How do you write an honest dating profile without emphasizing all your perceived "inadequacies"?

You don't. As is the case with all individuals of high quality, you engage in social activities and establish connections with others.

[oswaldcobblepot]

That not at all helpful

[Nikki1989]

Neither is a dating profile.

Don’t call yourself Oswald Cobblepot. The Penguin is not hot.

[oswaldcobblepot]

But he is cool

[Opinion Owner]

Yes. He is cool. Might impress a DC fan. But a lot of girls will not care or will be turned off.

[oswaldcobblepot]

On most online dating sites dont you just use your real name?

[Opinion Owner]

Yes. I was joking 😊.

[oswaldcobblepot]

Oh okay

[Anonymous]

Be yourself and be honest

[oswaldcobblepot]

Is there such a thing as being too honest?

[Opinion Owner]

Depends on what you’re talking about I guess

[oswaldcobblepot]

I'm currently working a crappy retail job but have received a job offer for a job with the government. However, I have to wait 18 months to start my new job. This job offer is also conditional on passing background checks, etc.

How do you write all that on a dating profile?

[Opinion Owner]

Just say that you’re looking at a new career path if anyone asks

[oswaldcobblepot]

I guess that kinda sort of works

[Opinion Owner]

It should

[Opinion Owner]

I hope it all goes well

[oswaldcobblepot]

This was more for down the road. Im not getting on a dating site anytime soon.

[Opinion Owner]

Okay , well I wish ya luck when you do get on one
