Men: Improve Your Bumble Profiles

In This Article:

Okay guys, let's talk about your Bumble profiles, because women are swiping left when you have so much potential for them to swipe right! I'm going to list some very important and simple ways for you to turn your profiles around.

NEVER leave your bio blank

First of all, you're banking on women thinking you're THAT attractive that personality doesn't matter. On top of that, you're hoping they're interested in a complete stranger that won't list a single fact about himself...

No bio = swipe left

Make sure you identify yourself in the photos!

Do not only put group photos on your profile because no one wants to guess which guy you are. Imagine you meet a girl in person (if she even swipes right with all those group photos) and she thought you were your friend? AWKWARD.

Even if you do identify yourself in the text options, you should have at least one photo of just you, maybe even a selfie.

Only group photos = swipe left

Start with a good photo

No one wants to see your photos get progressively better, because frankly, they probably won't scroll long enough to get to your best one. I'm not going to give you a lesson on taking selfies, but trust me, some angles are MUCH better than others.

If you really like the photo, then great! There's nothing wrong with getting a friend's opinion either.

I suggest using just a good photo, and save your best for the middle of the ones you include.

Horrible first photo = swipe left

Yes, you should answer all of the standard questions

I hate to break it to you, but height does matter to a lot of people, men and women included. So just put down your height, because no matter how great your personality is, some women will meet you and won't give you a second date based on height alone. I'm sorry it seems unfair, but you'll find a shorter girl one day!

You should also include if you smoke, how much you drink, if you want a relationship or not, if you want kids one day, if you love pets, and what your religion is because THESE ARE DEAL-BREAKERS FOR PEOPLE. Don't waste her time, and don't let her waste yours. Just be upfront and honest, and you'll find a girl that it all works out with.

Exclude basic info = swipe left

Smile with teeth in some photos!

If you never smile with your teeth, you either physically can't smile that way, hate your teeth, or are never happy enough to smile.

Unless you physically can't, you need to show your teeth, because smiles are SUPER attractive to other people. Smiles, hair, and eyes are immediately noticed, so flaunt the facial features you have!

Don't smile with teeth = swipe left

Maybe you read through this and think I'm way too picky about Bumble profiles. That's fine, but I know why I swipe left. Even if I'm an outlier, I'm not the only girl that has these reasons. Many of us think alike...try these things out and see what happens!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
