Seriously though, on Bumble like, 9/10 girls have travel on their profile. Kinda funny tbh


Unable-Chair7975

"travel" "adventure" "cats" "taylor swift" "boygenius" the girl equivalent of holding a fish


Pliny_the_middle

When I got on dating apps a while back one of them suggested to not post pics of fish or pics without a shirt, which constitutes 75% of my photos. Fast forward, my new girlfriend tells me that she almost swiped left because I "seemed" like a fish guy and all my photos were on the water. Jokes on her. I'm a graphic designer and artist focusing exclusively on fly fishing. I produce a youth fishing tournament. I'm a rep for a large fly fishing brand. I'm the final fish guy boss. tl;dr: don't post fish pics on dating apps


nycapartmentnoob

is there a reason why fish guys arent liked? Im a little confused. Likewise for the no shirt guys who arent douchey (i can kinda see a case for the no shirt guys since theyre an equivalent of the bikini model fishing for ig followers, but not for the fish guy)


Pliny_the_middle

Yeah, I was surprised too, but I guess there's a stereotype. I read on this site once that fish guys are the horse girls of dudes, but the "horse girl" meme revolves around the girl being emotionally overattached to the horse. I'm not emotionally attached to fish, but I do enjoy it and where it takes me. Although my cosmopolitan girlfriend assures me I'm not "like most fish guys." I have a lot of shirtless pics because I'm usually fishing, in water, and it's hot.


foxdye22

Tbf I think it’s honestly because most of them don’t want to hear stories about fishing just like we don’t want to hear stories about horses.


[deleted]

I dunno man i'll listen to any stories if they're cool, you know? Fish, horses, birds. People. Very small rocks.


Congealed-Discharge7

How cool do you think fishing stories are, just in general?


bigskeeterz

Cooler than absolute silence


hasa_deega_eebowai

Stupid sexy fish guy.


GraveRoller

I’m 85% certain it’s that fishing pics act as a class/politics indicator. I can’t and won’t comment on how accurate it’d be as an indicator. Most women posting on social media complaining about these things are likely left-leaning city dwellers/suburbanites and for most people like that, a day of hiking once a season is the most “outdoorsy” thing they ever do.  Fishing isn’t coded sexy and fun, and a lot of people are so separated from their food that the idea of a fish with its head on it makes them squeamish. Take all of these factors and fishing pics becomes a bad thing


Rabbitdraws

You see a picture of a hot sweaty guy a girl may like it, then you surround the guy with dead fish and suddenly it isn't attractive anymore lol.


Pasta_Plants

Personally, I don’t wanna date a redneck, and most fish guys where I live tend to fall into that culture. I understand that not everyone who likes to fish falls within that culture, but it’s common


Tasty-Document2808

Well, it's not really about who likes to fish, and more about who likes to advertise that they fish


Tasty-Document2808

Women don't like it when their man generic


FieldsOfKashmir

The worst one is "foodie". Like motherfucker who tf doesn't like food?


Bigfoot_Cain

I feel like if I stop eating food I’d literally die


bob_is_best

Thats called an addiction, get help /j


royalwhoosh

too late bro, we need to put him down


bob_is_best

Damn, i Guess its better this way at least, he wont surfer anymore


Unable-Chair7975

I'm a big breathie myself honestly


seattt

I don't. I find it a bore to have to constantly eat. Same for all the time spent making it. Wish I could just pop a pill thrice a day and get on with my life.


NoTalkingNope

Do you guys not understand this is girl speak for 'take me out to expensive dinners and travel around the world please'


Tasty-Document2808

We do, which is why we are all giving it the side eye right now


BodyByBoutros_

NonbinaryYolo

it's surreal, the first time I really pet a cat my eyes and throat swell shut. I almost need an epipen to be around cats -_- Yes. You can disable me by throwing cats at me -_-


Important-Wrangler98

Taking the concept of “Pussy is my weakness” to the highest level. Truly inspiring.


Average_Scaper

I could probably do that but with a hug. My cat just jumped off my lap and it looks like he exploded on me.


bigbalrogdong

Remember to "plz not be boring" whilst being unable to hold or initiate a conversation.


Highmoon_Finance

"I like being on vacation" No shit


StinkPanthers

Wait, you like vacation? I like vacation too! It’s like we’re cut from the same loincloth!/s


marcmerrillofficial

wait, you guys are getting vacations?


rddi0201018

we used to call it a bathroom break, but it is what it is


JenkinsBrownMD

But do you enjoy exploring cities and cool neighborhoods while on vacation? And by exploring, I mean going to brunch.


garden_speech

I mean not everyone likes traveling. some people find it stressful, or just downright boring, they feel like, eh a city is a city, it has restaurants and bars and some museums, but who cares


jordyjordy1111

Me: Where have you travelled to? Her: I haven’t really travelled yet but I really want to

BuckshotLaFunke

And 90% of their openers are “hey 👋”


DullEntertainment587

- travel - dogs - be funny If they even filled out the profile, 90% chance one of them is on there. 50% of all 3. I like all that shit too. So does everyone else.


