okay,… i don’t have a personal tinder & don’t plan on making one (so if you see my picture, it’s not actually me haha), but i am intrigued by it. since i have talked to a million people about it, and seen some horror stories, i thought i’d write a blog on do’s and don’t’s. i did feel that giving tinder advice with no first hand experience wouldn’t be the best idea, so i caved and created an account with a black photo.
it appears that a lot of people have potential… but just aren’t quite there. after asking you guys for your turn offs, and noticing some for myself, here are some do’s and don’t’s to avoid the left swipe.
DONT:
1.DON’T post pics smoking (weed or cigs). we get that you’re “420 friendly,” but there’s no reason to advertise it. it might limit your dating pool.
2.DON’T use only group pics. how are we supposed to know which one is you?
3.DON’T use snapchat filters on your pictures. i hope you don’t actually have dog ears in real life.
4.DON’T be overly confident or stuck up. are you really the “guy of my dreams?”
5.DON’T ask for money for your snapchat. just don’t.
6.DON’T post only one picture. if you do, odds are people will believe you’re a catfish.
7.DON’T use generalized statements. having “you’re the one for me” in your bio does NOT make me feel special.
8.DON’T bring up politics. this is good advice on tinder and irl!
9.DON’T post shirtless pics or dozens of pics at parties.
10.DON’T flex how much u work out. no one cares.
to make the match…
DO:
1.DO post pictures smiling. lets see those pearly whites.
2.DO be honest. i mean if you are looking for a hookup, say it.
3.DO have a sense of humor. if you can make me laugh, its an automatic super like for me.
all of these are just suggestions to improve your odds of getting a swipe right. if you get anything from this, its that you really should put your true self out there & not try and guess what girls are looking for. you never know, you could meet the girl for you in a world of hookups. so, swiper keep swiping!
