So do you have to be like 10/10 to succeed on Tinder or could I actually have some luck there?
Thanks bois
Tinder would work for you, no worries.
My tinder profile is a complete collection of douchebag shirtless pictures, and i still get matched with cute sweet girls who look for relationships.
But you live in a depressing icecube country with a population of 5 million, so thats gonna play a big role with Tinder. I dont think Scandis are too fond of online dating.
Even though Germany has 80 million, i still saw a big difference with Tinder compared to when i was in Florida in the States. In Germany i never got messaged first, but in the states i got messaged all the time and i had girls inviting me over for One Night Stands.
Or i could message a girl and meet her in the club or a bar or whatever the same day. Thats just not happening here in Germany, and i think its even "worse" in Sweden.
If you want Tinder to work for you (in whatever way that might be), you actually have to put effort into it. Message every girl you match with and actually have conversations. Make your Profile as handsome as possible.
The first picture is perfect for your Tinder Profile (the first one people get to see).
Dope, thanks a lot musclefriend. And yeah I can't really picture girls in Sweden asking for one night stands right away lol, so I think you're right about that
Its not even about one night stands. Girls here in Germany were also much more hesitant with meeting up or giving away their phone numbers. And from what i know, girls in sweden are kinda similar in that regard but just more so.
The problem lies more with your country than yourself
Lmao, I might have to move there then
I don't think so, but I can report it if you want? 😂
Here's how Tinder works:
Step 1: You get a match!
Step 2: You message her!
Step 3: You wait
Step 4: She unmatches with you for no reason or just doesn't reply.
Step 5: Steps 1-4 again.
The End.
Lmao yeah that's what I've been hearing a lot of
You're good looking and I'm sure you'll get matches on Tinder. The kind of girls you will attract on there will depend on how you present your profile, i. e. do you want to attract intelligent, classically pretty girl to date, or a 'quick and easy' 'girl for hook ups. It really depends on what you're looking for. There will be plenty of the latter type of girl on Tinder!
Alright, thank you :)
Thanks! Well I'm trying to excel in the sport of powerlifting so yeah lifting is one of my top priorities :p
I guess it works different in Sweeden than most other countries. As far I know, it is mostly just for sex but for there, the level of manners and respect I believe is higher.
For your looks, you know you are good for attracting girls.
Yeah I feel like people are less open for that type of stuff in Sweden than in other parts of the world.
Also, thanks for the last part :p
Yeah and time for me to find another Viking
You can always move to my area and we might match on tinder lmao
Oh if we don't match we wouldn't meet then?
Dw Imma right swipe you, we'll match
I wouldn't use tinder ever :))
In sweden you would :p

Talk to girls in person. Don't waste your time on Tinder.
if you use that second picture in tinder, you'll get zero matches, i guarantee that xD don't brag with your body. women don't care for that.
but even if you do everything right and you're really god at it, i think that in an ideal case 1 in 100 girls you text will be worth a date.
Well yeah I did write under the picture that I wasn't planning on using it on tinder 😅
1/100 sounds like a good enough chance lmao
yeah but then out of those only like 1/10 is worth a second date so it becomes 1/1000 you text maybe xD so it's really not easy. better go with the real live approach.
also i read the text xD it's just that many guys are tempted to do this classic bathroom selfi with like a muscle shirt or soemthing. be sure to avoid posing and shit at all cost.
have your images show you together with friends and while doing things you like to show who you are. that's the most effective.
Lmao yeah but it really is tempting to have at least one picture showing off my body though. I feel like I'm losing out on matches if I don't show off what I got, you know? Couldn't like the last picture be the one I have as my profile picture on here, the gym mirror selfie? Or do you think that's also too douchey?
yes that is posing. don't do it. there's only one way you can make that cool in my opinion. set up a photo with a few friends where you're smiling and having fun. you can be creative about what you do that ALSO kind of shows what you got but don't make showing off your body the main focus. girls will automatically assume you're a superficial douche otherwise and you'll reduce your chances even though they might realisticly want exactly that body xD
so i suggest you stage a humorous shot, where one of your friends is shouting at you while you like a drill instructor while you almost seem to fail doing the rep xD that could be good. you'll find something that shows the parts of your body you're proud of.
ok i mean at your age you might just look for a meaningless hookup, in that case the douchy pose could work for you but not if you're looking for a quality girl ;)
Alright man, thanks for the tips. I'm gonna try to come up with some creative ways to show off lol
also, while i'm at it: your arms are perfect. try not to put more muscle on them except maybe a little on the shoulders. girls have a different sense of esthetics when it comes to arms. they like them less "muscilar" than men would prefer for themselfes and i think you're pretty much in the sweet spot there. also i wouldn't go for more definition if i were you, cause women don't like the "shredded" look. focus a little more on pecs and core, then you're pretty much perfect from a body symmetry and esthetics perspective. also mind your facial expression when posing :D if it looks like you're trying too hard, it can ruin the overall image.
