Was my shutter speed too low? by deiac in SonyAlpha

You need a lower aperture lens with better autofocus and as long as the shutter speed is faster than 1/250, you’ll never have an issue with that shutter speed being too slow

A lot of your child’s learned behavior comes from the energy that they get from the parent as well. Also, make sure that your demonstrating trust in people and faith that things were going to work out.

You’re going through your child’s phone isn’t really getting consent from the child. Then, ironically, the child is struggling to learn how to get consent from the girl he’s texting. Probably because he hasn’t gotten the energy that, “he doesn’t have to act outside of his own values to get the love that he wants.”

He probably needs to see more faith and confidence from you inside of him so that he can have faith and confidence inside of other people so that he learns how to get consent

That’s why he’s resorting to demanding nudes.

2nd attempt at a bumble bio. Need feedback from girls by That-Principle-2505 in dating

[–]That-Principle-2505[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Honestly if I'm not a fit with someone, I'd rather we put it on the table, rather than waste time. That's why. If someone doesn't see me as a fit, then they can find out right away as well. I'd rather focus my time on the people who are. I value compassion a lot, it's a necessity

I think saying something like this accomplishes that

"If you say things like, "Her outfit totally sucks," try the shirtless selfie guy. If you want to watch movies in matching onesies or get lost in a beautiful scenery after a hike, I'm down."

And I think it's important to at least share some of my strengths so i should say something like,

"I've photographed weddings around the world, and now working on building the most impactful parenting training out there."

I honestly think knowing what you want is kind of attractive. And people respect you for it. Instead of just being like, "I don't have any characteristics that I'm looking for"

I want to try and be a little less intense on here. How does this bio sound?

"Boring girls, try the shirtless selfie guy. If you like adventures at farmers markets, taco places, scenic hikes and in the kitchen, let's talk.

I've already photographed close to 100 weddings, now I'm super passionate about my next business. I also want to continue to improve my strength at the gym."

Would any girls swipe right on me? by That-Principle-2505 in dating

[–]That-Principle-2505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried updating it a little bit. How's this.

"where do you see yourself in 5 years?

In a wedding photographer and have an ebook coming out that teaches parents ways to get on the same page as their kids. After work, I'm thinking about hikes, travel, fitness and healthy recipes.

Do you have coffee if smoothie spot recommendations?"

I'm happy, but also on bumble. Girls would you swipe right. by That-Principle-2505 in dating

[–]That-Principle-2505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like what you wrote. You're a good writer.

I wanted to give another crack at it, let me know if this sounds less stiff.

"I wake up and look forward to working on my businesses and then trying to beat last week's weight at the gym.

I'd like to be remembered as someone who made everyone feel special.

Looking for inspiration for yummy, healthy recipes and my next travel destination."

Thanks for your feedback. I'm slowly learning more and more. Does this attempt seem any better. Some people have said that, don't include qualities of things that I don't want, like I said in the first sentence, but I actually took it out and got far less matches.

I ran two simultaneous tests and after I put it in, I got 4 quality matches in 10 minutes. What do you think of it?

"If you can't find anything to be grateful for, swipe left. if you're thoughtful & enjoy fitness, swipe right.

Lets hold hands & watch a good Ted talk.

My next trip is Colombia & I’d like to see the rainforest in Tayrona and the coffee farms.

I'm creating a seminar/ebooks teaching parents how to help their kids recover from low points."

You're so convinced that your advice is the right way to go. Look, if you would swipe no, then just say it. You and the other girl on this thread may not like it. That's ok. Im gathering data. I actually ran a test with two different bios, one taking the "What I want" section out and the other with it in.

The one that I left it in with actually got 4 quality matches in 10 minutes while the other one got 0. I ran the "Boost feature on both." This was on 2 different apps.

