Why you should care about putting effort into your profile.

Make dating more fun for yourself and the people who date you.

Let's be honest here folks, taking dating seriously is hard work.

I’ll probably never stop saying that, and that’s because it’s 100% true.

We live in an era of hook-up culture, label less relationships, and a gripping fear of emotional intimacy. To be a serious dater looking for a relationship in today’s world means putting in a heap of time, effort, energy, and a willingness to be vulnerable. The only upside to dating in the 21st century these days however is the convenience of dating apps. Dating Apps like Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, Grindr, and OkCupid still have a lot of social stigma surrounding them, but you can’t deny they are helpful in our efforts to meeting new people and form potential partnerships.

With all that being said, having success on dating apps can be difficult. Thousands of people to swipe through every day, hundreds of incomplete profiles, dozens of conversations that never go anywhere, and some absolutely dreadful first dates once you meet IRL. If you are willing to bear this, then I congratulate you. Not everyone is willing to expose themselves on the internet the way we do on dating apps.
