Portrait photographer here. I often photograph guys that don't enjoy their photographs taken or don't want to smile or show teeth. Here is what I do when that happens 1. Try looking away from the camera. 2. Have some type of expression like a raised eyebrow, slight squint in your eyes, devilish grin. 3. Chin raised up head tipped slightly. 4 Eyes closed meditative look hand in back pocket. 5. A hand over the chin slightly blocking the mouth, or a hand running through your hair with a slight smile looking away from the camera. What you want to do is look confidant, display positive but open body language and look interesting. The one thing you don't want to do is look stern or too serious. (like the first pic)

Ok, if this is serious, your not smiling in a single photo, all of them are dark and if that's all your profile says then it wont cut it. EVERY single person on tinder is on there for, at least, just a bit of fun.

Im guessing your trying your hand in Magaluf or Andratx? It should be easier for you to meet people in person in those places.

Enjoy Mallorca and don't forget that Palma has a pretty awesome night life too!

Tinder is a female validation machine. Learn real life game. It's better.

"I am desperate" - that's part of your problem, they can sense it.

And yeah smiling wouldn't hurt. Girls want someone who they can have a good time with. You'd be better off with dorky fun pictures of you having a good time rather than the look how cool I am not smiling pictures you have.

In the first pic you look depressed, annoyed, and negative. No one wants to be around someone who won't give them good emotions, at the end of the day that's what interactions are about; making people feel good emotions and "vibes" about you. That pic screams "I'm a drag and no fun to be around" and has a salty vibe. It simply doesn't put good emotions into those who see it. Plus it's just a horrible selfie with bad lighting. T

he next one is generic with no personality whatsoever, and the other one makes you look feminine and desperate for attention.

My advice:

smile or add personality without it.
get a buddy to take your pic in better lighting. Preferably when doing something fun that demonstrates high value where you can get a good face shot
have a pic of you and your buds at the club, with some personality.
spice up your bio with something a little less generic. Like it was said before, everyone is on Tinder to have fun. So put some legitimate things about yourself and a witty remark that will make you stand out from the thousands of other guys these girls see. They have more options than you do and are more selective.
maybe another more masculine pic with your pet.
just stand out, be fun and exciting.

Because you look more like you're going to stab them in that first picture than show them a good time. Like seriously.

First one you need to smile. Also get a better camera. Second one you look a little dorky. Last one would be improved by opening your eyes which seems friendlier and a better camera

Dude, just talk to girls. The challenge of it will build character and it's so much more fun than meeting girls on your phone.

Just keep doing watcha doing, looks pretty legit deserve to get atleast 6 hot bitches.

I'm no expert at Tinder, but in the first picture you come off as very intimidating - a guy who you call when you are about to fight and need of help. Second picture - is more relaxed and better, but Its your average club guy picture, lacks unique touch. Third picture - little bit too famine (if that's the right word) - it looks like you are trying to come of as a bit needy for attention.

Anyway, Tinder is all about the first impressions, maybe look up some guides and advices. In seddit I found an amazing guide(won't point to it, it was a time ago) where you can take interesting pictures, take a friend or something and take few interesting pictures just to boost up you social value, that should work.

Some of the better picture types:

Candid - not smiling
Candid - Smiling
Selfie - Flirting face
Selfie - Smile

Ones that are usually less successful

selfie - no smile

ditch the hoodie, smile with your eyes, sounds crazy just imagine looking at someone who genuinely makes you laugh and do a close mouth smile

then go have a buddy take pictures on a day time adventure, go do manly shit like climb a mountain or jump into the ocean ride bike through the forest
