Dating Profile Headlines - Step-by-Step Guide with 200+ Examples

Stuck making dating profile headlines? Want something cool but don’t understand how to? Or, do you wanna know what headlines are red flags? Wanna grab more dates with your self-made headline?

Well, I’m glad you do… because copy-paste headlines don’t appeal to many. And you reached the right place to solve all your issues. 

This think-piece will teach you the way to build your solid dating profile headline. Dating profile headline-making requires knowing yourself and your needs… so, jot down your traits.

Can’t wait to make the heads turn? Come on, let’s get right to it…

What’s a dating profile headline?

In a nutshell, a dating profile headline is a short and summarized sentence about you and what you seek in your date. It’s nothing like your CV headline so don’t be too uptight.

It’s better if you have an open mind and are willing to show your fun side in it. It attracts more potential matches as it gives a short glimpse of your life.

Wanna write one? Let me show you how to do it…


How to write a dating profile headline?

Writing your dating profile might sound intimidating. But you can easily get rid of your fears and head to your dream date with certain tips.

Don’t think much about it and be willing to adapt to different styles.

Or, pick a few tips from the ones listed below and get going…

1. Talk about a recent life event

Pique your potential suitors’ interest with something like “You won’t believe…” Add a recent change in location, school, workplace, or anything else. Make it sound interesting like it’s gossip.

This will be somewhat like clickbait online media… news channels use these all the time. Of course, you have a legit reason to share your experience through the change.

This makes a great dating headline along with a conversation starter.

2. Be clear with your intentions

In dating apps, many people come off clear about their intentions to be eye-catching. Everyone isn’t honest and online daters really wanna know what you’ll do when you’re dating.

It saves you the entire hassle of talking and figuring out your likes and what will happen later… only to find nothing matching!

Use your interests in this way “Looking for someone to enjoy bungee jumping with”.

Your potential matches get a slight idea about your likes and nature too.

3. Show that you’re funny, don’t tell

Use funny headlines to catch your attention. Your online dates will find you more interesting if you show off your sense of humor right from the beginning.

If you can make them laugh once, they’ll definitely ask for seconds.

Good humor is absolutely essential for a good first impression. A lot of people say “I’m funny”.

Avoid it because that sounds too bleak and people think you’re faking it… because if you’re funny, why didn’t you take this chance to show that?

4. Or, you can be direct about yourself

Use something true that makes you stand out from the crowd and a keeper. If you’re a woman… Are you more ambitious than your peers? If you’re a man, are you sweeter than any average male?

If it’s real, use three of your precious qualities in your online dating headline. Someone will send you a message to test if it’s true.

If your quality level impresses your potential date, you might soon hit it off.

5. Mishmash with something existing but be original

To make people click on your profile, you can also use some existing and popular headlines.

Don’t quote a singer, poet, writer, or anyone else directly… or, the rest of the world will think you’re too lazy! Add a hint of originality and describe yourself.

This will take some time so don’t hurry, otherwise, you’ll spoil it.

6. Be bold and obvious

If you’re just looking for a sexual relationship, show it on your online dating profile headline.  Let them know that you don’t want romance or anything mushy in your life.

You’ll also catch the attention of someone with similar interests. The best way to express yourself is “Wanna Netflix and chill”. Since you have your priorities figured out, don’t be afraid to express it.

7. Summarize yourself and your needs

Another straightforward way to make headlines for dating sites… state what you got, love, and seek.

For instance, “I have/am <degree>/<job>. I love <food, hobby, anything you sincerely like>.

“I am seeking someone to <your intentions: having fun with them while trying different eateries or partaking in sports…>”

Reveal the real you as concisely as possible. Don’t try to push in your entire resume.

8. Don’t be deceitful

Never add anything that’s not real. You have many reasons to think you’re a good dating partner…  so don’t add something irrelevant or false to gain attention.

Don’t pretend to be richer or more handsome than you are… that’s catfishing and legally punishable.

