"Just interested to what puts couples off our profile and us as a couple inparticular?
Any feedback welcome good or bad.
Just interested so we know kind of where we are with things etc."
Not sure this is a can of worms you necessarily want to open.
Most people’s initial response to a profile will be on physical attraction and that’s where we would be out. You can have an amazing profile but without physical attraction it becomes infinitely more difficult. |

Nothing wrong from our point of view with the profile text, or the photos, at least nothing that would stop us from replying or reaching out. So I'd say that if you don't get attention from couples of your age range and catchment area, them it must be mostly attraction, which is a fickle thing for MF-MF. |

Pretty much this. Nothing on the profile that would be a red flag to us (bar the useless follow the herd waning at the end), so it's down to everyone being attracted I suppose. |

For me it's the fact you're not looking for single men.  |

"One word messages, guys that don’t read the profile. Guys that message saying “free now for a fuck” then expecting us to go yeah here’s the address "
Read the original post and see if you can spot the irony in what you just typed 🙄 |

"This sounds really pedantic, but we are a little put off with bad spelling and grammar.
We feel the same, suggests lack of attention to detail to us. "
The random capitalisation of the letter a is a no for me |

for us there is nothing really wrong with your profile. the pics show some personallity and also shows both of you which can be rare. we are out of your age range but you seem like nice people from your actual written profile too. try going to clubs, we have always found it easier to meet people and see if we click with no awkwardness in a club. plus there are a lot more friends to be met there too lol. give it time. im sure you guys will do well |

"The word 'yas'; will the correct word 'you' not do the job?"
Not really. Pretending to be someone that you're not on your profile is pretty dumb because you'll end up wasting everyone's time.
Just be yourself, warts and all. |

We use grammar as a filter. Before anyone jumps down my throat, I understand some people have conditions whereby it's not their fault. I more mean things like "you's" (my particular pet hate) or where they have simply unloaded their brain and it reads like Vikki Pollard. We are not going to get on, so for us it's a viable filter. |

So why feel the need to mention it? If everyone starts running their profile through a grammar checker, then your filter won't work any more. |
