99.9% of articles that teach you "tinder hacks" or "tinder techniques" to "boost your matches by 10x" are complete and utter horse shit. basically recycled garbage "advice" that only serves the purpose of marketing and getting you to pay for said "guru's" PUA product

i'd rather pick up girls on instagram which is what i've been testing for about a week now. so far i've gotten interest but no dates as of now

Sounds like you're bouncing around between two extremes. Neither one of which is true. Tinder shouldn't be taking up so much of your time that you're getting frustrated with it and deleting it.

It's to be run in the background; an extra thing at most that could be used to supplement real world social interactions.

Japan has given me nothing to work with over the past 8 months.

I'm above average looking with OK pics in a major US city. I get about 4 matches per month and none of them seem very interesting or interested. When I travel in Latin America I get about 5 matches per day and about 1/3 are pretty receptive & down to meet up.

What are your results exactly? Tbh I have the same experience. I get some matches, but a lot of them don't respond or aren't interested in meeting.

No matter what, I must say that it's very nice to have someone include sources in their comment. Overall I agree to pretty much everything you've written.

I have no objections to fit>not fit in the dating game and in pretty much every aspect of life other than that. I just think that the parent comment may have overstated the importance of fitness, considering OP saying he already is average looking. It is true that cutting down on starch and the like will have an effect on water retention and I am not saying not to watch his carb intake. Rather I objected to the notion of one size fits all. 80 grams of carbs is in my opinion a very weird recommendation to hand out, knowing nothing of OP. So rather I would recommend OP to look into fitness a bit and educate himself on the matter. That way he would hopefully end up with a diet actually tailored to his needs and some goals actually based on his measures and stuff like hips-waist ratio etc.

it's OK. Cold approach is king. But I have had many more matches and dates because I improved my physique by lifting and dressing better. I don't even have professional photos and I already have more matches with increasingly attractive girls. Woman are superficial and your lucky to get as many swipes as a HB6 girl gets, these are the facts but for an introvert like myself its OK.

Keep your BIO short and sweet decent photos that are recent fuck go ahead and shop them the girls do and even if you don't 100% look like your pics woman are more accepting of this since frame is more attractive than looks. Also set up the meet ASAP you cant build attraction on texting.

tinder is an attention whores dream(women) dont take it seriously - is not representative of real life approaches

I consider myself to be the least successful person with Tinder on planet earth, lol.

Like, use up all my swipes every day, and get 1 match per month if i'm lucky.

I assume it's just because i'm ugly! haha. I mean, i'm sure my pics could be better (like, of me doing interesting things, and more 'arty' etc etc) but you wouldn't think that would matter THAT much.

Sometimes I wonder if there's some sort of bug or something!!

Reason I say that is, When I first used tinder when it first came out, I got some matches. I then made a second account (made a new facebook profile) and from that day, more or less, my matches went down and down.

But then the fact that I still get 'some' matches (like one per month) would suggest that nothing is broken, and it's just a lack of facial aesthetics lol

I hate to say it, but women are on tinder getting laid and meeting people. The hard reality is, is that if you’re not meeting some people than you’re just not being competitive with other men. Women have choice and they’re going to choose the top guys that approach them. Some guys become bitter losers at this reality (incels and red pillers), but let’s be honest. If you had a hot 9/10 girl asking to meet up sat night and a 6/10 girl doing the same, we would all pick the first.

The great news is that everyone can self develope, improve themselves and get more skin in the game. What that self improvement looks like will be different for different people
