Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

They see the avatar and respond to that. Plus, it is a well know Fab FACT that men address their messages to the woman in the couple and alienate the male half.

Think that's what you call male optomism

It says couple and you talk about both of you so it is clear to me. Unfortunately some men on here are a bit thick and give the rest of us a bad name. Mrs has a lovely arse btw.

It reads as a couple's profile, but...

There's only one picture and it's of the woman (the pictures are often the first and last stop)

And

It's pretty standard in a couple's profile to get people addressing only the woman or man individually.

Most people won't even read the profile and just look at the pictures... might be where the confusion comes from

Most of the profile sounds like it's the female writing , so they may think the female replies to messages

You could have an equal amout of male and female pics and say COUPLES PROFILE in capital letters...you will still get quite a few, not all, guys messaging you directly....it's the nature of the beast.

I'm guessing that Mrs wrote the profile .. plus that you only have two photos.. both of Mrs ... single guys are putting 2 and 2 together and aiming messages at the Mrs.

Ps great cleavage shot btw

I would say that as you state you want mmf with hubby watching most guys would aim the conversation at the female as that's who they need to impress as that's who they'll be getting jiggy with.

Also there are a few "I will" etc's this maybe further accentuates the impression the female is the one running the show & again is the one the guys need to impress.

Just how I see it anyway..

I'd say where you can change I to we whether its relevant to hubby or not. Maybe knock off the him watching and discuss that in private once guys message, so that it looks like mmf with him partaking on the public profile.

Also the negative stuff about crap messages, easy to rewrite as "We" do not appreciate..but personally "We'd" lose it altogether

Hope this helps a little

Probably 70% of messages will still be aimed at the Mrs though.

Maybe add that you are both on here & both read messages & any aimed at just one will automatically get binned.

Harsh but do you want to meet someone that can't be arsed to read a profile for two minutes??

Our first impression is you have laid it out with the Mrs details first, and no male pics, don't expect single males to read all the way through, or sometimes ready it at all...lol

I'd say to show you're a couple.

Pictures speak and a lot of women discount single men because there are pics of women on their profiles.

I think we like the visual clues that tell us what something is

Does your wife not answer messages? You could try adding to your profile that you-the husband-answers all messages. It might not help that much, but some might read it.

Also,do you explain to people, after the first me, that it's you answering?

When couples messaged me they never explained who was messaging, unless it was the man asking if I was interested in his wife.
