friendly, easy going, fun and all in all comfortable in my own skin (but I usually wear cloths).
I grew up in Israel, then grew up some more in Calgary, and now I'm here in Vancouver growing some more, the rain helps.

My best qualities? my good looks, sense of humor, wits, high intellect, and above all, modesty.

I enjoy dancing, i.e. latin or ballroom, and I can get along with anyone as long as they have a sense of humor. I'm currently a PhD student in SFU and enjoying every minute of it.

I'm looking for someone that has a good dark sense of humor, and is generally fun and inspiring.

So you should definitely message me if you have something interesting to say/discuss, you are a genuinely good person, or you are gorgeous. Ideally, it'd be great if you exhibited a combination of the three"

No descriptions, seems pretty straight forward. What do you like, weight lifting . is it weightlifting outside so you can work on your tan, is it in your gym with a personal trainer, so at your home with doing p90x?
What you want is your personality to come across. That's the key.
This seems more like your going into an interview. Just a perception I saw with it.
