God knows it must to hard to be a woman or a couple on these sorts of sites but is it really necessary to fill two thirds to three quarters of ones profile with rants about the facts of life on a site such as this .
I have a radical idea id like to put out there just maybe the answer to stopping all the dimwitts who by contacting you have frustrated the living daylights out of you to the point where your profile has become full of rants .
Why don't you take matters into your own hands and invest some time into looking at profiles and picking someone who appeals to you instead of spending your time thinking of another rant to add to your profile of rants.
I've even heard you can hide your profile while you take this approach which means you don't have to worry about being approached by those you pass over .
I know its a simple idea I've put forward and yes its a radical idea.
for which you can thank me for later if you insist.

"So you thought you would have a rant....about ranty profiles  "
Not a rant just tongue in cheek advice being offered because in my opinion rants in profiles are a pointless exercise that achieve very little in the long run . |

"Or perhaps people could take the time to read profiles before contacting ?"
In a ideal world that would happen by we live in a far from ideal world. I always feel sorry for the person who fills their profile full of rants because my first thought is my god this place must be really getting to them which can only mean their not having fun .
After all if your enjoying yourself no need to rant or find fault with what your doing or others are doing . |

My point exactly you can't stop others from doing what ever they want but you can improve your chances of finding what you want by being proactive and go looking for it.
Having a profile stating what your looking for is a start but then just expecting that alone to bring you success is a recipe for frustration if you ask me.

Yeh he prob left himself. Admin wouldn't remove him for him not putting the right age lol.. There are loads of people who do that. If anything, they would have probably corrected his age.  |

We can only speak from our viewpoint but inviting a single man to share our sex life is quite big for us and we take our time making the decision |

Which is of coarse a big decision but I think you fully understood my point about sweating about facts of site life that you yourself earlier admitted you can do very little about so why rant about them in a profile .
Hope that's cleared up any miss understanding about my last comment on your post back to me . |

That's exactly correct it can only ever be a guide and as long as the person contacting you is honest and approachable some obstacles can be overcome after all we re all here for the same |

"Over the months my profile has turned a bit ranty. It used to be happy and smiley. I've become so jaded lol x"
After checking out your profile yes you have a few demands fair ones I might add but that's a very mild set of rants there not really rants ether due to how you wrote them .the profiles this post was picking fun out of are far far more crazed than anything you wrote so are you jaded not yet in my opinion but you may be on the slippery slope that leads to it |
