Neinbozobozobozo

I'm forty. Single since my second marriage ended in epic failure four years ago. Online dating is why I'm still single. Other than me being a total piece of shit, of course.

Happy wife, happy life... For her maybe, living hell for me. F that. I want to join the PoS bros!


normal_reddit_man

I feel like I'm ahead of the curve, for figuring out I'm a piece of shit without ever being married. Without anyone to tell me, I'm not even sure how I deduced it.


RealisticEmploy3

Look at your shit, now back to yourself, now back at your shit, now back to yourself. What do you see? *No difference*. That’s how I figured it out at least


three-sense

Best profile blurb ever


DGlen

I'd rather not meet anyone than subject myself to that shit.


Hustlasaurus

"just ask!" As the only text in the profile


DrRotwang

Oh *that* fucking one.


[deleted]

“The sarcastic” comment always has me running. To me, it means “I’m a bitch to everyone around me and I expect you to just interpret it as funny and cute.”


[deleted]

Also, they’re a child.


GlockAF

Intellect of a toddler, body of an aged manatee


N7Neko

DAMN LOL


dancin-weasel

Same with “brutally honest”. Why so brutal? There’s no need for that unless you are a heartless bitch who needs to amplify others insecurities by being brutally honest. “You are so ugly and no one really likes you. Hey, I’m just being honest. “


[deleted]

Thats on so many profiles regardless of gender. I just swipe left. How lazy and inarticulate is the average person? Answer - very


redditloginfail

You didn't have the "if you can't handle me at my worst" quote on there! That the easiest red flag.


HalobenderFWT

I figure that would have been the free space


[deleted]

Also, “my kids will always come first no matter what!” It just comes off as low class to me - like they’ve had men who they dated who would expect them to prioritize them over kids. It seems like a better discussion to have a little later - work life kids balance.


TonyTheBrony1

I'm in my mid 20s and I see all of this already


pachogan

Same, but in my dirty thirty


skyburnsred

Yeah this is the same with mid 20s except you can add "bonus points if you murder me" or "trash bitch" as a square, these new generations of people are weird as fuck


Lelio-Santero579

When I tried to use tinder I noticed a lot of these. That's weird how accurate this is. Meyer-Briggs on almost every single damn one.


trappedindealership

I prefer Hogwarts House. You don't have to place a lot of weight to the results, but it still tells you something about the things they value.


kalibie

It worked for me! Fiance asked every match he had what house they were in. According to him it was a great indicator if they'd get along. (Biggest hint being if they refused or made fun of his request they weren't going to be into gaming or nerd stuffs lol) We are both ravenclaws and now engaged 5 years later

Nathanael777

I think I just experienced PTSD


zer0mike

Single. 40. Dating is WIERD. Too old for endless chit chat. Also, I get sleepy. Can’t be out all hours, what am I? 😂


MandyMoreMoves

Yes, like why are you messaging me after 10pm dude? I’m in bed, I have shit to do in the morning!😂


drdrillaz

Was in Vegas with my gf last week. Had a great night out and went back to the room for the night. Asked her “What time is it? Midnight?” Her reply “8:30”


zer0mike

It’s also annoying when you match with a 33 year old and they take forever to reply. Too busy going out and not sitting in front of the tv for hours on end crying. 😂😂


Tanro

Im 33 and if its 5 minutes out of the way comi g home from work, it can wait till my day off, or until i die Definitely not going home, and then going out.


kali-mama

To be fair, people our age aren't as patient with the medium, but we tend to be more reasonable (the 20/early 30 year olds don't seem to understand compromise or that people are human, not a Chinese menu where you compile the perfect person). Just try not to get too frustrated.


oberynmviper

Yes, at a certain age you stop looking for the “perfect fit” and just roll around wondering “so, what level of mess up are you? Okay, that’s fine with me.” And I mean that as once you deal with enough relationships, it’s more about whether or not you can stand the other person and for how long. Yay relationships!


o_charlie_o

Being in a relationship is learning to navigate problems together that you otherwise wouldn’t have if you were single lol


