Had tinder 2 years ago, got pretty good amount of matches, even with girls out of my league, I installed it again last month and I'm having no luck, I even went back to older pictures I used before but to no avail, is tinder dying or have I gone from a 6 to a 3/4 in two years


>>25379644
Nice tasche, id probably remove the socialist part, I don't think girls would be interested in someone's political views on tinder

My bio sucks. I think my pics are okay at least but I need serious help for the bio.

>>25379783
Leave out the "and so is driving" part.

Change the first line to "I'm a musician who loves music"

Change Bottom line to "I love 90s shows especially Seinfeld and x files"

The best advice is to not play the game unless you want to become addicted to seeking that elusive match online for it to no go anywhere

>>25379737
I've gotten quite a few people who swiped just to talk to me about politics

>>25379799
a side profile might do you more justice than you think

>>25379900
>side profile

do you mean the description

I've never had one match on Tinder after years of using it. Not one. I can conclude now that I'm definitely too short and too ugly to use the app.


That is all.

Should I use a selfie for my picture or set my phone on a timer and make it look like a friend took a picture of me? I suck at taking pictures of myself so idk what to do

change your fucking bio

>>25380126
>I like long walks on the beach

something tells me it isn't your face but you sound boring as fuck.

I bet if you change your entire bio to this

"I don't kiss at the first date but I'll still eat your ass" you'll get more result.

I updated my tinder. Roast me, plz.

I have yet to make a tinder but am planning. Are shirtless pictures really "douchey"? I feel like if women can get away with purposely showing off cleavage and their ass a guy can at least have a shirtless pic to show off

Use pick 4 as main, but hide their faces. It should focus on you!
Remove first, its not a flattering picture.

Dogs are cool, the 2nd pic is alright - some chicks dig that nerdy stuff.

BIO is good actually, not too long and sparks an interest. But remove the last "and we can have a cool dinner and movie night", save that for the conversation.

Real life is no problem, all I need is an initial swipe as conversations are never a problem for me. Idk I feel like it might have to do with the Seattle Freeze phenomenon (also Orlando had hella matches)

What shall I do?

>>25379644
Get rid of the beard and get clearer skin

Pretty sure a lot of people don't really care about what other place you from ATM

Get rid of the meme reference it's childish

Get the sexual jokes out the window also makes you sound creepy

>>25381414

the first 3 pics shouldn't be selfies

>>25381375
On my phone, but I just made all those changes. I would post, but I'm pretty sure he pic would come up sideways.

>>25381495
Just switched them aroubd

>>25379644
im surprised you get any matches at all with that cringy bio

Start with deleting your account, then go buy a decent amount of blood thinner and take 5x the max recommended dosage

>>25382802
If I was gay I'd give you a shot, I don't have any recommendations besides more photos

>>25382102
It's guaranteeing you an STD at some point in the future

>>25382110
>posting someone's number online
Smooth move, jerk

>>25381414
If I was a negress then I'd give you a shot. Maybe change the first pic or two to pics that someone else took of you

>>25380126
Don't use your official job title. Make your bio more "normie-friendly" since roasties are usually dumb. Your pictures are good, I'd recommend you take off the beanie though

>>25380104
Smile more. Also, your bio is cancer. Fix it

Not an advice question, but is there any way to reset or change my location?

I keep getting profiles from North Carolina because I went there once (I live in Mass)

Jesse,your main pic is the only flattering one desu. Find a better shot of you playing live, like a closeup at a better angle, something pro shot with good lighting, otherwise it looks like an ameteur gig.
Lose the fuckin dank may may
Lose the photo with the chicks. Ur posture makes u look like so awkward

Keep the Mandolin one but add a filter, u look whiteaf.

U need more nicely shot photos with a smile like Ur main that make u look confident and stylish

Maybe lose the McCartney bit
I don't get it and toasties might not either

>>25384319
Your decent looking and look like your active and do stuff.
Maybe crop the photos abit tighter so it focuses on you and not the landscap
Maybe rethink another bio line, but it's on right track, short and sweet

Hi guys, I can't get ONE single match is there something wrong with me or it's just Tinder being weird?

