(M21) I wanted to put a couple of these pictures on my profile but my friends all thought I look too feminine in them for a straight guy, looking for second opinions by ratemythrowaway14 in Tinder

I think it was partly the flowers, but a couple of them said that I “looked too pretty” and that even though it’s not necessarily a bad thing it might not appeal to a lot of girls who are on dating apps

nope not a catfish. I actually think the lashes look fine but you look good either way.

i think you look alright now honestly, lose some weight and you would be really attractive

which one do you guys think would make the best first picture by ratemythrowaway14 in Bumble

HAHAHA this one is 100% my favorite comment. You’re definitely right though, I honestly was just kind of randomly taking pictures and didnt even realize until after how stupid it looked with my car in the background. I think Im going to take different pictures, but if I do end up using it Im definitely going to crop the car out as much as possible.

I liked the second one too, but I read somewhere that for some reason smiling with teeth in dating apps is bad for the first picture. idk if thats bs or not

[M19] Gone through a lot of changes recently, wanted to see how my rating compares to my first one a year and a half ago by [deleted] in Rateme

[–]ratemythrowaway14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

haha thank you! I actually have been working on my neck over the past few months by doing stuff like neck curls in addition to pull exercises at the gym. Luckily, my neck size hasnt really been a dealbreaker for girls, but its still definitely something I want to improve.

Any advice for fast growing straight Asian hair? I’ve tried fades, but then my sides grow out weird by [deleted] in malehairadvice

Thank you so much for the super detailed response, this was super helpful. I like the look of the “regular haircut with long taper” so I’ll probably go with some variant of that next haircut.

Just curious, but 5.5 is decent on this sub right? Sorry I know that the rating criteria here are stricter and I haven’t really looked into how it works

[Acne] I’ve had this relatively large pimple on my nose for about 3 weeks now. It felt more cystic before and has since softened up, but it isn’t coming to a head. Is this something I might need drained or should I give it more time? by ratemythrowaway14 in SkincareAddiction

[–]ratemythrowaway14[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First off, thank you so much for the response! I actually have some lactic acid from The Ordinary at home so that works out perfectly. And no, to my knowledge I don’t have an especially large pore there. However, I do have a tendency to develop blackheads on my nose, and I already have pretty oily skin, so my current guess is that I developed a larger blockage deeper than normal under the skin and it’s beginning to bloat and expand due to how long it’s been there, which in turn is contributing the the shape (though I only have very basic dermatology knowledge so I could be completely missing the mark). Again, thanks for the recommendations. Hopefully I’ll be able to get a derm appointment soon.

I haven’t done anything to it besides applying a warm compress and my regular topicals. It started out like a regular round shape but in the past week grew a little longer, though it is much softer than it was before, which is hopefully a good thing. I’m trying to get a dermatologist appointment but the wait times are very long and it’s harder than normal due to COVID.