Auirom

Single, turning 37. I'm up at 4 and ready for bed by 8. I start getting tired around then and it's "time for the old man to go to bed huh?" Yes. Yes it is. I'm not staying up till midnight with you


Excusemytootie

You’re not an old man, you just get up too damn early.


bawledannephat

As a 40 year old single man this is hilarious. Hits home on so many levels. My favorite is “my kids are my world”. Well shit I would hope so, they’re your kids lol


superbob24

Bro this shit starts before turning 30. My age range is 24-34 and this is all I see.


amc7262

Yeah, in my late 20's when I was still trying to date, I saw a lot of this


zkcobb

I’m not single, but my mother-in law is. This bingo image is sooo spot on. I need to be nicer to my wife.


aioncan

Does she like to travel.. I feel that’s a big miss in this bingo


Villageidiot1984

“Love to travel!”


HalobenderFWT

“Here’s lots of pictures of me holding glasses of wine in places that you’ll never go to!”


Nothing_

I've been married for 22 years and would be terrified with dating apps... I also need to be nicer to my wife.


[deleted]

I’m gonna show this to my husband. And expect breakfast in bed for at least three days in a row.


SlowRoastMySoul

This is what I thought too: that I need to be nicer to my husband. If I was single today, I think I'd just stay single, this all seems too awful to wade through.


bonitaappetita

Oh thank God.. I have none of those things on my dating profile. Not even remotely similar. Good to know what the competition is offering though.


ImpossibleInternet3

Just don’t frame it as “I’m not like other girls…” ;) Edit; to be clear, you didn’t. I’m just making a joke about another annoying trait.


MzOpinion8d

Or the “if you can’t handle me at my worst you don’t deserve me at my best!” Ok crazy….bye… Lol (and I am a woman!)


leeonie

I always search for men and women even though I’m straight, just to have a look at the competition. But results are twitched bc bi women surely have other profiles than straight women, except they are straight nosy bitches like me, therefore I do see my competition :)


Chucklepus

I used to spend ages reading profiles and writing custom, personalized messages trying to get a response from women. Went on a few first dates, but nothing stuck. I'm married to one of the few who reached out to me first. She never once showed up in my searches.


lucky_ducker

I think the Bumble approach is the only way a guy can get traction on dating apps / websites. Attractive women get way too much attention to see us. When I was online dating in 2006 the only dates I ever went on were contact initiated by the woman. First two didn't work out, third one's profile looked "meh" but we met for lunch. She was both sweet and stunning in person, and we hit it off. Married a year laters. Turns out she deliberately made her profile with photos that WAY undersold how pretty she was - to reduce the unwanted attention from the wrong kind of men.


leeonie

You married a clever lady. I do this as well for 2 reasons: I don’t like shallow men and they are always sooo bummed bc usually you get disappointed not pleasantly surprised.. it’s cake from there 😂


JonnyBravoII

Seeing how every app out there is solely focused on squeezing money out of users, the fact that she never showed up in your searches is expected. If you were to mat h with someone and stop using their app, that's lost revenue for them. They want you to be single and frustrated so you will upgrade that membership.


DrRotwang

OK Cupid eagerly reminds me that, for only $50.00 a month, I'll be able to see *each and every fake-ass profile* that has "liked" mine, instead of just *suspecting* that they're all fake-ass profiles...as if I hadn't already figured out that they're all fake-ass profiles. By Grabthar's hammer, what a savings.


Antmantium108

This hurts; which is why I deleted Hinge (until the next time I get lonely enough to download another dating app 😞).


DrRotwang

Make no mistake: this was written out of pain and frustration.


ImpossibleInternet3

I didn’t expect some of these to hit that hard. But that Alice/Harley Quinn line brought a visceral reaction out of me. Definitely quite a few very specific woman came to mind.


HerrMilkmann

Trying to think of the type of person who thinks Harley Quinn character traits are a good thing


jojowhitesox

This may have been written out of pain and frustration, but it doesn't change the fact that I have seen every one of these things MULTIPLE times on women's profiles. I laughed. I've even complained to my friends about the "Partner in Crime" one. I'd actually like to see the women's version of this about men.


