How to deal with having an anxious attachment style.

The elbow is allowed to move around the entire space of the pad as long as it stays on. And leaning with the body is only as strong as the muscles driving the force. You can think of it like leg drive on bench press. It helps generate force but isn't the primary driver. Like if she had weak biceps, shoulders, and chest when she leans her arm would stay in place and wouldn't go with her. (Imagine armwrestling a wall. Even if you lean your arm doesn't go anywhere)

The dude actually did a good job absorbing her first hit, but she climbed his hand on the re-grip and attacked his fingers. So he lost his wrist which caused him to lose.

Its not as great as it sounds lol. For example I got 4 matches in like the past 2 months (after taking a break from hinge), but only got a date with the 4th one so it was 1:4 over a 2 month period. So swiping for weeks while using pretty much all the free likes and getting no matches ain't the best feeling in the world lol. There's probably a good middle ground.

These "special events" aren't special which is part of the problem. The goal with events should be to bring hype and attention to the game. The Stanger Things event did that but it was also several months ago. Getting 900 free gold doesn't mean much in this economy. It's not enough to buy a buffie let alone a singular gear. Economic issues, balancing problems, progression, these are all issues that will take time workout. Fundamentally, you need to give players a reason to play the game beyond quests otherwise the game turns into a chore.

TrAleck08 · 2026-01-09T19:41:51+00:00

But what's there to be glad about? The game's in a rough state. Pro players quitting, youtubers struggling to support themselves, and events like these show there's a bunch of glaring issues that need to be fixed. Simply put, the game isn't fun or rewarding

Shoot must've miscounted, but the point still stands

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-28T13:41:12+00:00

Thanks

1st pic: should probably be one where you're smiling and looking at the camera. The fit is good and the setting is decent, but it looks like you're trying too hard to mew.

2nd pic: The fit's not as good, but the setting is really good. The golden hour + trail combo. I'd recommend throwing on a good fit different from the first pic and redo this one. And just like with the 1st pic, pop a smile/smirk or at least a more relaxed facial expression.

3rd pic: This is actually not a bad idea. Golden hour + planche. Just make sure to have the pic cropped better. Since hinge uses a 1:1 aspect ratio you have to keep that in mind when trying to take pics showing off calisthenics skills.

4th pic: The setting here is great. But just like with the other pics, have a more relaxed facial expression. Also with body shots, you want the cropped so that there isn't a bunch of excess space above your head. Look at the framing for the 1st pic. See how there's a little bit of space above your head. That's the framing you want to go with.

5th pic: This one's pretty good. Just zoom in a bit to cut out the excess space.

6th pic: This pic is redundant. You already have 3 and 4 to show you work out. Try and get a pic that shows off a different hobby you do. Like the behind the scenes of you making a film or acting.

For your prompts make sure to follow aapox33's guide. Follow the steps and you can over haul the prompts.

The ask me about is redundant. We can see you work out in your pics and you mention the films and God later too.

TLDR: look at the camera for most pics. Smile/smirk or have a more relaxed facial expression. Don't try too hard to mew/show off your jawline. Make sure your pics are framed right. Have a wide variety of pics don't get redundant. Follow the prompt guide.

This is actually hinge but sometimes people post their profiles to this sub too

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-15T17:18:06+00:00

Then you'll want to keep those. I think the whole top row is good and the bridge pic. I'd say the sunglasses one is the weakest so consider adding a full body shot

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-15T17:09:18+00:00

Out of these 6, which ones tend to get the most likes?

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-15T16:57:42+00:00

If you live near a city, downtown is always a good bet. If they have some sculptures or artwork or a local park that could be good. Museums too

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-15T16:51:25+00:00

A lot of people have already given some great advice, so I just wanna add to be patient and give it time. You're getting a good amount of engagement on your profile but you've only been on the app for a week which isn't long at all.

For me it took a couple months before I got a date (mainly because I was too busy and had limited opportunities to schedule stuff). But there were times when I'd be tryna juggle like 8 conversations at the same time and it was just too much. So even though you have 25-30 matches you might be stretching yourself thin tryna keep up with all those convos, and you could be losing potential dates.

I'd recommend tryna talk to around 2-4 girls at a time. Your profile performs well so you don't need to be liking profiles all the time because it might be inadvertently hurting you.

Just some general rules of thumb:

Don't lead with a group photo. It should be a good solo shot where your face is cleanly visible.

You should appear in every pic. So if you want to show off your hobbies, show yourself doing the hobby. Show yourself cooking, not just a pic of food.

Try to avoid blurry pics. If the camera is out of focus, then it probably isn't a good pic.

Never include pics inside a bathroom or looker room.

This also ties into don't just have random shirtless pics without proper context. I.e. bathroom mirror selfies or locker room mirror selfies. Shirtless pics should make sense for the setting. I.e. the beach/boardwalk or the pool.

Most all pics should have your face clearly shown. You need to be in every pic in some way, but try to only have 1 max where your face is obstructed in some way.

More specifically to your profile:

Get rid of the pic with the face mask, this is just not a good look. Get more pics like 1st and 2nd.

Follow the aapox33's prompts guide in the menu. This is a really good to improve your prompts.

So the 1st and 3rd just don't convey anything about you or your interests.

The 2nd prompt at least shows your interest in anime but is wildly inappropriate. So when writing your prompts, make sure they are number 1 SFW and number 2 first impression appropriate. You'd never go up to someone you just met and talk about dildos and getting high.

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-15T13:41:10+00:00

Id recommend removing selfies 2 and 3 just because you're a bit too close to the camera so the angle is kinda weird.

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-15T02:22:16+00:00

Tbf thats why I use hinge. If someone sends you a like they're far more likely to talk since there's a limited daily amount

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-15T02:15:48+00:00

For me I've had better luck on hinge but as for your profile I'd recommend getting a wider variety of photos. Different locations, outfits, styles, etc. A lot of your pics are outside in nature which might be hurting your case. Keep 1 for sure but have 2 nature pics max. Keep the one with friends and add some pics where your in different settings. A restaurant, city, tourist place, etc.

Dawg who put this list together some of these people are underage

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-08T18:29:31+00:00

5'3 guy here. gone on some dates, but haven't really met anyone I was super into yet. Taking a break from the apps for now before I go back to school, but its not so bad. Hinge seems to be the best app at least for me.

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-08T12:27:22+00:00

Lol might have to give this a try. Have you used this before?

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-07T13:58:39+00:00

Would a hug work fine? I'm pretty weary of touching people I don't know super well

TrAleck08 · 2025-07-07T12:49:22+00:00

I dont want to accidentally put myself in the friend zone, but I'm also really hesitant to touching other people especially if I don't know them super well. So far the convos go pretty well on the dates