>>25385462
Picture makes you look retarded and you have it twice. Get some pictures of you doing some sort of activity and with some pics with friends

>>25379644
Everything about your bio is childish and you should trash the entire thing. You should also be looking at the camera, especially in your first photo.
>>25379737
You need more photos of just yourself. You should also have a variety of photos of you doing different things instead of just in the club.
>>25379783
Get rid of the first line because it's stupid. Also too repetitive, just say you are a musician and get rid of the "so is driving". Also get rid of the last line because I can assure you no one cares.
>>25380104
Less selfies, more smiling, and ditch the fish picture because it's unoriginal. Also by the looks of it your bio is really bad, trash it. Otherwise you look like you are smart and successful which will draw girls in.
>>25381414
Use the third photo as your main. Ditch the second and third pic. You have a nice smile and you look like you are a lot of fun.

>>25381145

Use a shirtless pic if you can rock it. Do not lead shirtless; it should be the second or third picture. The first picture should show your eyes.

>>25383933

Anything I can improve on? I've gotten 15 matches and almost one date in about 3 weeks of off/on swiping and being fairly selective.

>>25387816
A smooth shaven face in place of that first pic would be better, it kind of looks like you've got a puberty mustache and neckbeard. Also lighting is your absolute best friend, so try to get some good lighting. Maybe remove that strange praying in the colorful border image too.

Your bio seems pretty spot on though.

>>25385425

i would erase 1 or 2 (one selfie is enough). but you seem to be cool, i'd swipe you right if i was gay

Already did. Thanks mate. Anyway I'm not getting matches. I had 2 matches today so far. I don't know what's wrong, I think I'm average looking and in real life I have girls making moves on me (granted, I had this while I was travelling, here in my city all girls seem to hate me).

Photo #3 is no good. Also what does your bio say? Don't give a general invitation to look you up on another app, girls aren't gonna put in the energy to do that when they don't know you.

>>25389414
tinder and online dating in general is mostly about pictures so you should get un-camera shy. The bio is fine though.

arrghhh dammit - why wont anyone give me feedback

Started using tinder, three weeks ago? I got one shitty mirror shot of myself and a fairly boring bio I was being selective with matches only swiping girls I thought were hot and I got heaps of matches at least 3 a day I currently have like 70+ matches.

Suddenly though I'm not getting shit, like the last three or four times I swiped I just spammed the like button and not getting any matches. What is the deal with this? I wasn't messaging many at all would that fuck with how much I'm shown off?

My biggest issue and I'm really curious for any advice on this; I'm matching with pretty girls that I would be happy to date. They come across as intelligent and interesting in their bio's - Problem is I'm fresh out of a long term relationship and I just want to fuck sluts.

Can't Match A Single Slut! Seriously, all these 18-21 year old, club shot, slutty looking hotties are not feeling me at all I literally haven't matched one of these girls. What kind of bio attracts them? Is it like a fidget spinner and tie dye hat deal or more of a dickhead paying for bottle service in a club wearing a suit and some dark shades deal?

I've got a huge cock should I utilise this some how?

Holy fuck I just want to stop fucking my hand my ex was a nympho and I've gone from several times a day to nothing.

>>25388430
What are you trying to attract? looks like you're trying to find a wife if that is the deal then I'd say you're profile is good.

Your pic looks good, I don't know though personally I think the black and white thing is a bit lame, but I've read it works which is why you're doing it I guess so can't really say.

I shouldn't be giving any kind of advice I don't know what the fuck I'm doing but you seemed frustrated and I wanted to help.

>>25382802
So smart photos made the pic with me and Viewtiful Joe my main pic. Is it really that good of a pic? It can't be.

I just started again. Will this work?

Ok guys. The majority of you have acne and face wash does not fix that. You need to improve your diet. More fresh fruits and veggies, go vegan for a week if you're serious about improving. Learn about nutrition.

Next thing, tinder sucks. I am 25/m/San Diego and I have had sex with about sixty people. I only boned one girl off tinder. ONE. I had the app for an entire year and switched my profile up, traveled, ect.... Fuck tinder dude. It's a shit app unless you are willing to dish out $100 for dinner and drinks because that is what tinder whores are into. Don't believe me? Look at their instagram. Care free children. Totally degenerate.

Oh and if you don't have an instagram account they can lurk you miss out on about 50% of those lonely SJW whores.

My best advice is become entirely independent, move off grid, and that is where/when you will find who you are looking for.

>>25390073
Bullshit. I had the app for only two weeks and managed to fuck 3 girls in that time.

How should I go about messaging this girl? What pickup lines should I use etc?