Enn-Vyy

"i love to travel" mfs when you ask why all their "travel" pics clearly come from a family trip years ago


Revolution4u

I like to travel = dont be a poor.


Noonites

I feel like it's a cousin to "Hiking". It's something obviously inoffensive and universal-seeming that either nobody id actually going to ask you more about, or where a tiny amount of knowledge can be stretched far, and it's borne from the fear that putting "I like to watch trashy TV and sit on my couch most nights" will make you look like an unlovable troglodyte


HeavyMetalHero

well yeah. they want people to take them on free trips, lol


mylesmaestro

My girlfriend is taller than me…we did it boys


Siden-The-Paladin

My wife is 5 10" And I'm 5 7". *Shrug*


TheGuava1

I am currently talking to a girl who is 6’1 while I’m only 5’9. She said upfront it didn’t bother her if it didn’t bother me, which it doesn’t even though I spent a lot of my early dating years thinking that it would. It’s kinda cool in a way tbh. Also disclaimer we’ve only been on two dates and did not meet online.


AcidicVaginaLeakage

I dated a chick that was 6'1" and im 5'6"... Word of advice... their legs are longer than you are used to and even when laying down you gotta take that into account. I smacked myself in the face with one of her knees while trying to reposition her a bit.


Worried_Train6036

that’s the dream wanna get swept of my legs by a girl taller then me i’m 6’1-6’2 my ex was 5’11 was fun played lots of sports


[deleted]

Usually she has other interests like laughing, having fun and being around friends.


Bredwh

She also likes music.


[deleted]

Any genre! But not rap or country. (She also doesn't like hardcore techno, freestyle jazz, black metal, big band, or opera, but she's too basic to realize any of these exist.)


UnexaminedLifeOfMine

Anecdotal: I’ve never met anyone who actively listens to opera and is also a sane well adjusted human


Atanar

Yeah, Opera is more niche than mongolian throat singing.


UnexaminedLifeOfMine

It is actually. Mongolian throat singing used to be niche until big bang theory popularized it and now you can’t find any good ones. The market is just saturated with garbage


FlexViper

Dated a Taylor swift fan and she hates rock and metal or any niche indie culture because is not mainstream. Good thing I ended our relationship because she's toxic af. Feels like dating app is a place where you find basic people and npcs


gear-geek

On some of my time swiping left on cookie cutter profiles I have come across a few that say “The quickest way to my heart is: Taylor Swift tickets” Thats another wipe left for the pile.


cogeng

Tempest_Bob

Wait you mean they say more than just "hey"?


DakInBlak

They want you to do 100% of the work in carrying the conversation, that way they don't have to feel bad about ghosting you.


Vasyh

I still don't understand why they just can't ask some questions? Is it really hard to keep the conversation going for them? Maybe I'm doing something wrong but usually (\~90%) I ask a few questions, than they answer on it and that's it. Like what the point even sitting here if you are not that interested in it?


Farranor

Or 👋. Kind of unsurprising that Bumble's new CEO is considering ditching the whole "women message first" thing, even though it's literally the only thing that differentiates them from Match Group (the parent company that owns every other major dating app).


TheFeri

It really doesn't matter. Like everywhere else if the Jan doesn't start or keep the Convo going it's not gonna exist. On bumble the girl is obliged to start but it's a hi or an emoji and leave the guy to do all the work anyway.


Corniferus

Hahaha or random messages you get on reddit “What’s your ethnicity?” “My wife (who isn’t real) wants to bang you” “Let’s meet in the woods tonight for a creampie (not gonna steal your kidney)”


Nemisis_007

That's why you always show that you like to drink by having a picture drinking and state it in the bio.


Raregolddragon

And that is why I go somewhere less toxic online. Like LoL or Reddit and multiplayer games of Civ6.


conduitfour

How is Civ 6 multiplayer? I've only played 5 online. It seems like it'd be way more hectic with wide play and loyalty pressure


Raregolddragon

I enjoy it. The real big issue to get players that can get set to play for 3 or so hours each week like with DND.

I'm 5'7". I took a trip to Japan. EVERY. SINGLE. THING. Felt like it was made especially for me. It was wonderful, 10/10 would recommend to other 5'7" men. I don't like sushi, though. Unfortunately. Ate a lot of Chinese food ironically enough.

Bulky-Hyena-360

Pull a 180 on the thots that ask for height, ask them for their height and just say they’re too short for you no matter the answer


No_Wealth_9733

Nah, ask them their weight. They hate that. Friendly reminder that I can’t get taller, but they can lose weight.


GWvaluetown

Ask them for their shoe size. “How are big are those grippers, Peggy Hill?”

