When they say “I don’t check this often so DM on IG” with their handle


1mCanniba1

I report those profiles as phishing / promotional scam accounts.


Particular_Row_4599

THE WORST. AKA I’m juggling multiple women/men or various dating apps. 🙄


Dry_Value_

That or they literally just want followers. They don't gaf about any kind of relationship.


I_like_cake_7

Yup. A lot of attractive people use dating apps purely to get social media followers. They’re not having any trouble with dating. Lol.


restarting_today

You can report any Instagram handle for promotion. Hinge doesn’t allow it :)


YellowFeesrival

When bio say to “entertain me” or something of that nature


Ryno5150

To me that phrase says “make me laugh, peasant”. Yeah I’ll pass.


midnightsunofabitch

I am not your clown, madam.


a_blueberry_plant

I am A clown, I’m just not YOUR clown


NuttyButts

Similar to "looking for someone who likes to have fun!" Like.....okay let me just rule out everyone who hates fun. Now that the 45 year old Catholics are gone, take your pick.


FoghornLegday

Have you ever met a 45 year old Catholic


lakhanmapuro

Bio that says "Just ask": Because apparently, their entire personality is a mystery even to themselves.


BeginningPrinciple48

Yeah if they can't put any effort into their profile, they'll also put zero effort into communicating.


Toidal

Also ones akin to 'I'll put something here later'


Independent-Swan1508

"i don't text first" like??? huh that's the whole point of talking to people


Liberi_Fatali561

It’s even more confusing when women say that on sites like Bumble, where they’re expected to make the first connection. (Literally how the app is programmed!). If that’s how they feel, then I just say “good luck.”


AlexRyang

My suspicion is that people copy their profiles between multiple dating apps and don’t update the information.


gpsrx

If every photo is them with a bunch of other people (especially if it’s the same people). I don’t have time to play where’s Waldo


xepci0

If every photo is with other people, they're the least attractive one in it.


Shoeytennis

They go for the cheerleader effect.


Jubjub0527

I call it the boy band effect. No one would have thought Justin Timeberlake was hot if he wasn't surrounded by Joey Fatone and Chris Kurtpatrick and JC Chavez's fetal alcohol syndrome looking self haha


Jubjub0527

It's always the ugliest person in the photo.


BalkeElvinstien

Actually I have seen girls who use a group photo with their uglier friends to make themselves look hotter in comparison, major red flag


No-Commission007

My real age is X, I don’t know how to change it. 🥴


yourlittlebirdie

“I’m 48 but want to date 23 year olds and have deluded myself into thinking I’m attractive enough to pass as 35 or are one of those men who “age like fine wine” (spoiler: he’s not).”


AffectionateTitle

Omg he was 48 and passing as 36. You meet Ignacio from Brooklyn too?! lol


I_like_cake_7

AKA: I signed up for this app before I was 18 and lied about my age and now I can’t change it.


No-Commission007

This is not the issue I’m referring to. I’m talking about aged adults 40,50,60 saying they are 1/2-a decade younger. And that isn’t an excuse, just don’t link your account with FB, it’s that simple and that’s a terrible security practice in ANY app.


pburydoughgirl

Yeah, I went on a date with a 63 year old whose profile said 53, which already made him a decade older than me. I haven’t unmatched and he still hasn’t changed his profile, despite acting surprised and saying that he’d already contacted the app to change it.


Schmomas

Or “I’m trying to bypass your age filters because I don’t go for people who are close to me in age”


baywchrome

“I want to land on a younger woman’s page who will hopefully overlook my real age when they read this”


PsystrikeSmash

Roman 10 year olds lying about their age 😵‍💫


il5ur2elh

bad grammar, blurry pics, and just plain rude bios


Sk3leth0r

Their bio says "Don't expect me to text first", a sense of entitlement is never attractive.


illustriousocelot_

Don’t expect me to text at all


ConcernElegant8066

"Must be able to handle sarcasm" always means "you have to be able to handle me being an asshole to you and not say anything back"


FifthGenIsntPokemon

Sarcasm is such a common communication form, stop pretending it's your weird quirk


delmsi

I’m glad these folks tell us upfront that they’re insufferable so we can avoid.


