Your pictures suck. Not that youre not photogenic.

You feel lonely because you put no effort in improving your dating life.

Setting up a tinder profile and swiping is not effort.

That's true. Do in person approaches instead

Don't focus on OLD. Learn street game, day game, basically chatting to people on the street/shop/library/gym etc. Also, you need to build a social life that is maybe not about sitting at home playing video games or painting models. You need other things that get you out. Or maybe join a power lifting club instead of just going to the gym on your own. Or got to a CrossFit gym (I know, different, but you could do that for a class a week). CrossFit boxes are super social places! With a more out-of-the-house life you meet more people and of course also women.

OLD is super bad for mental health. It looks easy and so available, but you need to have excellent pics and excellent chatting skills. And there is so many flakes and false people on there...

Learn day game and use it for the rest of your life.

SOME effort is better than NO EFFORT.

You're straight up being defeated at the starting point, it's like saying you want to lift 200 lbs but because you can't, you won't even start. You gotta build up first, you can't jump to your goal in your first try.

Initially I started with photos I pulled from Facebook and other friends, but then I used a tripod and took photos, until I got several good ones, eventually I replaced even those with better photos. It wasn't overnight (though it is possible to do it in one night if you have the right planning).

It is.

first of all stop with the mirror selfies and get some photos taken of you by a photographer or even have a friend take some nice photos of you with you wearing some nice clothes.

Just get a friend who is into photography to take some pictures. I recently took pictures of a friend for his OLD profiles. I really enjoyed the session, as it gave me the opportunity to try things out and having a model for free is always nice.

There are a lot of good comments here.

Can I just add there are apps out there which rate your photo so, even if you hate the photo or feel you look dorky in them (dorky is sometimes good), you can get an unbiased opinion.

Hire a tinder photographer dude. Or just a photographer.

WhiteningMcClean · 2022-02-13T13:09:05+00:00

I’m in the same boat, and I just took a couple “selfies” using a timer and a bar stool. It felt a little sad but it got me the results I wanted.

What type of girl are you looking for? Does she have to be photogenic?

But like others say… tall and fit makes everything easier. Many athletes get great girls for just those two things. They can be dead boring and ugly.

Girls want people that are motivated and confident. Show that you are putting effort into your life.

Girls generally avoid people without confidence and those that are lazy.

Focus on your strengths and not your weaknesses. With confidence in your strengths nobody will really care about if you have hobbies that they are not interested in.

Tips:

Have someone take your photo for you. Be comfortable being uncomfortable. Make sure they show how tall you are. If you can’t ask someone, hire someone. This step is #1, #2 and #3 because it means you are going out of your comfort zone. All hot chicks live outside your comfort zone. There are literally no hot chick inside the comfort zone.
Make sure you have good posture in the photos, being tall but with bad posture can look terrible and insecure.
Become ambitious about something and share your ambition, even if it is a niche… people are drawn to ambition. If you talk about the model painting, dont talk about anything technical. Talk about why you want to be good at it and how it makes you feel. Talking about feelings makes everything relatable.
Don’t focus on your weaknesses or even your strengths when you talk to ladies. People love talking about themselves, so focus on the girl and what she is interested in. Ask questions and be genuinely interested in learning more about her. The more you talk about her the better.

Go on Instagram, find a photographer that has a lot of good looking pics of people they're advertising, and shoot them a DM. Hire them for a couple hours and take their advice

Helping a tall dude doesn't serve my interest because you literally get it easy in the dating game that if you are 6'2 and above then all you need to do is put that. But DM and I'll fix your profile for you. Plus I'll show you how to get pics alone

Nightmare mode? I’m short, balding, speech impediment plus ugly.

Dryingpan101 · 2022-02-14T01:26:04+00:00

Instagram game is way better than dating apps. You can show your personality and game models. Win win.
