TOPIC: online dating log. Dog Pics.

Went down to my farm and got some pics that show I have a life / I'm not a robot. If you guys could rate my pics and tell me which ones I should use that would be great.

Please note I'm going for "Universal Appeal" as I've only been on 2 dates in my entire life and need practise.

This is my profile so far - A few mutual matches with decent girls but manifested in 0 dates, lot's of ignored messages.

I will still be looking to get a better head shot + shirtless pic once I'm ripped and have better style.

Online Dating Log

This thread will be my online dating Log. I did some research and realised that PoF isn't even the most popular online dating site in my country.

So I will hit up Oasis, RSVP, PoF and Tinder for maximum results, I might even have different pics on each one just to see which performs best.

EDIT:

this shit is giving me a headache - I've started with the smiling headshot - I probably have too many smiling pics and not enough looking like a scum-bag.

Lol... "Nice Guy" T_T what do I do.

The smiling headshot would probably work if you were wearing a better shirt in it & put it in black and white with higher contrast.

The third and fourth body shots are cool but I'd suggest cropping them so you're actually the focus of the picture.

The axe one I'd most likely find creepy if I was a chick. Get a relatively close shot of you hitting a tree with the axe, like right as it makes impact. Hard to do but I bet it would look badass.

Not a fan of the dog pics. They would be 1000x better imo if you weren't shirtless.

Car pic won't work because the subject is the car itself and not you. Doesn't look natural either. Maybe get a pic sitting on the hood from the front on an angle. Enough of the car in the shot that you can see that it's nice and newer but you still want yourself to be the focus.

Bike helmet picture is cool. I know you know better than to use the shirtless selfie though.

So all in all
The concepts of the pictures are good.
Your lighting looks good in all of them, even the selfies.
Would just work on the things I mentioned. You have the potential for some really really great pictures if you do.

The effort you're putting in is really great as well. I can tell you're pretty dedicated to getting this right.

P.S. Don't let that comment get to you. I nearly lost my shit when I first started online cuz some girl called me "adorable". Go fuck her senseless, she won't think youre such a "nice guy" then

Seconding that you shouldn't care about being "nice guy" if you're going for universal appeal. Girls will go on dates with the "nice guy"

True thanks for the comments guys. Ive been opened by 5 girls already the only problem is theyre all 5/10. I might give some of them a go.

I wonder if BF material only attracts those lower tier girls who cant get a BF. Where as the hot ones definitely give off a sluttier vibe

I know chris says lower your standards I'm just wondering by how much?!?!?

Jake I will make those changes.

imo, until you'd actually be embarrassed to be seen around her, just get her on the date. 1) If you don't give a shit about the girl at all, the whole point of the date can be getting used to how dates work (I was pretty nervous for my first few, not so much after that). 2) It's a huge confidence boost to go on a date with a girl and then think "I deserve better" and drop them from your life after that.

THIS!!!

I think it was Roosh that said once: If a girl passes the boner test, go for it. Hot is nice, but an average girl who is totally into you as a guy, and is even ready to pounce on you and fuck you silly is 10x better than a hot girl who has very little interest.

If anything, it gets you used to dating at least, but you might actually find a good girl to date (although I highly doubt it on a dating site)

Alright - I havent even been on a sigle date so it cannot hurt. If they reasonably thin I'll give then a go.

@BigVik. This is true, I need to get a life - part of the problem is not owning a decent camera + not having many friends after me and my ex broke up. There are a group a guys at uni that are all designers with pro cameras and just take picture of each other 24/7. One guy is killing tinder 14 lays in 4 months, he was a virgin before he got on tinder, he's probably 30+ by now.

This is now my online dating log.

Getting a lot more responses, opened my inbox to 5 new messages which is a first. I'm lowering my standards to like 5.5/10. I figure if they thin and give good head who cares. Still can't get a 7 to message me back though. Current PoF:

www.pof.com/viewprofile.aspx?profile_id=122915101

I actually haven't done a blitz, just getting opened by girls and matches. For some reason I don't want to start Tinder until I have really good pics. Still going to go to a friends place with pro camera, just need to find a cool/edgy/stylish outfit. (gettn closer everyday)

Oasis looks like a Piece of Shit. Will try RSVP it seems popular in Aus.

As for AA...

Yea I got to day 9 before spiralling into a crazy depression and staying in bed for 3 days - had to see my family to just snap out of it. Going to get a blood test for thyroid / low testosterone. I think I need daily mood enhancers. I'd love to beat the AA and still have it as a goal but I think some kind of regular dates or even a low quality FB would make it doable. Chris says Online dating is an important part of the AA, and for that reason I need to get it into some kind of order. Also to stop wearing clothes that a 5 yr old wears. Actually a guy yesterday said "you've lost heaps of weight, you're looking fresh as well man, like a whole new person". That made me feel pretty good.

The only girl I ever went out with off POF had garbage pictures and I almost ignored her. Turns out she was significantly more attractive in person.

Go for the 5's.

If she doesn't have a fucked up face/body why not try to fuck her?

@jake this is true. I just got back from my first date. Coffee in the park - talked for over an hour.
I wasn't that sexually attracted to her so I did not escalate but it was actually really nice to have someone to talk to. She is a maths teacher. Hell I'd even go on dates for the conversation.

She was more attractive in person though, but no I was not sexually attracted to her. Still she said she doesn't do relationships and I think I was significantly more attractive than her - basically she would be easy, I might try get a blowjob.

I can see better why PoF helps with AA. She wanted to be there, and thanked me for getting coffee with her. That's a nice feeling. My confidence is already higher even if she wasn't super attractive.

If I can get 1-2 dates per week it would make the AA a lot easier.

Went on a date already? Sick brah.

What are you doing as far as messaging if you're not doing blitzes? Talking to girls who opened your profile?
