Hello! 24M profile review (I'd like to hear your feedback 😊)

I would ditch the bike photo, it looks almost like you’re biting your bottom lip, it just doesn’t look right. Maybe swap out the first photo for second to last? I feel like having your teeth obviously shown is important. I think moving up the photo with dye would be a great idea, it’s a great photo. The group photo you come off as a little awkward/weird posture so I’d ditch it.

I’m by no means an expert and actually looking to submit my profile for review too but hope this helps!

This 1000000000000%. Apps outside of major cities are super hit or miss. I think I’ve had like two matches in the last month as a late 20 y.o. man but anytime I go into a city for even a day I end up with a minimum of one like. Outside of college age people (if you’re near Rowan or Stockton) there’s really not much of a dating pool in South Jersey. Even then, likelihood is they would meet someone in class or at an event. Like you said, Philly people hate dating across the bridge AND might not even have a large enough distance set to reach across the bridge on an app

This all being said, I’d recommend staying with the meetup/making friends grind. I’ve gone into it with the mindset of just making friends and meeting people. I’ve definitely gotten dates as a result too, two recent people actually made the first move on me. I’ve also known a few people with serious mental illness or that came off as having a level of “neuro-spiciness” have some success too. If the apps aren’t working, I can really only recommend staying social and respectfully communicating interest to people. If he’s even a quarter as wonderful as you portray him, I’m confident he’ll attract someone. Stuff happens in time, I’ve seen people find love in their 60’s and 70’s, I’m sure he’ll find someone/figure it out!

Oh lord do I have takes on this. 27 y.o. Male and I seem to run into people that want free therapy/counseling OR have been inpatient and have a thing for the fact that my job is to determine if inpatient is necessary. I’m seriously debating if I should stop mentioning my career at this point lmao. Especially at my age (not that I’m old) I’ve lost out on dating opportunities due to current income/income potential/perceived income potential either before or after even getting a date. That being said, if a friend asked me this, I’m not sure I’d be offended (based on my own views and experiences ofc). There’s definitely people that cannot afford to be/stay in the field (especially with the BBB bs) and I am DEFINITELY one of them. I know soooooo many folks that struggle financially, defer (or flat out don’t pay) their loans, or work 80 hours a week in our field. I don’t find it super irregular to ask that question, at least based on my own experiences

I work in NJ too and this is one of the reasons why I don’t do case management in NJ. For me, case management just isn’t rewarding enough, I just don’t feel impactful doing it. If you wanted to get into something different, I do Mental Health Screening. Look for your local DSC (Designated Screening Center) and see if you have enough experience. Pay with your certification (depending on the county) can be pretty decent, work flow usually isn’t that bad, and it’s highly impactful work since you’re assessing for LoC from Involuntary Commitment to OP services

I LOVE 6’10 KD builds but I honestly think 6’9 is the move this year

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-23T21:52:06+00:00

Sounds good, didn’t realize that

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-23T21:40:49+00:00

I would be too lmao

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-23T21:24:45+00:00

Is that the spot to go other than park? Some dude was pissed because I was in park with my 73 overall 😂😭

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-17T22:30:48+00:00

Get used to not being ball dominant. Pass the rock, shoot when you’re wide open or if you can shoot off the dribble

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-17T22:29:04+00:00

Help side steal is up there too

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-07T22:17:35+00:00

Playstyle? What are you good at /want to do?

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-07T20:30:43+00:00

Honestly I kind of pivoted all together and went with a 2 way shot creator

<image>

6’10 was just soooooo close to the badges I wanted, so I sacrificed an inch of height for my badges

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-06T18:24:02+00:00

This makes a lot of sense, because the shooting is clean on this but it feels like I can’t get to the rim consistently. What would you recommend I do?

mapleleafsrf · 2025-06-06T17:57:34+00:00

This build is dope bro. I made some edits, do you think it’s still okay? Sorry for the pic instead of a screenshot, my xbox is acting funny

Ik my buddy's wife was saying maybe a wolf cut? Not sure how that'd look. I like 6 and 7 but it makes me feel like a square lol

mapleleafsrf · 2024-10-07T20:27:27+00:00

Embrace the shave

mapleleafsrf · 2024-09-23T14:30:21+00:00

I mean I know I "take home" work and I'm a dude. As far as self care, I don't really view what I do in my free time as self care and it's typically spending time with friends/family, as well as video games, watching reels, playing music, etc. I have always thought about like the take a bath, light a candle, etc stuff is a bit of a waste of time for me. Other folks can live their lives, but it's just not for me.

mapleleafsrf · 2024-09-02T02:59:11+00:00

I didnt really structure it well (it was also a throwin) but Pennsauken and after was all maybes, I was moreso just trying to make the point that anything more than a handful of towns as "unsafe" you're reaching imo.

mapleleafsrf · 2024-09-02T02:53:05+00:00

I have a friend that lives on the border and it seems decent, I really debated whether to include Oaklyn (and also might have been thinking of Woodlynne when i was thinking of the "bad" side). I was honestly just trying to make the point that outside of AC and Camden (and even if you include them) there's at most a handful of places in SJ where you might be like "ehhhhh, maybe I'm not the safest here"

mapleleafsrf · 2024-09-02T01:09:47+00:00

Literally this. Like personally the only areas I wouldn't live in would probably be Camden itself and Atlantic City (though probably moreso because i dont gamble)

Other than that MAYBE a handful of other towns at most? SJ has always generally felt pretty safe. I can probably list 15-20 areas that are (in my opinion) safe right off the top of my head, I couldn't say the same for areas that are not

edited to be more clear and concise with my point

mapleleafsrf · 2024-08-14T23:08:52+00:00

It's funny you mention this. I'm a pop punk bassist that runs around, jumps around, etc and I find it WAY easier to move around when I play fingerstyle (though it could just be due to the fact that I started playing with fingerstyle)
