I'm a straight cis male and that tends to come with a lot of preconceived notions when it comes to ENM and just dating apps generally. Currently my Feeld profile is pretty short, this is what I've got:
"Looking for easy going, curious, and fun people. Always down to grab a coffee or a drink rather than lots of texting.
Open to many types of connections but ultimately looking for something lasting. Positive energy, communication, and respect are key."
I also have ENM in my desires.
I'm in a major city so Feeld is very active here. I don't get a lot of matches on the app, but I know things are heavily skewed and guys generally always have a hard time unless you're really exceptional looking.
Like my profile states I really am open to various types of connections. I am looking eventually for a primary partner, someone "to do life with", but want to stay ENM. I don't know exactly what that'd look like once I find that primary partner but am open to figuring it out with the right person.
I currently have a FWBs who I see regularly, we may be a bit more than FWBs but we know we will not be each other's primaries.
Anyways, I have been learning a lot about ENM, I've read The Ethical Slut and Polysecure. I think I know how to navigate these sorts of relationships but obviously everyone and every situation is different too.
I guess I'm wondering what the best way to try and rise above those preconceived notions and make myself seem like someone who respects people and their feelings, and is not just here to sleep around (or at least do so respectfully).
I don't really want to put a wall of text in my profile but unsure how to communicate this otherwise.
