Spring Cleaning Your Dating Profile: Time for a Fresh Start

Dating General
April 09, 2025•2 min read

There’s something about spring that makes us want to hit refresh—on our homes, our closets, and yes, even our dating lives. If your profile’s been collecting digital dust or just isn’t getting the traction you hoped for, it might be time for a little tune-up. Think of this as your friendly nudge (from me, your CMO-bestie) to give your dating profile the fresh start it deserves.

1. Swap Out Those Tired Photos

Look, we all have that one selfie from 2019 that somehow became our go-to—but let’s be real, it’s not doing us any favors. Update your pics with ones that feel like you now. Choose a mix: a clear headshot, a full-body shot (yes, even if it’s from brunch with friends), and a candid that captures your vibe. Love hiking? Include that. Obsessed with your dog? We want to see them.

2. Give Your Bio a Glow-Up

If your profile still talks about your short-lived bread-baking phase or that time you “couldn’t live without The Office,” it’s time for a rewrite. Keep it short, a little witty, and actually you. Tell us what lights you up, what kind of person you're hoping to meet, or your go-to karaoke song. (Yes, that counts as personality.)

3. Say Goodbye to “Hey”

We need to retire the “Hey” opener. It’s 2025. Start with something that makes the other person want to reply. A funny comment about their profile, a playful question, or even a random fact (“I make a mean carbonara”) can go a long way.

4. Be Upfront About What You Want

It’s okay to say you’re looking for something serious—or not. Clarity is kind. When you're honest about your intentions, you’ll attract matches who are aligned with you.

5. Revisit Your Settings

If you’re seeing the same faces (and swiping left every time), try tweaking your filters. Maybe widen your age range or search radius, or revisit your deal-breakers with fresh eyes. You might be surprised who pops up.

6. Lead with Positivity

No one wants to start a convo with someone who sounds over it before things even begin. Focus on what excites you, not what you’re tired of. Optimism is magnetic.

Spring is nature’s reset button—and yours, too. With a little time and some thoughtful tweaks, your profile can feel like new. Who knows? That spring fling could turn into something real.

So go ahead, dust off your digital self and let’s make this season one for the highlight reel.