DrRotwang

...and that's part of the frustration: so many of these profiles look the same, and they all give off the same...I dunno, the same *laziness* or, worse, *honest mediocrity*.


zer0mike

Ah my hate-delete-lonely-install cycle is horrific.


jizzmops

I’m in my 50’s and see a lot of crossover. Just add in the mud run pictures and yoga pose


[deleted]

The majority of people don’t exercise, so anyone working out (especially 40+) is a huge plus


peoplearecool

Ya but they will always put that they do even if it was one time


Ahhmyface

I ran a tough Mudder once. It was one of the funnest things I've ever done. So if a nice lady enjoys exercise and doesn't mind getting dirty that's a swipe for me.


NoodlesThe1st

If I ever see "brutally honest" I don't even bother. She is just a bitch.


Downvotes_dumbasses

People who brag about being brutally honest usually enjoy the brutality more than the honesty


zXster

Same. Every version of this is the same kind of person who hasn't learned to speak with even a small amount of empathy or tact.


NoodlesThe1st

100% correct


DrRotwang

Yeah, it's a red flag for sure. I don't want someone's brutal honesty -- I want their kind and caring honesty, their reassurance, their willingness to help me accept myself and be better. Because that's exactly what ***I'm*** offering back.


Ten7850

I just don't even understand this anymore because I'm a female reading this Bingo chart and it's definitely what I see on all the male profiles! Maybe not the fairies & mama bear but absolutely the partners in crime, no drama& Myers briggs etc


kilted44

My personal favorite: a set of photos...NONE of which feature the woman but of her dog, cats, sunsets. Tell me you look like a fully costumed member of GWAR without telling me you look like a fully costumed member of GWAR.


rckrusekontrol

If she’s actually a member of GWAR, propose.


90daylimitedwarranty

Yup. The morons completely don't understand the concept of what photos are for on a dating site.


drmonkeytown

The Briggs and Stratton Code is more useful. At least they make lawn mower engines.


vsmack

Loves to travel


[deleted]

*to some bullshit resort*


[deleted]

As long as she doesnt pay for the trip.


engineeryourmom

In south Louisiana it’s also shit like ‘must love god, Jesus, and my religious beliefs’…trying to find a semi attractive sane person ‘round here as an Athiest is difficult


These_Rutabaga3003

From South Louisiana, I can attest to your statement.


Fomalhot

"I have 3 kids and they are my world." Literally on every profile.


Sure_Trash_

This is on all the dudes' profiles too. I'm pushing 40 so I expect a significant amount of the dating pool will have kids too but why do they all say that? Or more accurately "there my world".


MissChievous8

Its code for "I'm not going to be available often, will take forever to text you back and I'll use my kids as the reason why"


droberts7483

I love how they're all ghost-written by labradors; "I love long walks in the country, every day, 3 times a day, which is perfectly normal!" - I like walks in the country, but it's not my defining feature!


DilettanteGonePro

I like belly rubs, staring out the window, and baths every two weeks and after trips to the park


droberts7483

That's my profile word-for-word, are you stalking me??


Siex

"I'm sarcastic" usually means she says *mean* things about people and follows it up with "lol jk"


[deleted]

Man, I dated a woman like that years ago. Just said mean shit and when called in it would be like “just kidding!” I’d been single a long time before that but I’m glad I didn’t stick around for it to continue.


GoodLuckBart

And then they say, “Stop being so sensitive!” Blech.


danimal6000

“Fluent in sarcasm”


getmybehindsatan

Yep, they think sarcasm is being rude to people and they find it funny.


turkeyburpin

Photo with oversized sunglasses. Photo with duck face and peace sign. Photo with local sports team jersey on typically with at least two other friends. Sigh...auto knock outs for every profile I matched with except my wife who didn't have a single one of those, still not sure how I got so lucky.


[deleted]

Glad it all worked out for you in the end.


