What Not To Say In Your Gay Dating Profile

Who let you post that tragic gay dating app profile? We need to stage an intervention before you ruin the entire gay online dating scene.

First in my gay online dating tips is to ditch the basic "Hello". You're giving off 'I have the personality of a loaf of bread' vibes. Instead, peek at the best free gay online dating sites for inspiration! Steal their headlines, not their boyfriends. 

And for the love of Cher, no more "Looking for my Prince Charming" cringe. This isn't 1950, Becky. Upgrade your sad cinderella fantasy to "Seeking karaoke princess for duets & laughed-induced abs."

Which brings me to rule #3: game up your gay texting, bitch! Enough with the played out pick up lines. Be original! Surprise him with wit. Make him literally LOL before asking for those digits, girl. 

In conclusion: craft an authentic, spice-filled profile reflecting your humor and passions! The gays will eat it up, honey. Even the toxic masc guys...well, we can't save them all. C'est la vie!

Here's more on WHAT NOT TO DO. According to Online Dating Magazine, these are the Top 10 Most Overused Headers in gay dating apps:

10) blah. blah. blah.

9) Just curious

8) Are you the one?

7) Looking for a partner in crime.

6) Looking to meet new people.

5) I can't believe I'm doing this!

4) I'm the one your mother warned you about.

2) Hi (or "hello" or "howdy" or "hey there")

And the number one most overused profile subject header....
