Online Dating

Dear Yvonne,

I'm about to try online dating. Any tips for a killer seductrix profile??

Dear Kristin, Your first impression is going to come down to a grabbing username and headline. So get creative and, if you're not, recruit your friends for something inviting and noticeable that captures what you're about. When drafting your profile, use colorful words to describe yourself, saying that you're "vivacious" instead of "nice" or "driven" instead of "goal-oriented." Strive for a well-rounded picture that includes activities, interests, hopes, and passions. At the same time, keep things brief in a way that a browser will want to learn more.
