Thanks a lot man! And yes, I agree that it does look a bit too clean with no low-quality social pics.
Yeah, I imagine it's basically the same. I've gotten laid 3 times off Tinder where I currently live, with a population of around 35k. But overall the action I'm getting from apps have been slowly dying down over the last couple of months.Lord Rey wrote: ↑Sun Jun 26, 2022 1:47 pmYour photos are fucking great man ! You just lack a group picture, but your profile looks rock solid otherwise.
You already know what your problem is : your location.
That's the bottleneck of your success on Tinder, nothing will help you as much as moving to a truly big city (at least 500K pops).
I have never been to Norway, but I think it's similar to Switzerland : rich country + low density population = garbage-tier dating market.
I lived all my life in the Alps (a region with small cities of 20K to 35K pops) and I never got laid on Tinder there, even after getting into self-improvement and with Andy's coaching. All my Tinder lays are from abroad.
100% gonna have it running this summer while I travel the states (LA, Vegas and SF), and try to get some more normal-looking photos in, esp. with a group or what have you.Now, I currently live in Poland, in a city of nearly 800K pops. I can use the exact same profile I used in Switzerland and get laid pretty easily here. I actually did that last year, got 3 girls in a week. I could have gotten even more but logistics of vacations with my friends prevented that haha.
So, I strongly recommend you to try Tinder elsewhere. Maybe you could use your vacation to try Tinder in a big city this summer ?
Solid advice. My thoughts up to this point have been "more high quality pics = better profile".maestro wrote: ↑Sun Jun 26, 2022 7:44 pmNow, I have not read the whole thread, so pardon me if I missed something relevant.
I would delete pics 3, 5, and 8. 3&5 just do not add any value additionally, so they are more risk then reward. 8 you look kinda goofy in my opinion. Streamline your profile a little. I personaly have more results now after I deleted a few pics and run on 4 pics only.
Ah fuck, yes, This has been in the back of my mind for some time. I have this idea that pics of me smiling will devalue my overall vibe, in a sense. Trying to follow @Manganiello s advice I read some time back that was something like "You need to look like a total fuckboy".IMO you lack dimension in your profile. You seem too serious. If I were a girl I would think "Is this guy having fun aswell? Does he have friends?" There is just a little bit of warmth and lightheartedness missing.
My reasoning to have it early on has been to screen for girls that are DTF, basically, but I also imagine it might scare some girls off. Gonna bump it back to 4th place and see if there's any changes.But sure, the pics are amazing. I will probably try to recreate the reading photo you dit, it is just fantastic.
Consider putting the shirtless pic a bit more back. It is a little too much too early IMO.
I also am considering swapping it out with another one where my face doesn't look so weird. I have a bunch in the same style but there again, I'm thinking things like "Weird face and great looking body, or better face and not so jacked-looking pose?"
Thanks for the input!
Gonna try out your suggestion and set my location to LA, to where I'll be traveling next week.
Yeah, the activity photos are hard to shoot by myself but I'll be making it a priority going forward. I actually shot some 700 photos of myself on Saturday while I was alone at work. As in, posing behind the mixer, sitting/standing on the stage we've got set up at the moment and such.
stuff like this, any good?:
Figured I wanted a photo of me in my work-environment, but at the same time, in my eyes it's clear that it's staged. Also, I get caught up about looking into the camera or not: if I do, it looks more staged. If I don't, I tend to have my go-to super-serious face and the vibe is more aggressive etc.
