Blurry or No Photos

Profiles without clear pictures often get skipped.

Blurry or missing photos reduce trust and make it seem like you’re not serious about dating.

Only Group Pictures

Group photos make it hard for others to figure out who you actually are.

Seeing too many group shots can feel like you’re trying to hide your real appearance.

One-Word Bios

Short bios like “hi” or “ask me” make your profile look uninterested and lazy.

Too Many Filters

Excessively edited photos create doubt because they don’t show the real you.

Negative or Rude Bio Statements

Harsh lines such as “no drama” or “don’t waste my time” make your profile feel unwelcoming.

Instantly Asking for Personal Details

Asking for phone numbers or social media too soon makes people feel unsafe.

Only Gym Pictures

Posting only workout photos can come off as self-obsessed or lacking personality.

Trying Too Hard to Be Funny

Forced jokes or cringe humour often feel unnatural and can push people away.