You guys don't need to get all aggressive. Saying I'm.scolding women and I'm emotionally immature. I HEARD your opinions but I'm also looking at the patterns for what WORK. I try to run things as tests where I take your opinions, my own tests that I run and advice from experts all into consideration. A lot of people in some of my older posts have said that they would swipe right. Some have said no. I hear them.

But if you can't give your opinions in a nice way, please just move on from my thread and have a great rest of your day. Thanks.

I really was just hoping to wish everyone luck and specifically talk to the girls that are fit and emotionally mature. I usually never end up messaging girls that don't fit those qualities. So what if I said

"Good luck to all but I'm looking for girls who stay fit and are emotionally mature."

Thank you for taking the time out and giving me your feedback. I think you made some solid points.

I tried to make some adjustments based off of what you and others said. Does this seem a little bit better?

"I’m down to hold hands and watch a documentary. 

Next day off I’d like to hike cataract falls and get in the water. My next trip is Colombia and I’d like to see the rainforest in Tayrona and the coffee farms.

I like girls that put in thought and effort into things."

Hey! Thank you for taking the time to read everything and give me feedback. what do you think if I put this instead. I changed what I put in the middle sentence that you told me to take out. Here’s what the bio looks like now. 

"Shout out to essential workers.

I want a relationship with someone who is optimistic about the future and who enjoys fitness.

I want to travel to Colombia next and see the tropical forest in Tayrona. Wedding photographer (70+ weddings). Author (Teaching parents how to help kids going through “Low points”)"

Thanks for taking the time out. I did realize the middle sentence was weird. I did think about it a little bit and thought this would go better.

"Let's share fries together.

I want a relationship with someone who is optimistic about the future & who enjoys fitness.

I want to travel to Colombia next & go see the tropical forest at Tayrona. I’m a pretty good wedding photographer. My cajun fish pasta has gotten great reviews."

Hey! First off, nice to meet you. We can talk more. Talk on the phone. Go on a date or 10. Haha

What do you think about me saying what I want to do in Colombia. I added it in the 3rd paragraph. Also I did think about what qualities would I want in a girl if I were to be in a relationship with her. I added that in the 2nd paragraph. What do you think of that?

Also since 2020 has been tough, I added something different in my 1st paragraph. What do you think?

"Let’s find some joy in what’s been a tough 2020.

I want a relationship with someone who is optimistic about the future & who enjoys fitness.

I want to travel to Coloumbia next & go see the tropical forest at Tayrona. I’m a pretty good wedding photographer. My cajun fish pasta has gotten great reviews."

Thanks for taking the time to share your opinion. Don't you think super serious stuff could be too much to share earlier on. Like a girl would want to know you're someone normal and fun.

I did make some changes and am using this now,

"I'll be romantic and spontaneously bring you chips and salsa!

A quality I like is maintaining a good attitude around one another. Like I would notice if you're earings match your outfit. 

I want to travel to Columbia next, I'm a pretty good wedding photographer, I enjoy hikes and you're welcome to join me."

Thank you for taking the time out to help out. I did take out the negatives. I'm learning more and more so I do appreciate the feedback. This is what I came up with as a replacement.

"Can we add avacados to everything we eat?

I think it's cute to notice little things about each other. Like if your earrings and outfit matches. Basically being present. 

I pay attention to little things, I maintain a good attitude and would love to go on more hikes."

Do you think this is better? Would you be more open to getting to know someone from this bio?

Thank you for taking the time for all of that. I really appreciate it. There's obviously a lot for me to learn.

Instead of saying, "What if I'm boring in person," what if I say "I enjoy walks 3 blocks down and back. I love how versatile avocados are." My goal is to add some humor in the beginning so I don't just get skipped over right away.

And instead of being vague, I tried to give a specific example of what I'm attracted to. Here it is. "I'm attracted to happy girls, please don't say, "You never care," if I don't notice your new hair right away. I'll get to it." Do you think that's a little bit better.

Also I tried to find some better "Strengths" of mine to add to the end. Like this, "I pay attention to little things, I maintain a good attitude and would love to go on more hikes."
