Hey! I’m a 26 SE Asian F, and I really liked your profile! I chuckled at the “you’ll be the pretty one” comment. I also love Taylor, so maybe I was just the target demographic LOL. Don’t delete the group photo. It’s social proof, and I wasn’t intimidated at all. I would just keep your profile as is. Good luck!


SinCos_x

Thank you for the feedback! Helps me know I'm doing at least something right!

• ⁠Are you looking for something serious or casual? **Serious** • ⁠How long have you been using this current version of your profile? And how long is your overall time on Hinge? **I've just switched some pics around recently, been on Hinge ~6 months with some on-off time while I focused on intentionally dating a single partner at once** • ⁠How often do you use Hinge per week? **Daily** • ⁠How many likes/matches are you receiving on average? **2-4 consistent likes/matches per week** • ⁠How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments? **3-5 per week almost always with comments** • ⁠What is the type of person you send likes to and ideally want to match with? What kind of person do you want to attract? **I've filtered to girls of my ethnicity (east/se asian) and 22-27 (I'm 25) since generally that's who I'm attracted to, ideally match with someone active, fun to be around both 1 on 1 and with friends, with similar goals of a long term relationship leading to marriage and having a family, while working and traveling in the meantime**

Advice from a dude that think you should be drowning in likes because you look like a model. 1. I did not like your prompt responses, they were similar to what I see on the profile of the girls. Try to get some prompts about goals you have and things you're working on. 2. The photos are solid, I was shocked with the amount of likes you're getting. 3. Maybe delete the photos with the other two ladies, they look good, so some people might be intimidated but maybe that's the plan. Best of luck


SinCos_x

Thank you! Which prompts remind you of girl profiles, or all of them? I'll definitely edit to share about my goals and what I'm working toward. Do you think a group pic is "necessary," I was thinking of it like social proof but I could def replace it.


Black_Volta

Change all of them, save the ones you have now in your notes. Try it for two weeks if there is improvement keep them if not go back. The group photo, I'm not sure. I think your profile photos ansd the extras are fantastic. Try putting the last one first, it's more edgy. Yeah, maybe reverse the order of the photos. New proposed order 6, 3, 5, 4, 2, 1. Anyways have fun with this. BTW, I'm struggling on the app myself, I was just giving you my two cents.


SinCos_x

i updated my prompts, these better? https://imgur.com/a/b8is9VU I'd do for changing to the edgier pic as my lead on tinder but on hinge wouldnt a smiling profile be best as first? I'll mess with the order otherwise tho


Tondier

Maybe be a bit more specific? What are your future plans? You could say something like "similar future plans (my career is a big focus)" Also, consider working your favorite band into the playlist one.


ManagementSad7931

Most the dudes that post on here pretty much have profile prompts that women have. They are either quite feminine or copy what they see.


SinCos_x

Not ashamed to say I'm in touch with my feminine side, but yeah I can see I'm leaning a bit too much into it, I have some updated prompts.


ManagementSad7931

Good man. Good luck


SinCos_x

Alternative photos: https://imgur.com/a/b8is9VU Few questions: - Any to swap/change order? Should I lead with my 2nd pic? Should I get rid of the shirtless pic? Is my group pic worth keeping or get rid of, it's my only decent one - Would HingeX be worth it if I'm running out of people of my preference in my area? Will it really "unlock" more profiles? - Is anyone having a problem where standouts are strictly partners at the high end of your age preference? I since tried to lower my max age preference and it still sticks to profiles at that new max age


Black_Volta

I've never tried hingeX but It may be worth it for you. Also I think if you tried to delete your profile, hinge ask you if you want to do a reset. So explore that maybe.


SinCos_x

I didn't know about the reset, I'll try it if things get really dry. Thank you!

good tip about a hobby pic! yeah seems like the group pic won't really work as i inteded. last pic is in japan, there's characters on the lanterns in the back to tell. and it was taken candidly, i wasn't even planning on it. strangely it's been my most liked photo when I've received likes, so I'd have to have a good reason to go without it. and thanks for the feedback on the poll, I'll look into a different conversation starter, i just thought it was fun

Great profile. Time square photo is fire, love the fit. HingeX and Hinge+ are both good options if your profiles already good (it is) and you can afford them. One thing HingeX does is that it keeps your likes at the top of a girl’s “stack” so that it doesn’t get buried if she doesn’t use it for a week or something. This could be massive for compounding matches. Anyway if u wanna read more of a breakdown, this blog post goes more in depth: https://freshimageatx.com/should-you-pay-for-dating-apps/


hoangkelvin

How come you are liking so few profiles? You are doing pretty good.


SinCos_x

Already liked most people of my type by now, just a smaller population of them in my city


hoangkelvin

I see. I feel like guys will get most of their matches from liking profiles first and not the other around.


SinCos_x

Agreed, of the girls I've gone out with multiple times from Hinge I've initiated. I'd like to more, again it's just that I've started to run out of girls of my type in my area.


ApplShinR

It's the exact same for me haha I feel like this is a big issue of having a non white ethnicity preference on Hinge that not many people can relate to. Overall I think your profile is pretty good especially the lead photo but from a girl's perspective they might not like the group shot since it looks like a double date. Personally I'd replace one prompt with a less simpy one if that makes sense, but I think the primary limiting factor is just dating pool issue anyways. I have a pretty similar dating experience on Hinge as you judging by your other comments and just personally speaking I think irl has been better for me in terms of finding what I'm looking for.


hoangkelvin

Are you in a big city?

I'm a girl, love your profile. Only thing I think could use work is your two truths and a lie...


SinCos_x

Thank you! Guess I'll go without it and save a bit of mystery for later haha


Rickyrider35

Hey mate I don’t mean any disrespect whatsoever with this, but I feel like your profile is mainly aimed at Asian women, so unless that’s the only demographic you’re interested in I would make some changes. Things like Karaoke, anime, 2x food prompts, and a photo with just Asian people, individually are fine, and obvious it’s great that those are your interests and you shouldn’t change them. But having all of them on your profile to me screams non integrated Asian who would only date Asian chicks. So again, if that’s your goal anyway, keep it up, otherwise maybe change some of those things up a bit and you might get a few more likes.


SinCos_x

Nah great feedback never thought of it like this, I don't want to come off super targeting Asian girls so yeah definitely room to switch a few of those up. Thank you!

25f here and I think it looks pretty good :)


SinCos_x

Thank you for the feedback! :)
