Currently your platform only allows 250 character for a persons “About Me”. 250 Characters is not enough to describe oneself to others. By expanding it maybe to 500, you allow enough space for a person to fully describe who they are and prevent someone from misjudging or identifying a person and allow users to learn more about each other. Sure, your platform is used by many people looking for a hookup. But it’s not exclusive to just hooking up. People also use it for finding friends, dating and networking as are some of your “what are you looking for” options. I tried to describe myself and barely got a good description of who I am. Now I have to explain to people who I am and what I’m looking for in messages. Which is a waste of time for all when they could find out from a profile and know whether or not to message that person. However, I also know, not everyone uses it “About Me” section and not everyone reads it. But there are many of us who do and an extension would greatly impact the quality of the app.