BetterRemember

Or "expect a good roast-to-compliment ratio" I'm not looking to be one of your bros ...


Future-Row6593

It’s such a red flag


cannabis_almond

when it’s a pic of a gorgeous woman but the very last picture is her and some crusty dude and they sneak in the “looking for a 3rd/unicorn” at the very bottom 😒


Effigy4urcruelty

And the dude is ALWAYS crusty.


cannabis_almond

every time. and you know it was his idea to get a third too 😭😭😭


GeneralChillMen

Overly aggressive bios: I'm not putting up with any bullshit. If you can't handle \[belief/personality trait\] then I don't want it. People with traits X, Y, Z don't even bother swiping right you will be ignored. I'm not here to be your mom. Where are the real men at? It's like, even if my beliefs/traits match up with what they're looking for, I'm still swiping left if they have a nasty, aggressive tone to their bio.


ThePegasi

Yeah I find this particularly off-putting. I can understand dealing with frustrations on dating apps, but if it's how you introduce yourself then it just feels confrontational like you're expecting to be annoyed by potential matches.


ThinkerT3000

I have a friend whose profile is clueless like this- “no fake tans, no wrinkles, don’t put a profile picture from before you gained 10 pounds”. He is 45, so who does he think he’s going to attract, a 25 year old bikini model? There’s a good reason he’s never been married. 💀


They_Are_Against

Wtf no wrinkles? How does one manage that!? Lol


ThinkerT3000

lol and its ironic because he’s a wannabe surf bum - haven’t seen him in years but I’m sure he’s got some major sun damage.


yourlittlebirdie

Also couldn’t he just not swipe on people like that? Although it’s probably a good idea he advertises right up front that he has a terrible personality.


kriki200

>Where are the real men at? Avoiding that bitch.


SimCynic

Any references to "hustle culture" It's a complete boner-dethroner. Being passionate and working hard is attractive; making it your personality is a red flag.


Bucky2015

I always liken women saying hustle culture to mean they are either an "influencer" or they are involved in an MLM. Ive never seen an actual successful business woman use that term.


SimCynic

And men who use it will tell you all about NFTs and crypto, all while their mattress is still on the floor


emstoke94

“My son is my king!” “Proud mommy of Ayden, Brayden, Kayden, and Jayden!”


JoeyGreenOF

Okayden! Bye!


Ho3Go3lin

When they put ask me anything but don't have any other information.


DisobedientAsFuck

hey, its nice to meet you. i need to ask you, what is the answer to: sqrt(|e^(pi * i)|) * x = ((-pi) * e^2 )/7.6329573994163 please show your workings with detailed proofs this is a time sensitive question, make sure you write your answer ***in*** the box provided and not beside it □


chaospaw

e^(pi * i)=-1 from Euler's identity. Sqrt(|-1|)=sqrt(1)=1 So you're left with x=((-pi) * e^2 )/7.6329573994163 or plugging into a calculator x=-3.04120711576

shetements

Report for both and they will get banned lol, bumble even sends you an update message thanking you and letting you know they banned the person 😂


Azerious

"looking for a person to film with!"


TheMoparPowerslave

People who are poly and want another partner. I'm mono and I prefer being with someone who is also mono


the_greek_italian

The worst is when they DON’T specify this on their profile. I had previously matched with a guy on Bumble once, and after I started the convo, he said, "Hi, my girlfriend and I think you're cute." Ummmmm.... what girlfriend? This was never mentioned before. It's fine if you're poly, but for those who are not, I think it’s better to say so and get that out of the way.


pollytato

They need their own dating app I swear! Getting greedy with the monos lol


ThePegasi

It's not exclusively for poly/ENM people but Feeld seems to be a popular choice.


teamasombroso

Even worse when they don't post it. I went on a date with this dude, and he texted me afterwards that he was married with a kid but poly and wanted to go out with me again. He just doesn't mention it because he wants women to judge him for him first. I didn't even bother to answer back.


