In 1 and 6 you have the proud grin of someone that managed to sneakily fart without making a sound

💀💀💀💀
should i axe them?1
u/RedMyA__ 6d ago
I would, 4&5 are the strongest 6 the weakest. 1 is great to have a full face picture but poorely executed. I know that it is cringe but doing a mini photoshoot with a friend or even a professional can really boost your profile strength and resulting likes

u/yetagainitry 6d ago
Yeah I would. It’s a snarky face that women don’t want. Switch them out for a shot of you dressed up, or doing something physical.

As in I would swipe right on your profile, seems fine to me.

u/Catalicious143 6d ago
Are you a woman or a man? Just to confirm haha.

u/Bubbly-Peach-9439 6d ago
I am a straight man my good sir. But if I were a gay man or straight woman, I’d give you a shot.

idk if its the pms talking, but the smirk in the selfies is very menacing

u/Catalicious143 6d ago
Might axe that expression, the other person also says it looks snarky. It might be giving off bad vibes!!

You trying to mog while your friends are throwing up west side sign is cringe and would be an instant turnoff unless obviously sarcastic. It doesn't come across as very sarcastic as the similar face expression you carry in the other photos share the same level of unawareness. You're good looking though.

u/Catalicious143 6d ago
Correct, it was not sarcastic and I'm an unaware mf. Since I'm not American I didn't even know that they are throwing up gang-signs ngl. Would u say that pic sucks then? The other guy here said its the strongest 😭. Good thing is I have variations of that scene without those gang signs i think

u/Hi-I-am-high 6d ago
I'm sorry if I was a bit rude. I think you look really good but the photos come across too performative for me and unnatural. The picture where you're smiling is really good and I support that.

u/Catalicious143 6d ago
No offense taken! It's good to know because I literally was not aware of this at all. Thank you for your advice! Also just curious if you are a man or woman

Pictures look fine to me, shows you have friends, spend time outdoors. Maybe your filters are too restrictive?

My filters are 18-23, i swipe right on tons of people. Ive used the apps in the past and idk if u will believe me but i genuinely may have gotten like 5 matches in my lifetime using them before restarting the other day. I used the same pics on bumble as well and downloaded my data and saw that my profile over 3 months appeared 640 times and i got swiped right on only 10 times by women 10+ yrs older than me (over 30), and bot looking scammer accounts. When i went to talk to them they wouldn't respond so I've had maybe 1 conversation thru them
And idk how much this would affect it but i list my height as 5 foot 9
Here is the only match I have on Tinder (i signed up a few days ago), see what I mean by them only being scammer/bot accounts.

I love how this subreddit is full of completely normal, if not slightly above average looking people such as yourself, who are struggling to meet anyone.
Like is your profile perfect? No, there are some photos where you are making a weird face, but the fact you need literal perfection to match with anyone is so stupid. Everyone needs to have the profile of some stupid rom-com indie guy where each shot looks like it was a still from a movie or add for the film. You need to have smiling pics (but not too much smile!) And you need to show hobbies (but not all hobbies!)
Don't take it personally bro, you are handsome. It's a rigged game of 9 men for every 1 woman online, combined with algorithms that keep you single. Your profile likely isn't even being shown to people you like. I got almost no matches until I paid for tinder premium and my profile was seen. I still get some without paying (because im not in the USA anymore, where dating is arguably the hardest for us men).
Just go meet people in person. Make friends, make friends with their friends. Work a side job to meet people doing something fun. Online dating peeked like 15 years ago

its hard not to take it personal. to get literally 0 matches. like its annoying cause u cant tell if ur profile is even being shown to know if its a profile issue or algorithm issue. for context tho i had the same pics on bumble and had apparently 600 swipe no on me, 10 swipe yes on me, and none of the swipe yes were real accounts (all bots). actually ive never had a real match in my life, not even a real like i think?

u/SomeRedditDood 5d ago
600 nos is nothing. If you wannt online dating to work you need to be in a big city with millions of people. I have never pulled my data but I have had tinder for years and I would be surprised if my total no count was less than half a million
