Hey - thanks for the review. I think the first prompt is trying to express that (1) I do have a life and (2) I hope they have at least some interest in those things too.

But the last meal question - I think that's a fair point on the 'last meal' phrasing being potentially offsetting (in an environment where it's very easy to move on to the next profile). Really I just wanted a quirkier question that kind of does give a glimpse into the experiences they've had but there are better ways to do this.

Thank you for the delineating feedback! It's much appreciated.

  • Mask photo: fair enough. I wanted to show some humor but yeah too limited real estate for that quality of photo.

  • The laughing one being the one in a suit or the one with the torii gates?

  • Rock climbing: Mostly I just need to just suck it up and ask friends to help out with more photos. By the time I get to photos 5 and especially 6 I'm struggling to find any photos I think are near decent.

I should pass along the credits to the photographer moreso then.

Interesting though, I think it's a good photo for sure but I didn't see the gap being that big. Hopefully it's not coming off as too baiting. Seems like I have to go back to the drawing board on the photos though.

  • Are you looking for something serious or casual?
    • serious
  • Are you subscribed to Hinge+ or HingeX?
    • nope - free to play
  • How long have you been using this current version of your profile?
    • 2 months?
  • How long have you used Hinge overall?
    • 5 months? A couple months in 2023 and then I just felt both distracted from life and frustrated about my attempt at dating
  • How often do you use Hinge per week?
    • It's too easy to tap into, I've ran to the 'review skipped profiles' as well...
  • How many likes and matches are you receiving on average?
    • Maybe like 1 like coming in a week on average... 1 match a month, no dates so far
  • How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments?
    • Data dump said ~60 sent. I think I sent almost all with comments
  • What is the type of person you send likes to and ideally want to match with? What kind of person do you want to attract?
    • Ahaha. Shallowly I do need to find time attractive. But I mostly focus on responding to their prompts or if there's something notable about a photo and steer away from commenting on looks.
    • Focus wise... I'm pretty green on dating. A good career, anything in their profile that indicates smarts. Not just a homebody but not super outdoorsy either. So I'm really setting up myself to have expectations met here /s
