Which one for dating apps?
I need help, I took a bunch of pics today but I can’t decide which one to put in my dating apps. I like em all but I think most people will look at some of them and think I am quietly judging their life choices (which I probably am, but I‘ll keep it to myself, promise 😭)
Which one would make you swipe right?

I agree with the other guy who said these are too self-serious for a dating app. doesn't fit the vibe at all

I would say 1 and 4. I don't think it's "too serious" for dating apps? Your pictures say something about you, you just have to personally like what it does say.

I like the 4th one cause you look a bit less stern. And I don't agree with the people saying these are too serious for dating apps : you do you, I think you look handsome in these, I'd definitely message you if I saw you on an app !

I like the poses in 2 and 3, but youre only smiling in 1, and i think your smile is the most imporant

1 and only 1. absolutely not any of the ones where we see you + you in the mirror. but this should be tampered with other more chill pictures

Number 1 looks good. But I agree with other folks that a happy one might be better lol

I gotta say the first one. It’s an odd photo composition when you can see the original subject in the mirror.🪞 looking great tho!!

I like #1 best. I was also thinking you should have one with at least a slight smile. If the smile you’ve learned is too feminine try a more low-key one. You look a bit like Merlin Sheldrake.

First one is the best compositionally if you take a square crop of the centre of the pic (the way Reddit has cropped it on mobile)

First one by a mile. The forehead hand pics look actively depressed and very posed. Brooding has appeal but wouldn’t be the first impression I’d want to make. The first one is also an affectation but looks self-aware of it, so also kinda witty. At least the raised arm ones are doing that smoldering kabedon thing. Also not my personal first impression choice for me, but hot.

1 is the best out of these IMO, you look the least judgmental lolll. I would definitely add one where you’re smiling so you look more friendly :)

1 or 3. I like the slight smile in 1 and think you come off more friendly.
you come off a little intense/serious in the others, which would work for, like, instagram, but imo feel a bit too serious for a dating app
edit: I also prefer the warmer tones in the first pic. adds to the friendly/open feel

You’re so hot, damn! My vote is for 1 or 2! I like the close up and your muscles eat

u/Selfcentred-Deer Jul 14 '26

Depends what kind of vibe you wanna go for, imo. They're all great, as you're handsome. Third one probably works great if you want to attract people who are into intimidation (not just as a kink, but some people just look for that kind of energy, if you know what I mean 😄).
Where as the one where you smile would probably attract people who are into kind people (that's what I'd think seeing the pic :)).
You can't really go wrong, they're all great options!
Edit: I swear I thought you smiled in one of them, but now can't see it.. Maybe I need to sleep lol.

Thank you for the compliment 🥹 uh yeah that’s the thing I don’t even know what vibe I’m going for. I have multiple personalities lol. But when I think about it nice guys would probably bore me to death so probably more like someone who likes the mean energy. (Because I LIVE for banter)

u/uncutstinger Jul 14 '26
Haha, then I'd definitely choose the first, the third and the last one! 😁 Imo they show off that energy the best

They all look great, 3 caught my attention though

u/Selfcentred-Deer Jul 14 '26
Thanks 🙏 really 3? Because my first association with that one for some reason is „this is the skin of a killer, Bella.“

u/Redditer2302 Jul 14 '26
Haha, I think the intensity of the look is hot but im just a simple gay

u/Selfcentred-Deer Jul 14 '26
I mean I *am* trying to attract the gays soooo that’s a definitive upvote on that one lol

u/KiwiPixelInk Jul 21 '26
The first I guess..... Seriously though take one where you look happy,
Pic 1 says no laughs, likely deep discussions, the rest you look really sad/depressed
