The Biggest Dating App Turn Offs

Crafting a dating profile can be equal parts fun and nerve wracking. It can be hard to know what works on an app and what gives off the wrong impression. Here are some helpful tips provided by Elite Daily on how to improve your odds at getting more matches.

Think twice about which photos you're choosing. According to one woman, her red flags include pictures of men who aren't smiling, use screenshots off of snapchat, pictures with your ex (big yikes), and pictures of you and the fish you caught (bigger yikes). Another suggested avoiding too many mirror pics or professional headshots and opting for candid and casual photos instead.

A smile shows that you're personable, confident, and funny. Too many mirror pics can come off as arrogant and self-centered. Professional headshots can come off as a little fake and impersonal. Include pictures of you participating in some of your favorite hobbies. Pet pics are always a plus!

After 25, the frat bro pics aren't going to cut it. Too many pictures of you drinking, partying, or funneling bear generally isn't very attractive to most women. Also make sure your photos have a good mix of up close photos if you're going to choose outdoorsy pictures. While it's fun to see your adventurous side, women want to see what you look like up close as well.

Opt for a set of photos that range in activities. Your profile is a representation of who you are. Make sure you capture all the different aspects of your personality. I'd recommend one selfie, one candid enjoying a hobby, one with family or friends, and one involving something you're passionate about. Once again, if you have any pets, include one or two! Not only does everyone love pet pics, talking about your adorable dog is a great ice breaker.

Be honest about your height. If you use too many photos that obscure your height, you're putting yourself at a disadvantage. There are women that care about your height, but there's a lot of women that have love for short kings too! So be honest. Being upfront about being under 5'8 will filter out women who aren't meant for you and put you through to women that appreciate all you have to offer.

One women said that a man with too many photos with sunglasses on is an immediate pass for her. Pretty eyes are very attractive! Show them off!
