Advice on our profile please

Do people think our profile is too long winded and complicated? We are just trying to be honest but maybe it's too much.

Thanks in advance for your input xx

You've obviously put a lot of time and effort into your bio, stating exactly what you want, enjoy etc.

My opinion is that anyone worth chatting to and especially playing with would go through the time to read it as I would expect them to do the same with mine

Pictures are good, the text is detailed but we wouldn't message based on how much is dedicated to Mrs being new and slowly finding her feet. We would rather find that out once we are hooked and already chatting privately. That's just us though but overall its a great profile.

Thank you, we appreciate that and think the same as you. If people are serious then they will take the time.

Thank you. Regarding the Mrs, we all have to start somewhere and she is very keen to progress in exploring things, but we take your comments on board and appreciate them, thank you xx

Great profile! We like a detailed bio, it helps us understand where you guys are at and what exactly you’re looking for.

We always feel ours is way too long but there’s nothing we’d cut out. It’s us and people either like it or pass us by

Too long for me and rambles a bit making excuses for why it's long and detailed. I think I found the code word but I'm not sure. I'm a big believer in having the profile you want though and if you're happy and it's working leave it as it is.

If you use message filters to block single men you won't get any mail from them.

Good luck

My 2p?

The profile isn't long. Many are much longer and a profile should be as detailed as the owner feels is needed, not the reader.

But I'd lose the unicorn term. Single woman don't always like it and it can be off putting to be labelled.

One other point. Single guys in particular are generally shot down for using close up, cock shots as photos. The first pic I saw when opening uour gallery was a close up crotch shot of her. Possibly not going to attract that woman you seek and is the kind of shot more appealing to men.

There are couples out there that have males who don't get involved with anyone other than their partner so you're not seeking the impossible. But think what would appeal to your target market when posting photos.

It's a thumbs up from us, alludes to being new without over emphasising it

I guess you are asking as you aren’t getting the interactions that you desire.

So this was my thoughts as soon as I started reading your profile:-

I’d say the biggest problem on your profile is that it’s written solely from the male and so as a couples profile it reads disjointed and not like you’re in this journey together.

Asking to find the word in your profile is a going to be marmite…some will think it’s novel, others will think it’s childish and stop reading. It reminded me of trying to find the three squirrel pics hidden in my local paper when I was a child

, so doesn’t make me think sexy thoughts.

I do always read profiles if I’m interested in messaging . Although if the bio is really long winded I would just pass it by . You have to leave something to talk about

Thanks for your input we appreciate it. Actually we get plenty of interaction, this is just a genuine question in order to improve our profile.

Yes it is written by the male but it is done so in the presence of my partner and she approves everything before posting. As for the hidden word we are fed up with people messaging us who haven't read our full profile and want totally different things to us, so yes it's silly but as we have said, it will sort the wheat from the chaff.

The majority of single guys will message you the obligatory "hey" regardless of what you put on your profile.

Dont worry about it being long winded. You have got to be yourselves in this lifestyle. If everyone isnt on the same page then you should just move right along.

Have fun and take care!

If I'm honest the hidden word 1st paragraph would stop me reading further, I did so I could feed back, I think a couple of bits ramble slightly more so about the Mrs it comes across as she's unsure but that's just how I read it, you mention finding the illusive unicorn & bi lady several times too, it's slightly repetitive reading.

Some of the pics are a bit gynaecological for me but that's just my preference. I think the blurb is very honest I didn't find it too long at all.

It looks fine enough to me. You seem to be having a reasonable amount of success by your veris so it can't be too bad.

Vaguely put put by illusive unicorn, as illusive is more like illusory or deceptive or fake, where elusive would be the rare or hard to find. But I doubt most people would notice that.

Manchester(ish).

You could say all the things you have on your profile in about half the words.

And PTTF has nailed the elusive unicorn.