You’ll attract the wrong dates and delay your search considerably. Be authentic and real while creating a good profile headline.

9. Don’t belittle anyone

Let’s say you’re trying to be funny in the headline. Never demean another person, religion, nation, culture, language, or anything that might hurt one or more people.

Perhaps you had a personal bad experience in a nation and you wanna make fun of it. Make sure you don’t use the nation’s name but your experience alone.

If someone is from that nation or community, they will avoid you. Even if they have no connection with that entity, they’ll think you’re rude and avoid you.

10. Avoid personal information violation

Suppose at your workplace there’s a really slow person. To seem cool, don’t even think about naming that person.

Don’t use “I’m ten times faster than McD’s Josh”. Keep your dating site headline about yourself… never mention others.

Otherwise, people will think you violate boundaries and are insecure. You’ll lose lots of potential matches over this.

Want some examples? That’s great, so it’s time to show you some magical dating headlines for women…


Dating profile headlines for females

Women have a lot to tell about themselves. You can list it all but then, it might become an essay.

No, this is not a stereotype but because women have endless emotions. Of course, no woman easily wants to share too much info due to their fear of security breach.

But since you’re out here, you have two choices: either doing or not doing it. So, why don’t we show ourselves better to the world with these…

1. Wondering if Netflix can get me a date. Have any suggestions?

2. Bookworm + Frugal! Find me in your closest used book stores any time after 6 pm. Drop a text to arrange a date.

3. I bet I make the juiciest pizza ever in town. Wanna make a bet and let me do my special winning dance?

Now that we’ve discussed all the women out there, we can’t leave out the men.

Well, the case of men is a bit different. It’s not that they’re afraid of information invasion. But the issue lies in not knowing what to say at all. So, let’s find out what you can say here…

Dating profile headlines for males

Some men think it’s cool to put out sexual jokes to attract women or whichever gender they like. However, it’s a huge turn-off. It’s better to stay away from sexual references.

Some men are so introverted that they forget what to and not to share. So, let’s get a general idea about writing your dating profile headline….

If you have enough brains, you may wanna catch your potential suitors off guard. Your headline for dating is the best place to show off your wits and make them fall for your wisdom.  

If they’re hungry for more, you’ll surely earn a click from a new date. So, let’s have a sneak peek at…

Witty headlines for dating profiles

If you have a good sense of humor, always show it off to your potential matches. However, most of them won’t check your bio and might miss your humor if you don’t add it to the headline.

Use a mix of humor and brains and show off your skills to your potential date. To appeal to them intellectually, follow me…

If you’re more on the funny side rather than calling yourself witty… highlight your funny nature through your headline for dating.

Always stay true to yourself when filling in any details in a dating profile. If you add something witty and behave funny, your suitors might feel catfished. So, let’s see how you can be funny and not fishy…

Funny dating profile headlines

A funny man or woman’s attitude in real life will always be funny. You can’t change your attitude overnight, so why will you settle for only witty headlines?

Flirty dating profile headlines

So, you’ll naturally want someone who’s as clever as you. If you go for someone intellectually slower, the experience might not be great. So, let’s focus on your quality and move on…

Clever dating profile headlines

Being clever of the bunch is hard. Suppose you tell a joke, nobody gets it or reacts when they must. You try to explain, they get it and say “Ohhh…” and by then the charm of your puns dies.

Attention-grabbing dating profile headlines

Think about your unique qualities. The ones that aren’t common but someone of your preferred gender may eagerly want it.

Questions to ask yourself before choosing a dating headline

Whether you want to create a dating profile to attract females or males, make sure your choice is fitting of your intentions.

If your chosen type doesn’t fit the situation and requirements, it might lead to a bad experience. Before you begin writing one, glance over these questions, and carry on…

1. How to find a catchy dating headline?

Find something that makes you want to ask about someone else more. Since you wanna attract someone with a similar mindset, always think about what will catch your eye instantly.

