Hi everyone,

My name is Christopher, I was curious to know if I could get a profile review and some feedback about my profile. Just wondering if I am doing anything wrong because of the lack of matches. Thank you in advanced!

The one thing Christopher is most passionate about: Family, Music, Cars, Dining Out, Gadgets, Friendship, Going Out For Drinks, Traveling, Japanese Culture!!!


The most important thing Christopher is looking for in a person is: I am looking for a women who is family oriented, who understands that family will always come first to me. That is not saying that you aren't on top priority, my family is very close and I think it's always important to be close with family because you never know what will happen in life. Cherish the moments you spend with your love ones.



Basic Information

Occupation: Student / Boost Compressor Assistant Age: 23 Height: 5' 7" Wants Kids: Yes
Ethnicity: Asian/Pacific Islander Religion: Christian Drinks: About once a week Smokes: Never

In my own words

The most influential person in Christopher's life has been:

My grandparents from both sides, coming over from Taiwan and the Philippines. Starting with nothing and ended up being very successful. I try to follow their experience and go to school to have a better life for myself.


The three things which Christopher is most thankful for:

  • My family and being very fortunate to be brought up in good morals and values.
  • My friends, without them I wouldn't be the person I am today.
  • Health!

Three of Christopher's best life-skills are:

  • Making new friends
  • Being a good friend and companion
  • Achieving personal goals


The one thing Christopher wishes MORE people would notice about him is:

That I am hard working, when people first meet me. Some comment on either what I wear or what kind of car I drive. Those things are just material objects, doesn't change how I am or the way I act. I work hard for what I have, my parents didn't buy me a car. I saved and bought what I wanted. Just don't judge me before you actually get to know me.


The things Christopher can't live without are:

  • Family
  • Friends
  • Phone
  • Car
  • Computer


The first thing people notice about Christopher is:

People noticed my personality and always putting people before myself. I am very blessed and I have an easier life then some others. I believe in donating to causes that I know will make a difference.


Some additional information Christopher wanted you to know is:

I am not looking for some one night stand, I am looking for a smart, outgoing, motivated and family orientated women to name a few who isn't down to play some immature mind games. If you looking for a nice guy who is goal oriented, nice, knows how to teach a women right, then look no further.


My interests

Christopher typically spends his leisure time:

Usually when I am not studying, I am either listening to music on iTunes. Studying Japanese, watching The Office or hanging out with friends.

The last book Christopher read and enjoyed:

Currently reading a book called Shinto the Kami Way. I have always found Japanese culture to be very exciting and interesting. Although I was brought up a somewhat Catholic background. I never go to church nor have I ever read any books on Catholicism. I think Shinto and Buddhism are two really interesting religions that I would like to learn more of.


According to my friends:

Christopher's friends describe him as:

  • Outgoing
  • Hard Working
  • Loyal
  • Passionate

Am I understanding right? Your not getting matches and thats why your concerned? Are you looking for another Japanese women in your matching?
If so, that could be why your not getting a lot of matches.

Nope, actually I have a wide selection. I am not looking for just one specific type of nationality. Should I remove anything that has to do with Japan?

So you are getting a good amount of matches then? Just not ones wanting to communicate?
Do not remove your love of the Japanese culture. But it is mentioned a lot. It would intimidate me, thinking I would have to learn so much in order to have a common knowledge of it. It is a wonderfull one though so dont take it out completely.
Ok, going to go throught it again.

It does not sound like English is your first language given the typos, awkward wording and grammatical errors. A lot of people will close you out for that.

There are other posters who will help get you to word these things better. I go by impressions from profiles, so you 'll get my impressions and hopefully others will help you reword some of the stuff that isnt coming across well. Or like you intend it too.
First though. Your age. You are very young and I am starting to think your age group isnt on these sights as much as the older crowd. Mainly because they have a wider social network so you may naturally get less matches. Be patient.

In the one thing people notice. You kind of ramble on and go onto a different subject there. ditch the car statement.
Also on what book you read. If I remember right you jumped to a different subject and didnt tell what the book you first stated was about.
And a typo you have is to "teach" a women right.

Cant have that!

What is your distance setting at?
Sounds like it could be your area.
Do you have your matching set at only Christian? Or do you have several of those open?
Go through your settings and make sure you dont have them set at a high non flexible setting. Check your age settings too. Make sure your matching is still on. And there is a place to click to get the system to search for new matches. Try that also.

Wow I can't believe I made that mistake, I feel stupid as heck. As for my age, I have yet met a girl in college who A) who doesn't play stupid mind games B) who doesn't try to take advantage of me when we go out. For example, going out on a date, and she's asking me to buy her clothes and stuff already on either the 1st or 2nd date. That's why I thought using a online dating service would be best.

Distance 60 miles
My religion settings is open
I really don't think my settings aren't flexible to be honest.

But thank you livenlearn for taking the time to help me out, much appreciated.
