I'm not sure that this profile reflects your personality. In it you've mentioned AP History, Victorian England, cats, taking things slow, and your similarity to your spinster great-aunt. You're also one of the few people in the world with enough confidence in her grammatical skills to use the semicolon. That's impressive, but intimidating to a lot of people. It's not a warm and funny profile and you're probably a warm and funny person. In your eH Advice profile you sound more approachable. Your favorite movies include Blazing Saddles, Blues Brothers, Young Frankenstein and Raiders of the Lost Ark. You refer to them as modern classics and wink. You watch Dr. Who and love live music of all kinds. I wouldn't have gotten that side of you from the dating profile. Even your occupation sounds better on the advice profile. Maybe you can blend the two. You also do need to make your spare time activity list less sedentary. Gardening and home renovation are probably good exercise, but it's tough to make them sound like it if you start the list with tv watching.

The Jeopardy appearance is really great.

We love a girl who knows her punctuation!

AGREE that your EHA profile is much warmer!
