What the hell, Tinder

Surely I'm doing something wrong?

No...this is just what tinder is.

Women who are 8 and above match with literally every guy so they are super selective about who they like and tend not to swipe nearly as much as other users.

Just imagine if every single swipe was a match (who would likely message you) how picky you'd be and how many fewer swipes/matches you'd need to get as many dates as you want.

Ever think you're only a 6?

We all think we're slightly (or maybe highly) above average. There's some study that says like 80-something percent of people think that they would be a 6 or higher on the 1 to 10 scale. Does that math add up?

I'm not trying to be a dick, but other than getting 'better' photos, the only thing you can do is keep raising that appearance. Keep lifting and if you aren't seeing matching improvements, try going out to meet people. Some people just aren't photogenic or don't do well on electronic mediums.

Get better photos. There are a LOT of threads on why solid photos help with Tinder game.

My photo of me wearing a V-neck (hairy manchest) was a winner. Also my photo of me surfing (selfie taken with a GoPro on a selfie stick, lol). Also a photo of me playing beach volleyball with all spinner-style women.

Photos are massively important. openers for matches: "Name!" - nearly always get response also saw a guy that got great results on PoF with "you look like a serial killer" . Learn the language of emoticon. My vibe is really fast fun crazy energy etc etc. then im pushing a date, because we just have to because of one retarded thing we have in common, lolz, I mean we both like sandwiches lets go get a baguette together hahaha!!! etc etc. Once you're on a date, its so fucking easy its a joke. Just be fairly normal, don't try too hard, be sexual, usually get the bang on date 2, 1 if she's a ho.

If your pics are bathroom selfies with your shirt off, they could be better. Things that seem to get better attention: pics that display casual social dominance(i.e. looking like a unintentional baller at a party), pics displaying 'class', costumes, pics displaying money, and of course, casual shirtless pics(beach, hiking, etc.)

If you're actually a good looking guy, your photos are the problem. Pics with other women and pets are the best. A pic at the beach shirtless is good too. Unless you have god like looks and body, a shirtless mirror selfie won't work.

So you don't have a high enough SMV. Appearance are all that matters for matches. Having good looks will only get you so far, muscles and especially abs are the most important. You can't expect to get the full package without a pretty full package yourself can you?

You can't expect to be getting a 8s or 9s on a regular basis without a pretty full package, which generally puts more emphasis on muscles (Abz) than looks, so looks won't get you to the top.

Get some mad gains and you'll be much more successful. You can see from TRP, especially Remyprice, that guys who show off their muscles in pictures are pretty successful.
