Bilinguism and online dating profiles.  Empty Bilinguism and online dating profiles.

Hello, everyone. I have a question about how to write dating profiles in more than a language.

I don't live in an anglophone country, but I have a decent command of english. Sometimes, in the online dating sites, i see cute foreigners, mostly anglophones. To help my chances with them, I've experimented with writing my profile in my native language and then adding the same stuff but in english. However, I haven't managed to do it in a form that's easy to read.

Any suggestions?

Maybe just do a very short-form section in English, just one or two sentences to give them a little info to go on?

You could also use it as a joking invitation for matches to contact you ("Anglophones: if you're curious about what all the stuff in [language] says, it'd be more fun to ask me than to use Google Translate").
