After a short informal investigation, we came up with a list of the top 3 things to avoid for an online dating profile.
1. Signs of despair
Don’t be too strong. We are used to the idea of love at first sight. But in real life, this type of activity manifests itself as more insightful than romantic. We are looking for a guy who is easygoing and confident. We like to think that if we don’t picture him after the first meeting, he won’t cry for weeks and text us endlessly asking what went wrong.
2. Photos all/too alone
If your photos make you look like you’re a very lonely individual, that’s usually a bad sign. The idea that the best photos are taken in your bathroom mirror suggests two things, one that you don’t have any friends and two, you never do anything interesting to be photo-worthy.
3. Negativity
If you are negative in your profile, you are probably negative in real life. At a meeting, we want to have a good time, not to be a shoulder to cry on. Continue to optimize.
