I'm not using Tinder. But here's something I see. From an app like Tinder, it all comes down how good we look from the outside, isn't it? Its not about personality. It's about how gorgeous you look and how luxuriously you live, which makes you the ultimate chick magnet. Isn't that the truth? IMO this a waste of time for average or below average looking guys. Terrible Tinder. :D

You can do a lot to change your looks on tinder. Take an awesome pic (any more zoomed out than to knees is too much, don't look directly at the camera, faint smile, then your second pic you can have some action, like playing guitar, or do some kind of sports etc.)
Then go in and add better shading through editting.

I'd recommend going in on tinder advisor. They got some good tips. But as here if you want more detail you'll have to pay for it.

While good looks is part of attraction it is only a piece of the pie. Good looks really is just an indication of good genes if you want to be scientific about it. What else makes up good genes? Well lets look at attractive traits in a male...

A man who is
-dominant
-healthy
-social
-experienced
-etc. (GC is full of insights on these kind of things)

You can think of pictures as a window into your life. Show off how you are a sexy man.

Even regarding looks, a TROLL who is driven to do well still has options to improve his own. He can fix his teeth, groom himself well, sexy hair cut, dress well (fitting stylish clothes), work out, work on his posture, eat right. And everyone here is human. A man willing and capable of doing all these things (THAT ANY MAN CAN DO) will be exhibiting many attractive traits that aren't even really about looks. (initiative, direction in life, motivated, etc etc etc) All while maximizing his looks.

DO NOT get hung up about looks. It is a sorry excuse and a misunderstanding of attraction. There is something you can do about it and its all laid out in great detail on this site.

I'm all about that tough love. I want to see you do great things man.

Professionally-done photos is the solution, here. If you only want to lay the occasional fatty or average-looking girl, you can skimp on the photos and just post some "okay" ones. But if you want to have real success on there, you have to get professionally done photos.
