Hi, Paul, and welcome!

This website has a bit of a learning curve, so here is some information that might be helpful for dating here.

New members are encouraged to earn website points, and help other members get to know them better, by writing an informational profile that includes their hobbies and interests, and answering all the profile questions, since that's the first place many women look when they see a new member.
You have already done much of this.

The website algorithm uses profiles to find member matches, so the more details one includes, the better the match.

Also many women prefer to quickly look at a list of hobbies and interests to see if there's a match with a potential dating partner.

In case you didn't know yet, to find members near you, click on the "Meet" button at the top of the page, then on "Members," and enter your preferred search parameters.
Or click on the "About" button at the top of the page to find links to FAQ or the website tutorial.
Click on the 'Meet" button also to find member matches
