The Best Bumble Bios [To Make Her Laugh & Message You!]

Looking for funny Bumble bios? You're in the right place. In this post, you'll find field-tested dating profile examples that are proven to be effective. Plug and play in your own Bumble profile, or use one as inspiration to create the best Bumble bio she's ever seen!

Our team of dating experts have written thousands and thousands of Bumble profiles for clients.

And we know those profiles are effective, because we also handle all the back and forth messaging for them too. We've arranged countless dates with attractive, highly compatible women for the men we represent online.

VIDA's team has been using Bumble daily since it launched in 2014, keeping track of what works and what doesn't work. We've watched Bumble evolve over time, and all of the strategies you're about to discover are based on years of research, data analysis and first hand experience.

Let's dive in!

Critical Acclaim Example

Why leave all the reviews to Rotten Tomatoes? This witty bio idea puts a fresh twist on a recognizable format, whether it’s a Yelp, movie, or book review:

It’s also a great way to showcase attractive characteristics, without being in-your-face about it. In the example above, your potential match learns you enjoy cooking, dress well, and work out. Sounds like a great Friday night, right?

Even though they're 300 characters or less, the best funny Bumble bios pack in a handful of attractive qualities - enough to make her take notice.

Research has found that women find attributes like a willingness to take risks, bravery, and courage attractive. So if you're wondering what to put in your Bumble bio, that’s a great place to start.

Better Than Those Other Guys Example

Chances are she’s swiping through profiles in between meetings, or while catching up on The Bachelor and checking social media. The point being, you may not be the only show in town. Boring is one of the worst things to be on any dating app, but particularly one where the woman has to choose you.

A funny dating profile like this may just be your chance to snap her out of auto pilot - and into messaging mode:

Did you know 97.4% of guys on Bumble are below 5'3", "between" jobs, and say their fave hobby is binge-watching GoT?

Hi. Jon. 5'11", exec, avid traveler ✈️. Would rather go skiing than surf a couch. Your turn - best adventure: mountain cabin, yoga retreat, or food festival in a mega city?

This good Bumble bio example has the trifecta - a funny beginning, a few attractive traits, and a call-to-action that doubles as a conversation starter. Who could resist that?

Surprise Her (In A Good Way) Examples

Odds are you’ve both come across your fair share of losers on dating apps, so why not forge a bond over the shared experience? This example pokes some fun at your competition, then let her know you’re the real deal:

#1:

Looking for the Total Package? You've found him. Married with kids, and looking for a side girl...😉

J/K, single, no kids unless you count my German Shepherd. Often found playing the drums, catching live concerts, or surfing at the beach. Can be lured in with whiskey sours. Answers to Mike.

Here's another example of how to use humor to set yourself apart:

#2:

Married + 👶 on the way. Prefer the term "collector" to "hoarder". Willing to leave mom's basement for the right girl...

I kid, I kid. Single tech consultant who prefers actual 🏄 over couch surfing. Into daily 🏋️ so I don't feel guilty when I grab 🍔.

These are fun bios for Bumble, but keep in mind this type of over-the-top humor tends to be most effective if you're looking for something on the more casual end of the spectrum.

Easy-To-Skim Examples

She’s checking out your pics and reading your bio on a tiny phone screen. It’s a point in your favor if she can easily skim it.

#1:

Pros: -Gainfully employed -Able to start a fire with two sticks (and some matches) -Great addition to any party - just add wine -Never been addicted to crack

Cons: -Not Channing Tatum -Can will serenade you in the shower -My molten lava cake recipe will wreck your diet -I'm a rebel... one time I loitered 😉

Research has shown that the more understandable your words are, the more likeable and intelligent you seem.

#2:

Tired of everyone selling themselves on here? Try this for a refreshing change:

Reasons NOT to date me.

-I never read software licensing agreements... I just click agree.

-I'm a rebel...sometimes I wash my lights with my darks

-Not Ryan Gosling #heygirIsorry

If you can look past all that... swipe right.

What’s easier to read than a simple list like in these examples?

These funny bio examples easily lend themselves to humor. You can substitute practically any line with an attractive quality or trait, and you’re golden.

Just make sure not to put anything actually negative in the “cons” section. That's one of those common mistakes a lot of guys make on dating apps, and it's not hot. Plus, using words with a bad connotation make you seem less attractive and inferior, which basically guarantees you're not getting a right swipe.

Emoji Bio Example

When you’re faced with a strict character limit, emoji are a great way to quickly convey ideas without using up much profile real estate. Plus, they add a lot of visual interest. So when it comes to short dating profiles, emoji are a win-win.

Engineer by day, 🌯 connoisseur by night. Extremely judgmental... when it comes to 🍷. Fan of that thing called the gym. My 🐶 screens all my dates, so you might want to bring some Milk Bones to win Sadie over.

Your turn: Brazil, France, or that exotic, distant country known as... Canada? 🍁

How To Inject Humor Into Your Bumble Prompts

Your bio isn’t the only place you can showcase your good sense of humor - why not add a clever line or two to a profile prompt?

Bumble Prompts are short, 120-character snippets of info that you write in response to a specific prompt.

You can answer up to 3 of them, and with over 30 to choose from you’re bound to find a few you can use to put a smile on her face.

The Bumble Prompt example above works on several levels - it’s funny, plus it gives her useful - and attractive - information. She finds out he’s a devoted dog owner, and who can resist a pug?

Everything you write in your Bumble bio should contribute something positive to the mental image that she’s building of you in her head, and make her want to talk to you off the app. Be careful not to derail her impression with “humor” that will likely turn her off, like in this real-world example:

Why Your Bumble Bio Matters

On Bumble, she has to come to you. That means your Bumble bio needs to do some heavy lifting. Sure, your photos matter a lot, but Bumble integrates your prompt answers and bio into your photo lineup.

Your bio needs to accomplish these 3 things:

• Makes you stand out
• Gives her an attractive taste of your personality
• Entices her to make the effort to message you

If your written content fails to do those three things, your chances of having a good Bumble experience plummet.

3 Essential Tips for an Effective Bumble Bio

Bumble doesn't give you much real estate, but that doesn't mean you can't pack a lot of attraction and humor into your bio.

Here are 3 essential tips for a message-worthy profile:

1. Know your target market. Ensure you're highlighting the personality traits & interests you have that the type of women you want to meet will find most attractive.
2. Make it pop. With attention spans as short as they are these days, catching her attention while she's scrolling isn't easy. Keep your profile tight and concise, with every word you're choosing to include serving a purpose.
3. Update it periodically. It's a good idea to tweak your bio periodically, as Bumble's algorithm prioritizes active users with more visibility.

It's a good idea to update your bio periodically, as Bumble's algorithm prioritizes active users with more visibility. Highlight interests and hobbies that are in line with the current season, and remove any dated references that will give her the impression you've been on the apps a long time.
