I keep getting told that our profile text is rude and aggressive. My counter argument is that it has only got like that because so many guys message without reading it. What do you think, am I getting paranoid |

Yeah we are picky, but we only get to meet occassionly so want it to be as good as possible. Maybe we should relax a bit, but happy at mo to keep going as we are. Time will tell |

Couples rules are couples rules. Stick to it. Thats what you both want then thats what you both want. Not rude at all just to the point. Lots of couples get lots of messages from single men, and as we have found most either think its the female online or are very disrespectful  happy fabbing you too  |

Looks alright., sets out your wants and don’t wants.
I think some people attack profile bios that exclude them especially when they think they’d be suitable, or they’ve found you wanting and feel your profile bio should be more humble.
Either way its your profile and should run it how you like |

I dont want it to sound big headed. Neither of us are gym bunnies and im certainly no adonis nor hung like a baboon. But we have our likes and wants and hopefully will find the right guys. Fortunately we have met mainly nice guys with only 1 nutcase who ruined it for a while. |

To paraphrase a certain advertising slogan, "it does what it says on the tin!", ie, you have stipulated exactly what you want from others in all demographic groups.
It is after all, your choice in who you wish to meet and what expectations are on all sides.
I'd look at your profile, understand it 100% and behave accordingly.
I do the same with mine & receive positive feedback on how I compose it. Yet, I still get people asking me stupid questions; if they read mine properly, they'd have all the answers!
You're not rude at all. |

Your profile is no different than ours or many others, so don't fret. However, you could consider removing two words, 'rant over'.
If people percieve that your ranting (because your telling them you are) then it's understandable that they might think you're rude. Let's face it no one ever goes on a polite rant.
Sorry to be a pedant by the way, just trying to be helpful.

I think it looks fine. I don't see anything rude about it at all.
I'm just wondering if those who are telling you it is are the very people you're trying to filter out.
I don't meet your requirements, but I understand that because you've made it very clear in your text, though I'm certainly not offended by it.
As with many things in life, some people will find any excuse to have a whinge |

"Not rude at all. Does it work to filter out what you don’t what though?"
Unfortunately it seems that 99% of blokes who message us havent read the profile so in that respect it doesnt work |

You're paranoid. It's a bloody good profile to be frank. I wish more were like yours.
Happy Fabbing! |

Lot of negatives but that not rude and if your profile is working for you and you are getting the meets what does it matter what others think. |

We don't think your profile is rude at all. We naively used to reply to all messages, we thought we were being polite. However, this has now moved to banging our heads of the desk as to the dozens of guys that cannot be bothered to even read the first few lines of our profile. Thus it's reasonable to include the statements you have made. We are now just deleting the messages in which we can see our profile has not be read, sometimes followed up by said people asking why we deleted it. I guess we look at this as being 'features' of fab, much like 'glitches' and 'bugs' in software  |

Couples and guys never read profiles lol.
It’s not rude. Just says what you want.
For me, it’s a bit repetitive and why are you apologising at least twice for wanting what you do!
If you get what you want and it works then don’t change what isn’t broken |

Yes and compleatly agree with that view, we are a bit the same tbh, we also dont meet much, and as i said, its your right to be as picky as you like, at least people know where they stand that way |

Seen plenty of direct or aggressive profile text since I joined this site. I wouldn’t add yours to that list by simply adding an apology for the directness is enough to state your considering that other person’s feelings. |

It's pretty negative. Almost every sentance is a 'no' to this or a 'no' to that. Wouldn't say its rude or aggressive though, just wouldn't inspire me to want to play with you. |

I think it’s ok it says exactly what you want , but maybe the language could be slightly less negative and more relaxed?
If I met all that criteria I’d wondering why meet, what do I get in return, it doesn’t really say much about you two as people or what you are offering back. But if it’s working fir you then I’d leave as is |
