Empowered Online Dating — More Swipe Right Profile Tips
*An excerpt from my book, Empowered Online Dating
These profile descriptions are amalgamations of men’s profiles, but they serve as excellent templates for how to write your own profile. I’ve listed them here in no particular order. Not all of them follow the format I recommend, but they all hit on the important aspects and most take advantage of humor, which is the most important thing for me.
Cafe owner, barista competitor. Fat and hairy. Atheist introvert with ADHD and a side of depression. Socialist anti-capitalist. Non-monogamous/partnered (my two partners are priority). Seeking casual, low maintenance partners only. Loves: food/culinary, music, comedy, cats, social & queer issues, weird/dark humor. I don’t use drugs, but fine if you do. Extra points for curvy/thick girls. I like weirdos & outcasts. Unlikely to hike with you. Astrology is bullshit. Be willing to be gluttonous with me.
FIRST PLACE!
This fellow was a match and has become a friend. No love connection, but a lovely friendship. I’m using his profile description with his permission.
Why is this first place? Because he packs a ton of information about himself and what he wants into a few sentences and cages it with humor. What he says may not resonate with you, but how he says it is…
