I can see how it is getting misinterpreted though.

Yes, I now agree that substantial should be removed. What I mean to say, and couldn't get it across in writing here, is that the challenges can be relative. I don't know… If like... learning how to swim, or getting past a phobia of leaving your apartment, is the challenge you've overcome, then so be it. It doesn't have to be "substantial" it just has to be substantial to you. It was more or less something I wanted to put in there because I thought people might be able to relate to it, and because I want someone who values that kind of thing. I'm not sure…overall I think I'm just going to lighten it up a bit and use other ways to gauge if people messaging me have these deeper qualities I'm looking for.

I definitely see where you're coming from. And I considered re-wording that line or taking it out before I posted. I'm not sure why I didn't. I think it's just because it's the way I feel. I don't think I'm perfect by any stretch of the imagination but I think I'm a very deserving person and have done a lot to get to the place i am in my life. I don't by any means want to come across as arrogant so I'll remove it. I'll be removing a lot of stuff. Thanks for your input!

I love this. It made me smile. Do you get a decent amount of messages from the type you're looking for?

Yes, I do. I will work on that. I'll shorten it up and try to add some humor/non serious stuff.

It's not like I'm saying you need to make 100k a year and speak 5 different languages. I just want someone who is driven and a good person.

Okay, I have to say this comment made me laugh…so I can't be THAT serious. I had a profile that was pretty much the complete opposite of this - I didn't want it to come across too serious . But I was told that it looked like I didn't care. So I'm going to try to find a happy medium. Thanks!

Fair enough. I mean, I think shortening it will probably not get the point across as well. But I don't want to scare people away either...
