    I've noticed most answers are from men; I'm a woman, so perhaps if you are a hetero guy my perspective is useful.

    Your photo doesn't matter more than your bio, it matters just as much, but it will go first in the order of judgement so make sure you have something presentable.

    Now for the bio, you are short on words. Pick a few things that really define your character and that you consider your match must be ok with. So if you like metal and rock just say that, don't waste precious space on all your bands unless you are really, really really into these bands in particular. If you are a harcore fan of rick and Morty, sure include it, otherwise just say you like animation or sci fi.

    Same goes for books and movies. If there is an author you are an absolute fan, mention it, otherwise go for a couple genres you are into.

    I would start with saying you're a (career here) student. Saying what you study is useful, it states interests and it's an easy conversation starter.

    Then if you have a quirk or two mention them. They are good conversation starters too. I don't know, maybe you are one of those people who have the soapy cilantro gene but they still like cilantro or maybe you are particularly skilled at something.

    Happy to give further feedback. Good luck out there

    Do you have roommates? Siblings? How do you get along with them? What kind of friend are you?

    Do you have any interesting talents or skills?

    What kind of person do you want to meet? Would you date a vegan? What about overweight or obese? Do you want to consume drugs/alcohol together? Do you want to play Portal 2 Co-Op? Do you want to move in and get a dog?

    What are you studying? What books and movies do you like most and why? Does Linkin Park help you with suicidal thoughts or make it worse?

        Planning to draw? The only way to get better at drawing is to do it, a lot! Every day.

        Living at home is probably not a selling point but it’s probably best to be upfront about it, maybe you’ll find a girl who’s living at home too. Better not to waste somebodies time, or your own, if that’s a big deal to somebody.

        If I was you I’d describe your ideal date, maybe it’s a long shot, but if it works it’s a slam dunk. So like, where would you eat out, or take out, which video game would you play, movie would you watch, what beer do you want to drink? Or maybe your ideal date is to get donuts and go to a quiet place in nature and read a book?

        Anyway by being honest about yourself, and what you’re looking for, you may not be successful but you won’t waste any bodies time (including your own).
