So I have been here a few months and struggling with obtaining a meet without a verification in what I can tell is an age old catch 22 on here.
The longer it takes the harder it is as people are suspicious of a profile here for a while and not verified thus making this even harder to obtain.
Am genuine easy going and respectful have tried multiple different approaches however as I was not so frequently on here found this hard.
Short of creating a new profile or even leaving the site altogether perhaps I could get some last chance advice and perhaps even one of you lovely fabbers would meet me for a coffee and verify me in Dublin city, with no other intension than a friendly chat with advice from someone who uses the site!
Thanks in advance

Constructive criticism?
Your 1 public photo is OK. Just OK though. It's a bit dark and out of focus, but not the worst I've seen. It wouldn't grab my attention though.
The over-use of the word professional on your profile might make you sound like a bit of a knob to some. Doesn't bother me personally, but I've seen it mentioned enough times across the forums to know it's like nails on a blackboard to some.
Lastly... The paragraph of your profile text that mentions your intelligence is riddled with spelling mistakes. Now I know good spelling or grammar does not equate intelligence, but, again, Fab folk can find little inconsistencies like that a bit contradictory.
Other than that... Its not actually a bad profile. I've seen plenty worse. It's just not outstanding, or maybe it's your conversational skills that are letting you down. Not having spoken to you, I've no idea.
I'm sure others will provide better advice and maybe even help out with a coffee veri if they're nearby and have the time  |

Spot on and a lot more tactful than I could ever be.
I came across your profile and honestly rolled my eyes several times reading it. You don't come across great even though I'm sure you're a lovely guy.
You need more pictures. Lose the whole "professional" thing because really what does that even mean?
And if you want to make a point of saying that you're intelligent correct the spelling of comprehend.
I agree with the above though, your profile isn't that bad. It's just not selling who you actually are.
Saying all that though, I'll probably be around town at some point during the week. If you've had no offers by then hit me up and I'll go for coffee and verify you. |

My advice for what it’s worth is to tell whoever you are chatting to your leaving to create a new profile. Delete that one it owes you nothing and start fresh. Use same name if makes you feel better there’s no point otherwise it’s just a reminder of how long your here. |

Thanks everyone for all of the advice, dually noted, and DublinGirl92 I would love to take you up on that offer
This post has given me a second wind here, no need for a new profile if I can finally get this one up and going then I'll be flying as I know myself I am genuine and will be a big part of the scene once in it!
Thanks again everyone and keep the advice coming

Your profile is a little short and bland a bit of more depth about yourself and what your looking for may help progress |

You seem to have a decent sense of humor so use that it will give you plenty of opportunities.
Id avoid describing yourself as genuine though it seems cribge inducing for alot of the ladies on here |

it tells you don't mind what you're told, the place is a minefield and if you get lucky you get lucky. I saw 2 women's profiles today, nothing on the in profile bio, loads of veris, if that was a man it's the opposite. Just shows you how easy alot of men are pleased. |

I remember been on here at the beginning sending polite nice opening mails, no luck. I even went to the bother of highlighting stuff in profiles, no luck. You eventually think "what's the point". Patience only takes you so far especially when you can go out and get your fun. |

that's the easy answer. Most Women have lists as long as your arm. I'd advise any youngish enough male signing up here to use the forums in spare time and go out and pull in the real world. |

By all means just use the place for the forums to distract yourself, just dont be putting off newer people because you have had a bad experiance.

Effort is actually chatting to women like they are actual people and not just sex dolls nothing hugely strenous.

sending profile enducing polite opening mails is effort. There is actually very little more you can do. It's not always the males fault. |

"What do you mean by profile enducing polite opening mails? Because I don't think enducing is a word? "
polite opening mails that engage a profile as in picking something out of the profile to include in the opening mail. I have stopped trying on this site along time ago but I remember what it was like when I was trying.