Well the thing is I don't train for looks at all, I train for powerlifting which means I want to be as strong as possible. If I only trained to look good I would be about 20kg lighter and have ripped abs lol 😂 And yeah the face really says I am trying hard, but this picture is only meant for myself. I take pictures like this about once a month so I can see how my body changes over the course of a couple of years etc :p
ok lol for a serious power lifter, you're very lean xD i take it you're naturally on the ektomorph sice? anyway that will definitely help with the chicks :D
*side
Well nah I've actually been kinda fat as a kid, so I wouldn't say I'm an ectomorph. The thing is there are weight classes in powerlifting, and I've chosen to stay in the 83kg weight class. Right now I weigh 85 but that doesn't really matter since I'm not close to a competition at the moment. All powerlifters aren't the 130kg guys that you see pretty often. Most are pretty regular weight people :p
oh yeah that's pretty smart :D if you stay in that weight class, you won't become one of those bear type guys xD those muscle insertions look optimal for maximum power too. it's all about biomechanics. i mean if you stay natural, there will be a power limit anyway and then it comes down to muscle insertions and your hight.
Yeah the only real problem I have with my biomechanics is the fact that I have pretty long femurs. So I'm not really optimally built for squats or deadlifts but it's all about finding a stance width that works with your leverages and all that
XD yup. for weight class power lifting, you'd optimally be a tiny stumpy guy with super short bones and super long muscle insertions :D but no girl wants a miniature hulk like that ^^
genetically you've maybe got the short end of the stick when it comes to power lifting but at least you are well off when it comes to attracting women xD so don't complain :P
Lol yeah I'm not complaining :p
It is not logical
My friend joined and he had more matches than I did, and my bother so than and they don't look better then me... It is kinda of a luck thing man
Don't try it, it is useless trust me.
Unless all you want is hook ups
Well hooking up sounds fun too
Maybe I'm not :p
Dating sites are particularly difficult for men. The women on those site get swamped with messages/requests, so ofc they're going to only respond to the top 20% (meaning looks and income). I've been on those sites for over a year, and I get zero bites. Best to strike up a conversation with women in RL.
bro dont worry, ull find girls without problem, just upload pic where ur looking aesthetic and pussy comes fast. But im personally against tinder and that shits. It makes me think im loser I don't know why. I bett you can find girl without tinder.
Thanks mate, still mirin' you hard by the way
im thinking about cutting hard now. I tried bulk and just looked bad. More i cut more strenght and better i look. I guess when you are under 20years old you dont need bulking. We have crazy testo boosts in puberty and when mixing creatine with your workout and cutting in same time you are getting crazy gains. I suggest you try cut and stay lean for longer time since ur still 17/18 u can look ripped all the time. Everybody told me thats impossible to cut and gain muscle and i did it from 72kg up to 80kg without bulking and only took me few months (around 4-5)
Yeah I really do want to cut but the thing is I'm doing powerlifting, not bodybuilding. And when I cut down earlier this year I went from 82 to 75, and even though I looked better I got pretty weak which I obviously can't afford since I'm a powerlifter. I'm at 85kg right now and the picture is of me shirtless is from like a couple of days ago. So you can see that I'm looking kinda soft at this weight, but I'm still gonna stay at this weight just for the strength.
