This is a serious request. A look at me thread.
In the past I’ve joked asking for someone to write my profile for me, but their spelling was aweful, so I couldn’t copy and paste.
So, please, is my profile actually missing something or do I have something that puts anyone off from passing this handsome gentleman by?
I’m not throwing any dummies out of prams here, but more concerned that although I might chat to a few, ‘friend zone’ isn’t why I am on a sex swinging site right now. Do I give the wrong impression?
So. Be brutal. I can take it hard 
*also if anyone else wants to have there’s judged. Post away.  |

"You need to rap more in your profile text. No one else does this."
Cum to my crib, door open - don’t knock
Spitting out lyrics, as you spit on my c*ck
This type of thing? |

In my opinion what profiles say matters a lot less than what you do
Whether its funny serious purposefully off putting people attract people
I find the less you worry about getting laid the more people want to screw your brains out

Sort of but you can't you do the nice rap without the cussing? Like Will Smith? He's a nice man. |

"It's too long for me, got bored halfway through and hit back. "
Someone else said it was too long aswell
And then someone said it needed more detail.
I just tried to fit enough in and get to the point with text.
But you are not the first to say some profiles are long winded.

I'm a nosey cow and I like to read verifications.
I also like to have some idea of what a guy's into from the interest section. Often just to check if he's into anal or not. But I can see you explain why that's not filled in in the text.
I already like you and consider you a nice man so there's nothing off putting for me. If I didn't know you I might walk away purely because of the no interests. It feels like it might be hard work finding out what sort of meet we might have and the idea of chatting to you only to find out later we're not looking for the same thing is off putting. |

I think your profile reads fine and dandy Woody, a good selection of pics also. You come across really well in the forum and I don't think you need to change anything really. I've seen some abysmal profiles with lots of veris so just keep being you, when your face fits, it fits, all we can do is present ourselves honestly. I think you have. |

I don’t think it’s too long but it does get boring sorry ! There’s clearly a story to tell and it isn’t a bad one , you’re just not doing it well. Amd why don’t you accommodate, you say you want a FWB/FB but would never invite her over, how would that work ? |

The problem I have is those interest tick boxes are missing everything I am about (they are very limited) I do want a threesome, it’s a fantasy, but not necessarily with anyone, so I do try to put it in the profile text the best I can, and hope somebody will bother reading it. Like you did. thank you. |

I think the write up is quite good, the things missing for me is the verifications, I like to read them to get a feel for the person/people and also the interests not being listed as I always check safe sex is on there and won’t even consider meeting someone if it’s not.
But these are just things I look for maybe not other people. |

Can't accommodate and already got something going on at night.

Yes, maybe I do just get to the point in an awkward way instead of telling that story. Point taken.
I dunno how it would work, I don’t have a fwb/fb to work that out with.
And should we all explain ‘why’ we don’t accommodate? I don’t ask why people do. |

I agree that is how it looks. Not saying that is the case but my first impression when reading your profile is that you are not single. |

Although it's possibly double standards women/couples seem to always seem to expect guys to explain why they can't accomodate.

Nobody here owes anything to anyone, so there is no need to explain (just as I don’t on my profile) I was just saying that’s how it reads to me thats all. |

I liked it. It was to the point and had a logical flow which was nice, the only thing I would say is at the end of your first paragraph you’ve put a comma instead of a full stop. But overall I felt that I got the sense that I knew what you are looking for and I learned a bit about you, which is the point of a profile I think. |

I have something going on at night?
I didn’t write that. I say ‘ a hotel for the night is a good idea for us’. Ie we would have a nice room that is neither yours or mine, we share a bill etc.
So I read it a lot where a single guy who can’t/won’t accommodate in his home is assumed to be married. I can’t change that way of thinking and I’m not going to waste my time in this thread trying to do that.

Do you get that same impression with all the women and couples who can't accommodate either? I'm curious what the difference is?
Personally I would never meet any woman who was prepared to accommodate me on a first meet. |

Have you read your own profile? The words are in the 3rd paragraph.
You asked for opinions....
I don't think you should change it. It will put off some people but not others.
I assumed it meant you have kids or a busy social life and don't want strangers at your home. |

No worries at all! I think it depends on the reasons why you’re on here, I just tried to make mine as funny as possible, I have no flirting ability so o just go for all our humour |

I think it's a great profile (and brilliant pics), but like others have said, I'd be hesitant at meeting someone who can't accommodate without an explanation, when they're clearly looking for FWB.
I get what you're saying about interests being 'fluid' but I look at those to see there's at least some common ground before I start to engage with someone new. So without something there it feels almost as though you don't know who you want to attract.
But overall, I think it's a well articulated, humorous profile that clearly shows your personality. |

It’s definitely better than most, tasteful pics and decent text.
I think that it would be a good idea for you to reread and tweak/edit it a touch but it expresses you well, says what you want and is a good stepping off point.
You achieved what most struggle with; marrying your personality through the text with what you’re looking for, that’s tricky |

Obviously not I re-read it and found it.
I think I was just trying to say in the evening ‘come and jump me/meet me is unrealistic. By the time getting dressed and fuelling my car to drive 40+miles. I or you, may not feel as horny as we once did.
I might re-word it. Thanks for helping with this. |

I know you’ve said you aren’t going to explain about why you can’t accommodate but some people will automatically assume you are are married and since you also say you can’t just do ‘let’s meet now’ meets, it’s kinda strengthens the red flag, in peoples minds.
Any red flags in profiles stay red flags…some might want to check further but some won’t.
Not worth losing the percentages when clarifying why, would be easier, unless that in itself creates further red flags…
Keeping things clear makes it easier for everyone…
A red flag will always stick in someone’s mind rather than ‘oh he looks and sounds good’

I repeat what I said above. I’m not wasting my time trying to change the way people view a ‘single man’s’ profile when they can’t or won’t accommodate.
I put that down to their experience and they’re suspicious minds.m, or what they read between the lines. I can’t change that.
Thanks for taking to time to read and trying to help. I do appreciate it from everyone. |

Not enough Ozark for me
It’s a good profile especially the pictures. Text can be a bit generic but something tells me you sound genuine. Not sure why, maybe because you’ve obviously put in some effort with your photos.
Overall I think it’s fine, not read the thread to give you an honest opinion and not be influenced by any other comments. |

Ah right. So I see the appeal of putting - I do accommodate. It makes sense what your saying. I’ll think about changing something somewhere. |
