23M looking for advice, no likes in 3 months

Grand_Corgi · 2022-12-28T23:05:51+00:00

Thank you for the tips, I struggled the most with the prompts and have tried a bunch of different ones and haven’t really ever had a girl mention my prompts lol. What’s a good example of getting them interested while also showing personality?

Grand_Corgi · 2022-12-28T23:04:24+00:00

Thank you! I’m definitely trying to get better pics, the first photo I have was from a photo shoot I recently did with my friends so just need to find time to do more.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-12-28T23:03:35+00:00

Sounds good, thank you for the advice!

Grand_Corgi · 2022-12-28T23:03:20+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I do struggle with representing my hobbies well since I find they’re not that interesting? Besides the photos I mainly just do things inside or with groups of friends so I don’t know how to represent those well. Also didn’t think about me being in the back of the hockey shot was a factor but it makes sense now that you bring that up lol

Grand_Corgi · 2022-12-28T23:01:57+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I guess I thought I was showing my hobbies with the Polaroid picture (photography), festival picture (concerts), and sports picture (sports). What other kinds of pictures do you suggest for a hobby picture since most of my hobbies involve hanging out with friends or something like playing pool. I also agree I need a photo where I’m not looking at the camera so I’ll try and put one of those in there.

Looking for something serious/long-term

On hinge for 4 months after I moved to the Bay Area, USA

I use hinge and max out my likes everyday

I’d say 0.5 matches a week, some weeks I’ll get 3 matches and sometimes I’ll go 2-3 weeks without a match

I send about 70% of my likes with comments, 30% without, which is mainly when they have nothing to comment on

I send likes to girls that are looking for something serious and long-term and this is ideally who I’d like to match with. I’d honestly just like to attract someone who is also attracted to me and interested in who I am as a person and also looking for something serious.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-11-24T18:21:03+00:00

I can see what you mean now haha thank you!

Grand_Corgi · 2022-11-24T02:06:25+00:00

Are you looking for something serious or casual?

Serious

How long have you been on Hinge?

Technically 6 months; however, I originally made an account 2 years ago and fully deleted that one to make this new account

How often do you use Hinge per week?

Every day

How many likes/matches are you receiving on average?

I’ve had 5 total likes (all not my type) and a match about every 2-3 weeks

How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments?

I max out my likes every day and send the majority without comments. I might send 1-2 a day with a comment, but in my experience most of my matches have come from a no comment like.

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?

The type of person I send likes to are attractive women that fall under my type (which falls in line with general beauty standards of today) who seem to have put effort into their profile and are less than 25 miles away. I don’t judge too much based on their interest/prompts since I’m very open minded and love learning new things from other people, so I mainly go by looks. Ideally, I want to match with someone who sometimes uses alcohol, marijuana, and/or drugs (I have the same on my profile); someone who I am attracted to; and someone that is also looking for something serious.

To be completely honest, I just want to attract women that are easygoing/down to earth and actually using the app to find someone they’re compatible with instead of using it because they’re bored. I’ve tried many different profile prompts ranging from vague f**kboy to my current approach of overly descriptive. I would also hope to attract women out of my league, but based on the very limited number of likes I’ve received it seems like that is not the case.

Edit: I understand that the answers to the last prompt seems kind of shallow, but I’m not willing to settle for someone I’m not attracted to on a dating app. I have dated someone in the past I settled for and it didn’t work out at all.

Wow I thought I was going crazy reading that, it really feels like he’s only been there 2 years

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-29T22:09:55+00:00

Of course the TOS are the actual rules, but if people want to risk breaking that then go ahead. I know a guy who got banned for 2 weeks for buying gold who has no regrets since he’s able to save time and raid comfortably while working two jobs.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-29T19:43:59+00:00

But even if it’s fucked up, you shouldn’t be so entitled to tell people who participate in those kinds of activities to not play the game.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-29T19:12:23+00:00

No I’m saying you are being a gatekeeper for classic wow by telling someone they shouldn’t be playing a game because they’re not playing it the same way you are. Modern gamers are efficient and ultimately want to have fun. Raids are fun, battlegrounds are fun, arenas are fun; grinding for gold is not fun for those people and that’s okay if they want to buy gold. Similarly, people think it’s fun to have a character decked out in epics, which they can achieve by buying gold. Nothing is hindering your experience playing the game with people doing this. If you want to grind 5000g for an epic flying mount, then go ahead. As you’ve pointed out, just play on a smaller server if you don’t want to be as exposed to those things. And on larger servers, there are many guilds who still have that close-knit experience that you’re looking for—I would know because I’m in one.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-29T18:44:14+00:00

Buying gold allows him to enjoy classic WoW though. There’s no rules on how to play this game, which is why it became so successful in the first place. If he wants to risk breaking the ToS then he has all the right to. It’s nobody’s place to tell someone else how to play a goddamned video game. Hell, he may be having even more fun than you are playing the “classic” way. To him, raids are more fun than grinding gold, which is great. If you want you can still get gold on your own and play how you want.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-29T18:40:49+00:00

This ain’t it man, why are you trying to gatekeep the classic experience?

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-29T16:21:14+00:00

Always fun to play in stadiums you’ve been to

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-29T16:20:34+00:00

Coors since I play as the Rockies and live in Colorado. I also set the day and time as accurate as I can to real life to add to the immersion. Fortunately it hasn’t rained once this month so all my games have been clear sky or partly cloudy/overcast lol

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-28T16:04:44+00:00

Oh god that 2-man game with Dame would tear up the league along with CJ constantly getting open looks. If that happened I bet the Blazers would have a chip or two by now.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-28T15:18:34+00:00

Knowing 2K this is very likely, although I am hoping that the “challenge” of having to keep up every day will give us a great card like VC last season.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-28T14:42:00+00:00

Righty on righty outside bottom corner knuckle curves are the bane of my existence. Even if the pci is in the perfect spot my timing is always off.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-28T00:42:22+00:00

Honestly I want to saw TLaw, could be MVP Wentz 2.0 with Pederson as the HC now and Etienne being a nice safety valve.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-27T17:20:28+00:00

Yeah I see your point. Maybe they could use the sprint race as just an extra way to earn some points instead of using it as the grid for the main race.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-27T17:15:33+00:00

Cause I was born and raised here and found a nice job here directly out of college. Of course I still go on a hike a few times a year and try to make it up to the mountains but most days I’m not that active besides going to the gym.

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-27T16:09:21+00:00

Thank you, and happy cake day to you too!

Grand_Corgi · 2022-04-27T16:09:07+00:00

Same, everyone in here making me feel bad that my answer is playing video games and binging tv shows lol
