    Considering what your profile says you're looking for, you're probably better off posting in a different type of forum. Horticultural maybe?

    I have epilepsy and use it to control seizures. Also I cant combine alcohol with other medications I use so it is a far safer intoxication for me. Hard to make all that sound sexy in a profile. - Posted from rhpmobile

    You've done a good job telling us your negatives that the women will move on before they finish reading it. People are looking for positive people in their life. And what is 420? A pie?

    And maybe you're eyes won't give you away as a) a bawler (I cried watching Ragnor Lothbruk die on Netflix too) or b)a stoner. Either way group dynamics aren't gonna help you if you're intent on speaking "bingo" (txt talk). You could just ask for a pot smoking, Netflix binging geek girl into naked Yahtzee. Good luck with it all 👍🏽

    Hot topics - view all- second from the top- profile clinic and tips. My tip, helpless/hopeless isn't a good look.

Save it for down the track once you've started chatting with someone, if it's information that you feel they need to know. Putting 420 references in your profile without any sort of context isn't sexy or appealing either, and will just give people mostly negative impressions - even people like myself who have no moral objections to use, including non-medical use. The 'looking for' section is supposed to be where you describe what you're looking for from this site, the type of people you'd like to meet, things you'd like to experience etc. I doubt you're actually here to find 420, so putting that there just makes you come across as a smartarse or a bit of a troll, even if that's not your intention. I also agree with others regarding the negative overall tone, it's off-putting. I get that it's difficult to write internet profiles on sites like this and people can be uncomfortable trying to 'sell' themselves, but even a bit of self-deprecating humour done in the right way can lighten the tone a bit. There are also more positive ways to describe your own preferences. Good luck.

    This is a way to express the acceptance of smoking pot or accepting somone who does so, without overtly mentioning pot or marijuana. You may find the phrase 420-friendly often in personal ads, especially on Craig's List. It refers to the term 420 which has become lingo smoking pot. - Posted from rhpmobile

    for the epilepsy. Agree you should make your profile more positive, perhaps inject some humour. For me personally, watching tv isn't the most attractive proposition, not unless porn is on, even then I'd rather be doing something a little more active 😛 The IT guy, that is attractive, love a guy who is good with technology and a tradie, perfect 👍 Just focus on the positives, you are advertising yourself after all. All else fails, turn it off and on again 😀

    Okay, thanks for that. So op, you're after someone who wants to sit on the couch watching tv and smoking pot? What an attractive proposition. Let's see hmm yeah nah 😀

    I fully understand with regards to your use of cannabis to help treat the epilepsy, that you would be concerned about finding people who are ok with that. If you do really want to mention it in your profile though then I think you need to put at least a bit of context in there about it, and also have more than just 3 numbers to describe what you're looking for on here (you were also pretty lucky your profile got approved by the mods in its current form).

    I'm thoroughly entertained and haven't even read his profile! Sounds like my kind of man! NOT. Yuck. I'm glad the drugs are mentioned because for many people that's a deal breaker. That's ONE positive thing about your profile, possibly the only thing. 😂 - Posted from rhpmobile

    You didn't just write "not into clubbing because I always go home alone at the end of the night."??? I think I've found the EXACT REASON you have no luck with online "dating". Plus you're a smoker. That's a huge turn off for me, and the majority of women. I want a man to smell delicious, not like cigarettes and pot. I'm reminded of the stoner couple on "Knocked Up" the Asian chick and her lanky boyfriend. Maybe that chick is single?!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 - Posted from rhpmobile
