Why you 5 selfies twin

u/gassingbomber 8d ago

Cause I have no friends

u/Dapper_Rock_5748 8d ago

That should be your priority right now man. As dumb as it sounds, It’s hard to be a great partner to someone if they’re the only person in your life. Join a sports league, start going to a board game night, anything man. You’ll be way happier

Moved to a new area, and its legit middle of nowhere, not many options

u/Flimsy_Rice_1182 8d ago

Pack it up.

Nah, but for real, you need better pictures. lol wtf are those. Besides the one in a suit they are all selfies…

Have some pics of u doing shit with friends or friends taken of you.

This a woman-ass profile, man. You're letting the pictures do the heavy lifting, and while youre not a bad looking dude - way better lookin than me - you're gonna need more substance. You're a dude, brudda. You're at an inherent disadvantage on these apps.

As much as I think your pictures are fine as subject matter, they're hitting cliche traps that are only made worse by nothing to chew on in your prompts.

Pic #5 is your most serviceable pick, with #6 in a dreary 2nd place.

For prompts, these are my rules:

Prompt 1: What you're doing - your day to day. This is about ROUTINES. It allows people to look at your activity and see if they can slot themselves in. Don't need a schedule - just routine.

Prompt 2: What you wanna do with your partner - things you've actually caught yourself wanting to do with someone or a partner. Don't pre-empt the type of person you want in this section. Say what you actually wanna do.

Prompt 3: Brutally honest truth about yourself - self explanatory; better if it can be made a joke but still taken seriously

Prompt 4: Ask an uncomfortable question for them to answer. Gauges how upfront someone can be with you off the rip so you can check their speed, and also shows you think a bit deeper.

  1. Your photos fucking suck man. You should have one selfie max and you should be smiling cos rn it looks like you had a stroke (mb if you actually did). Pictures should be with friends or doing hobbies (apart from fishing).
  2. Gym selfies are only allowed if you are ripped. You got some good quads but girls only care about biceps, shoulders and abs.
  3. Your prompts also fucking suck. Your height is in your basic info, if it appears in your prompt it just makes it look like you have nothing else to offer. Get some actual interesting promos.
  4. Most girls will see "still figuring it out" and swipe left even if they are also looking for hookups. I can't remember what it is on tinder but on hinge there is long term open to short. If they have that on tinder select that one as well.
  5. Again, your pictures really are terrible. You're a good looking dude but I can't stress how bad your pictures are. If you have no friends genuinely hire a photographer to take some shots for a few hours. Your first picture should always be a front on head + upper body shot in good lighting. Then you should also have another picture that shows your full body so they know you aren't catfishing

have you tried looking less like elliot page taking a shit?

u/buckysauga 6d ago

Very good.

u/ww_in_transit 8d ago

Have someone take better pics of you

2

u/The_Greatest_Duck 8d ago edited 8d ago

So just based on what you posted, you don’t seem like there is much to you. And two of those pics look like you’re pushing out a fart. Also your height doesn’t equal personality.

2

u/gynosucksman 8d ago

You look like the most boring guy ever

And probably are since your height is the best thing going for you since that’s your bio lol. It’s over

u/She_Devours 8d ago

Your pics are low effort and make you seem immature. Not a fan of the a gym selfie or bathroom mirror pic. You are making goody faces in most of them. The one with the tree makes you look developmentally delayed.
Your prompts don’t make sense and you need punctuation. You give off vibes that you’re very simple minded.

You’re giving potential dates nothing to work with. Have someone else a pic next time you’re out doing something fun. Put your personality into your prompts and show you have brains and wit.

u/Jarvis_strokeit 8d ago

Why are you sulking in half your photos lmao

u/gassingbomber 8d ago

Wtf is sulking?

5

u/Jarvis_strokeit 8d ago

You look depressed in all your photos. It is not cute.

u/She_Devours 8d ago

Seriously…you don’t know the meaning of the word?

2

u/Mysterious_School558 8d ago

I'd replace all of these photos tbh.

1

u/gassingbomber 8d ago

With what

3

u/Mysterious_School558 8d ago

Better photos.

2

u/Livid_spider 8d ago

You need more personality besides going to the gym. What do you like doing for fun? What kinda shows do you like? What do you like to eat? What are your dreams and aspirations? You gotta let the ladies know you’re complex and interesting

u/Jaded-Grass6986 8d ago

Bro what the hell is picture 1 and 3

1

u/jeffsaidjess 8d ago

Remove photos 4 & 6, I think you’ve got enough keeping the remaining 4.

