Prompts and bio
Dating intentions on a dating profile, how to say what you want
Your dating intentions are the fastest filter on your dating profile, and 4 in 10 of the profiles Pullmaxx has scored left them vague or blank. Clear intent tells the right person you're worth a reply. A blank or vague answer reads as low effort and filters no one in. Run the free PullScore to see if your intent lands, no account needed and your photos are never saved.

Better signal. Better profile. Better pull.
Quick
diagnosis
Intentions are a filter, and a vague answer breaks it. Open to anything sounds easygoing but attracts no one in particular. Pew's research on online dating shows how much a dater's goals shape who fits, and a blank field hides yours.
- You left the intention vague to keep options open, so it filters no one in.
- The stated intent and the rest of the profile disagree, so she trusts neither.
- You framed it around what you don't want, which reads as baggage, not direction.

How your intention
reads to her
Find how you state your intention today, then read how it lands and the fix beside it. Clear intent filters the right person in, a vague one filters no one.
| Your situation | How it reads | What to do first |
|---|---|---|
| You left the intention field blank | Reads as unsure | Pick the honest answer and put it in the field |
| You wrote open to anything | Reads as no filter | Name the one thing you actually want to build |
| Your tag says relationship but a prompt hints at hookups | Reads as a mixed signal | Line the tag, bio, and prompts up so they match |
| You framed it as no drama, no games, no baggage | Reads as past hurt | Name the connection you want, skip the list of nos |
| Looking for a relationship, said plainly and backed by the bio | Reads as clear | Leave it, and let one prompt echo the same intent |
What Pullmaxx
checks first
What PullScore checks on your dating intention
PullScore reads your stated intention the way the right person does and checks whether it points anywhere clear. It isn't an attractiveness score, and it doesn't guarantee matches. A blank or open to anything answer filters no one in, so PullScore flags it as the fastest fix on the profile.
- Whether your intention field points somewhere clear
- Whether the tag and your written lines agree
- Whether the intent reads as direction, not a list of nos
- Whether a vague answer is filtering the right person out
- Whether one prompt backs up the intention you set
Readiness checklist
- Your dating intention field is filled in, not blank
- The answer names what you want, not open to anything
- Your tag, bio, and prompts all say the same thing
- The intent reads as direction, not a list of nos
- One written line backs up the tag you set
- The wording sounds honest, not hedged
- A stranger could tell what you want in one read
- You would trust this intention if you read it on her profile
Example result, not your score

Common
mistakes
| Mistake | Why it hurts | Do instead |
|---|---|---|
| Leaving intentions blank or open to anything | Vague reads as low effort and pulls in no one who wants the same thing. | Pick the honest answer, a relationship or dating with intent, and state it. |
| Contradicting your own profile | If the tag says relationship but the bio jokes about hookups, she trusts neither. | Make the intention, the bio, and the prompts all say the same thing. |
| Framing it as a list of nos | No drama and no games signal past baggage, not what you want next. | Say what you want to build, not what you're trying to avoid. |
See the difference
Vague intention
Not sure what I'm looking for, let's just see where it goes.
Clear intention
Looking for a relationship. I want someone to cook badly with on a Tuesday, not a text buddy.

You're probably
thinking…
What should I put for dating intentions?
The honest answer. If you want a relationship, say so. Clear intent filters in the people who want the same thing.
Does stating intentions limit my matches?
It narrows the count and raises the fit. The right person reads clear intent as a green flag, not pressure.
What if my intentions are still forming?
Say that plainly, open to a relationship if it's right. Honest and specific still beats a blank field.
Should the intention tag match my bio?
Yes. If the tag and the words disagree, she trusts neither. Keep them saying the same thing.
Is the Pullmaxx score private?
Yes. It needs no account, and your photos are never saved. They're read in memory to score your profile, then discarded.
“How much does it cost?”
Free to start. You get your score and one fix at no cost. If you want the full breakdown and ranked fix-list, it's $29 once. No subscription.
“Is this just fake confidence advice?”
No. Pullmaxx gives specific profile-level fixes: which photo should lead, what to remove, what to rewrite, and what your profile currently signals.
“Will this make me look fake?”
No. The goal isn't to invent a personality. It's to make your existing personality easier to understand.
“Is this only for men?”
No. Pullmaxx works for anyone who wants a sharper dating profile. The product supports men, women, and LGBTQ+ users without changing the core mechanic.
“I've seen these apps and they all just spit out generic AI slop.”
Yes, a lot of them do. They let a model improvise, so you get two different answers to the same profile. Pullmaxx scores against a fixed rubric. Every point traces to a specific photo or prompt, with the reason attached. See for yourself. The score is free.