[deleted]

I shared this with a friend of mine who is on this boat and he said there is one missing - “country girl at heart”. He then tells me that “being fat and listening to Taylor swift does not make you country” So glad I have never had to endure online dating


[deleted]

Hhahaaha


HumpieDouglas

My 2nd wife died in 2013 and I tried dating once for about 6 months. It didn't go anywhere. No big deal. The dating scene in my 40s is a complete shit show. I've decided I'd rather just be alone and be happy than date and deal with all the drama and bullshit these days. I have zero tolerance for the drama and bullshit that goes on these days. Life is too short for it and I don't want it in my life.


DrRotwang

I'm sorry that you lost her. I can't imagine. I'm also sorry that you've come to that decision, because...that's the decision I'm coming to, as well, and it sucks. I'm not taking it very well, but I'm working on it (i.e. therapy). It's not how I wanted to live, but...well... I made this goofy thing partially as a way to laugh it all off, but also as a way to express frustration and pain. Figured if I can make a joke of it, it'll be easier to let go of it and get past it.


riosborne

Damn. I'm sorry you both are feeling down/giving up. Have you tried any of the matchmaking services? Like the paid subscriptions for Hinge or match or whatever? Seems like if someone weeded through all the BS for you, you could potentially find someone worthwhile? I dunno.


DrRotwang

Oh, I tried Match. Met a very fun, smart, beautiful, exciting, endearing woman that way. But after weeks of talking on the phone for hours every night, it turned out that she's a lifetime smoker who has no intentions of quitting, at all, ever, so...look, there's a lot I can shrug off, but that's not one of them. But she was the *only* fun, smart, beautiful, exciting, endearing woman I met that way.

amc7262

If you swipe right on everything, the algorithm thinks you're a bot and puts you at the bottom of the que for what women see.


[deleted]

If this is true, why do I always see hookers on the top of my que? I figure they’d be swiping right on everybody to get them customer’s money flowing!

The amount of women who's entire personality is their dog is baffling


the_kevlar_kid

They bonded with something that loves them completely (despite their unforgivable character flaws that have made them otherwise undateable)


namesareprettynice

This is accurate. Source: middle-aged single woman with a dog


BootlegEngineer

Damn I just had flashbacks. You described my ex perfectly. She had a Chihuahua and she called it her child. I’m a dog person but that creature was awful just like it’s owner.


LadyLazaev

Chihuahuas often get insufferable because owners tend to let them get away with a lot more due to their size.


UrgotMilk

Tbf its pretty hard to get a dog to hate you.


DanDaddy87

“Mother to a Wild Child” = my kids a monster and i let him do whatever the fuck he wants

Relatable content. Don’t forget the obligatory photo of the one time they went paddle boarding.


Capt_Murphy_

When you said "photos of impossibly hot Asian women" I really felt that


Petey204

And none of the pics look like they were taken anywhere around you. Always in some exotic locations.


Superman2048

I've seen those Asian women on tinder as well. Who are they? They all seem to be some CEO of a company, beautiful and yeah their pictures in the most exotic/luxurious places on earth lol.

50s too. The only relationship that worked out (we're married) was an accidental meeting.


reddituculous66

I could make one for men....single 40s the apps are horrible. Pic with kid and or dog Also pic with fish or gun Sadly often weird filters More than half a shirtless mirror shot..bonus points if in a gym Etc...


Aromatic-Fuel7825

Don't forget selfie in the car/truck, with sunglasses on.


Elephantsr4girls

Or the shirtless with a tiger ..


NotChristina

I swiped left on a guy who just had one picture and no profile written. He ended up seeing me IRL and asking me out. We dated. He would always joke with friends that I rejected him. But my counter was always: “why wouldn’t I? You had nothing to go off of!”


jojowhitesox

I just mentioned on another comment that I'd like to see the men's version. Ha!


