Improve Your Online Dating Profile Pictures
When it comes to Online Dating a lot of people think of it as a joke and something that doesnât really matter because its âOnline Dating.â Well guess what, the people who have those thoughts are the ones who end up complaining and bitching that theyâre not getting any type of results so they have nothing but negative things to say about it.
A better way to think about it is to joke around and have fun, having THAT mindset will help you out a lot more than not giving a shit. If youâre going to put your time and effort into something make it worth your while, donât just half ass it so you can bitch and nag about it later, KNOW WHAT IâM SAYINâ???
Okay, pictures. When it comes to choosing your pictures thereâs a few things that come into playâŚ
1.) Have recent photos of yourself
2.) Having QUALITY photos
3.) Have more than 3 pictures of yourselfÂ
4.) Have pictures of you OUTSIDE of your house
Having recent photos of yourself is important because your style could have changed, you could have gone balled or you could have gained or lost some weight. If you look nothing like your pictures except for the fact that people can tell itâs you, itâs considered lying. I know, I knowâŚgirls will take their best angled shots and make themselves look like theyâre 120 pounds when in fact theyâre 190, lol, but donât do it.Â
It doesnât look good if itâs 2012 and your picture says 2005 in the corner even if you look the same, people are going to think, âDoes he not go out or have a social life?â If you donât have recent photos of yourself take your camera with you for the next month everywhere you go and if you donât have a camera BARROW ONE. You want recent photos of yourself!
The reason that quality photos are important is so that girls can actually see you in the picture. Having fuzzy or too digital looking of a picture wonât help them see you and it will make them skip looking at the rest of your profile. A lot of the online dating sites turn your picture into a thumbnail and when girls are browsing and hunting for guys, a fuzzy picture will look even more blurry when smaller.
If youâre into going out bar hopping or clubbing or only go when friends invite you, there are photographers that take pictures for the venue and promoters, donât think twice about not stopping them and having them take a picture of you and your friends doing fun and silly poses. THATâS WHAT THEYRE PAID TO DO, take photos of the crowd having fun. Usually theyâll hand you a card with the website you can find your photos at and the quality of their pictures are great since theyâre using top of the line cameras.
Not all, but a lot of guys will barely put any photos of themselves up and it doesnât help you one bit. You got to think that Online Dating is like window shopping, the more pictures you have to look at and if theyâre all cool and of quality the better your chances are of her hitting you up or writing you back.
If you walked up to a store and saw some crappy display with some alright looking clothes hanging on a beat up manikin you wouldnât think to yourself, âMan Iâm so going into this store to grab some gear.â No, youâd think to yourself, âNEXT!â So keep that in mind when youâre uploading photos of yourself. Your pictures are the hooking point on getting her to read your profile and messaging you back.
You may be asking yourself why do I need pictures of me outside of my house? Let me explain. You want to show women that you have an interesting and fun life and if all your pictures are taken from your webcam at your desk inside your room, she might think, âDoes he only play video games?â or âDoes he even have a job?â Everything about online dating is getting them hooked enough to get a date and you having pictures of you bar hopping, miniature golfing drunk, fishing on your boat, whatever it is, is whatâs going to help you out.
Women donât want to date guys with boring lives, thatâs probably the reason she left her ex-boyfriend in the first place. He didnât like going out or didnât have enough friends etc. etcâŚSo remember, have 5-7 pictures of you outside your house having fun and doing things with friends will look a lot better than having you just sitting around your house taking pictures of yourself in the mirror like this is MySpace 2004.Â
