25 Women Reveal Their *Biggest* Dating Profile Dealbreakers

We're all here for the same reason: we're single.

I love emojis as much as the next woman, but when you use them as a visual aid after every sentence of your profile, that's a bit much.

Using the number 69 in your username is never subtle.

If your entire profile is a rant about how much you loathe your ex, we're going to assume you're not really over them.

On a similar note, insulting your potential matches by making assumptions about them (as if all women on dating apps are the same) is a huge red flag.

Being open and honest with a partner is important, but laying out all your past relationship baggage to total strangers via your dating profile isn't really appropriate.

It's pretty rude to boldly proclaim that "all women are crazy," and it definitely won't endear you to us.

When I see the phrase "alpha male" in your profile, I don't assume you're ~manly and tough~ — I assume you have an ego problem.

It's cool that you like your car and everything, but you should probably work on your priorities.

Nothing to work with here, c'mon.

Knowing the proper use of "their," "there," and "they're" goes a long way, as does taking the time to write out full sentences.

Writing out a list of all the traits you don't want in a partner will make you seem super negative; instead, focus on the traits you do want.

You might think it makes you seem sensitive, but in reality, it makes us think you're using your dead grandma to get sympathy swipes — yikes.

I don't want to date a set of faceless abs, or you and 12 of your closest friends.

There are so many people on dating apps, and if your profile is either blank or super vague, we're going to move on to the next person who at least made an effort to write a bio.

Obviously, everyone has preferences for potential partners, but listing out all the physical traits you want comes across as super shallow.

It's OK to have different hobbies than your partner, but outright saying you "don't read" makes you seem immature and like you're unwilling to broaden your intellectual horizons.

It's important to find a partner who fits into your life, but if you're rigidly focused on filling a particular space and aren't willing to be flexible, that's a red flag.

News flash: all people are real.

If you're on a site specifically for sugar daddy/sugar baby relationships, then that may make sense. But mentioning in a Tinder bio that you want to "spoil" a woman seems condescending — we can make our own money, thanks very much.

If you're really a "nice guy," your actions will show that, so you don't need to tell us. And yes, women do like nice guys — just not the kind that expect romantic or sexual attention in return for their "nice" actions.

Can we please just retire this phrase already?

Even if you're only looking for hookups, have the decency to wait until all parties have expressed consent/interest before sharing the nitty-gritty details of your sexual fantasies.

Everyone can hold an intelligent conversation about something, and it's pretty demeaning to assume someone is unintelligent just because they don't share the same interests or outlooks as you.

Liking to hunt and fish is fine, but that doesn't mean we want to see dead animals on your dating profile. Seriously, that's not romantic or impressive in the least.

Ultimately, everyone has different dating dealbreakers, and only you can decide what does and doesn't ~do it~ for you romantically.
