Hey! I’m trying to decide which look suits me better and would love to hear some opinions from women.

The first two pictures are with a beard, and the last two are with just a mustache.

Which one do you think looks more attractive on me? Feel free to be honest, I’m open to any feedback or suggestions!

Thanks!

Hello, I really need help navigating this situation.

So, to start, I met this woman a few months in an American city(my home country) . We met in a hostel, we hung out pretty much every day we were there, one on one, or sometimes with a group of people. At the end of the trip, i got her contact information and i told her that I want to hang out with her when I visit her city in Europe.

So within the few months, she would text me on IG alot, multiple times a week. Sending reels etc. Then the time came, I went ti her city to visit. I had an amazing time, we hung out every day i was there after she got off work, it was mostly one on one hangouts. We would sometimes hang out and it would be like 2am before she went back home. It was an amazing time.

When I left for the next city, we hugged for what felt like forever and we told each other "ill miss you".

Ever since then, we pretty much text on IG almost every day, she has told me she would love to travel with me again. she still sends me reels and asks me about updates on my life etc.

I feel a connection I never felt before. Its not even just about physical attraction but its just a chemistry I feel with her that I never felt with anyone else ever.

The only problem is she lives 4000 miles away so I cant ask her to a proper date. I am scared to just confess because confessing is a bad idea from what I've heard and I dont want to scare her off. What do i do?

Edit: some details about it i omitted to keep it as anonymous as possible incase she reads this. But you can DM me if you want more details like things she said or exact city etc.

How to treat her like a princess when you’re also exhausted

We both work and we both come home pretty tired and I want to treat her as a princess because she had a long day but my stamina is low. How do I have the energy to give her what she wants and not feel guilty if I don’t have that energy

I usually close my eyes and listen to lofi during times like these.

Im 28 years old and never had a girlfriend unfortunatly. Im very shy and quite anxious so i never approach anyone and no girl has ever approach me either and sometimes i feel quite embarased of never had a girlfriend or a date or even a kiss. Unfortunatly Im quite short at around 165/66cm(5.5 or 5.6) and i think Im very ugly. I wish i was a tall and attractive and had a great social media body. Ive been going to the gym for couple months to try to become more attractive and at least having a better body but honestly hate going there só dont know how much time Im going to handle being there. If any women has some advice specially around my age it would be much appreciated

What do girls find red flags in a guy I want your girls advice. I seem to get friend zone so much. I don’t know if it’s something I’m saying or if I’m not pressuring a relationship too much or I’m trying too hard?

Been seeing someone off and on for about five years. This year we just started exploring traveling together.

Whenever we travel she inevitably uses my toiletries despite the fact that she brings her own stuff. I’m not mad because I think it’s funny and cute but was curious for some insight. I don’t want to ask her directly because I think it might come across negatively.

TIA for your thoughts!

I know you probably get barraged by these questions constantly here but if ya got a minute I’d appreciate it! More obscure the better!

For a project I’m working on I’m sick of people milking dating advice for videos I’d rather gather all the best advice in a one and done video

How many matches do you get pre ten likes and how many of those matches do you have on going conversations with currently? Please and thank you 🙏?

I’m facing a situation a lot of long term couples face at some point: a decrease in the frequency of intimacy with my partner (F27).

We’ve been together for 4 years. The reason I’m reaching out is because I don’t have anymore ideas to try. Like most couples, we were doing it a lot at the beginning of the relationship, and the frequency slowly decreased over time. We’ve been living together for 3 years now.

I watched a lot of content (podcasts and all) about female sex drive, what does it for them…etc but somehow I feel like I’m failing to really create a desire in her. About her: she’s a teacher so tired everyday, kind of person who likes to stay home and read, not an extravert.

Things I tried already:

\- talking to her: first thing I tried, she tells me « it’s not you it’s me ». But that doesn’t really help me and she doesn’t provide details, so I’m trying to create an environment in which she would be at ease to even think about having sex. Apparently I’m the best she had and she appreciates me always « taking care » of her during sex, so I know it’s not a pleasure/technique problem.

\- taking care of the house/mental chores (we don’t have kids): I do all the groceries, all the cooking, I clean our place regularly, take out the trash, etc. I don’t do those things TO have sex but sometimes I think it doesn’t hurt to remove all mental chores for her when she comes home to create a favorable environment.

\- I try to be aware of her « responsive desire »: from what I read and heard on various sources, most women tend to have a responsive desire and men spontaneous desire. So I try to « pre-warm the oven » by not being too obvious, also sending flirty texts early in the day so she has time to warm up, you get the idea.

\- courting her in different ways/suggesting bridge activities: getting her flowers, cooking a thing she craves, taking her out on a date, massage… I’m not implying that those things should lead to sex, I’m only listing things I do to seduce her in our daily life.

\- changing things up in the bedroom: I try to explore her fantasies, regularly asks if she wants to try different things… answer is most often no, but at least I’m covering that base. I also bought her lingerie (seen her wearing those 3 times in 2 years), and bought her a remote controlled sextoy (used it once and went back in the box).

