Male early 20s asking for genuine advice
https://youtube.com/shorts/BtQrV6tKUNU?si=IQ_IjB7IKPpba_N5
I created this video because it’s the best way to really showcase my profile. I’ve been on Hinge on and off for about 2–3 years. I do get matches, and I’m open to any feedback, good or not, because what I’m doing clearly isn’t working. I’ve tried having women build my profile, I’ve changed prompts over and over, and after going back and forth with myself, I feel like this current profile is the most genuinely “me.”
I’ve used Hinge X many times. I even emailed Hinge to reset my algorithm. I’ve taken multiple month-long breaks.
And outside the apps, I’ve gone to with no hyperbole every single dating event in my city. So I know I’m doing something wrong somewhere.
When I say I’ll take advice from everyone, I mean it. But the typical “bro advice” is pretty much where I draw the line.
What I mean is I don’t want to act differently from who I am. For example, I don’t want to wait “_ days” to respond to someone. That’s not how I’d like to be treated if the roles were reversed. I genuinely get excited and reply because I want to meet women who are romantically interested without compromising my values.
Not saying there are only two options, just most of the bro and “bro-dents” advice I have gotten
Also, if the advice is your chop, sorry, man, I can live with that
Will delete this thread after about a month of getting good advice
