Profile modifications that is
Any advice as to wether I need to change anything? I'm constantly fiddling with it and it's beginning to frustrate me.
Any new picture advice would also be appreciated |

While you are not our type, it is a good profile, though you do need to make some corrections to your punctuation.
I would also consider deleting the trackie photo. They are not to everyone's taste. |

I'm afraid there's an awful lot of waffle in there OP.
I only read through it all in order to be able to come back with some constructive advice.
I suspect most visitors will probably not even get to the end of the first paragraph.
It may sound a little brutal, but nobody is really going to be that interested in what you do for a living, yet you've dedicated 5 lines of text to it.
With all of that text that you've put in your profile, none of it makes any mention of what you can offer a potential meet.
Why should they meet you?
What can you give them that the thousands of other single guys on here can't?
Try and avoid the cliche line 'drop me a line if you want to know more' or words to that effect though. Nobody's going to. Why should they go out of their way to ask you for information that others display freely on their profile.
If i'm being really picky, I would also suggest you go back through your profile and look at your grammar and punctuation.
For example, your opening sentence should not have a comma after the word 'I' and there should be a full stop after the word 'chef' and not a comma - and the same applies to both instances of the word 'food'
It may seem unimportant to you, but I would imagine that you would take more care over a CV. The point is, though, that your profile is your advert. Your one opportunity to sell yourself. First impressions matter. |

It's interesting but, again, check where your commas and full stops go.
I know it's what people under 30 do these days, which is to pull wry faces in photos but I don't think it's sexually attractive. Who knows? I'm just a Middle Aged Git. What I would say though is that selfies loook better taken from above than below - the angle will be more flattering.
I added an extra 'o' |