Jac1596

It’s been a couple years but reading some of these comments sounds like people haven’t changed one bit. I had 3 For me it was anything mentioning them being toxic, like that’s cute or something. I’m Mexican so i would get a lot of latinas with the line “tóxica looking for my tóxico”. Hard pass Anything Astrology And when they put in zero effort. Like a “just ask” or “please be funny”, “knows how to keep a conversation going”( these people are the opposite of what they want)


Fresh-End-9296

Politics in profile


yeetgodmcnechass

Bios that say something like "make me laugh" or "entertain me" Clear indication that effort is going to be one way and I frankly don't have the patience to waste my time with that


youshallcallmebetty

If they call themselves “alpha males”


ImYoric

Well, at least they're honest about being sad and angry assholes, right?


Blooberino

Any bio that says they're tired of games... they play games.


sunshinerf

This also applies to anyone saying "no drama".


karennotkaren1891

Just reading the comments so if I ever feel like online dating again I know how to boost my profile 😂


Gatorader22

Just being relatively normal gives you a huge boost. The bar is through the floor nowadays


St_BingBong

Don't swipe right if you...blahblah


Puzzleheaded-Ear858w

Typically like, "I'm a single mom of 4, if you can't handle that, swipe left." "If big women are too much for you to handle, swipe left." Basically they're telling us what their insecurities are, and are pretending they're the ones doing the rejecting as a defense mechanism.


TheBassMeister

They only have a single picture and no or super short bio or all pictures are group pictures.


WestRace3552

Clearly edited photos


Sweet-Ad-7756

When they say “Not looking for drama”


Sad_Cause_3027

Posing with their pet in every photo


evilsforreals

"Married, looking for third" please let me at least TRY monogamy before throwing me to the wolves of open relationships


chadgalaxy

Bio is full of demands and negativity. All pictures heavily filtered. Any mention of 'being a true gentleman' generally = you're putting all the effort in and paying for everything whilst I just turn up and contribute nothing.


DelightfulandDarling

You don’t like total strangers assigning you tasks? /s


Independent-Bid-2593

Overly edited photos


rat_accountant

As a lesbian - profiles of straight couples looking for a threesome. Frustratingly common.


0621Hertz

When your first photo is SnapChat Dog Ears. This was 2017 before I got married.


bubble-tea-mouse

Too good looking. I rate myself like a 4, maybe 5 on a good day. When someone is extremely good looking, I get suspicious it’s a scam or something. I need someone the same level of ugly as me.


MarmaladeWhale

Oh bless you bubble tea mouse. I hope you do fine.


TheWeirdWelch

When it's obvious their personality revolves around smoking weed


Loud_Win6891

2 things: 1. A short,poor girl asking for a guy who is 6'0+ and makes 6 figures a year. 2. The whole "If you can't handle me at my worst,you don't deserve me at my best" thing is just trashy at this point 


Traditional_Poet_466

When they mention hating cats or dogs


EmuAccomplished6673

When they say they're "bad at messaging back"


Ok-Swimmer-7602

When a girl has a height requirement. “Skip me if you’re under 6’” or something along those lines. If you have a preference, all good. But please don’t put people down in your bio due to height. You can just not match with them, and on the apps that I have used in the past have let you put in height as an option. I’m 6’3 and I won’t match with anyone with public body type requirements.


myworkthrowaway87

Confederate Flags are an instant pass.


kagemushablues415

Can respect that. Gotta let them keep it in the family.


DearStart5588

When they have children


caseless1

When they have *photos* of their children. I’m totally okay with dating single moms.  I’m not looking to meet the kids within the first probably six months or so. It’s not right to come into a kid’s life if you’re not planning on sticking around.  And posting pictures of your kids on a dating site seems like fishing for predators to me. 


jusmithfkme

I saw one today where the FIRST PHOTO was (only) of her two kids, followed by the bio/stats, and then a picture of her. Like, no ma’am, that’s not how you do this.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Olobnion

I'm in my 40s, so it's hard to avoid parents if I want any dates at all. What annoys me is if there are no more details than "have kids". There's a huge difference between dating someone who's parenting a 16-year-old every other week, and someone who's a single parent with seven young children.