Make sure it’s relevant to your personality. Catchy headlines will compel your potential dates to check your profile.

2. How to grab attention with a headline?

Make a short, sweet, and clear headline. It must describe your personality rather than just reading out a few adjectives.

3. How to make a good headline?

In this world, everyone is short on time. Not even a handful of people read your entire profile. So, make sure to build a headline that shows your type.

You might be clever, gorgeous, sweet, and witty… make sure there’s a flavor to everything in your profile headline.

4. How to create a killer headline?

Your killer headline depends on the type of potential dates you wanna attract. Think about the type of person and then understand what their type might be.

If you’ll use adjectives, make sure those are interesting.

5. How to choose a headline to catch plenty of dates?

To catch more dates, make an eye catchy, attention-grabbing, and witty profile headline. 

But that’s obviously not all. There are some things you’re better off without in dating headlines. Come on, let’s have a quick look here…


Headlines that you must stay away from

Some dating profile headlines can be so bad, that they make the potential suitors cringe. They find it so weird, boring, or nasty… they don’t wanna read further about you.

Though you don’t realize someone else feels that way, this consequently diminishes your chance of finding dates. So, let’s get to know what they are and be careful…

1. Avoid common greetings

“Hi, Hello, What’s up, How is it going?” All of these are boring, mainstream, and don’t interest anyone. It makes people think you’re boring.

2. Avoid the obvious phrases

“I’m looking for a woman” or “Wanna meet someone special”… of course you do! That’s why you’re here so you can’t create a good profile with these.

3. Avoid showing how special you’re

You might be a supermodel that dates only business magnates. You might be an activist and will date only if someone supports your cause… cool but that considerably reduces your chances to find good dates.

For a perfect dating profile headline, keep the strict rules.

4. Don’t be too direct about no romance

You may not be into real relationships… that’s okay but don’t show you hate serious relationships or that you only need genitals. That puts off people even if they’re into it.

5. Stop being creepy

“I don’t wanna die alone” sounds cool. “I wanna die with someone” sounds like a double suicide. Make sure your headline doesn’t sound like you’re abusive. Don’t use terms like “victims” and “kill”.

6. Don’t sound down

“This is my last try at dating” or its variants aren’t great for a dating headline. You sound so sad and pessimistic and your potential dates may feel you’ll push your emotional baggage on them.

Nobody wants to carry issues or babysit on online dating sites.

7. Don’t be too romantic

Women like romantic stuff but make sure you add something more to it. Don’t leave it at a romantic 5-word sentence. If there’s nothing else to it… even romanticism feels boring.

8. Don’t show you’re desperate

If you show desperation in your headline, they’ll know about your hard luck in dating. They’ll naturally assume something is wrong with you and avoid you.

It shows you aren’t confident and have a need to emphasize how good you are.

9. Skip the cliché

“Living life to the fullest” doesn’t do much for your profile. People move on from such headlines too fast. Rather show how you do it with pictures. Keep the headline for something more interesting.

Write a short note about how you lived life to the fullest. Describe it as vividly as possible.

10.  Don’t leave it blank

You’ll never get the right kind of dates if you keep the headline empty. The mass follows the headline more than the bio.

An empty headline shows you don’t care or aren’t interested in dating at all. Put in the effort if you’re really interested.

A word from ThePleasantRelationship

Your dating profile headline says it all. Don’t expect a sea of strangers to give you a fair chance if you don’t try to stand out on your own. 

An online dater scrolls through many profiles throughout their day. If your profile isn’t edgy, why will they even spare a click? So, make sure you compel them to check you out. 

The quest to find a suitable relationship or dating partner was never easy. It takes lots of trial and error. You might even attract the wrong type of people if you’re not clear in the headlines. 

So, always try to make something relevant to yourself. Create your dating profile headlines honestly and you’ll make a banger relationship headline in no time.
