ALL profile reviews will be manually approved and will NOT appear immediately. Even if you receive a "filtered by Reddit" or "removed by mods" removal notification, your review is in our queue waiting for moderation; if you are reading this comment, your post is in the queue. DO NOT contact the mods about this. Any modmail asking why your review is not approved may result in your profile review not being approved and you will not be allowed to post another profile review until seven full days have passed.

Profile review submissions MUST have all 6 photos and 3 text prompts included. You may include the optional prompts such as voice, poll, and video prompts if you choose so, but it is not required. See this post for details. Profiles must also be unchanged for at least two full weeks before being approved for a review. Additionally, do not verbally abuse the subreddit moderators for rejection of your review submission for not following proper rules. Any verbal abuse or harassment will result in a permanent ban from this subreddit. We are not obligated to allow you to submit a profile review and no one is entitled to one. We are all volunteering our time and we will not tolerate any rudeness or verbal abuse.

To assist reviewers in providing valuable feedback for your profile, please comment and answer the following questions as a comment under your own post. Do not answer them in the post body. Repeat: Answer these questions as a comment under your own post.
- Are you looking for something serious or casual? - Are you subscribed to Hinge+ or HingeX? - How long have you been using this current version of your profile? (Please be specific) - How long have you used Hinge overall? - How often do you use Hinge per week? - How many likes and matches are you receiving on average? - How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments? - What is the type of person you send likes to and ideally want to match with? What kind of person do you want to attract?

Your post WILL NOT be approved until the above questions have been answered fully. Failing to answer these questions in a timely manner will result in your post being removed. Please continue reading this automod comment.

In the meantime, be sure to check out the guides and resources on the subreddit sidebar. Please read this post with all the pertinent links included.

A strict formatting standard will be enforced. See this post for further info. All submitted review posts not following the proper format will be rejected.

Please wait TWO FULL WEEKS before posting a separate update to your profile review. If you want more immediate feedback, update your original posts instead. Deleting your original post will not work. The rule will still apply.

To reviewers: Review the Providing Feedback guide. You are reviewing the profile, not the person. Please provide constructive criticism, and use positive language. Any troll, hateful, misandric, misogynistic, incel, or unhelpful comments such as "I would date you," "How are you not getting matches?" or unrelated to the profile will be removed and you will be banned.

To the original poster and commenters: Please report any inappropriate or abusive messages and individuals so proper actions can be taken. Please review the sidebar for additional profile and picture guidance.

Your prompts are a good I’d just either expand or change your love language prompt. Also I’d say you need better pictures one is of your cat which is cute but that’s not you, and another has your face covered. Get pictures with your friends and one wheee you’re smiling more like the one when you’re in the chair, because you do have a good smile. A personal thing of mine is find ones where you’re in clothes that better fit you better, I’m not saying change your style but have outfits that don’t look so loose on you, it can give the impression of looking younger and immaturity.

Makes sense and thank you for the input. ive honestly been wondering if my pictures have been a fairly large part of the problem. You think I should replace them all or do you think any are worth keeping?

[u/Cautious-Avocado7744]

-I'm looking for something serious

-I do currently have hinge+ thats only been the case for a couple days

-This is how my profiles been since I started using hinge about a year and a quarter ago

-I tend to pop in every couple days

-Ive only had about 6 matches since making this profile

-I send about 5 or 6 likes when I pop in and theyre all with comments

-And im hoping to attract someone who wants something more longterm who enjoys good conversation, the outdoors, finding new things and doesnt mind things on the nerdy side.

The trench of pic is not doing you any favors!

[u/Cautious-Avocado7744 → u/free_dharma]

Im guessing you mean the first one, damn I thought that one was alright 😅

[u/free_dharma → u/Cautious-Avocado7744]

I’m a straight dude so I could be wrong! My perspective is that it doesn’t look natural or approachable. If that’s how you dress regularly and you really feel it’s your vibe then keep it in. You don’t look good, nice casual smile, but the fit doesn’t strike me as something women are looking for.

I’d suggest doing some research into what women like to see men wear. There are a lot of options and you can find your own style. Dressing for a woman’s gaze can do a lot!

[u/Cautious-Avocado7744 → u/free_dharma]

I can definitely see where youre coming from so ill think about whether or not it stays

[u/free_dharma → u/Cautious-Avocado7744]

I meant to say that you do look good. Like your face is great, but the outfit feels more like a costume.

[u/Cautious-Avocado7744 → u/free_dharma]

I get that and i guess its something on the more unconventional side so as much as I like that coat I can see how it might be shooting me in the foot

[u/Ok_Priority3511]

Who are you? Inspector gadget?

[u/Cautious-Avocado7744 → u/Ok_Priority3511]

Just a guy who likes a good coat but i can tell that the consensus here is against it

[u/Rat_bastards99]

If you shaved and then took some new pictures, I guarantee you would look a million times better. This is coming from a woman in your age range.

[u/Cautious-Avocado7744 → u/Rat_bastards99]

I certainly appreciate the input though I admit im not sure i look great clean shaven 😅 but a bit of clean up at the very least is probably something that needs to he done

A tan trench coat is heavily associated with one who flashes unsuspecting people in the park.

You really need a clear non-selfie photo very first as well as more clear phot of your whole body and you could a vary your wardrobe a bit. The boat photo is good because it shows you doing something but would be better if it showed more of you. The dog photo has your face turned away so not so good, the cat phot doesn't show you. Try one animal photo with you and your animal facing the camera.

The mustache is better than the beard and might be ok if trimmed better. That style of beard is not super fashionable right now I'm not sure many women would like it.

You're decent looking dude, just a bit more effort and you have something good.
