I was wondering if someone could critique my profile on OKCupid. My profile is below as a partial link. Just registered here so apparently I'm not allowed to post links?

okcupid.com/profile/tstrutz

I haven't had someone else look it over yet, so I think this might help me figure out if this is a good profile or not. I have been able to get some responses from women, so I must not be doing too badly with it.

A bit too much details on you and in the end just a "If you think you're the right person for me" for contacting.
You might want to do things together or share something. Rethink the relationship-idea first.

I fixed the part at the end. I've seen way more detailed profiles though.

I think that's a pretty decent profile. You might want to put more about who and what you're looking for, if you have an idea of that.

And back in the day, mine was really, really long. I viewed it as a sort of assault course that guaranteed those who did contact me knew what they were letting themselves in for.

The problem with that is now that I've just started dating, I really don't even know exactly what I'm looking for.

That's fine - it often takes experience to see what we do and don't want.

One thing that might help is being aware of any commonalities that draw you to particular profiles.

Well, I'm a Christian ( seems kinda rare among Aspies actually ) so I'm definitely looking for someone else who is as well. I'm also a bit of a nerd so that usually draws me to profiles as well. Though around here most more nerdy women seem to be either atheist or agnostic ( or other ) which would never work for me.

Also I prefer someone who at least has a decent education or is in the process of going to college. And if they're done with school, they should at least have a proper job. I also love traveling when I can so that would be a plus as well.
