Sometimes they are better than the ones that have had way too fucking much thought, or bile,put into them. I take the tone rather than the actual content more into account.

It depends... if I receive a proper introductory message from someone but they have a very sparse bio that's not a problem 'cos they put the effort in with their message.

But if the message is a one word or one line thing and then there's nothing about them in their bio I'm less likely to reply. And if the bio is empty AND there are no public pics then it's just delete and move on.

For the people I write to they don’t even get to view my bio unless they’re profile views turned off and I’m not noticing.

But it’s like everything, any little thing can be a turn off to a particular person.

If it’s blank or a one liner yeah.

If I’m looking to meet someone I’m not interested in playing message ping pong to get the bare basics that should be on a profile. What they’re looking for for example. It’s exhausting spending time feeling like I’m interrogating someone and it’s a waste of both our times when inevitably you’re not compatible.

Given two profiles of equal physical attraction, I’ll choose the one who’s made some effort in their bio every time.

Really all depends on the other factors.

People can impress with their pics, profile and message.

The more effort they’ve put in for all 3 the more intrigued we’d be. If we start having to play message ping pong just to get to a stage where we have the info that should have been in their profile, then it becomes a little monotonous.

We are here for good connections - not pulling teeth 😬

It's not a deal breaker for me if there are grammatical anomalies, as long as I can glean as much about the person then it's fine. Poorly written ones, then perhaps yes, it can serve as a deal breaker if there is next to nothing in content or if can sense laziness in the construct.

I do enjoy reading verbose profiles with substance, humour and originality.

It's not a deal breaker but I won't engage with someone with a poorly written bio first because there is no way of judging if we would be compatible. If they message me it depends on what they do with that initial message. If there is still nothing to go on I won't respond. If they've put that little thought into either their profile or the first message guaranteed they haven't read my bio and are happy to shag whatever they can get hold of.

A blank profile is a turn off for me. It doesn't take much to add a little info.

For those who have issue with writing, I don't generally care about typos, though do like some basic punctuation (not a long singular sentence)

If their profile doesn't spark my interest, that's pretty much it.

What was I supposed to be into before the profile put me off?

But what was I on to be put off if the profile is gash?

I'll often chat to people I see around without ever bothering to look at their profile.

If I'm looking at their profile it's to see if I'm interested. I'm not put off if it's rubbish, I just continue to not be particularly interested 💜

Honesty above all is the only way to see if you are coympatible or not. Talk a bit about you and what you are looking for. Try to show aspects of your personality (caring, optimistic, spontaneous, outgoing, anbitious or not) and some of your main interests (music, food, walks, gym ..) which might indicate to someone whether you are compatible or not, both socially and in the bedroom. Give some clues as to the sort of person you are looking for too, don't just talk about yourself. A little humour is good but too much sarcasm can tip it the other way. Avoid too many dont's hahas, lols and emojis. And again, be honest as you will soon be found out if not. Keep it simple and short. Good luck

For us a profile is the sum of the parts. So yes a bio that is not for us is a deal breaker but so the same is for pictures we don't find appealing or contain none of the male in couples photos. Same can also be said about the posting of an off putting status.

We mainly only me new people in clubs, organised socials and just out and about. We don't really like to use profiles to chose. In our experience we've met people we've been attracted to and got on/had fun with who's profiles would have not been for us if we'd seen it first. Likewise there have been profiles we've really liked the look of but have them bumped into them in clubs and said they're not for us. So don't really give profiles much weight, we just like to take people as we find them in the real world.

I do like to see a carefully written, literate bio as it tells me I might have at least something in common, but having said that, my five year relationship with a lovely couple was started seeing their one-liner with no photos or veris. So sometimes it's worth stepping outside the box.
