1. Photos with girls.

I don’t know if this happens because you just don’t take photos of yourself, or if you actually think having photos with incredibly attractive women will influence my decision to swipe right on you.

2. “The Office” and “Rick and Morty” quotes (or any quotes, really).

Alright, I’ll try to tread lightly on this one, because I know this one could go either way. A lot of gals dig these shows, and for good reason; they are funny. I get it. You're just Jim Halpert looking for his Pam Beesly. And you may find her this way (meanwhile, I have already swiped left to look for a guy with some personality). But please please please quit with that Michael Scott/Wayne Gretzky quote. You know the one.

3. Excessive dog photos.

I adore dogs. Have two big ol' puppers of my own. But remember, this app is for humans. So unless your dog is going to be on our date, I don’t need to see more than one photo of him.

4. “I’m (insert height) since it matters.”

This is probably my biggest pet peeve on dating apps. I’ve seen this snarky little sentence tucked into so many otherwise great bios. Height matters to a lot of girls. If that really bothers you, don’t share your height (or maybe don’t date online). If you do share it, leave the second part of the sentence out. That way, it reads as “I am confident and happy with my height, but if you are not, you are free to swipe left, because I understand that just as I have preferences, you do as well, and I can respect that.” Confidence wins over height any day.

5. Shirtless mirror selfies.

If you need me to know about your six pack before I swipe, I guess this gets the job done. If you want to actually meet up though, it doesn’t make you seem all that charming or trustworthy.

6. Half-face photos (or photos hiding the rest of their bodies).

You only get about six photos to show me that you are a fun, confident, attractive, guy who has an exciting life. Use that to your advantage. You have nothing to hide, so don’t make it look like you do.

As with any other opinion piece, take this with a grain of salt. If these things work for you, then more power to you!
