I have no shame. I had Tinder and was an avid fan. Though I recently deleted my account, I will not forget the déjà vu associated with the classic Tinder profiles I kept seeing. From all of my Tindering I have compiled a list of the most common Tinder boys waiting to match with you.
1. The guy with the shirtless mirror pic.
If basic girls wear leggings, Uggs, and drink PSLs, basic guys take shirtless mirror selfies. Honestly boys, can you not think of a better image to take of yourself.
2. Two further variations of the shirtless mirror pic.
These can often be seen combined or separate: the shot from a high angle with a “smolder” face or the crotch/belt buckle grab. For these two, all I can say is, smh.

3. The guy with the gym pic.
He needs to
emphasize the fact that he “lifts” and is always working on his “gains.”
4. The guy who is pictured with young children.
This in itself is quite puzzling. Are you a teen dad? Do you have younger siblings? Are you a manny? The possibilities are endless.
5. Pictures with another girl.
The other puzzling picture that guys somehow think will get them right swipes is when they are pictured with another girl. Why are you on Tinder if you have a girl? No, I will not join your bevy of babes.
6. Only a picture of his car.
Why do you do this? Who are you?!
7. The one where the majority of the picture is the dog.
I like dogs as much as the next girl, but come on. If Fido is center stage you are obviously hiding something.
8. The fishing pic.
Now I don’t know where you all are from but in the summer when I’m home in South Florida there is an exorbitant amount of guys pictured fishing, and their only other pictures are also fishing. Always the same outfit: camo bandana, reflective Oakley glasses, and a t-shirt. Fishing is super fun, but please try to diversify your activities.
Now you know these guys are waiting for you, all you have to do is swipe right. But after a while if you start to develop the same déjà vu I did, don't say you weren't warned.
