Search Results: online dating problems

So I'm sure most guys can relate to the struggle of Tinder and online dating in general. While girls struggle with finding "the right guy" there are plenty of us out there. The problem is, nobody ever replies to us and have incredibly high expectations for the first message like "be different" or other ambiguous/superficial criteria. Most of us men average 1 reply for every 20-50 messages we send out. Even still, there is a very low probability that the replies will continue after 1-3 messages. On Tinder I personally average 1 match every 2-3 days, even if I swipe every single person right indiscriminantly (which I do on occasion.) I decided I'm going to post a new recurring series of questions.

These will include photos of my Tinder profile and girls can vote and explain their votes in order for me to learn the best practices as well as share them with other guys like me who are struggling to receive replies because there are a lot of us. Also please be brutal honest about other factors like racial preferences, physical attraction, etc. So anyway, below you will see my profile and all of my pictures and bio.

Bear in mind. I'm well aware that the last bit of my bio isn't exactly the most appealing statement but just note that it's there as a RESULT of no replies. It's not the cause of them. I've tried several different types of bios from funny, serious, disgruntled (lol) and it doesn't seem like it makes a difference on my rate of replies or matches.

This is my display picture. I always hated the idea of using filters to fake the lighting etc but I guess that's the norm now. Trying it out.