When I matched with her a week ago the line in her bio about being asexual wasn't there, she added it a day or two later, can't tell if it's serious or if it's supposed to be a joke or a deterrent

>>25384022

>>25389625
Yeah tinder keeps track of how much you message people, also possibly how much people respond to you. It starts you off at the top of the stack and then kinda cuts you off if you're not an active user. It's not easy to climb back up, might be worth remaking your account.

Also it's 2017 dawg, there's no such thing as sluts anymore.

>>25389896
this will not work

>>25390928
I dunno what to make of this profile, it's really bad but not bad enough to make me think it's a joke.

>>25391261
First off, you should have some self respect and not message this person.

But if you insist, I think you should go with a boring specific question for your opener like "Hey what are you up to today?" and then she'll go "just school" and if you're lucky she might tag on "hbu?"

I wouldn't think too hard about the opening message with her because she seems actively disinterested, if you try to be funny or creative and it comes off wrong she'll just be like "lol" or something dismissive. You wanna toss her softball messages that she can respond to without thinking much, otherwise she just won't put in the energy to respond.

How long do you guys wait after sending a message before you unmatch them? A day or 2?

>>25393023
whats the point of unmatching?

Not meaning to be an asshole here but is there something up with your eyes? You look cross eyed or asleep in every photo.

Nah. Im native american. Characteristics are slinty eyes and high cheek bones.
Did natural selection rule me out or some shit.

>>25394670
Oh. Well I'm not murrican so I wouldn't know about that really.

The main problem with your photos is that your glasses really hide your eyes and distort them a little, the lighting in practically all of them is really bad and they look blurry and low quality. The only one worth keeping is the one with you and the cat, all the rest need to be changed.

>>25394673
Okay. Thanks for the input. Ill work on gathering some more photos. I dont take pictures of myself often so not all that much selection

Used to get a lot more matches when I used to use Tinder a year ago. Now I get about 0-2 a day.

>>25395272

probably because you have a shit profile. trust me, the girls are there if you're attractive and can market yourself. i used 1 picture, about 25 words for my profile, and got 100 adds in 1 weekend. that was only swiping right on 1 out of every 5 or 10 girls, virtually all of them were hot. and most were dtf within a few msgs.

Can I meet traps on Tinder? Live in a fairly liberal city. Don't really want to use Grindr. Do traps post under female section? Is there a trans/trap/etc option?

>>25395782
You don't know til they got they're dick out, that's why it's a trap. But yeah there's some on tinder listed as female, you might have to look for a while though.

>>25395749
Bro!

>>25394614
>>25394670
It really does look like your eyes are pointing opposite directions in the first photo. And I know people say to wear a suit, but it kinda backfired for you. It looks like a shitty suit and the shirt/tie combo looks like you're going to prom or an NFL broadcaster. Also taking selfies in a minivan really undermines the whole purpose of a suit picture.

>>25395910

How long anon? Is there a trans section? Maybe Tinder isn't the best place

>>25395948
well I'm in Minneapolis, the third gayest city in America and I've seen maybe 4 obvious trans people on tinder in as many years. Maybe they're just good at trappin and I don't notice them, but there are probably better places than tinder to find what you seek.

>>25396014
Literally the second time I've posted it, first time 6 weeks ago. I think you might be the one who pointed out the shitty guitar hero guitar as well - I was at a girl's house.

>>25396019
ha no that wasn't me but I'm glad other people are critiquing background objects. I'm talking about your profile, I told you to not use that picture of you drinking straight baileys with a swollen face, but here it is still on your profile months later

I get a lot of matches, and I have long conversations with people I match with, but I'm never sure how to escalate things without seeming weird or whatever.
Tips?

in spite of your efforts this person is still talking at you so it doesn't really matter what you say

>>25396161
you don't have to escalate things just ask them out after like 5-10 messages

I fixed my bio up, but I don't have any better pics. I think I'm stuck in this predicament until I go out and take some good pics that aren't selfies

i have no idea who you are but fuck it. sup breh.

>>25396287
you don't need multiple pictures if you play the game right. i used 1 picture, it was this stupid shit. and i probably got matched up with 75% of the people i swiped right on.

How much does the bio actually matter? I've tried multiple things, and none really seem to work better than another, including no bio at all.

My bio is supposed to be a joke but it makes me sound like a right prick, any advice?

"6'2

I don't mean to brag but I once won a primary school talent show so basically don't message me unless you're as famous as I am."

Living in Florida, lots of hot girls near me but I hardly ever get matches. A friend said my old bio came off as to dominant so I'm trying this out. Still haven't gotten any matches.
Open to any serious advice.
