Newbie couple help please!

I think of the profile text is OK and you list some hobbies which is good.

The pictures… They need work.

I want to emphasize this-if my husband came to me with your profile I would veto you. The pictures that you’ve taken show a very messy house.

Men tend to do the hunting-they’re not looking at the house they’re looking at boobs and butts. The men tend to do the hunting, Because it’s such a pain in the ass to do it ourselves. But Women have veto power.

If my husband came to me with your profile and I would say something like “I don’t like his beard” or something to that effect. At this point I’m lying to him but men are stupid in general. Men don’t seem to understand why I wouldn’t want to have sex with a couple who had a dirty house so I have to come up with something that he can’t argue with. Can’t argue with the beard If I say I don’t like beards.

In real life I don’t give a shit about his beard-I’m sure he’s very handsome man.

You need to take some new pictures. You really only need five - male face and body female face and body and a picture of you together as a couple dressed nicely like you’re going to church or a wedding.

After those pictures maybe add a few of you doing interesting things. If you like the water-maybe a few pictures of you boating. Go to a Mariners game, wear a top that’s a size too small and take pictures.

One last thing. Put some face pics in your profile section. If I see you don’t have any private pictures, I’m not going to play the texting game to see what you look like.

Hi, I might come back to this later, but very quickly...

Your photos are really bad. His looks like a mug shot and yours are worse. Please get photos where you look happy and no body parts.

It's discreet and the NO DRAMA thing, particularly when your cert is a little ambiguous about whether you are or are not still in a sexless LTR, screams DRAMA. So maybe consider losing that.

Otherwise, it's not the worst profile, just a little cliched and uninteresting. But that's easy to fix.

Good luck.

Welcome to the fora.

The profile isn’t bad but I wouldn’t refer to him as an FWB. Simply calling him the male half would sound like you are a couple and give more of a sense that there will be no drama.

As for the pics, there is nothing flattering about cluttered selfies. Certainly your guy could take a few pics of you in some lingerie or a club dress with a nice backdrop.

Then be patient and try to get out to a club or some meet and greets.

Good luck and have fun!

We recently joined but are having issues with our profile & pics. I basically wrote down what we’re looking for & our personal info, but unfortunately we’re not receiving any requests lately. I did change the profile pics & wondering if it could have caused the recent dry spell?
I’d really appreciate any help given as we are newbies & want to get this party started! Lol!
Thanks!