Ufokaraage

I saw one whose profile pic was her maternity photo. She got the self confidence, I give her that


CrazyCrazyCanuck

GamerGoalie_31

"Message first. Be creative. Hi, hey, what's up will not get a response. "


PM_Me_UrRightNipple

If their profile indicates they are a stoner. I genuinely don’t care if you smoke a joint on Saturday night, but I do not have time for someone who spends more time intoxicated than sober.


Prestigious-Bit-2962

If they have a photo with a famous person


External-Mobile2009

If they mention being "too busy" for a relationship


Mediocre-Change-3004

When their bio is just a single quote


draiman

Women who use group photos on their profile. Sorry not playing Russian Roulette on who you are.


[deleted]

Married and don't use them anymore, but before it was a swipe left if they don't look decent in normal ass pictures. I don't want to see your fake ass AI filtered Instagram posed pictures. You don't have to be a knockout european lingerie model, but I'd like to know what I might be dealing with day to day. Also overworked pictures means you're probably vain and trying too hard- not for me.


Bad-Lifeguard1746

Anyone who thinks CG doggy ears and nose makes them an attractive partner isn't.


daddytyme428

they have kids


caffeinex2

I'm going to go against the common sentiment here and probably show my age. I am divorced and have two kids. I was clear in my dating profile that I didn't want any more. Went on a couple of dates with women that didn't have kids. Realized that they, as nice and pleasant as they were, don't "get it". They're never going to the more important than my kids. So I learned that to really match I'd have to date someone that already had kids and swiped left on the ones that didn't have any. And it worked. I'm in my 40s though and if I were in my 20s and didn't have kids, I'd probably see kids as a red flag too.


Objective-Middle-676

The good ole classic photos of a shirtless guy holding a fish he just caught by the mouth.


Rubysage3

Attraction first. I mean if at a picture glance I'm not into it I'll go left. But if I read it then poly, kids, empty profiles or one liners, being demanding, negative or aggressive. Instagram.


PeachAble2833

Only baby photos


DCFud

1) Not attracted to her. 2) She has no text in her profile and is only going by her looks (even if she is attractive).


MrDjS

"Must be 6ft+" or something similar. I'm 6'3, but have no interest in you.


SkillusEclasiusII

Not having a bio. I swear this was 99% of women back when I used dating apps.


slothsareok

I asked a girl without a bio what she was getting into over the weekend. She responded saying: “Sorry for my delay in responding. I've been working all weekend and am also weirdly averse to general small talk questions” Like what am I suppose to do? Just dive into asking her thoughts on Brown v. The Board of Education?


SkillusEclasiusII

Haha well that would make for a quick way to filter out the ones who aren't a good match too.


QuantumJustice42

A lot of women flip the bird in my area in profile pics; this ain’t Rick and Morty, if you’re flipping off men you haven’t met on a DATING app I’m assuming you’ve got something seriously wrong with you, it’s trashy and callous and makes me think you’re emotionally immature. 


lluewhyn

ANY pictures of people flipping the bird in pictures annoys me, especially if they're older than 20. When they're over 30...WTH is wrong with you?


pollytato

I don't think it's as much of a trend anymore (been off apps for about 6 years) but I just had to swipe left if I saw any mention of The Office. It's not a bad show and I don't judge people who like it, it was just EVERYWHERE and I've never gone past the first season.


[deleted]

It's a decent show, but for some I swear it's like their whole life and they have to keep referencing it. For me it's just a "funnier than average sorta relatable filler show".


Eviscerator14

I do the same things with Harry Potter and Friends. If you’ve made a tv show or movie series your entire personality I’ll pass.


