How To Stand Out On Your Hookup Dating Profile

how-to-stand-out-on-your-hookup-dating-profile01

Having a hookup dating profile can be fun, however, you need to make sure that you are using your profile to its full advantage. Let us help you to know how to stand out on your hookup dating profile. The best way to get a great date is to make it look like you are the perfect person for them.

Now, this can be used to grab yourself a casual hookup or a serious relationship. Just because it might be on a hookup dating site doesn't mean you can't find love. Don't limit yourself. However, our main goal is to start making sure you can make yourself look good and how to pick out what people are lame. You want to hang out with someone who sparks your interests and not just annoys you like most people we met on these websites. Let's get this ball rolling.

Let's Talk Photos

Photos are the most important part about your dating profile. This is how others tell right away that they want to talk to you. You can make sure yours is hot without being slutty and cute without being prudish. So, how does one do that? Well, we got your answers right here!

For Women

Women listen up! We are about to drop some knowledge on you about how your photos should look. First of all, get rid of selfies. They won't help you. Like, congrats you can take your own photos. Good job. Now get someone else to take great photos of you. Put on the proper amount of make up so that you look nice but not fake and maybe fix your hair a little bit. Always have one photo of you that is stand alone. Follow it up with a group photo, preferably where you look great in comparison to others. Then have a photo of you doing something you love. Maybe you are big into hiking or maybe you are all about snowboarding. Whatever your hobby might be, just had a photo of you doing that. Then, if you are feeling wild, add a shot where you look hot as fuck. Could be in a fancy ball gown, could be a photo from ballet class, or use old faithful and go for a bikini shot. With this collection of photos it will show that you are fun, have friends outside of your partners, do more than just troll dating sites—you are better than that,we know you are, so, stop it—and end with a taste of what they can expect when they get involved with you.

For Men

There is no reason to post a gym selfie, ever. So, stop that now or we will haunt you. Straight up. Wanna know who takes gym selfies? Douche bags. Are you a douche bag? We hope not. Save that for your lame Instagram #gains #liftforlife. What you want to have is a nice photo of you just chilling and looking good. If you own a dog, take a photo with your dog. Girls will eat that shit up any day of the week. Next take a photo of you and your friends. Your male friends. While, it is totally ok to have female friends, most girls don't want to see that you have a harem of girls around. More girls means you're a player. Now, if your photo is you a bunch of dudes and couple chicks, that's ok. You are allowed to have female friends. There is no law against that. Have a photo of you doing something you love to do too, like working on cars, or boating. If your favorite thing ever is beer pong, maybe lie and say its not. No girl wants a frat bro. Frat bros are hookup material, not bae material. If you want to post a shirtless photo make it seem like there's a reason you aren't wearing one. Maybe you're swimming or on a boat or something. Don't just take off your shirt and take a photo. That is not cool.

Moving On To Your Biography

Your biography sets up the whole profile. This is where you can talk about your interests, your job, your hobbies, what kind of person you are and what you are looking for. However, this is very slippery line to go down. You want to seem available without seeming desperate. Let's get started.

For Women

Your bio should show off how cool and chill you are. Talk about your job especially if it's interesting. If you work for the Toronto Maple Leafs, that is something you should bring up. Sporty dudes will 100% message you. If you like beer, mention it. However, don't make it seem like you are always drinking. If you went to a good school, talk about it. It shows that you are smart and men like smart girls. Definitely talk about your hobbies as long as they are good hobbies. Shopping isn't a hobby. Fishing is. Also, make it known what you want without sounding desperate.

Example of a good bio: "I'm Candace, born and bred Canadian girl. If I could spend everyday at my cottage fishing and writing, I totally would. But alas, my job as a nurse keeps me in the city. I would love to have someone who just loves camp fires and doesn't mind spending quiet weekends by the lake with me. My favorite book is The Great Gatsby but I have a soft spot for John Grisham thrillers."

She mentioned that she likes fishing and writing, she bought up her job and mentioned what she wanted out of someone. Even talked about her favorite books and gave us a bit of a secret. This is great.

Example of a bad bio: "I'm Jennifer. I'm looking for my future husband on her, JK! OMG! I love shopping and whenever the occasion calls for it, a little day drinking. I'm not much for reading unless you count Pinterest or Cosmo. I'm not into dudes who just want to hookup, I'm a one man kind of girl. Snatch me up."