i got stronger since i started eating a lot rice and chicken (every day) and taking like shit toons of preworkout and i got like really a lot stronger. But i guess for power lifting you need weight. Keep lifting heavy and one day when you become next larry dont forget me haha. I started as power lifter first half-1year but realized im fucking up my body hard, now im doing heavy rarerly. Mostly i do reps and dips/push ups/pull ups with additional kg. by the way i feel very athelic and aesthetic too. I used to be always power lifter or heavy lifter in bodybuilding with 0 cardio and i felt like shit. Since i started doing cardio and cutting i feel like if somebody wake me in middle of night i can go to gym and do heavy or bodyworkout even with empty stomach
Yeah sounds pretty fun being at a lighter weight, but I'm gonna have to resist and stay on my path. And thanks man, good luck in bodybuilding. See you at the top :p
Why making this face on the second pic, are you going to kick somebodies' ass😂
It's impossible to look good while flexing 😅
good that there is a body to distract but then what's the point if flexing
That's a good point you got there 🤔
I guess the point of flexing is to scare people away from my weights in the gym lol
Lol you gotta mark your territory, I see
Just don't pee on it
I've heard people don't take it good
I've been peeing on the weights for the last two years. The gym owner has tried to kick me out multiple times but I always scare him away by flexing
Haha this explains it all
From what I've heard it's pretty impossible unless you spend a ton of time on it. Girls get so many matches, probably dozens, and half are going to be better than you.
Never used it. Being someone who looks ethnic I don't think it would work out for me anyways. You should have a strong chance tho
your a white male... it should be a gold mine for you.
I'm black as fuck
Lol that made me chuckle, thanks mate
I dunno, man. I never really felt the need to use tinder. But from what I have heard, it is pretty tough for guys out there.
Not true at all--just be yourself. You do not need to be a model at all. :)
U also have swipe girls and those 10/10 guys might be really picky?
Dude online dating sucks , approach girls outside and you have a much greater chance
You’re a little cutie! You’re good ♥️
"You’re a little cutie!" thats an insult for guys.
@furiousrat am i rite?
"Little" is an EXTREMELY offensive thing to say to a gym rat, ain't nothing little about me. Also being called cutie makes me feel 0% like a man. But both "little" and "cutie" have different meanings when someone older is saying it, so I'm taking it as a compliment lmao
Seriously! I’m like 10yrs older than him. I meant it as a good thing. Don’t twist my words. I’m not tying to offend anyone. Little + cutie used together have such a different meaning.
I noticed the gains my dude. Def nothing small about you. From one gym rat to another I def am miring the gains. .
Lmao yeah I understand, I'm just messing around here 😂
Go ahead and use the muscle pic. It will get you some quick pussy.
Clean yourself up and you should do OK.
Hmm, if you are talking about my hair in the second picture, it's messy because I was pretty fresh out of the shower
I think u have luck hahah
I'd be interested hahah
Lmao thanks :p
Hahah im 17 as well
And ur welcome 😁
And im a picky girl... Like all my friends say i have way too high standards... So you're there 😉
Hehe, I appreciate that :)
Haha itd the truth... Goodluck with finding a girl
Can i message you pls?
Shut up dad I'm a big boy
Hahaha
Im 17 too so i guess we're both not allowed hahah
Hahah ik he seems like it... I did pm him... We didn't talk much tho
No he's nice haha... But i didn't get to know him much
My comment got so popular in this question hahah
Haha don't worry 😀😀
@furiousrat be nice to the lady
No no he's nice haha poor thing
Hahaha lol
No he's a sweet guy
Are u guys trying to get me to compliment him? Hahah
Hahah he seems like one dw
Hahah but don't force him to continue texting me cuz maybe he doesn't like me
We'll wait for his reply now lol
Well, take my word for it, he's is a very sweet guy! Message me! I can give you advice if you want it! :)
@Sheriblossom lol I am still waiting for him 🤣
We haven't talked much... But he seems nice yes
I feel like a lot of people are trying to set me us up together lol hahah
yo what the fuck is happening lmao
Hahaha @furiousrat I am waiting to see how did you treat the lady over here
Well we talked about tinder for a little while, I guess I treated her well those 10 minutes 🤔
@furiousrat 🙄🙄 10 minutes
Make it 60 minutes now please
@AbdKilani Lmao I never realized how hard it was to actually have good conversation, I almost took it for granted lol
@Sheriblossom lol I always try to have a good conversation with anyone
People are interesting
@AbdKilani Right? I can totally agree with you on that one, but I mean, quite honestly, some people have less personality than a potato, not gonna lie, so it's quite difficult to have to talk with some people, hence it's rare to really connect with someone
Shall we try? @furiosrat
@Sheriblossom indeed that's true but even though you can still have a good conversation
@furiousrat make me proud 😡
It's the expert level.
Feels bad man
You look like you will be fine lol
For you probably fine
