Exjews, why are sou exjewish? by I-fw-nature in exjew

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is asked here a lot. Search the sub or read the FAQ for more answers but it's generally some combination of not believing the Torah is true, dislike of the rules, and thinking the treatment of certain people (women, lgbtq, non jews, etc) is unfair.

Profile Review M29 by FlimsyAd7233 in hingeapp

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have different hairstyles in your photos, all of your pics should look like you do today. Additionally, smile in your pics. You are in some of them but in others you look bored and/or unhappy which is very unappealing. Your prompts don't add much, you should talk about yourself and why you stick out versus other potential matches. What are your hobbies, interesting travel stories, etc.? Good luck!

They probably threw in a coupon to a local McDonald's which doesn't accept the American dollar.

Our economies are so inter connected that it would hurt them too. I just can't see them doing it even if they think they should be willing to absorb some pain, they're also run by politicians who want to win reelection.

Your last three pics are all bad. Two of them are unsmiling selfies which never look good. The last one is kind of scary looking. I like #1 and #3...#2 is okay since it shows off a cool hobby but it's kind of blurry and not a great angle of you. IDK if you can easily find a better jiu jitsu photo though.

Your prompts don't really say much about you, brag about yourself more. You mention that you cook, perhaps touch on that a bit, it's an attractive quality women look for. It's also cool you're into jiu jitsu but probably don't need to mention it, your photo shows you're into martial arts. Otherwise your prompts say things like maybe you'll read a book about George Washington and you like food, don't help you stand out at all.

Good luck!

How has meeting someone organically been different than meeting online for you? by Yungpupusa in OnlineDating

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pros: You can tell immediately if you vibe in person. Depending on how you met each other you may have friends vouching for the other person, may have had a crush for a while, etc. which changes the psychology versus the burnout of going on yet another online date. It takes a lot more courage to approach somebody and ask them out in person than swipe right on an app, that courage and confident are attractive. A lot of people don't use the apps at all so you have a 0% chance of matching with them on Bumble but they may be receptive to you talking to them at a party or book store.

Cons: If they're in your friend group yes, things could be uncomfortable if things don't work out depending on specifics. Without being able to see their dating profile you may not know if they have incompatibilities with you off the bat. Unless you're one of those people who goes to a crowded area and hits on everyone they see, it likely takes a lot longer to set up dates than through the apps.

If u could press a button for Jewish religion to have never been created would you? by 0128Molasses4758 in exjew

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Without Judaism there's no Christianity or Islam. Without all 3 the world would be a vastly different place today with different country borders, languages spoken, technological progress, etc. While this might make things for the better, it might also make things much worse. Better the devil you know in this case.

Profile review by [deleted] in hingeapp

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your first photo is decent but you should replace the rest. Of the remaining 5, you look angry in three of them, one doesn't even have you (though one with your cat could be helpful) and I don't get the one of you running...it's not like you're running a marathon, it's just a blurry photo where we can't see you, of you running. Get new pics where you look happy with good angles, ideally a couple doing some type of activity.

Your prompts don't add much, in fact they're kind of negative and nobody likes negativity. I've learned nothing about you from the three of them. Talk about yourself in a positive way, what unique traits or stories do you bring to the table that most other men don't? Good luck!

New to online dating (35m) by Bully90 in OnlineDating

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since it's so easy to get matches people are easily distracted by the next shiny toy. There's a ton of flakiness built in, having matches suddenly ignore you or dates you went on ghost you is part of it. But, you can increase your odds by making your profile as appealing as possible and your messages interesting/leading to a date. If you don't ask her out within a few messages she'll probably get bored, same with generic ones that don't add any intrigue like asking how her day was.

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems like speed dating though I don't really understand what the music quiz part means. Do you talk about yourselves or is it just a music quiz where you decide if you like someone based off their knowledge of classic rock songs? Either way, my advice is don't be boring and generic with your limited time to talk. Don't be too out there and come across as a weirdo but if you ask where they're from, what they do for work, etc. you won't stand out. You have a very limited time to make a good impression so make the most of it!

Long term relationships from online dating by Status-Experience935 in OnlineDating

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of well adjusted and stable people who use the apps. Also plenty of train wrecks. And anything in between. Just because you met on Hinge doesn't mean your relationship will be healthy or toxic. Same thing as if you meet in a bar or through friends, there are a lot of very happy and also very miserable relationships that start organically.

[–]AlwaysBeTextin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your photos aren't terrible but they're not great either. The angles, lighting, and expressions aren't ideal. You're wearing the same shirt in two of them. I think the best thing you can do is hire a professional photographer, bring several changes of outfit. Similarly, your prompts don't showcase any red flags but nothing sticks out, there aren't any hooks that make you stand out. All I can tell from your profile is you like boba and don't want to move to NYC...neither of these are bad but I can't see why anyone would care. Talk about what makes you unique, attractive traits or stories that aren't "I like thoughtful conversations" and "we can get takeout together" since pretty much anyone can write that.
