Profile suggestions

GODLIKE5 - What you're finding out is that it may have been better to read up on this before coming and asking for help ;-) Had you done that, it may have prepared you for (or helped you avoid) some of the harsh sounding input you got so far.

Since the cat's already out of that bag, I'd suggest you check out the Generic Profile Advice thread and read that first, implement your changes based on that and any input here, then maybe come back and ask for people to review your changes, assuming you haven't been scared off ;-)

That said, you may want to do a support ticket and get your profile name changed. Regardless of how good your profile is, some will not even get that far due to your profile name. Yes, it is that off-putting to many.

As GGMM eluded to, this is not like a grocery store for sex where you just show up and have your pick of all these people that are looking for sex. People are here looking for sex, but you are going to find it way more difficult to navigate with that "grocery store" mentality than your local pickup bar. Online is usually way more difficult than in person meetings/events.

I will agree with everyone the profile name would have me pass would not matter if you were 22 or 52. A profile name should be fun, quirky, a play on words, or actually meaningful to the person which could be a conversation starter. Yours is an ego stroke. Your profile pic is awful even if you were showcasing abs - you can’t see them from the distance. Add pictures of you doing stuff that shows who you are. Your profile description isn’t terrible it’s just bare bones basic with nothing to make you stand out or sound interesting. All of these things are so easy to fix.

Your username would cause me to pass immediately. So many young guys think they are "godlike" when in reality the are very, very bad as lovers.

also your profile picture is an utter fail. What may work on Tinder doesn't work here. Put some effort into showing who YOU are as a person, not just some abs in a bathroom.

Hi. I hope you've read other threads in this section, because that will prepare you for the bluntness of Better Profiles. It's generally meant kindly, but it can feel harsh. And I'm telling you this because I'm going to be very harsh. I have a meeting in a few minutes, which means I don't have time for diplomacy, and also because I want to save you from some of your poor choices when it comes to women and that's not going to be easy.

Anyway, a 22 year old who refers to himself as GODLIKE has a big fucking hill to climb, because it's an eye roller of epic proportions. Seriously, dude, no. Just no. Here's something almost every woman knows: Men who tell you how goooood it's going to be are wrong. They're just walking dicks with no clue how sex with women works for women. No studies on why, but experience says guys are the reason most women don't orgasm the first time with a man. More do when their new partner is a woman.

As far as your profile, your bathroom selfie is uninspiring, so is your profile, your tagline in no way does its job, which is to entice people to open said profile, and you're 22. I've taken the occasional chance with a very young man, but they always have a great story and even better game. The general run of very young men is just bad at sex, which they mostly think is about pounding away as if they were a sewing machine.

If that's not you, if you're actually worth a woman shaving her legs, then come up with a profile that says something about you as a person, one who is interested in other people, not just in getting laid, because that you can get anywhere and women in the lifestyle are much pickier than women in your favorite club or bar.

So, less about sex, more about being human looking for other humans.

Good luck. I hope someone nicer comes along and gives you specific profile advice.

Obviously I can't give specific advice since you have single guys blocked, but a couple of things you might want to reconsider is your profile name, which is awful, and ditch the bathroom selfie, especially since you're standing way back from the mirror which makes it difficult to see you.

You mentioned age, and yes that's probably going to be a pretty big hurdle for you with many people. The lifestyle community tends to be older, sometimes MUCH older, depending on your area. Having said that, there's still a place in the lifestyle for younger single men, so don't be too discouraged. Keep in mind that the lifestyle isn't a shortcut to sex, the lifestyle is it's own thing, as an ADDITION to your normal social life. That's not everyone's view of the lifestyle of course, but that's the way to bet. As a younger guy, you'll probably run into folks who assume that you're just looking for that shortcut. Be aware of that, and proceed accordingly.

Lastly, read a lot of the other advice given here to other folks in the Better Profiles forum. A lot of that advice will apply to you as well, with a few tweeks here and there.

Good luck.

can someone please check my profile and give me some tips on how to make it better? I have more pictures in private. Not sure if it’s because I lack pictures, my profile sucks or it’s just my age that doesn’t get people’s attention. Lmk any feedback is appreciated, thanks!