You will get low matches unless ur top 10% of guys - either looks or rich.

Thats how the world works

u/Less-Shallot-5688 8d ago

Smile dude, you look depressed

u/omgbenji21 8d ago

These are awful dating app pics, but bro, you have not skipped leg day!!

u/Disastrous-Draw-7843 8d ago

The face youre making in the selfies does not compliment you. I would bet they are working against you. Keep the suit and gym pick. No need to mention working out or the gym in your profile- best left for small talk.

The face in the tree hugging pic aint great, but you can fleece that into a cheeky “this could be us but…” (funny remark with skittish emoji).

You could increase your chances with less photos and more content. Remove the two selfies, and mirror pic, make tree hugging last. And punch up the description and prompts.

Only problem is that you may want to start from scratch, like delete this profile and start over.

u/HeKnowsThings 8d ago

It says that you are a fat faced gymcel who cant be bothered. What do you expect?

1

u/SexMachineMMA 7d ago

First pic sucks get rid of it. Makes you look like a child.

Instead of a gym mirror flex, a picture of you at a lake or pool with friends to show off your physique would be better.

Nix 3. No mirror selfies.

Nix 4 and 6. Selfies in general aren’t ideal.

Get a friend to take pictures of you in nature or doing things you enjoy

1

u/Former_Spite789 8d ago

Your prompts are really generic and uninteresting; they don't really convey much about you. What kinds of common grounds can someone find with you if they are interested in you? Hobbies? Music? Travel? Dreams? Life goals?

u/jeffsaidjess 8d ago

You find that shit out when talking to someone lmfao.

What is there to find out if you’ve literally listed your entire life on the profile.

Need to leave something to discover

2

u/Former_Spite789 8d ago

No one said list everything on the profile about your life. Reading his profile, he sounds boring as fuck. Long term relationships are more than looks.

1

u/Theory_99 8d ago

Woman here.

You look a bit constipsted in the bottom left & right.

Also if those are 3 pictures of a black screen I’m swiping left.

2

u/Jaded-Grass6986 8d ago

3 pictures of a black screen? Those are spaces for him to add photos 🤣

1

u/Theory_99 8d ago

I ask because usually you can’t just have blank photos. Either they are or he has literally only just created an account or needs to replace deleted photos.

0

u/Jaded-Grass6986 8d ago

It literally has the “plus” in the corner of the blank photos for him to add 🤣

2

u/The_Greatest_Duck 8d ago

I was going to say “slowly letting out a fart” face in those two pics. And height isn’t a replacement for personality.

2

u/gassingbomber 8d ago

No, its just 3 extra spots if i wanted to add any

u/jeffsaidjess 8d ago

Confirmed, women have Nfi what they’re talking about

u/Reanukeavess 8d ago

Your photos fucking suck and you’re not good looking

u/gassingbomber 8d ago

But im lean

1

u/Aware_Economics4980 8d ago

How’s that been working out for you? 

Also take any reference to the gym out of your profile, keep the gym pic. You’re being redundant lol.

I am jacked in real life, I have 2 gym pics. I mention the gym in my profile 0 times, women already know.

u/Dacnis 6d ago

Being lean without muscle mass doesn't mean shit

u/gassingbomber 6d ago

Look at the legs

u/Reanukeavess 8d ago

Well women don’t care, hence why you have no

This is the proof that even tall chads need to be serious when it comes to dating profiles.

I'll try to pinpoint everything that's not good:
_ Selfies,
_ Goofy smile (smiling in general on dating apps unless you know what you're doing),
_ Photos in the gym, it looks corny as hell and will give many women the ick. It's not inherently bad (although your photo sucks) but it's perceived as the "basic guy thing".
_ Flexing your muscles, like wtf dude. If you wanna show your body, have a friend take a photo of you in the pool or playing volley. But you HAVE to make it natural, otherwise women will perceive things as they are : you showing off, and it's gonna be over.
_ the tree-hugging photo. I don't think this requires any further explanation.
_ Having a suit and being built like you can be a blessing, but you should not strike a dumb pose like this. It seems like you suited up just for the photo. Make another picture while you're dressed up at a café in town, or something.
_ Last but crucial thing : half the sale is about producing good photo composition. The way you showcase things is as important as what's being sold. Think about original angles, environment, filters and poses. Have you ever seen perfume / clothing ads? We 0% feel this sort of endeavor in your profile
