There’s a difference between putting your best foot forward and creating a character.
Your dating profile can absolutely show your funniest, most confident, most interesting side.
But those qualities should already belong to you.
You shouldn’t need to remember how “profile you” would answer a question once you’re actually sitting across from someone.
A useful test: Could you comfortably expand on everything you wrote without needing a script?
If yes, great.
If not, the profile may need less optimization and a little more editing from the person who actually has to go on the date you.
