Profile Photos for Guys to Avoid #1: Don’t Treat Your Bathroom as a Photography Studio
In the advent of the smart phones being massively mainstream to where they are nearly ubiquitous means everyone has access to a digital camera at their finger tips. So guys came to think to themselves, “Hey, I need a photo for the dating site. I’ll take one right now!” And they think this is a brilliant idea.
Where is the nearest mirror in a guy’s apartment? Where else but the bathroom! They go into the bathroom, hold the camera up away from themselves at arm’s length standing in front of the bathroom mirror wearing what they are wearing right now, a loose shirt, untucked and jeans. Press the camera. Et voila! They’ve got a digital photo of themselves they can use right away. True. This is true. But is it a good choice photo for you to use of yourself? Allow me to tell you in one word.
No!
Guys, I cannot express this strongly enough to you that the bathroom mirror selfie picture is truly the #1 Profile Photos for Guys to Avoid bet noir to the ladies. Nothing unfortunately tells her inexplicably that you are not relationship ready and therefore NOT boyfriend material with no husband potential.
While I do recommend that you use a professional photographer for your primary photographs for the dating sites, I do expect that you have some candid shots which friends have snapped of you. Those candid pictures still need to be outside of your bathroom.
Profile Photos for Guys to Avoid Tip #2: Don’t Bare Your Chest – Keep your shirt on
And while you’re at it, put your clothes on. No, we do not want to see your bare chest reflected in your bathroom mirror. We have not even met you yet, for goodness sakes. Put your shirt on and get out of the bathroom.
While we’re at it, unfortunately, there are the bare chested selfies out there. Just they scream online that you’re not serious about a relationship, real love, and a girlfriend. Those bare chested photos speak a vivid testimony that what you are looking for is a hookup and not a husband. If that’s you, I’m wondering why you got this far in reading my article or even read anything at my website which is all about dating for courtship seeking life-long love relationships.
Great Dating Profile Photos Tip #3: Remember to smile
It seems that more of the guys are trying to emulate the scowling and brooding male models of GQ. While yes the male models are attractive and women find them hot, they are not going on dates with them. You, however, are hoping to get to hook her interest and get to meet her. So your profile photos do need to show you displaying your smile! Too many profiles that I see of the guys, their photos have no smiles. It is literally one of the first comments a single woman will make in her messages with you. “What, no smile? lol.”
Help the ladies out here by giving her your most engaging smile into the camera and posting those pix at the dating websites. Then she can gaze into your smiling eyes and start to develop her feelings of attraction to you. When she does that, you increase your chances of getting to the first date with her! And getting to the first date is The Goal of Internet Dating!
