Did we overdo it with the profile

Quick question for the Fab hive mind...

Is our profile too long or too detailed?

We seem to get plenty of views, but not much engagement, so we're wondering if people are opening it, seeing a wall of text, and making a swift tactical retreat or maybe we just don't seem very approachable. 😂

We thought being open and detailed would help people get a feel for us, but perhaps we've accidentally written the director's cut.

No offence will be taken—we asked for feedback, so feel free to be brutally kind. 😄

Erm it is rather long. The thing that would stop me replying the most though? It's AI. Not you.

I've seen longer.

If you feel it portrays you in the light you wish to be portrayed, then leave it.

Some wont like it, some wont mind.

Cant please everyone x

You need to get the Sydney warning up. A mate of mine didn't have it and when he got home from work one day his house had gone.

Do you rent?

That is way too long.

I agree with Meli. AI language is a bit bleugh - quite hard to get past it.

Maybe they just like using "-".

Didn't read too long.

Thanks for the feedback we will look at changing it to something much shorter , that's already a fair few people saying it's too long , which we did have a feeling was the case.

I couldn’t read it all to be honest. Try and prioritise what is most important to you then the rest could be discussed in messages. Only a thought but if it’s all important then I’m out of ideas.

Good luck 🤞

It’s certainly detailed.

But fair play; Your profile - your rules 😃👍🏻

(I just gawk at pics mainly ‘cos I’m as lazy as all fu- well, suffice to say, I’m really lazy) 😁

It's rather long and doesn't really hold people's interest.

I would consider making it about a third of what it is.

Its great that you know exactly what you're looking for, but it is rather long.

Its quite nice to give the main parts and discuss further when chatting to potential matches.

There's a few chunks of that that even if they aren't AI are so generic and everyman that they're pointless.

Can I ask why it's single guys and single females? As opposed to males and females or guys and girls. I'm always put out by terms which other us as if we're a different species.

Most people aren't for most people. If not everyone who sees your profile contacts you that's fine. Most people won't be your people anyway 💜

You're stating everything on your profile which you're looking for so from that perspective it's clearly outlined.

Some people will read, some won't.

Long profile, medium profile, short profile.

I don't think it matters too much really.

If you drop on it will probably be when you least expect it anyway.

To be honest we didn't even think about the single guys/single females but it's a fair point and we will make that change.

Stupid auto text, try again

Don't see anything specifically wrong. You seem to lay out your stall well. The bio is maybe on the longer side but not too long and it's all relevant. I've definitely seem longer ones. The pictures seem nice. Show good range and most importantly there's a few of the husband. I don't really see anything wrong per se. Without seeing your messages all I can say is keep getting yourselves out there and give it time.

Yes, we started to change it within the first few feedbacks we received 😂, we had a feeling it was too long.

Although it's still not as short as some , we don't feel we can go much shorter without losing some of the things we want to say.

Caramel I read it all. Very detailed and specific and well written. People, if they are interested in getting to know you, should take the time to read your profile. I wish people would read mine sometimes. A lot shorter than yours, but it's annoying being asked certain things when my details are on my profile.

Happy Fabbing, and great pics by the way! Debs x

I think it's great, it took me all of two minutes to read it - if a two minute investment of time is too long for someone then they're probably not going to be right for you anyway. K.
