Hey guys

I need some advice on my POF account - It gets plenty of views but I get very few replies to my messages.
I'll also include a direct link to my account to view photos etc.

About me:
Hello there, crazy woman with her hand in her pants... at least allow me to get the common pleasantries out the way first before you continue doing what you're doing - My name is Michael

First off, I do have a life beyond my computer/phone, so please don't send me threats like "you're going to drown my pet goldfish" if I don't reply straight away - I do my best to reply to all my messages.

I'm driven by music, like most stuff since the 80's right through to hardcore and usually reflects on my mood. I've just bought a new set of decks so I'm learning the art of DJing which normally keeps my hands busy.

I am grateful for all things and people I have in my life, especially my family, they hold a very special place in my heart. For the things I don't have, I strive and work hard for.

I'm also quite the athletic type, I make it a goal to workout a couple of times a week and vent a little of my competitive nature at Thai Kickboxing.

I'm the kind of guy that would push you beyond your limits, until you experience life living on the edge, you're merely in existence.

I'm pretty outgoing and get along with most people, but if you can't string a simple sentence together without 'tlkin lyk dis' then I rather you don't message me - Its concerning to say that my 3 year old niece seems to have better spelling and grammar than most 'adults'.

With that out the way, I've got kik messenger for the people who can pique my interest... so what are you still reading this for?

First Date:
Anything aslong as it isn't the cinema. Mix it up a little
If all else fails I do have my trusty rope and spade to liven things up a bit...

Your opener is not funny but just weird/creepy. Get rid of the woman with hands in her pants, it isn't funny.
The rest of your profile is just plain and like everyone else's. That is the main problem. You also say too much useless information, like how you care about your family and are grateful for what you have in your life. That is great but so does just about everyone. Use the limited time a woman will look at your profile to write something interesting and different. Also, don't qualify women in your profile. If someone writes you something like hey u wut u doin you can just ignore them. I also generally advocate against the typical talk about myself format for a profile. Think outside the box.

last, don't say you only want a non serious relationship. Always say you are willing to have a serious relationship even if you aren't.

Hey TheFury

Thank you for your response, sorry its taken me so long to reply.

I've taken some things out and juggled a few thing around but I'm still not 100% happy with it.

Still not good. Your opener jokes are not funny. "Hey thanks for looking at my profile" is also boring and pointless. Think outside the box, don't just list what you do and write I'm this, I'm looking for that, etc. BE DIFFERENT.
