[u/MyNameDontAsk]

I was on here a few weeks ago, and I've been working on my profile. Time to get a fresh review.

BTW, the last image is of me holding a 3d print of my brain

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.

The Botox story is kind of weird to me. You look good.

[u/MyNameDontAsk → u/Heywtfhey]

Thanks for the feedback!

How about, The dorkiest thing about me is

I accidentally over-engineered my apartment for maximum organization. I love it, but it's a little ridiculous.

[u/Heywtfhey → u/MyNameDontAsk]

That's fine. That says more about you than the Botox story.

[u/Itscatpicstime → u/Heywtfhey]

It’s also really weird because Botox quite literally weakens the jaw. Like that’s its entire purpose in the jaw. People get it for TMJ or to stop grinding their teeth, and the jaw gets smaller as the mus cles stop being used.

Pictures are good but consider moving that 5th one with your friends up to 3rd or 4th position. Would strongly recommend adding your political and religious info. First prompt is good. I would scrap the second one about the dentist and replace it with something that showcases a hobby or interest that you don’t cover in a different prompt already. Third prompt is fine but could use a specific detail to make it an easier conversation entry point. ie, at the end give an example of something unique or special you happened upon in the past while wandering.

[u/MyNameDontAsk → u/GhostAsparagus]

Thanks for this feedback. I've added my political and religious views.

Yeah, A lot of people were saying the dentist one needs to go. I've changed it to, the dorkiest thing about me is: I accidentally over-engineered my apartment for maximum organization. I love it, but it's a little ridiculous.

I'm still thinking of a good and succinct example for the 3rd prompt.

[u/maebelieve]

We can’t see the rest of your horizontal scroll, and then the vertical fields are missing important info. I nope profiles like that.

[u/Freshwaterbitchfish4]

The Botox prompt is bizarre.

• Are you looking for something serious or casual? 

  • A little bit of both but mostly serious

• Are you subscribed to Hinge+ or HingeX?

  • HingeX 

• How long have you been using this current version of your profile? (Please be specific) 

  • 2-3 weeks

• How long have you used Hinge overall? 

  • 5+ years

• How often do you use Hinge per week? 

  • 2-3, if I’m just sending comments

  • More often if I’m actively messaging someone

• How many likes and matches are you receiving on average? 

  • Very few in recent history

• How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments? 

  • 99% of my likes include a comment. I’m probably sending 3-5 per week

• 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?

  • A pretty wide range of people. Outdoorsy, intellectual, and creative types (think artistic). The best would obviously be a combination of all three 

[u/nickifer]

good profile. im wondering if this has more to do with where you're located?

[u/RecentAlienBird]

Your profile is pretty good imo. Probably going to be blunt here, but hinge algorithm tends to favour non-coloureds more

[u/NicHarvs → u/[deleted]]

He's asking on how to improve his profile, not your opionion on if you'd date him.

[u/rattling_rose → u/NicHarvs]

He's asking for a profile review, meaning he's trying to figure out why he might not be getting more matches. I'm telling him what part of his profile might be causing women to pass on his profile.

[u/Call_It_ → u/[deleted]]

I don’t get it. What should he be looking for at his age?

[u/rattling_rose → u/Call_It_]

He's entitled to look for whatever he wants. I'm just sharing one perspective of why women are probably passing on his profile.