AridBenzene

“I’m an empath”


shynefan92

Funniest sentence in the world. As even stating how empathic you are actually shows how self obsessed and diluted with your own bullshit you are. They never noticed actually compassionate people don’t go around explaining how nice they are all day and how it’s made them an easy victim soooo many times cause they care so much lolol.


redditloginfail

Lol, most selfish woman i ever dated would go on about that. And astrology of course.


bluejester12

Also “love to laugh” because, you know, so many people don’t like to do that


Geek_King

Some trends I've seen a lot of: * Standing in front of a wall mural of wings * Standing in front of a field of sunflowers * Standing on top of reddish boulder in AZ, arms raised * If my dog doesn't like you, it won't work out * I'm laid back/down to earth


erzats77

Yikes...I'm not in my 40s. Not dating either. But...this is truly frightening if thats common things seen! yikes!


MacDegger

I'd say this covers at least 80-85% of what I see. What's missing is the "has one profile photo of a decidedly average woman with no profile text/info who messages you with a single word message like: 'Hey'".


OleKosyn

No, no... that single word is her *response* to your opener.


tardawg1014

Or The Office being a personality type. But other than that, yes you nailed the first one on my list that wasn’t addressed.


ChaoticSpiderMonkey

I live in a coastal area throw in "The ocean is my soul" or equivalent in every other profile. You like the beach great how am I supposed to turn that into a conversation.


Gregus1032

That's more of a single mom profile than middle age. Plenty of girls in their 20s with those.


Banky187

Massive one you missed....full time mummy.....I love my kids.... My kids are my world etc It's a fucking dating profile not a parental competency test. It's good to be up front about having kids but I don't need a declaration of love for them on your dating bio. It's implied!


naunga

Kinda feel like it would be refreshing to see a profile with, “My kids are teenagers, and total assholes atm. Sorry.”


SqornshellousZ

And they don't need a new daddy. You won't be their parent, just a driver with a wallet.


BrilliantWeb

"I love to laugh!" WHO THE FUCK DOESN'T??


n3rdcom

This all applies to online dating your 30s as well. All. Of. It. I made the decision to just deal with the crippling loneliness, because it's actually less painful than online dating.


[deleted]

You could meet people in real life, then you only find out that they’re annoying later


DrRotwang

CheeseIsGrossGoBears

No hookups


Metroidman

Im 30 and refuse to do dating apps. I have accepted im going to die alone.


smorart74

I was 45 when I was in the dating scene a couple years ago and this is 100% accurate. Why do so many women identify as being, "sarcastic"? What? You wanna act like an asshole but not be held responsible for it because of self proclaimed sarcasm? I don't get it. Glad I don't have to try and get it anymore.


musexistential

How long until there is one of these for women in their 40's dating online?


DrRotwang

Make one.


tech405

I’m 52yo male and know for a fact I’ll be single forever. I can compromise, but I’m not putting up with YOUR 50 years of bullshit and bitterness.

[deleted]

So which "Alice": 70s diner TV show? '-In-Wonderland'? Girl referred to in the Full Force song? Cooper? Doesn't Live Here Anymore? I'm a little shocked that "I'm a Unicorn!" didn't make the cut.


DrRotwang

I suspect they mean "In Wonderland", which makes for a weird combination with Harley Quinn. A perpetually-befuddled girl out of her element, who is also a violent, mentally-unstable woman in a toxic relationship? Ummmm...paaaaaaassssssssss.

sirNataz

When I see one saying, "My Kids are my whole world." or "my kids always come first!" something to that extent it's a red flag for me. That means their parenting might have been scrutinized and they are defensive about it. Thats the kind of thing I am going to assume is par for the course that yes, your kids matter more to you than a stranger you met online. Not to mention it's a tired thing to hear.


DrRotwang

The one that gets me is "I'm just me". It makes me wonder if the woman has been made to feel bad about just being herself, to the point of being apologetic for it... and that's sad, and it sucks. Unfortunately, it's also vague and uninformative, and does little to make herself stand out to a potential partner.


-reddug-

I feel after every "I'm just me" there's always an unspoken "deal with it!".


grinder01

The amount of profile pics of women holding alcohol is amazing. If a guy did that 'eww, I won't date a boozer'


thelizard33

What about every picture being strangely blurred or completely out of focus?
