You have to put some kind of bio.....

Talk about how you love history.

I wish you still worked in the bookstore; working in a bookstore and being into reading can be segued.

I don’t read books though. Haven’t read a book in 10 years.

I dont know how to phrase bio in a positive attractive way

Probably won’t help since I’m ugly

^^

Here's a thought. If I am writing something for a job: It feels like mostly I get frustrated easily, misunderstand things, am pedantic, too detailed, don't chit chat... etc. ad naseum... and that sometimes I am have amazing insight, am fun, can run circles around folks with requirements, etc." ---- delete Part 1 (mostly negative), keep Part 2 (sometimes positive).

You could also try asking someone who already likes you to describe you.

Fo example,

Ask your mom/dad/brother how they would describe you, or ask them what they think your best qualities are.

Ask your friends to describe you. It might Be easier with a friend to explain the description is for a dating profile, and they'll probably be happy to help.

Good luck!

Family members are biased.

And friends would never be bluntly honest.

^ Hopefully they could spot some of Sly's positive characteristics that he has overlooked.

Yeah....so family members are biased. Sly has to put a positive aspect for his bio.

And stop saying you’re ugly, Sly. Because you are not ugly. It’s a lie to yourself.

It's not about being bluntly honest and unbiased, it's about writing something that sounds nice and is not false.

Women say I’m ugly, never had one legitimate say I’m cute, handsome or good looking who isn’t family lying. I know this lie, I tell ugly family members they aren’t ugly.

Was really hoping people here could help me word it properly I’m not good with words, but , it probably wouldn’t help. Just last night I got rejected by woman very much like me, but fatter. Said she’s laid back and isn’t judgmental but clearly found me ugly so no go :( that or and my job

She likely wouldn’t reply , as women in wp say they don’t owe us a explaintion.
Probably cause I’m poor and ugly and she wanna a handsome well off guy
