Pictures of me, mostly face/torso only, clothed, suit, T-shirt etc.
I got 2 matches on Tinder (0 on Bumble) in 2 weeks, and both messaged me after I said Hi with the same message "ur numberr" (sic)
Reported both as scam and deleted my accounts yesterday to recreate the profiles from scratch (and rematch and open the opportunity to be matched with again).
This time around I added a message on my profiles, saying only: "Looking to meet interesting and friendly people"
But I changed my pictures to have full body shots, and 2 shirtless pics (one of my back as I was in a river in Bern, and the other one shirtless driving a boat on lake Como in Italy). The locations are not known to anyone, and I don't workout, so I'm not buffed, but I'm lucky I don't gain weight easily.
Since late afternoon yesterday to this morning, so 12 hours, I already have 10 matches on Tinder and 1 on Bumble. And the conversations are flowing so they seem to be real girls...
The thing that struck me was: 90% of girls state that they're "not looking for hookups". Which is ok, but it's very sad when you say "I'm looking for a boyfriend" too, someone should tell them that. Why is it that my profile is getting such attention after I posted more "physical" pictures?
You don't "look" for a long term relationship... boyfriends/girlfriends/spouses happen when 2 people know each other and are comfortable, longing to be together. That happens after some interaction.

i reactivated my tinder two days ago and created a bumble one day ago. i do have one shirtless pic, but its cut off right below my shoulders so you cant see shit, basically just a face pic. over 20 matches on bumble and 10 on tinder. i havent bothered messaging anybody right now because im leaving for germany in a few days.
i have two pics with my dog and ive noticed the really hot chicks i match with that are way out of my league are also dog owners. if you own any pets, use it to your advantage.
also, try to make your bio more unique, because yours is pretty lame right now. if youre extremely good looking, it wont really matter. but for dudes like me who are more average looking, you gotta use the bio/cute pets/whatever other gimmicks to your advantage.
