When you use phrases in your passionate section like "at the moment" and in your interests section like "as of late" you sound a little flaky and changeable.

The one thing I am most passionate about: At the moment I really love being outside in the wilderness. Usually on a back country camping trip, fishing, biking, just going for a walk, or out riding my motorcycle.

The most important thing I am looking for in a person is: Loyalty and Honesty. If I cannot trust someone I cannot respect them, and I would never be able to build a meaningful relationship with someone I don't trust and respect. I'm looking for someone that will be my team-mate in life.
This is a little over-done...yes this is important..but the reiteration can come off as baggage, burned or trust issues.
The most influential person in my life has been:
My sister, she is one of my best friends and generally knows what's best for me??, and is able to tell me in a way I can understand.
You should know what's best for you...some women may read this as "meddlesome"... describe other attributes, besides doing your thinking for you.... that you admire
The three things which I am most thankful for:
Family
Friends
Nature
OK we all have friends and family...hopefully not attached at the hip... Use each section to highlight a different and interesting aspect to who you are and what you are about
Three of my best life-skills are:

• Using humour to make friends laugh
• Achieving personal goals
• Being a good friend and companion

The one thing I wish MORE people would notice about me:

I've been told I'm a very thoughtful person, and I think that is difficult to show to someone you've just met.
This can be somewhat of a tricky question...but use your creativity to take advantage of that... for example.... a woman reading this may think your "thoughtfulness" is some deeply hidden characteristic...is that a good thing?


The things I can't live without are:
Family
Friends
Nature
my motorcycle
animals
Again ..use each section to emphasize a different aspect of your personality, interests etc.
There's got to be more to life than nature, friends, family and motorcycles....which were already mentioned
The first thing people notice about me:
People notice I have a friendly personality and I'm always willing to help out someone in need (within reason of course).
Some additional information I want you to know:
It's important to me that anyone I meet is honest about their intentions and what they are hoping to get out of the relationship. I love playing board and card games, but I'm not up for emotional games.
Wow.... would edit the first one about this...it goes without saying that no one wants head games etc....but mentioning this a second time can really come off as damaged goods.

Would be better if it came from a non-defensive, confident stance ......such as: "I'm a straight shooter, I say what I mean andI mean what I say"....

that's more attractive to women than the "sick of mind games" thing.
My interests
I typically spend my leisure time:
For extended leisure time I enjoy camping or fishing and going on a motorcycle trip. For day to day liesure time I enjoy being outside walking, riding a bike, reading, or hanging out with friends maybe playing a game. And as of late, I've really started to enjoy cooking.
The last book I read and enjoyed:
Shibumi, is essentially about a hired killer, but really it's about so much more. I'm enjoying the cultural comparison between the East (oriental) and west (american) cultures. Also the idea of Shubumi itself is interesting, beauty is effortless, flawed and simple in it's truest form.

Hello friends!

I would greatly appreciate any feedback (positive or negative, hopefully contructive, but be honest I can take it) on my profile.

Many thanks in advance!

The one thing I am most passionate about: At the moment I really love being outside in the wilderness. Usually on a back country camping trip, fishing, biking, just going for a walk, or out riding my motorcycle.Are these solitary activities for you, or do you go with others?

The most important thing I am looking for in a person is: Loyalty and Honesty. If I cannot trust someone I cannot respect them, and I would never be able to build a meaningful relationship with someone I don't trust and respect. This a very negative way of explaining why honesty is important to you. There are a lot of positives about being with an honest person. Are any of these reasons meaningful to you? If so, mention them here. I'm looking for someone that will be my team-mate in life.

The most influential person in my life has been:

My sister, she is one of my best friends and generally knows what's best for me, and is able to tell me in a way I can understand.This also comes across somewhat negatively. "...knows what's best for you" ->Are you unable to think for yourself? "...tell me in a way I can understand" ->Are you stubborn and difficult?

Three mentions of family so far, and two of friends. Almost everyone's friends and family are important. This tells me almost nothing. Could you limit to one mention each and use the space to reveal additional tidbits of who you are, what makes you interesting, and why I as a match would want to communicate with you.
The first thing people notice about me:

People notice I have a friendly personality and I'm always willing to help out someone in need (within reason of course).


Some additional information I want you to know:

It's important to me that anyone I meet is honest about their intentions and what they are hoping to get out of the relationship. You seem to have been burned. As a match, and an honest match, I might pass rather than having to deal with someone who is distrustful and constantly looking to see if I am lying/cheating/whatever it was that someone in your past did to you. Each person is different. Start with a fresh slate rather than hauling baggage into a new relationship. I love playing board and card games, but I'm not up for emotional games.WOW!!! (I would close you at this point! Bitterness, cynicism, and a jaded attitude are total turn-offs for me!)

Again, this is not a positive picture.
