How to Write Yours

Make every statement message-able

The prompt's real job is starting conversations. "I've eaten street food in five countries" invites "okay, which five?" — that's a match doing your opener for you.

Let the lie be the flex

A slightly-too-good statement ("I know how to waltz") makes people message you just to call your bluff. Being caught is the win here.

Skip the negativity

No exes, no complaints, no "I hate small talk." Every statement should make a stranger's day slightly more interesting.

Test them on friends first

Play a few rounds of the actual game with friends — the statements that fool them are the ones that will hook matches.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good Two Truths and a Lie for Tinder?

Two specific, surprising truths plus one lie that's just believable enough to argue about. Specific beats generic: "I've been scuba diving with sea turtles" outperforms "I love traveling" every time.

Should the lie be obvious in a dating profile?

Slightly, yes — unlike the party game, you want people to think they've cracked it so they message you their guess. An unguessable set gets admired; a debatable set gets messages.

What do I reply when someone guesses?

Never just confirm. "Close — but the waterfall one is 100% real, I have photos" keeps the thread alive and gives them the next question to ask.
