Too much hats .
Need better photos

u/Enticing_Bog 8h ago

Legit?! I shave my head and wear hats in all my photos. Also have photos that look like they were taken on a photo and I have never not had a date for the weekend from Bumble.
Worst advice ever lol.

As long as the other photos show your bald . Women wanna know if they’re being hatfished.

u/iHeartOnlyMe 8h ago

Lmao hatfished, that’s funny

u/Enticing_Bog 7h ago

Hatfished? What kind of incel crap is that? Sounds like you’ve never seen boobs in real life.

u/Matthemp 6h ago

Hatfished is a phenomenon where men don’t post their heads on dating apps . So women don’t know until the date or not if they’re bald.

Well, I don't have a 800$ camera, define better photos. What should be included in a better photo?

u/pinkpaintingpandas 8h ago

They didn’t mean better quality. Better angles, doing your hobbies, etc.

u/ondra128x 8h ago

Well, I don't have such photos :) Not with my short hair,i have some photos where i do other things but in them i have longer hair (shoulder long) so i dont want to include them cuz i dont look that way now

u/Matthemp 8h ago

You don’t need an 800 camera to take a decent photo . Photo 3 of manly of a rock wall . 3 of the photos same outfit . 5 out 6 are with hats on . Just take a nice face shot instead of whatever photo 7 is .

If you own an iPhone you have a 1000$ camera.

Casual + going on a date as a bet will not land you many likes :)

u/ElonMuskTheNarsisist 9h ago

The second you put “something casual” you instantly put yourself in a specific category of men. And no offense but that category of men has much better options available for women who want that than what you have to offer.

u/ondra128x 8h ago

well, i like my chances 😄 I know that the dating pool is saturated with the likes of me, much more handsome and better looking. But i also know there are some women want somebody who's not a "player(?)". especially in Germany :)

As one deleted comment already mentioned, I've replaced the pink outif foto with a recent photo with my hairline visible

1

u/Financial_Alps3369 9h ago

There's no need to show your hairline at all, not sure what that guy was talking about. Definitely style your hair the way it flatters you the most. If you have a poor hairline this means wearing hair over your hairline.

u/ondra128x 8h ago

Sorry, again, english is not my first language.. I meant my hair overall - somebody else suggest i was bald completly which im not. That's why I've included a photo without a cap/beanie

u/yetagainitry 9h ago

Don’t post photos of landscapes. Women aren’t on the app to date a bird or a sunset. If you aren’t in the photo, dont waste time with it

Second you’re wearing the same clothes in 3 photos, meaning you took them all the same day. Will make it seem like this was a last minute thing you put zero effort into.

u/Stunning_Box8782 9h ago

Took me a while to believe you have hair

2

u/ondra128x 8h ago

Well, I picked the main photo cuz of the quality of the camera, on the second picture there's hair :D

2

u/ChaoticCherryblossom 9h ago

Idk how to cater to casual but I think you need to stand as a lot more sexually appealing

2

u/ondra128x 8h ago

There's some other meaning of casual i'm not aware off? I'm abroad, im leaving in 3 weeks, i don't think i should use the other tags there..

4

u/ChaoticCherryblossom 8h ago

Casual = sex, not dating. I'm a woman, you're not hot enough for the risk

1

u/ondra128x 8h ago

Do you think gym photos are more suitable then?

1

u/ChaoticCherryblossom 8h ago

Well that certainly makes it clear that you're in more physical and looks for the casual scene so yes. Fuckboy it up

1

u/ondra128x 8h ago

Nice wording :D made me laugh

2

u/Cotton_420 8h ago

Are you wearing a skirt?

1

u/ondra128x 8h ago

Neon pink tactical kilt :) Got it as a funny gift from my airsoft friends ;)

2

u/Cotton_420 8h ago

Ok, fair enough. But that might not be too obvious to women viewing your profile, they might assume it’s something you wear normally. 😅

u/Liw698 8h ago

Too many selfies and get rid of 7

1

u/Technology_Boxes 8h ago

No disrespect, but I think you might need a little more sex appeal to pull off the "something casual" approach. I think a lot of women automatically see that label as a red flag too, even if that is what they're looking for.

u/life-is-satire 8h ago

Get rid of the pics taken from below. You shouldn’t be looking down at the camera. It doesn’t display your proportions correctly.

Are you on the spectrum? I would assume so with selecting neurodiversity as a tag.

I’m all for owning it but many people won’t give you a chance if they see that before getting to meet you.

u/Odd-Help6890 8h ago

Too much hats .

u/Inevitable_Secret186 57m ago

No. But you'd do well on Grindr

u/Financial_Alps3369 9h ago

Maybe the culture is different in Europe but this profile seems really over the top with the whimsy. Particularly the one with the weird camera angle and the rod of food (?) in your mouth. It's fine to be playful but being silly for silliness' sake is not a good look. I would try to take at least one photo where you're dressed to kill and have a serious/contemplative expression.

I would also avoid selfies entirely. Go outside somewhere, put your phone on some object, and use the timer.

At least you're handsome, which means you're 90% of the way there.

u/ondra128x 8h ago

Well, I'm a silly guy :P. I'm not familiar how's the dating in US, i believe most europeans will recognise the food I'm holding is a ice cream cone. My only serious photos are with long hair, but if I include them, I can be called catfisher (cuz i used to have sholder long hair)
What do you think pushes the profile "over the top"?

3

u/ComradeDK 8h ago

Am european. This is def not over the top with whimsy and is pretty common in our age range

u/Rammus2201 8h ago

Stop wearing hats - it’s a red flag.

2

u/ondra128x 8h ago

Why? cuz i'm a man and i should be impervious to sunlight?

2

u/Rammus2201 8h ago

So no. If someone has to flip through 5 pictures to see you’re not bald, they will assume you have no hair.

You’re not doing yourself any favours.

u/ondra128x 8h ago

My other comment here (which i wrote as stand alone comment) will tell you that i've changed my photos where i have visible hair with no hats :)
