If you’ve never used a dating app before, count your blessings. According to the Pew Research Center, nearly a third of adults in the United States have used a dating site or app before, but that doesn’t mean that they’ve all found love on there. Often, what people discover instead is frustration, rejection, and a mountain of bizarre profiles.
Men on Reddit have been recalling the wildest and most disturbing things they’ve ever seen on women’s dating profiles, so we’ve gathered their juiciest stories below. From bios that couldn’t possibly be perceived positively to photos from their first wedding, it’s clear that many people need some help curating their profiles. Enjoy reading these stories, and be sure to upvote the ones that convince you to avoid dating apps at all costs!

Any woman who puts her children in her profile picture.
I don't care that you have kids, but you should not be introducing your kids until the relationship gets serious.
Plus, putting your kids in your profile picture is just asking for creeps to message you.

"Let me be your next big mistake. I'm definitely NOT the one, but I promise you'll still be thinking about me long after!"
Oh, you mean I'll be suffering from PTSD after the trauma you put me through?
Lovely.

“If you can’t handle me at my worst, you don’t deserve me at my best.”
Look, I don’t want to have handle anything when I come home. I want peace.
Edit: peace & love. Comfort you when you have a bad day. Not coming home and hear you nagging about small unnecessary things.

"I'm not like other girls" is the same as men who use terms like "Alpha/Beta male".

Years ago on Plenty of Fish this woman wrote in her profile that she wanted men to send her their social security number so that she can run a background check before they chat.

Always run into this
Bio: Ask me
Interest: Ask me
Location: Ask me
Also, any profile that says “Boss Mom” usually means they're in an MLM of some kind. Found that out the hard way one too many times.

"You shouldn't have women friends" (at least she claimed to have no guy friends) and "I will share you with no one." (I am monogamous but that sounds a bit too possessive).

She doesn’t need to say that to a dude on Hinge, she needs to say that to a therapist.

Whenever a women proclaims that "she is a handful" or "she is too much". I find it super cringe because they are so proud of it, but for men its the biggest red flag in the world.

“You should not go out with me if you’re a liberal or believe in credit cards”
I get political beliefs being important to someone, but…credit cards?
A second one: an all caps paragraph about how much they hate you (the reader). Truly unhinged.
