Hi r/datingoverthirty,

I’m back again. Last time I posted my profile here I received very helpful feedback, a lot of which I’ve tried to incorporate.

Previously I had just come out of a 6 year relationship and maybe wasn’t ready to move on. 6 months and a brief but meaningful situationship later I’m back to the well of online dating.

I had success with my profile in my last foray. I’ve gone through a lot of growth in the past few months and now I’m at a point in my life where I really feel ready to find a long term partner/potential spouse.

I’d say I’m adventurous, open minded and incredibly silly. I like the outdoors, sports and cooking.

Please could you review my profile and let me know whether you have any feedback. Also not sure if I should switch some photos in?

Feel free to tear me to shreds – I can take it.

Also want the opportunity to thank everyone in this community for the invaluable advice you’ve given me over the past few months.

Cheers!

  1. Seems like a pretty solid profile as is. Can’t imagine you’ll be single for very long unless intentionally!

  2. I honestly don’t see anything wrong personally. It’s a good profile!

  3. Hey!
    I don’t see anything on your profile that needs to be improved. I’m on Hinge too!🤣

  4. What is the red thing on your plate on photo number 3 please? Is it some kind of cake?

  5. Maybe switch the tennis match photo to #5?

    I like the library card bit.

  6. Haha, the “rough-faced shags” picture is great! I’d definitely include that one.

    I also like your potato-based dish prompt…so many choices!

  7. It looks good 😊 I would swipe. FYI potatoes are nice way to my heart and I am a Ravenclaw. God I should move back to the uk 🇬🇧.

  8. I think you have a great profile. I like the photos you’ve chosen best even though the alternatives are good too.

    Being nit-picky, I think the photo of you with your dog is the best and I’d put it first. It just shows a nice genuine smile and what you look like versus a selfie which is always somewhat at an odd angle.

    I would match with you but it was really when I got to the third photo I went “wow he’s cute!”

  9. not feeling the first prompt. If you’re going to use it, move it to the bottom. To me it says “I’m not taking this seriously in the slightest” more than it says “I have a sense of humor.”

    the first photo and the rest of the photos seem… different? Like I wouldn’t have identified you as the same person. I think you should move that photo down. I think it’s a combo of the facial hair being different + the higher angle + hat giving your face a slightly different shape than what it appears to be in most photos

    photos seem fine

  10. Hi!

    I would change the tennis (U.S. open??) photo with any of the photos in your other album…I’m partial to photo #1 with the champagne but I think they’re all great 🙂

    For prompts, “together we could” is good. The other 2 you picked *could* be the perfect opportunity to show what kind of partner you’re looking for. As they stand now, they’re cute, but not really giving much more.

  11. The pic at tennis court 🤟🤟 (US Open?). I wouldn’t add the IG collage since the rest of the pics in the profile look good.

  12. I would remove the reference to Kanye on your Instagram page. I would personally swipe left because of it since I have run across so many “I find saying offensive things funny” men on online dating platforms.

    And, sweet potato tots 🙂
