When I first wrote a profile for a dating site, I was worried that people would find me weird or be mean. Or that some things I said or wrote about myself might be seen as strange, offensive, completely unattractive out of the context of meeting me.
So I first wrote this thing that was like... me so watered down it was barely recognizable. And everyone I interacted with kind of sucked.

Then I got annoyed, cleared it out and just began writing, quite literally- whatever came into my brain. It was kind of a hobby- I'd have trouble sleeping and then go write some other random thing that occurred to me on my dating profile [and actually mentioned that I did this ON the profile].

After I made it more geninely "me", I was able to connect with people more fitting for me to engage with.

I don't know if there is a moral to this story, but that was my experience.
You kind of have to just be like "F*** 'em if they can't take a joke"