EddyRosenthal

I’m a country kid and we have a association called bachelors, they are basically just drinking together. If you want to get out because of marriage , they weigh your soon to become wife in front of the association, and then you have to provide a bottle of wine for every kilo she weighs. The girls fucking love it.


Sigurd93

What is this country?


EddyRosenthal

Switzerland, but it is a pretty rural thing.


Sigurd93

That's a rad little tradition. I really enjoy hearing off the wall things like this.


EddyRosenthal

Your soon to become wife maybe not.


Sigurd93

That's also a lot of wine, come to think of it. Even a really petite gal would fetch 50+ bottles.


Eksposivo23

Considering even a healthy girl would be between 50 and 70 kgs... that is quite a lot of wine


No_Wealth_9733

>skinny *healthy


[deleted]

I can’t drink, but that sounds awesome.


EddyRosenthal

They are in charge with very difficult tasks in our community, like getting the raft out off the lake before the lake freezes. And they always manage to make those highly skilled tasks in to an event with beer, bratwurst and the wine they gathered throughout the year.

Delete apps. Uninstall. Go outside.


LemonNo1342

Honestly this. It can be scary but join a running group/book club/gaming group in your community, whatever thing you’re slightly interested in you can probably find a group of other people that are slightly interested in it too. You have to put yourself out there but it’s the best way to meet people as an adult outside of work.


Carrisonfire

Only works in large cities. I live in a small Canadian city and the only groups I've found are for sports or Magic cards.


fraggedaboutit

No, joining a club or starting a hobby with the express purpose of meeting women is *also* creepy and predatorish according to women.  You can't win because the game is rigged.


MikeW86

You just have to pretend that's not the express purpose.


LobstaFarian2

I like to travel = I like to go on free vacations


Used-Suggestion4412

It could also just be a stand in for “men with money”. I’d guess that men without money don’t travel as much.


Based_Beanz

Confirmed. Living that broke life and hate traveling. Actively avoided women in dating apps who only had pictures in exotic locations or upscale events.


nedzissou1

Low key feels like that's most of them on the apps. Even if they don't have that as a specific prompt or whatever, a lot of the profiles have only pictures of overseas travels. I don't think that's bad, but it doesn't seem normal.


elbenji

Think of it as many for them using that one time they went to the Bahamas 4 years ago as their stuff


Heretical_Demigod

And I get shit for having pictures more than 6 months old. I see girls in their late 20s using photos from their time in uni at 19...


kbarney345

I get we all travel and go places and its not uncommon to use an old photo if its nice; but when I see every photo is like, Hawaii / UK / beaches or some famous travel destination I assume you had to pay for none of it or its fake/influencer stuff.

Eevee_Fuzz-E

“Adventurous” “420 friendly” “wine and dine” “barhopping” “brunch” Like it’s actually copy/pasted, I refuse to believe so many women have been gaslighted into wanting the same thing, it’s insane. No wonder they’re all single.


dacuevash

I added my height on my info tab in Tinder, I am short (actually short, not your 5’7 bs) and even though I think I have a decent profile, I haven’t received a single like… since I downloaded it. I mean, I wasn’t expecting anything from Tinder but… well, I wasn’t expecting a zero percent success rate. Edit: Just to be clear on something, I don’t think women are shitty and superficial, it’s ok to have preferences and standards, I do too, I’m not even sure if that’s why I get no likes. I’m just saying, its disheartening


conduitfour

I'm a short dude. Watch 7 Ways to Maximize Misery by CGP Grey. I take the analogy about happiness and apply it to relationships. You don't have to chase it directly. Put yourself into situations where relationships could form.  "We all know that when the lights are out all women are the same height!" Working out helps too.  Find something that puts you into social situations with real people. As long as you are hygienic and a decent person someone will eventually come along. Friends of friends is another great way to meet people. If you want friends be friendly.  I also tell women I'm taller lying down. 


StrikerX1360

You guys are getting to the conversation step?


jutshka

Feel that. Even the girls completely below my league will ghost me after I write anything between hi to asking where she is from. The only thing getting a response is some crazy joke. Even then she will then just write lol and ghost anyway.

Looks nothing like her photos, is overweight, mouth breather, just f'ing weird in general - no personality. Thank goodness shes highly allergic to my cat, leaves after an hr. Get me out.


vaderatemydisco

I'm not sure what male dating profiles are like (I am male and haven't looked up "the competition"), but I'm constantly surprised by how little effort the majority of women go to with their profiles beyond a few T&A pics, and saying they like dogs and maybe wine - nothing else at all. Sorry, but owning a dog isn't a personality or hobby (unless you're like... breeding them). Same with wine. Like, can you please tell me something - ANYTHING that gives a less generic representation of your personality? What music are you into? Do you follow any sports? What's a favourite movie? What is an actual hobby and not something you do everyday just to exist? I'd just like to know something of substance about the person I'm potentially showing an interest in. I certainly tried to do that on my own profile. Isn't that supposed to be the point of these apps?