Balorpagorp

"Looking for the Jim to my Pam" or something like that(I could have gotten the names wrong). It took me a bit to figure out what was being referenced as I have never seen The Office and I still have no idea what is meant by it after finding out where it came from.


Suzy-Skullcrusher

An unattractive man whose bio shows he’s only looking for sex. Or worse they use their bio to complain about women. I never understood why some men do that


CumGoblin

I can appreciate someone being straightforward about what they're looking for- just sex, a fling, whatever. But I once swiped past a guy whose every line on hinge was derogatory to the women reading it? Like his "did you know" was, "Did you know you can trim your nosehair?" Like bro who hurt you. Bet he can't figure out why he's chronically single too.


SecondShort

If you have kids. I respect people who are upfront about it but at 22 I don’t want to be with anyone with children.


thul-

if their profile says "unvaccinated". this usually ends up being a political/conspiracy minefield


triangulumnova

Yep that's been a helpful one on Tinder. The fact that they go out of their way to mark it unvaxxed when they could have just left it blank tells me all I need to know about the type of person they are.


Noa_oa

Back when I lived in the south, a confederate flag in the background was usually my fastest left swipe. Though I figure my appearance made me an immediate left swipe for them too


CunningRunt

Single mom with multiple kids/baby daddies


Icy_Jacket_2296

It goes the other way too, I have so many female friends who’ve stated that they’d never date a single dad.


John4020v

Too many group photos


No-Possession-9334

If they use 'u' instead of 'you' and 'ur' instead of 'your'—I'm all for efficiency, but let's not abbreviate our future


livvkvj

Doing the middle finger in photos. Like are you trying to flip off your potential matches or do you actually think it makes you look cool somehow?


IGNSolar7

This one will be controversial, but I swipe left if they don't drink. I do, and frankly I've learned over the years that if they absolutely don't, even if they say they're okay with it, eventually they won't be, or will be bored when I want to go to a bar with friends. And that's a bummer, but it's reality.


AbsolutelyNuclear

That's not controversial, its smart. You are looking for a compatibile personality.


Royal-Reporter6664

Smoking ! Had to live with it for more than 10 years with the ex . Never again !!!


Silder_Hazelshade

Used to not care about this one, but now that I’ve had to live around people who smoke, it has become a full-fledged dealbreaker.


CreativeEmotion

- Memes as their photos - Anyone smoking weed in their pictures, or listing "420 friendly". - Photos with them and other people, making it difficult to tell who you are connecting with.


Automatic-Subject960

Pictures only taken from shoulders up and angled


Dynamite86

I stopped seeing it as often but "if you can't handle me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best." In my experience that is just an abusive person who tries using sex as a way to justify their abuse


ictoaunstiwigw

Profiles that are empty/nearly empty. I’m trying to date seriously - if you couldn’t take like… 10 minutes to add info about yourself, it doesn’t seem like we’re on the same page about dating. Also super negative profiles because you don’t seem like a very fun person to be around. 🤷🏻‍♀️


fluffheadsbanker

Women with filters on their pictures. Especially the ones that will also mention that “honesty is important” in their profile.     They are starting out by being dishonest 


Standard_Box6522

"Surprise me"


Distinct_Mix5130

Istg there has to be a bunch of People who scroll through the comments and realize "ohh shit ... Apperently I should take this out of my dating app" lmfao


DistributionOver5663

Just memes


lordlovesaworkinman

People who want to be friends first. Not looking for a proposal on the first date but I've got enough friends without trolling for them on a dating app. That, and anyone who's looking for a person who is "low maintenance." It just screams you want to treat them like a toy you'll play with when you're in the mood and then ignore them for long periods when it suits your needs.


OpticLemon

Men. I'm a lesbian, should not see men on dating apps yet it happens all the time. Either they set up their profile to be listed as women but are clearly men(not trans women) or they are part of a shared profile with their partner looking for a threesome. Either way it is gross.


Pringler4Life

Any pictures of you smoking weed, or references to being "420 friendly". I don't care if you partake, but this screams that you have no personality and all you do is get high
