A trustworthy dating profile is substantive with the information that is provided.

In other words, you have actually taken the time to construct a dating profile that gives a person a very good sense of who you are.

Obviously, you shouldn’t divulge every single significant detail about your life and personality.

Doing this may make you come off as though you are trying too hard to impress someone.

However, you should give enough information that a person gets a good sense of what you are about and hopefully becomes intrigued with the prospect of learning more about you.

Constructing a trustworthy dating profile really starts with you asking yourself about the significant areas to your life that you would like someone to know.

Think about fun areas first.

In other words, try not to get too serious too soon.

People often make the mistake of constructing a dating profile that is just too preachy or demanding.

They lay out everything that they are about and everything that they want in a significant other.

Constructing a substantive dating profile doesn’t mean that you have to lay out every minor detail about what a day or week in your life is like.

Spelling out every detail in this way can make your dating profile very monotonous and boring to read.

There is a good chance that whoever visits your dating profile would have already read a profile like yours multiple times already.

You will simply bore them.

A trustworthy dating profile should first start with the fun aspects of your life.

This is often what makes someone warm up to you as they read your dating profile.

One of the most effective ways to make someone warm up to you early is to crack a joke or tell a short funny story or anecdote.

When you make someone chuckle or even laugh early on as they are reading your dating profile, you have created instant trust.

Using humor at the start is one of the best ways to construct a trustworthy dating profile.

There are studies that have shown that when you are able to make people laugh, it tends to lower their sense of caution about someone and they start trusting that person.

Think about how you ended up making some of the friends that you have today.

There is a good chance that there was some humor involved with some of your friends when you first started getting to know them.

Think about how that humor made you feel about them.

You most likely felt a lot more comfortable being around them and your defenses where lowered.

This is no different to when it comes to constructing a trustworthy dating profile.

Again, try not to be so serious so soon.

We are all human.

We all have funny stories.

Start with humor and then proceed to tell a compelling story about who you are.

Be sure to include your pastimes.

Try to think about pastimes that aren’t so generic.

In other words, if there is something that you really enjoy doing for fun that is not the norm, include that activity as well.

This is often what will set you apart from everyone who keeps using the safe activities when describing their pastimes.

This gives people the impression that you are trustworthy because you are willing to be different and not just recite pastimes that are the norm.

It also makes them more curious about this particular pastime and that may even give them a reason to send you the first message asking about it.

When you use humor, you build trust.

When you take the time to construct a detailed dating profile, you build trust.

When you are willing to be honest about yourself and say what most others may not be saying in their dating profiles, you build trust.
