Most men write dating bios like they are writing a CV for a job they are desperate to get.
They list their hobbies, they say they are "nice guys," and they plead for a chance. If you are targeting women over 35, this is a death sentence.
Mature women do not want a puppy. They want a Silver Fox.
The Silver Fox is an archetype. He isn't necessarily old, but he is mature. He is stable. And most importantly, he doesn't need her validation. He is inviting her into his already interesting life.
Principle #1: Be "Un-Impressible"
Younger guys try to impress women by bragging about their car or their job in a loud way. Mature women see right through this insecurity.
The Silver Fox implies success, he doesn't shout it. Instead of saying "I make 6 figures," he mentions "Working on my projects" or "Enjoying fine wine." Subtlety is the ultimate sign of confidence.
"Hey! I'm a fun guy, I have a BMW and a good job. I like movies and pizza. Please message me if you want to hang out!"
(Desperate, generic, trying too hard to prove worth.)
"Executive by day. I appreciate sharp wit, good scotch, and women who know what they want. Not looking for a pen pal."
(Confident, concise, sets a standard.)
Principle #2: The Qualification Filter
The biggest mistake men make is trying to appeal to everyone. When you try to please everyone, you please no one.
A high-value man filters women. Your bio should contain a "Challenge." This psychologically flips the script: instead of you chasing her, she feels the need to prove she is worthy of your time.
- Instead of: "I get along with everyone."
- Say: "I only reply to women who can hold a conversation."
This signals that your time is valuable. Older women respect time above all else.
The "Copy-Paste" Template
If you are stuck, steal this structure. Fill in the brackets with your details, but keep the tone brief and assertive.
I enjoy [Hobby 1 - e.g., Sailing/Golf/Hiking] and [Hobby 2 - e.g., Cooking/Reading].
Looking for a woman who is confident, intelligent, and spontaneous. If you are just looking for attention, swipe left.
If you are real, let's grab a drink."
