Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this dating app called Bumble, right? And it’s got this thing called “prompts” that you gotta fill out on your profile. It’s kinda like answering questions so people get a feel for who you are. I wasn’t really sure what to put, so I did what anyone would do – I hit up the internet for some advice.
Turns out, there’s a whole bunch of stuff out there about how to write a “good” Bumble prompt. Most of it says the same basic things: be honest, be specific, and be positive. Makes sense, right? Nobody wants to read a profile that’s all generic or, even worse, completely blank. You gotta give people something to work with if you want them to start a conversation.
So, I started thinking about what I actually wanted to put on my profile. I figured I should be specific about what I’m looking for. For example, I put something like “Someone who’s down for spontaneous weekend trips and isn’t afraid to try new foods.” I also tried to show off a bit of my personality. I mentioned that I’m really into hiking and that I make a killer lasagna. Just trying to show I’m a real person with actual interests.
Here’s what I did:
- Show Authenticity: Authenticity resonates with potential matches. Share your values or what makes you unique.
- Be Active and Engaging: Swipe Regularly: Regularly using the app can help keep your profile active, which may increase visibility.
- Swipe More: Engage with more profiles to increase your visibility. The more you swipe.
But here’s the thing I learned: it’s not just about what you write, it’s also about how active you are on the app. I read somewhere that Bumble’s algorithm, or whatever it’s called, likes people who use the app a lot. So, I started swiping more regularly. I mean, it can’t hurt, right? The more you put yourself out there, the more likely you are to be seen.
Honestly, it’s still a work in progress. I’m tweaking my prompts here and there, seeing what works and what doesn’t. It’s kind of a trial-and-error thing. But I feel like I’m getting a better handle on it. I’ve even had a few more matches lately, so maybe something’s working! We’ll see how it goes, but I’m feeling pretty good about it so far.
