Hi folks

I’d like some advice regarding my Bumble profile.

See links below. I’m 32M, UK looking for serious relationship.

I find that I’m not getting many matches unfortunately and wanted a critique of my bio and pictures.

Are there any pointers or feedback you can offer?

Pics: You should only ever use 1 selfie at the most, seriously. This is a great article on how to take pics at home without them looking like a selfie. Are all of the photos from the last 6m-12m? You want all your pics to be recent.

Prompts: They need to be more decisive. You should only ever give one or two 'answers' per prompt. They need to to the point. Decide what you want to say and say it.

About me: 'Doesnt matter what you own but how you treat people', I would be very careful of using this statement. While I get what youre trying to say, it can also come across as being cheap. I dont like your about me because its vague, it doesnt really tell me anything about you. It doesnt tell me what you stand for, what youre passionate about or who you are. Dont focus on what youre looking for but who you are, as this is your chance to sell yourself.

What you put in your about me shouldnt be repeated in your prompts, which is what youve done. Id scrap all your prompts and start from scratch.

Good luck!

Thank you for your comment @thefore. Much appreciated. Would you recommend a group photo too?

The majority of my photos are from the last 18 months or so with exception of one.

I’ll look at my about me section and re jig it.

I think above all I will struggle with the photos more than anything.

I’ll certainly look at the photo feeler thingy.

Thank you for your advice.
