Dating : GUYS COME ON
As a female on countless dating apps, seeing profile after profile of: « I’m a nice guy who likes to have fun, wanna know more just ask » I’m BURNT. OUT. You guys are putting the fuckin bare minimum in there and wondering why people don’t message you or swipe right.
WHERE’S THE EFFORT????
Female version of this » I like travelling and wine. »
Well there are plenty of girls out there with “fluent in sarcasm, loves traveling and adventures”
Both have a lot of generic profiles.
Or when they say they’re an “open book” but that’s ALL they say
It’s great
Dating apps are dumb. Girls are just as bad too. But we have more bots to sort through.
Great, all the men here will collectively solve terrible men’s online dating profiles as soon as the women here eliminate any mention of tacos, sarcasm, « I’ll probably like your dog more than you », or « just ask » from women’s online profiles.
There are always a lot of these posts but the sad truth is the people who aren’t putting in effort most likely aren’t going to be active in this sub
Its not just guys. I see so many profiles with either no bios or just one line. It drives me crazy.
Well I put a fair bit of effort into my profile. Carefully selecting words and having people look over it for me.
Still get no matches. Why bother putting effort in when the odds your profile will be see in super low! Even if it is seen, the odds the girl will actually read the bio rather than instantly swipe left is even lower.
Save yourself the agony boys. Be a mystery, girls love a mystery.
I put in the effort for my profile and STILL got no matches.
‘Netflix, wine and travelling’ isn’t so detailed either
I let my dog be my personality. He’s way cooler than me.
Also gets me hundreds of right swipes.
If I see one more person posting. Foodie. Travel. Fitness. Antifuckboy. With an emoji in between. I might get a hernia. The problem is reciprocal. Change your dating app to female matches and observe.
Or actually putting stuff in your Bio just for them to say « So tell me about yourself… »
or « What do you like to do? »
You sir, have just earned an « unmatch » because you clearly **do not read.**
We could ask 99% of girls the same thing. Adventure, the office, margs, and the beach are not character traits. Attractive people don’t need to put in effort to date, it’s how it is.
Nobody puts effort in anymore. Hell I put general stuff in my bio just because it’s not gonna make a difference either way.

Playing hard to get eh?
Humans generally don’t put effort into things which aren’t rewarding.
Possibly just speaking for myself here, but after putting in a ton of effort and trying to be detailed enough to garner some attention, when that doesn’t work, what’s the point? I’ve had more responses dating online with less information than I have with more.
Having a unique profile makes little difference. I’ve been told by two of the three conversations I’ve managed to have on tinder that they really liked my profile, I am still however in single digits for matches.
I worked really hard on my profile, followed literally all the advice imaginable on the internet and honestly it makes no difference.
while i do enjoy these posts, i find that its pointless as youre preaching to the choir. that point is made evident by the responses from the men providing their female versions. If this really bothers you, you can always right swipe or message the offender and tell them to fill out their profile, but they will probably ignore you. theres not much that can be done sadly. left swipe and move on or stop swiping and only talk to those who matched you first.
As a man who is on countless dating apps, when you constantly get matches and messages from fake scamming profiles you really don’t want to put any effort. I ultimately had to put in my profiles that if you are real and confident, make the first move and message me. Do you know what messages I get? « Hey there ». Where’s the effort? It is a cruel dating world. We are all just trying to swim in it.
Try it in the south! The guys will have only pictures of themselves holding up dead deer or fish.
Gross.
As a woman on a dating app, shouldn’t you be celebrating every guy who makes themselves easy for you to discard?
The men who write this still receive some messages sadly. They’re probably handsome.
Well, makes it easy to filter people out.
Lol I just skip those kinds of guys on dating apps. They make me think they’re suspicious.
This is universal. The vast majority of profiles are crap, man and woman. I believe you when you say that most dude’s profiles are garbage, but if we’re being totally honest so are the women’s. I think the reality is that online dating sucks but it seems like more and more of a requirement these days
That does indeed sound like a generic profile for a ~~guy~~ human being. What would you like to see instead?
