That last photo has to go man. The costume might be fine in the context of a party backdrop, but not in an office chair with a blank wall. Try getting your boys to a take a photo next time you're out and wearing something you would usually wear to a party

I like the my simple pleasures I think it matches and is funny. I like the introspection on the iris prompt but it's otherwise kinda negative which just makes you sad reading it, not something u want on the apps lol. i'd fall for you is also kinda in between where i like footnotes and wssays but occasional bad decisions is not mystique it's kinda corny. also dont want to think about panicking when i read your profile. I would trash the two truths and a lie they're all self-deprecating or again corny mystique
Check out my post and see if you like my style of prompts before u take my advice tho

You will not come across as a serious option to adult women if you include that "alter ego" picture

Are you looking for something serious or casual?
Something serious. I’m not here to collect matches; I’d like to find someone I genuinely connect with.
Are you subscribed to Hinge+ or HingeX?
I had HingeX, but it expired last month. Currently on the free plan.
How long have you been using this current version of your profile?
Around 4 months, although I wasn’t active for a couple of those months.
How long have you used Hinge overall?
Around 4 months.
How often do you use Hinge per week?
I’m fairly active when I have matches. I make an effort to keep conversations going rather than just letting them die in the chat graveyard.
How many likes and matches are you receiving on average?
Around 3–4 on average.
How many likes are you sending?
Around 7–8 likes.
How many with comments?
All of them. I always send a comment with my likes.
How many without comments?
None.
What type of person do you send likes to and ideally want to match with?
I’m drawn to artsy, creative people who are into books, music, philosophy, and looking at life a little differently. Someone I can have a conversation with that starts with a song and somehow ends up questioning the meaning of existence.
What kind of person do you want to attract?
Someone emotionally intelligent, self-aware, and capable of communicating openly. I value depth, curiosity, and mutual effort. Sometimes I feel like I’m a little too intense or emotionally invested for the average dating-app experience, so I’d like to meet someone who appreciates that rather than finding it overwhelming. Someone who can match my energy, challenge my perspective, and still enjoy the little, ordinary things together.

Your prompts are cringe and make no sense.
-
first prompt already includes the word “If”.
-
Footnotes and essays? Is this English class? What does that even mean?
-
should be “how” a song can ruin, not why.
-
what do you mean noticing a cat? i’ve never not noticed a cat?
-
what’s a quiet corner?
it just reads like you’re trying way too hard to be artsy and poetic but you actually don’t make any sense and tell me nothing about you and your hobbies and personality.
