6 Ways To Perfect The Art Of The Bumble Bio

Ah, crafting your Bumble bio. Do you go funny? Smart? Cute? Do I write one at all?

We all know there is nothing more uninteresting than looking to see a guy with either no bio or “Uh I don’t know what to put here so just ask me!” No thanks Jeff, I’ll find someone who knows how to write a bio. Your bio doesn't have to be some long drawn out detailed paragraph about who you are and what you’re on Bumble for— but give us something to work with! Let me show you how it’s done ladies.

1. Get What You Want

We are all on Bumble for different reasons. Are you looking for Mr. Perfect? A new girl squad? Just wanting to find an attractive male to fool around with? Free drinks? Instagram followers? Pointless conversation? The list goes on and on. You can find just about whatever you want on Bumble, but you have to be straightforward with what you’re looking for.

Example: “Why aren't you buying me beatboxes at The Study right now?”

2. The Deal-Breakers

Everyone has those “no way in hell this is going to workout” triggers. Are you 5’9 and refuse to date someone shorter than you? Do you absolutely hate guys who wear cargos? You can’t stand people who love Donald Trump? Whatever it is— don’t be afraid of putting it out there. Use some humor to just let the other person know “tread lightly this is a touchy subject.”

Example: “If you wear cargos and ‘Make America Great Again’ t-shirts, let’s not waste each other’s time.”

3. Automatic Attraction

Who doesn't have a type? Maybe not an “all my ex boy’s looked like brothers” type, but we all know there are qualities that automatically grab our attention. Tall, dark and handsome? That mysterious hipster from the coffee shop? The guy from the gym that you’re pretty sure could lift a car off of you? Go ahead, put it on there! There is no shame in going after exactly what you want.

Example: “Searching for a guy who lifts weights to look good naked… after eating a whole box of pizza.”

4. Give Me the 411

Nobody is looking for an autobiography, but it wouldn't hurt to know a little bit about who you are beforehand. It can be anything from a bible verse, your favorite football team, a quote that you live your life by, and so on. Attractive pictures are great, but the bio is really where you can learn about someone. Once I read a bio where he said “Eats ribs by the pool,” and that’s all I needed to know. We were soulmates.

Example: “I’m looking for someone to re-watch every episode of “The Office” together. As Michael Scott would describe me: Big Butt. Bigger Heart.”

5. Showcase Your AUX Abilities

There’s nothing worse than handing your new Bumble Bae the AUX and regretting it. Talk about awkward! This all would have been addressed earlier if the Spotify feature was given as much credit as it deserves. Do you hate country music? Do you listen to Beyoncé on repeat all day? Or are you stuck in a 90s music playlist? Let your matches see what you’re listening to, and consider their musical choices. Something like agreeing on music might seem so small and insignificant, but I promise you’ll appreciate it.

Example: “Do you know all the words to “Closing Time” and willing to sing it on the way home from the bar? If not, are you willing to learn?”

6. Be You

Your Bumble bio is all about you. I’m not saying there isn't a way to do it wrong, because let’s be real, 300 words or more is wrong. But there is no “wrong” information. As long as you’re being yourself, your matches will already have a look at who you are. We see millions of generic bios, don’t be afraid to stand out with yours.

Example: “I did my 3rd grade science fair project on laundry… If that doesn't make me wife material I don't know what does.”

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