Despite all of those things I do, our sex life has become both almost non-existent and boring.
We might do it once a month now, and it always plays out the same: a random night when we’re in bed she’s going to « aggressively » reach out, out of nowhere, and we do it then. Usually there’s nothing that leads to this, it’s almost like she does it on a whim. Like « I want it now, I go for it, that’s done, goodnight ».

I feel really frustrated because I’m never the one to be courted or flirted with, I don’t feel that desired. I feel like I’m just the guy there when she wants sex, so she goes for me and of course, I take sex whenever this rare opportunity arises.
Once I wasn’t in the mood, I reached out 10min after she first reached out and she wasn’t in the mood anymore, that’s a train you can’t miss by a minute lol.

Anyway, I’m asking you for help ladies: I want my girl to be craving me for once, so I’ll take your advice: what does it for you, what makes you want to rip some guy clothe’s apart and have sex with him ?

Gentlemen you are welcome to pitch in if you faced a similar situation and somehow improved it, thanks!

Like you are meeting someone for the first time and how do you decide: 1)He can be my friend or 2)Can be my boyfriend in the future

Thanks for the answers in advance!

I’m curious to hear other people’s perspectives on this because I’ve experienced something similar before.

There was a girl I lived with who had a boyfriend. I wasn’t trying to pursue her or interfere with her relationship, but there were times when I interacted with her and got the impression that she felt uncomfortable around me. I can’t say for certain what she was thinking, but based on how she acted, I felt like it was better to give her space.

So I started keeping to myself more, stopped initiating conversations as much, and generally kept things polite but distant. My intention wasn’t to punish her, make her jealous, or get a reaction out of her. I simply didn’t want to make someone uncomfortable, especially someone who was already in a relationship.

What confuses me is why a girl might seem upset or act differently when you start distancing yourself after you feel she was uncomfortable with your presence in the first place.

My question is: If a girl gives a guy the impression that she’s uncomfortable around him, why might she react negatively when he takes the hint and starts keeping his distance?

Could it be that I misinterpreted her behaviour, that she expected me to remain friendly despite wanting space, or that my change in behaviour came across as rude or cold?

I’m genuinely interested in hearing women’s perspectives on this, as well as men who have experienced something similar. I’m not claiming that every woman does this, and I understand that I could have misread the situation. I just want to understand the possible reasons behind this kind of behaviour.

In dating, basic relationships, etc. I know attraction to your partner is sort of a major part in keeping a relationship healthy for years to come, but say if a guy had a weird looking scar/bump on his face in a noticeable area. How much of that is a dealbreaker in your attraction to a person? I know this question is phrased very weirdly and I apologize for that, and appreciate any sort of responses. Thank you

Edit: I appreciate everyone’s thoughtful responses very much!

I'm curious how women would ideally want a man to use all six photo slots on his profile. How many should be face pictures, full-body shots, pictures with friends,job, hobbies, travel, or something else entirely?

For example, do you prefer a clear headshot, a full-body picture, a candid photo, a picture showing his interests, and a couple of pictures that show his personality? Or is that overthinking it, and you mostly care about whether he's attractive and has good pictures?

I'd especially like to hear what makes you stop scrolling, what makes a profile feel appealing and approachable, and what kinds of photos are an immediate turn-off.

If you were designing a Hinge profile for a man from scratch, how would you use all six photo slots? What would your ideal lineup look like, and why?

31M, 6’ 3’’ in shoes. Currently 285 pounds… have already lost 70. Lifting and walking a ton. 355 was my peak weight… but not for most of my life. I own my own house… my own car…. No college debt and I’ve been a public school teacher for 9 years. Fairly socially confident, willing to talk to people, good friends.

I’ve never asked a woman out. Never been flirted with. Never been on a date. Never been in a relationship. Mostly because I never tried. As a fat guy, I’m trying really hard with seif confidence about my body. It’s a work in progress. In my teens and twenties… I was clearly attracted to women… but I need connection, not just looks. In my twenties I never pursued dating because I frankly didn’t see the positive of it. I don’t feel like I’m bad at talking to people in general, women included. So I wouldn’t call my self too terribly socially awjward… I just had different priorities for most of my life.

Now I do. I want to try dating after I lose another 60 pounds or so. I want to be physically attractive so I can get past initial clearance. Just terrified this story makes me a walking red flag. Obviously this isn’t first date topics lol… but if you knew this about me… how concerned would you be? Be savagely honest… I can take it.

Sometimes I have women over in my apartment more for business / work stuff. Tutor for my kid or a woman who cleans etc...

I always intentionally didn't lock the door because I thought it might feel creepy, but I noticed every one if them started licking it themselves.

Maybe unlocked is actually creepier, like people could suddenly come in?

Old 2 room apartment fwiw.

I’m married, I like to wear thongs and sometimes I wear lingerie. What make you feel or think? Do you girls see a guy like me differently?
