Decided to re-open my Bumble account, now that I'm living in this city I haven't lived in for 15 years. It's definitely a different batch of men than I swiped through in LA, the few weeks I actually used the app. But, FYI, here are some things I've notice about profiles.
I do actually read the descriptions. They make all the difference to me. If you just post 1-2 photos with no description? Or if your description is only an attempt to be witty? You've lost me. It's great to be funny but I'm also looking for someone who can be genuine. #swipeleft
I don't understand men who post photos of themselves with other women. #swipeleft
The second I see anything about how you like hunting, drinking, or hanging out at the range. If all of your photos are you hanging out next to trucks and 4 wheelers and holding up animals you killed. #swipeleft #BackInTheSouth
My favorite recurring description? Men telling women they have to be fun and interesting and smart to be able to swipe on them. #swipeleft
It's amazing how many 30-35 year olds on here look like they're 40-45. And anyone under 30 looks like they're 16.
One of the weirdest parts about swiping through is seeing people I grew up with, went to school with. So far no one I was close to. Or had a crush on as a teenager which would be funny. Doesn't necessarily define whether I swipe left or right. Just weird.
Wow. The last line of this guy's profile reads "This sounds stupid and so do you." Way to reel 'em in, son.
Oh, by the way, women looooooove being told to "Smile". Especially when it's followed by "It makes things easier." #swipeleft
Y'all. Your dating profile is no place for nothing but an inspirational quote you copied from someone else. #swipeleft
