Dating : **this is going be a long post**
hey, so i’m 28M, and i’ve been on bumble since it started and on tinder for a year but i’ve never had a match. i don’t live in a very densely populated area, but i must admit that i’m quite a recluse. i do not have any friends, i live far away from most family, and i have established independence for myself. my family has told me that i have a bit of a narcissistic nature, and that’s probably why people don’t like being around me. can you please give me some general advice and review some of my bio information?
‘Hi, I love videogames, right now i’m playing the elder scrolls online. I have played other titles but that’s what I’m on right now. I’m also going to school to be an electronics technician. I work the 2nd shift at dollar tree warehouse. It’s a fun job. As far as family goes, most of my family lives in the sherman area, which is where i was born. I live next door to my father. I f you want to talk just say hi 🙂 If you don’t have any profile info or just point me to your insta i will swipe left. ‘
That was the tinder version. The bumble version is much of the same, just a little more condensed.
The first sentence would have had me swiping left. If I happened to make it past that, the rest of the profile is a disaster. Do you realize how many times you used the word “I”? You will also get dinged for working in a warehouse. Why do you think anyone cares where you live in relation to your father? And the last part needs to go; it sounds defensive.
People want people who sound outgoing and interesting. You sound like a vampire who never sees the light of day. Sorry if this sounds harsh, but you asked.
Basically everything you mention is a negative. You need better marketing.

It’s fine to mention video games if that’s a big part of your life (though it’s typically a deterrent), but list other hobbies as well so it doesn’t sound like that’s all you do. And « video games » is probably as much as you want to mention about it.
> I’m also going to school to be an electronics technician
Nothing wrong with this, but it might sound better to just say you’re studying electrical engineering or something.
> I work the 2nd shift at dollar tree warehouse.
Seems like an overshare. This just isn’t a great advertisement. If you want to express that you work nights, just say that.
> As far as family goes, most of my family lives in the sherman area, which is where i was born.
Not something a perspective match is interested in knowing.
> I live next door to my father.
Big overshare. This is a red flag for dependency. Just don’t say that.
> I f you want to talk just say hi
No, that’s what *you* do!
> If you don’t have any profile info or just point me to your insta i will swipe left.
No one is concerned about who you swipe left on.
I like the technician part and don’t mind that you work at the warehouse. At least you said it’s fun. And where your fam is from is ok. You might get a games geek who likes elder scrolls but that’s pretty rare. It’s better to keep the profile general to appeal to a larger base and then maybe bring that up once they’ve gotten to know you. Along with that your dad lives next door.
Get rid of the swipe left stuff it sounds negative. I know you probs didn’t mean to be but that’s how these things can come off. If someone doesn’t have a bio just quietly swipe left.
If you don’t have friends maybe show some more of your personality ? Like a joke? If you make a joke about living next door to your dad that would come off better. Good luck!
Edit: spelling
Idk about bumble, but with tinder, no bio is the best bio in my experience. Or something short and witty if you’re witty.
This is an awful bio. Sorry dude
I swipe left on anyone who says “I will swipe left for…” don’t tell us, just do it, or say what you like
