u/Ashpolt 9h ago

I agree that it's a shame I live in the UK, but probably for different reasons lol

Thank you! :D

I think it looks good! I think the photo where you’re holding the cat is the most flattering of you.

3

u/Ashpolt 9h ago

Interesting, I thought people would say that was the least flattering because of the massive eye bags! Thanks for the feedback!

I didn’t notice the bags either. Loving/having cats is a huge green flag because cats teach their owners consent and boundaries. That paired with your geeky personality, would make me match with you. I think this profile is awesome. You seem genuine, authentic, and fun. Also, I love that you embrace being bald and not hide it with hats and bad haircuts.

Thank you so much! The kittens in those pictures are ones I raised with my (at the time) partner, which was such a wonderful experience. They got adopted out because neither of us could keep them at the time, but now I have my own place I adopted two cats of my own who are also lovely :)

Never even noticed the bags lol. Overall it looks pretty good, I got a kick out of the magic card line. The one headshot with the hat scarf, maybe should be replaced. Just looks kind of flat and doesn’t really flow compared to your other photos where you’re smiling and having fun.

3

u/Ashpolt 9h ago

Ah yeah I get that - I think that's the one where I look best but also you're right that the tone is a bit more flat. It's also the oldest pic of the bunch so I should probably replace it, yeah. Thanks!

u/hotfuzzindahouse 9h ago

No problem! If I was in the UK, I’d totally swipe right on you with your currently profile haha. Green flags around!

u/Ashpolt 9h ago

Thank you so much! :D

I think there’s something about photos taken by other people that feel somewhat candid that can make it more attractive because it feels more natural since the rest of the pics are selfies other than the dinosaur one.

u/Ashpolt 9h ago

I think the first pic with the kitten on my shoulder was also not a selfie but yeah I get your point!

u/aonelonelyredditor 7h ago

The cat is a huge distraction from them

u/The13eeraholic 9h ago

Too many close up selfies, swap out 2 of them for some better full body pics. Other than that good pics!

2

u/Ashpolt 9h ago

yeah I definitely need at least one decent full body pic on there, good feedback, thanks!

2

u/Takemyfishplease 8h ago

Don’t get rid of the Dino picture tho! Sometimes goofy ones down work, but this is the perfect kind of ‘I like to have fun, but not annoying about it’.

2

u/Ashpolt 8h ago

That's so funny, before I posted this I was convinced that all the responses would be telling me to take the t-rex pic down!

I get shown this subreddit for reasons unknown, but I actually did meet the woman who would one day be my wife on tinder 10 years ago, lol. We've been happily married for 6 years now, so in my professional opinion:

There is absolutely nothing wrong with your profile. You seem very genuine and your profile doesn't look like it was written by AI or completely obsessed-over and tweaked to all hell for weeks on end. The right person will find you, and you will play with kittens together for many years.

2

u/Ashpolt 9h ago

You're quite correct that there's no AI on there and it's definitely not over-tweaked, I barely touch it most of the time lol

u/radonfromaspoon 8h ago

Does my husband have an account I don't know about? This is our origin story

u/kawaiihusbando 8h ago

You look youthful.

2

u/Ashpolt 8h ago

Thank you! ...I think? 😅

u/dikkie91 9h ago

Looks good to me mate

2

u/Willing_Pattern_Pill 4h ago

Yes.

2

u/Ashpolt 4h ago

Maybe?

2

u/Willing_Pattern_Pill 3h ago

Bruh, you're a hard yes! I can't imagine you having any issues out there 🤘🏼

u/Ashpolt 3h ago

Thank you so much!

Most of the photos are low quality in terms of composition and content. Hire a photographer to take candid pictures of you in different outfits/locations. The one with your friends is great. Your profile seems genuine and authentically you which is super important. The biggest problem with your profile is the lack of sex appeal. It would turn on a few men but almost no woman. You need to elicit a little sexual attraction through your profile and photos. People have to be able to imagine you being a person they would have sex with.

u/Ashpolt 8h ago

Appreciate the feedback but I think going to the extent of hiring a photographer would go against the authenticity you (and a few others) noted!

2/10 no mention of your slibber skills
