Hello OP,
It is quite obvious that you have already made some changes as there is currently no mention on your profile about being a dom and you now appear to have only one age. That's good, as so few people that ask for advice pay any attention to it.
We are looking for single men 18-30 within 50 miles of Exeter. Sound familiar? OK, so now we have your attention you can hopefully understand where our feedback is coming from.
Firstly, you will need to accept some facts. Some people on here will have zero interest in meeting with you simply because of your age. There is nothing you can do about it, so don't fret. Concentrate on finding the people that would like to meet a young man like you. Refine your search by ticking the "I must match their age requirements too" box. Also refine your search by age, distance etc.
Once you have those search results READ their profiles. It's such basic advice but so few follow it. Don't bother messaging those whose profile you don't meet. If it says they are looking for a clean shaven guy, a black guy or a chubby guy, that's not you so don't waste your time or theirs.
Now, providing you have sent a message that will entice them to look further they will 99% of the time look at your profile before responding. So now you have to sell yourself.
If we were browsing the site and came across your profile we would rapidly skip on by. Why? well let's start at the beginning:
'Here for a good time, not a long time'. Hopefully you'll have a good time. We are staying in Plymouth on June 7th, but this line at the very top of your profile makes us think that you won't be on the site much longer, so we wouldn't bother to contact you.
You have a profile pic, that's good. But it's not one that might attract the eye among a sea of search results. As you have face pics on your profile, why not have a face pic as your profile pic. Attraction almost always begins with the face, and a nice face pic will stand out far more in search results than a slightly blurry body pic.
'23 year old male' Yes, we know. It's already written on your profile so why repeat it. Unless you have nothing else to say, in which case conversation could be difficult and that's a trait we aren't looking for in a prospective meet.
'Hoping to find people on here to share an experience with and test my own boundaries' As a self confessed dom, we find it hard to know what boundaries you can possibly set yourself, surely you would be testing your subs boundaries? But the Dom/sub thing aside, it's a bland statement that isn't quantifiable in any form and raises more questions than it can possibly answer. For example what are those boundaries, what are those activities, what have you already tried, what will you not try, etc etc etc.
'I have a couple of secret talents that you'll have to find out more about' Yuk! If you've got a talent then tell us all about it, don't try to make it into some form of challenge to find out. Tell us about your talents, don't make us work to find out what they are, we will simply skip on to the next profile.
You can't accommodate and that's fine. Most people will assume that because of your age your probably still living at home. But there is no harm in being up front about it and explaining why. You have at least taken time to set your preferences, which is good.
However your profile is not everything. If you want to get noticed then you really need to get involved. Get involved with the forums, one post in five months shows you aren't interacting with people this way. Get involved in the chatroom too, it's a great way of getting to know people. Then get off the site and get involved meeting people socially, or try a club.
Good luck.
