Hi guys, just FYI - in one example of watching a particular girl use Tinder while we cuddled in bed (this was 100% a jealousy test), her swipe strategy is as follows:

1. Left swipe quickly through almost every guy based on 2-3 full seconds on their main picture only
2. Open the odd attractive guy (she may have been extra pickier under my view)
3. Spend 2-3 seconds on each of his pictures and reading the blurb
4. Spend 5 seconds on the fence, then swipe for an immediate match

Girls obviously have an opposite strategy.

P.s. We fucked in the forest four times! Tinder's awesome.

Yeah, I feel like most guys do this too. Either that or they're like me and just swipe right on everyone then pick out who they like after they match. lol.

Some guys left swipe more than right? I swipe right maybe 70% or if bored about it, 85% lol (and if really bored all right before the pictures load), then typically unmatch one or two a day. I'm not getting many matches though (still have shit pictures), but having one scratching an obviously happy cat, another with an ex cut off, and not making my whole profile and messaging a role play for a secretary at my office anymore has definitely helped lol

I'm interested in the algorithm though. Do you guys think being pickier and the number of right swipes on your profile impact how far to the front it is for girls?

WOW pictures matter lol just made a new profile and got more matches in an hour than the last one did in one week. It was exactly the same, except one new less blurry picture as the main one. It's 6 years old lol avoiding cameras paid off everywhere but here. That's the big lesson of this thread lol: CLEAR PICTURES

and cats

Here's a Tinder trick: we all know what "cuddle" means (watching movies, obviously lol). Some girls are straight up and use it on their profiles.

This was easy cause she wanted an "expert cuddler" so I mirrored her by getting her to qualify for it instead. So my opener was that I'd never cuddled before and that it sounds hard (i.e. not gonna play her qualifying game as other guys may have <--didn't say this part in brackets though), then asked if she was good at it.

She said haha so good but that she's picky.

I took this as anti-slut defense so am wondering for anyone reading if you think it would have been best to address that concern, maybe while chase framing within the context of her having already screened through the app and helping paint her as picky and having chosen me?

Instead, I said "like sharp and prickly? does it hurt?", totally sidestepping her frame.

She said no, never (which I'll take as buy-in), and I said "oh good, 'cause it's clearly rough from what I see on the internet", then cut the thread into deep diving in case she gets too resistant to overt sexuality (don't want to risk it lol and plan to get to logistics asap, figuring if she follows after all THAT, it means she's receptive sexually)
 
the right date makes getting her back home a piece of cake
