1. Photos of you and your ex (or any other female).
When
I see this on a guy’s profile, it basically screams, “I’m probably
still dating her.” At best, you will look lazy and hung up on your ex. At
worst, you will end up looking like a cheater who’s looking to score a
side chick. Do not do it, bro!
2. Personal bios that say absolutely nothing about you.
Oh,
so you like to have fun? That is great! I would hate to be around someone
who openly proclaims that they like to be miserable. And you like to
be both indoors and outdoors… so you like to exist? This does not really
tell anyone anything, does it? I really wish guys would be a smidge more
specific about what they like to do, what they do for a living and what
kind of things they dislike.
3. Rants about women.
We
get it, you have been hurt before. That does not mean that women will
actually be cool with you talking about how “all girls want is money or
looks.” In fact, as someone who was born female, I take offense to that.
Besides, if you so clearly hate women, why date us?
4. A laundry list of physical features you want in a woman.
Believe it or not, this does not actually help you score with the hot girls you want to date. Actually,
even if I was at least 5’7″ and under 140 pounds, I still would not date
a guy who had this in his profile because of what it tells us about
your personality. All that this ever shows girls is how shallow you are —
and how likely it is that you will not see past our bodies.
5. Discussions about your p*nis, or how you are in bed.
If you do this, you might as well just write “I am a fu*kboy” on your dating profile. It is trashy, and it suggests that you are probably too selfish to be any good in bed.
6. Your career resume.
Do not
get me wrong, a degree from Princeton would be really nice to have in a
guy. However, I do not want to date a guy who relies on his money or
degree to sell himself to other people.
7. Saying that you “deserve” a woman with a certain physique.
Even
if you are really physically fit, saying this just makes you
unattractive.
No one wants a guy who feels that entitled to eye candy, even if he justifies it by talking about how “hard he’s worked” to get what he already has.

8. Slut-shaming.
This
is scarily common on dating profiles, and I just do not understand it.
If you cannot stand sluts and hate s*x, why would we want to sleep with
you? Moreover, why would anyone want to date someone who will flat-out
call them a skank?
9. Photos of you posing with guns, knives or swords.
This
might work with a select few girls, but the fact is that it makes most
girls think you are the Unabomber’s nephew. Even if it is anime-related,
it is not something that is attractive. Remember, girls are often scared
of the fact that the guy they might be talking to online
10. Lies.
Lastly,
if you are 45 and claim that you are 35, I will eventually find out. If
you are talking about how you have a Master’s degree in psych but did not even graduate college, it will be obvious. If you are lying on your
profile, I will immediately dismiss you — as will most other women.
