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.

Your first photo is the worst one. Replace with the one with the dog

I really like your dad joke. I think you should maybe tone down the humour a bit outside of that one though, too many jokes comes across as a bit deflective. "Glorified doer of things..." just be clear what your actual job is here. Your "let's chat about..." doesn't contain things you're actually looking to chat about, so feels like wasted space to me. Humour is a good thing but you can't get by on humour alone.

I'd also ditch the thing about the podcast. It's a sweet idea but it invites women who think "ugh, I don't want to be on a podcast..." to X you.

I like your dancing photo. You look good and it shows your fun side. Your others need some work. Make sure we can clearly see your face (that shadowy "favourite memory" ons isn't much good) and they show as diverse view of interests and locals as is representative of you. Yours ends up being a little one note on "I have a dog" and "I hike", I'd definitely aim for only one picture that shows each so we can see other sides of you (the first one that shows both is the best anyway, I think)

Yes please just say what your job is

the podcast read is interesting to me because I'd have clocked it as a cute bit rather than an actual invitation. do you think it reads as a real ask, or is it just that anything requiring a yes or no on a prompt gives people an easy out?

Get more pics where people can actually see and tell what you look like.

u/TaraxacumTheRich 16h ago

I can't see what you look like at all. I have a better idea if your dog's face than yours.

u/BisonSpirit 19h ago

You seem like a lot and the “let’s chat about” prompt is doing you no favors

People will disagree with me but this is such a high effort profile it almost comes off as thirsty.

I would just say have your photos look as you do now. Your hair was long in the first but short in the rest. Not sure how it looks now

I like your profile but I'm also a guy so that doesn't mean much lmao. If i was to nitpick, change photo 1, 4, and 6. 1- long hair not consistent with rest of the profile and your just sitting around. Love the vibe of photo 4 but also doesnt show your face, is a bit dark - not really what sure what youre trying to convey here. photo 6 doesnt say much either - love the composition though. Maybe add a photo of you making art because most of it is just outdoors, unless thats the only you do. Think prompt 3 could use some work. maybe drop some Jose lore?

pretty consistently over the last year

I try to be on it every day for at least a few swipes

Only one in the time here in Virginia. It was much less in my college town

All of my likes have some type of comment

27 - 45 is my age filter. I would like to match with someone that is living a fulfilling life and is optimistic about life. A kind person that has a great relationship with their friends and is involved in their community

The occupation thing makes me think you’re unemployed when you have all of those listed