Everything about this screams, I'm DESPERATE. While we all love day drinking, don't mention that to potential boyfriends. This is actually a thing that will set you back. On a similar note, don't joke about marriage. This not only makes you look crazy, it makes you look so desperate.

For Men

Alright fellas, let's talk about your biographies. So, a lot of what we discussed with the women can be applied here as well. If you want to bag a girlfriend, you need to lay down some good honest facts. Don't talk about going to the gym. If you work out it'll show on it's own. Now, if you are training for American Ninja Warrior, that's different. Mention that. However, no one cares that you can bench 300 pounds. Good for you. Now shut it. Talk about how you love your mother, but in a cool not in a Norman Bates way. Again if you have a dog or pet, mention it. Never talk about just 'wanting to hookup', majority of girls are put off by this. Just be interesting and not a straight up douche bag. That is a big part of this. Don't be a douche bag.

Example of a good bio: "I'm Mark. I'm an engineer and work with urban planning and development. It sounds boring and it totally is. However, I make up for that by spending time hiking with my Carly, she's my golden lab and my best friend. I love to cook and would love to treat you to a bottle of wine and some good conversation over dinner. If this is something that you might be interested in, message me. Although, there's a good chance I'll message you first."

He was adorable when he mentioned his dog being his best friend. He mentioned he can cook and would love to cook for you. He flirted a bit at the end to show confidence without seeming like a douche. He also made fun of his clearly successful job. All good traits.

Example of a bad bio: "Sup ladies, I'm Craig. I live at the gym. Getting gains is my whole life. I love chilling with my bros and having a good time. I'm not looking for anything serious. Just a hottie with a body that doesn't mind waking up slow and maybe hitting the club with me. No big D. Although... it's a pretty big D."

I think you can see how this guy is a straight up tool? Am I right? Never mention your downstairs in a dating profile. He said nothing about having a job, or even having a real hobby. Hanging with the bros isn't a real hobby. Sorry guys. But you can clearly see how this profile sucks. Take note, gentlemen.

Talking To Your Potential Hookup Or Bae

Now that your profile is great, let's discuss how you will up the ante and get yourself someone great. You need to be able to be charming and smart in messages. How do you talk to girls? Do you just only talk about yourself? Do you find yourself making weird jokes? Do you open with a phrase like 'I would like you to sit on my face'?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, you are in serious trouble. You need to put that on lock. Let us help you. You clearly need our help.

Ask Them Questions

How are you going to get to know someone if all you do is talk about yourself. You need to be asking them questions constantly as well. You need to make sure that you are asking smart questions too. Ask about their job, their hobbies, what they like to watch on tv... That's a good one because you might be able to marathon the same show. That's the dream. Obviously offer up information about yourself but also make sure that you are learning about them. This is how you figure out what kind of stuff you have in common.

Don't Sext

I know you probably want to do that so badly. However, if you start doing that you will come across as a hookup or as a douchebag jerk. Both of which don't look great. You can tell them you think they are handsome or pretty. You can tell them you think they have amazing eyes. But steer clear of things like telling them they got an ass that won't quit or that you would love their legs wrapped around your face. These are not things that anyone wants to hear from a stranger. Also, dudes, this just shows off that you are a straight up jerk. Be cool. Come on. Seriously no girl likes receiving messages like that and you are just perpetuating a culture that needs to go. You are part of the problem.

Tell Jokes (If You Are Funny)

If you are one of those people who is naturally funny, use it to your advantage. Tell a few jokes, be witty and humorous. People respond well to humor. If you don't know how to be funny over messaging, then be charming. Tell them you are enjoying a drink while watching the stars but these stars have nothing compared to your eyes. Chicks will eat this up. Even if they respond with wow that was lame, you can tell they are still blushing a bit. Every girl likes a guy who is funny or charming. This is the magic spot.

With all that we have given you, you should have nothing but success when it comes to finding yourself a date on a hookup website. Whether you want something casual or something serious, these tips will help you. Hopefully it will also help you see that you can weed out the d-bags that are out there. If you are one of those d-bags, hopefully this will show you that you need to change your ways. Happy hunting.
