Does having professionally taken photos increase the number of matches guys get on dating apps?

[Anonymous]

Yes it does

No it doesn’t

I don't think it's necessary. It's less the quality of a photo and more the subject matter. You have to understand your photos tell a story to a woman. What is the story that your photos are telling? I mean if they're all selfish of you. The story it tells is you have no friends. If all of them is just you at home. The story it tells is you're a shut in.
Be mindful of the way a woman is going to perceive your pics.

[AviatorTom]

I doubt it. A good photo, whether it's done professionally or not, plus an interesting profile, is what gets the most interest on dating sites.

[Subarugirl]

yeah it really does. Well taken photos are awesome, you just want to make sure that they are more candid or lifestyle. These are not photos for your linked in lol. A well written bio also goes a long way

[ChiTown33]

Bio's are pointless most women don't even read them. It's always best to leave that part blank ( if the goal is to maximize messages with most guys it is). If you leave it blank it forces her to write the bio in her head based upon your pics. And women when they like your pics will always write something better in their head then the guy could ever come up with.

@ChiTown33 lol as a woman who has used dating apps and are friends with a bunch of girls who do, I'm afraid that you are mistaken. Most women do read the bios. I think you are projecting.

[ChiTown33]

No hun. I'm just good at calling people out on b. s. . But think whatever you like. No matter how wrong you are

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 You couldn't give one legitimate example of something I said with out paraphrasing... so what were you saying about bull shit?

[ChiTown33]

You know if you're going go refute you actually have to have some substance to your argument.

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 as a photographer and a woman, I understand first hand what kind of dating profile gets a woman’s attention. As a man you know what kind of dating profile gets your attention…. There is a difference

[ChiTown33]

As a man I know what has been successful with women and what hasn't. And trust me the difference is night and day.
And if you're a photographer why is your profile picture so poorly taken?

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 and considering your are still single and bitter I would say that what “works for you” hasn’t really worked… as for my profile, would you wear a tux to a grocery store?

[ChiTown33]

I said "poorly taken" I didn't say "poorly dressed". How stupid are you?

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 so you know what an analogy is, or do I need to explain that too?

[ChiTown33]

Are you kidding? I'm still waiting for you to figure out what a quote is. Because clearly you've yet to learn that.

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 hon you can't paraphrase something and then put it into quotes... it doesn't work that way

[ChiTown33]

I swear it's like talking to a 5 year old. Read again! I've quoted you. And I've paraphrased you. I quoted you like twice. Once again as evidenced by the quotation marks. The reast of the time I paraphrased you. Good God! Smh

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 let me repeat one more time since you are having trouble understanding….
you can't paraphrase something and then put it into quotes... it doesn't work that way

[ChiTown33]

You can repeat it a thousand times. You still are ignorant. And at this point I don't know if you're incapable of learning or if this is just willful ignorance on your part. As I said I've done both. Sometime I paraphrased you and a couple times I quoted you. If you would have scrolled up you would have seen that. But you know you're wrong. You know you're beat. And that's why you're just trying to prolong the exchange.

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 I am talking specifically about the part where you said that I said “I’m done” when I didn’t… but you refuse to acknowledge that, and I refuse to let a bitter old man twice my age try to gaslight me.

[ChiTown33]

Gaslight. You really do live in your own little paranoid world don't you. You're or horrible human being! All I'm doing is holding a mirror up to you. You just don't like what you see. That's all.

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 ohh honey, projecting and mirroring are two different things, if you don’t understand that I can try and dumb it down for you so that you can understand.

[ChiTown33]

You're right they are 2 different things. Mine is reality yours is fantasy. You're a woman so I don't expect you to understand the difference. But as far as thinking on your level that might be possible if I were lobotomized.

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 uhuu and you are projecting. And apparently like the attention you get from me which is why you keep coming back to my comment.

[ChiTown33]

I'm not projecting I'm correcting big difference. And I could care less about your attention. I've already said I'd be fine if your stupid a** would just be quiet lol. But I have to correct you because your MISINFORMATION can be dangerous.

[Subarugirl]

@ChiTown33 oh so you keep coming back and now I am dangerous, wow that’s a reach. If you didn’t care would wouldn’t have found another one of my answers and started whining on that one too. Don’t you have grand kids or something you should be playing with?

[Wise4myage]

It can certainly help.

[Asker]

By how much though? If a guy currently gets 0 matches, will he get more than 0?

[Wise4myage]

Id say at least 7.

[Asker]

A woman just voted it doesn’t.
