I attended a speed dating event today

For your sake, I pray that you're more receptive to her counsel than you have been to ours, GM

Are you kidding? Of course I'm going to listen to her counsel.

She's my ideal type of woman (50-something MILF). Obviously I want to do whatever it takes to make my business card appeal to her demographic.

redo the cards

Use this as an opportunity to scrap the idea entirely.

So my dating/hookup business cards arrived today.

Long story short, I'm going to need to redo the cards (They printed out way too big. I wanted business card size. My fault for not paying more attention to the dimensions when placing the order)

Here's where the story gets juicy: It just so happens I ran into my next door neighbor when picking up my cards. I asked for her honest opinion (and assured her I can handle the truth)

Here's what she recommended:

• Use a different picture. She said (verbatim) "Your picture looks like a mugshot. Not inviting at all. You look better in person."
• She also recommended I remove my year of birth entirely.

Her logic for removing the birth year:

1. When it comes to assessing interest in a man at first glance, his looks matter more than his age.

2. She went on to say something along the lines of "For you especially, being into older women, having your birth year on the card could hold you back. An older woman might immediately write you off as too young if she sees your birth year right off the bat. On the other hand, if an older woman takes a liking to your looks and inner qualities, and then finds out your age, she'd be more willing to give you a chance than if she knew right away you're a 90s baby"

This is beyond pathetic

OP only make cards if you have a legit business and make the card in accordance with your biz. Then hand that out for numbers and dates. Not something generic or dating specific, but something that's a legit business.
