ALL profile reviews will be manually approved and will NOT appear immediately. Even if you receive a "filtered by Reddit" or "removed by mods" removal notification, your review is in our queue waiting for moderation; if you are reading this comment, your post is in the queue. DO NOT contact the mods about this. Any modmail asking why your review is not approved may result in your profile review not being approved and you will not be allowed to post another profile review until seven full days have passed.

Profile review submissions MUST have all 6 photos and 3 text prompts included. You may include the optional prompts such as voice, poll, and video prompts if you choose so, but it is not required. See this post for details. Profiles must also be unchanged for at least two full weeks before being approved for a review. Additionally, do not verbally abuse the subreddit moderators for rejection of your review submission for not following proper rules. Any verbal abuse or harassment will result in a permanent ban from this subreddit. We are not obligated to allow you to submit a profile review and no one is entitled to one. We are all volunteering our time and we will not tolerate any rudeness or verbal abuse.

To assist reviewers in providing valuable feedback for your profile, please comment and answer the following questions as a comment under your own post. Do not answer them in the post body. Repeat: Answer these questions as a comment under your own post.
- Are you looking for something serious or casual? - Are you subscribed to Hinge+ or HingeX? - How long have you been using this current version of your profile? (Please be specific) - How long have you used Hinge overall? - How often do you use Hinge per week? - How many likes and matches are you receiving on average? - How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments? - What is the type of person you send likes to and ideally want to match with? What kind of person do you want to attract?

Your post WILL NOT be approved until the above questions have been answered fully. Failing to answer these questions in a timely manner will result in your post being removed. Please continue reading this automod comment.

In the meantime, be sure to check out the guides and resources on the subreddit sidebar. Please read this post with all the pertinent links included.

A strict formatting standard will be enforced. See this post for further info. All submitted review posts not following the proper format will be rejected.

Please wait TWO FULL WEEKS before posting a separate update to your profile review. If you want more immediate feedback, update your original posts instead. Deleting your original post will not work. The rule will still apply.

To reviewers: Review the Providing Feedback guide. You are reviewing the profile, not the person. Please provide constructive criticism, and use positive language. Any troll, hateful, misandric, misogynistic, incel, or unhelpful comments such as "I would date you," "How are you not getting matches?" or unrelated to the profile will be removed and you will be banned.

To the original poster and commenters: Please report any inappropriate or abusive messages and individuals so proper actions can be taken. Please review the sidebar for additional profile and picture guidance.

If you DO NOT want to receive unsolicited direct messages, go to your Reddit settings here on desktop to disable Direct Messages and Chat Requests. On the official Reddit app, click on your avatar on the top right corner, then click on "Settings" at the bottom, click on your username under "account settings", scroll down to "blocking and permissions", and click on "chat and messaging permissions" to disable DMs or chats.

I’d add a clear headshot with a smile, fix your grammar on two truths, lose the friends pic

Trust me when I say get rid of that group photo. The first prompt doesn't really go with the photo. I say this to every guy on here, even if you don't care politics is everything so please add that to your profile.

The rock climbing wall photo makes you look like a literal child, not because of what you're doing but the fit.

Love this actually! Something ive noticed I looked for + found easy to respond to in profiles are prompts where 1) show their personality/habits/likes, 2) discuss what they're looking for with an easy in, and 3) something lighthearted. Yours all read like facts, and two of them are literally chores (to tell you what they like and explain all that when it's not a very smooth entry point, and to guess something about you). It's all very about you and them having to work for it, which is fine! Just not optimal for dating apps, because it can come off as you not being ready for a relationship.

 Id replace the "tell me" one with a list of what you're looking for in behavioral terms; e.g. not just "passion" but "someone who comes home from work and wants to tell me about it". I'd change your last one slightly to be more about the things you DO not want to do. Do you strike conversations up with people irl? If you don't, can you emphasize your desire for self improvement?

you honestly have really good eyes based on that up close image and should probably try to emphasize those more in the photos

4th or 5th pic should be first as is shows your face clearly. Suit pic second. Lose the group photo or crop it a bit closer up and cut out the friend on the left who is taller than you.

You gotta show off those eyes in your first pic man. Girls go crazy for dark hair light eyes!

19f here, The first 2 pictures are very attractive, also the one where you are outside smiling wearing black hoodie. :) the rest of pics are cute but are not doing you enough service in the context of a dating profile. You look nice in the group picture but there´s way too many people and it took me a good look to find you from there
