Tristan's Dating Log

[dashedhopes]

Sup boys I'm back.

Just got out of a 3 year relationship, finally...

So yea, I'm pretty rusty with this shit and could use some help.

I want to get back to where I was with online dating so I don't need to rely as much on day/night game since those are pretty time consuming.

Main focuses are Tinder/Bumble/Facebook Dating (actually not that bad of an app and I got most of my matches there surprisingly)

I'll be honest, I thought I would do a lot better with online dating since I'm using the same pictures I did to get 19 lays in one year. But that's not the case so I have to switch things up. Right now I'm not nearly lean enough to take new pictures but will be early next year.

The other secondary focus is trying to build some sort of social circle where I can snag girls as well. I have friend that's been inviting me to parties and hopefully that translates to some lays and meet more and more girls as time goes on. Going to invest some time into this on weekends. One of my friends has been doing this and tinder supplements this for him and he supposedly gets laid quite a bit.

Lastly, I met with @Radical, very chill dude. We'll probably go out to some bars and malls and shit to get our confidences back up to where they were since we're both a bit rusty.

Here are my pics if you want to rip em apart, they're pretty dated right now and I understand I need a far better main picture. I might start to get that now if I can and see how they turn out.

Bio is very vanilla cause I'm not trying to screen at the moment: "I sometimes put my blanket in the drier to make it warm"

Hey Man, great to have you here and congrats for taking back control over your dating life.

What I suspect is happening is that more and more guy getting jacked on the app make you less valuable in the market.
To be honest, these photos paint you as a "Gym Bro"
Nothing else than big arms and that's it (aside the small turtle, that is sweet and one like that is good to have, it's almost as good as a puppy dog one) There is no "lifestyle" (the skiing one could actually just be jacked dudes and it's not easy to see you clearly)
Also, please don't get triggered - in the majority of photos the angle makes you look short, if you aren't naturally that tall, consider always the angle and the "background items" comparison.
Consider adding "layers" of personality and a variety of "backgrounds" - what story could tell these photos about you?

[dashedhopes]

Those are good points man.

I’ll focus on that in future photos and focus less on gym shit because I think you’re right. Girls care less about hooking up with jacked dudes it seems. Times are a changing.

So focus on making myself look taller.
Show more of who I am. Less photos of me where the muscle is shown off. Create a story - this part I’m confused on, how would I do that exactly.. what would this look like?

Do you think the turtle one is usable?

[AskTheDom]

Well, this is a good training for you also for cold approach - what story tells your mind by looking at your photos?
(ASSUMPTIONS) To me is that you have an elite body - but on another side tells me you are a gym bro that spends so much time at the gym and all the negative stereotypes with that ( gym selfies more than a woman, vanity, fragile ego) etc

[Crisis_Overcomer]

No feedback to give since I dislike apps. I just want to say it's good to see you're alive man.

[MakingAComeback]

Eyyyyyyyy

Welcome back man. I remember your log from when I first joined, and I am subbed to your YouTube so I've seen your updates. I've seen you online several times and was wondering what is big man upto.

As ever, Master Radical's law rings true: self improvement is cycles, guys enter into LTRs, and inevitably come back to the hustle.

Reminds me of something The Dom once told me:

"You will ALWAYS have to work hard"

That is the truth of life. The truth about success.

Welcome back man. If you log, I'll read.

[Olafsmash]

Welcome back bro

[Radical]

Was great meeting you man.

Yeah with you out of the LTR and me shaking off this 6 month monk mode stint we will drag our way back to where we were before

1 killer new main pic in a great winter outfit will do you fine

Got shots of you playing rugby or kickboxing?

Either would add some variety in like a 3rd spot picture

[dashedhopes]

Adding some more here for options.

Thanks for all the kind words my guys.

I haven't stopped working hard and lots but neglected myself for sure.

These are pretty dog shit though idk.

I'm going to need to take a ton more photos.

Maybe I should just say fuck this bulk and get shredded.

Ok there is some meat to play with here
Defo the rugby and paddle boarding and the baby would add a lot to you, chicks over 26 would absolutely get wet seeing you as you manage the baby

[dashedhopes]

Which of the Rugby ones do you think is better?

Long hair grizzly tristan or short clean cut tristan lol

[AskTheDom]

the clean cut because you are at the center of the team with team mates looking at you while you smile, making it look like the leader of big strong men, a mega high value demonstration

[dashedhopes]

Okay I’m going to try to dig for the originals of those photos and get them posted and probably restart tinder since I’m going dry at the moment.

I finally have a date with a girl for Saturday with a cute Asian from Facebook dating of all places. Btw, Facebook dating is definitely worth it. I get the most matches on there for some odd reason but bit of an older crowd for sure.

Last night I was such a bitch. I was walking home sweaty as fuck just thinking about life and as I’m walking close to my apartment this super hot blonde walks by, locks eye contact and smiles at me and I just walked by like a Pussy. I need to get laid and bring my confidence up for sure. Should just be a hair trigger approach and boom that could’ve been a number or even a pull to my apartment lol.

With the Asian girl I’m definitely going to pull the come back to my hot tub. I think that’s a good way to bring a girl back for sure since I’ve never had a hot tub before while dating this girl also mentioned she’s just being casual on dating so I think I have a good chance at a lay if the date goes well.

Wish me luck kings, first date since going single.

Tbh I don't like any of the ones you're currently using.

My fav pics are the cat + Santa Cruz shirt (shows some trendy fashion knowledge); the rugby one where you're carrying the ball (more of an epic action shot than the other); the pool pic; skiing; waterfall; Polo dress shirt (not necessarily in that order).

Fuck. Now I have altering opinions I guess I’ll need to test both sets
