I hear a lot of guys complain that Tinder is difficult for the average guy. It isn't. We all know that girls swipe right or left on Tinder based on a 2 second glance at your first photo. Most of your first photos suck ass. How do I know? A bunch of you sent me your pics in a previous thread I made offering to retouch them, so I saw a bunch of examples.

If you are chad bod, seriously cut with visible abdominal muscles, then go for the shirtless mirror selfie.

As for everybody else,

-Wear a suit, stare into the distance like you're a Fortune 500 CEO being interviewed for a Forbes cover. All girls will see dollar signs. THIS SHOULD BE A PROFESSIONAL-QUALITY PHOTO for maximum results. Go pay a real photographer the hundred bucks. Tell them this is what you want. Do not look into the lens, it makes you look desperate. Do not smile. Thousand yard stare shows off your manly jawline. http://static1.squarespace.com/static/52d2ebb3e4b06f22d60562c5/5459180ae4b0168a2765aad6/54592084e4b0d8d8aa3c5e20/1415127179969/Adam-Jacobs-Mens-Fashion-Photography-Model-Suit-Photography-Freddie.jpg

-Cute pet picture shirtless or wearing a t-shirt that "accidentally" shows off your biceps. You can smile at the pet in this one. Good conversation starter - cute dog, mine's named Rover, how about yours? http://imgfave-herokuapp-com.global.ssl.fastly.net/image_cache/1344082221598257.jpg

-Candid picture with friends - shows you're cool and hang out with hot people. The kind of company she will join if she fucks you. Even if these are your relatives, or an old photo, or strangers, it doesn't matter. http://thumb7.shutterstock.com/display_pic_with_logo/54809/54809,1307507475,1/stock-photo-group-of-young-people-enjoy-summer-party-at-the-beach-on-beautiful-sunset-78816610.jpg

-Preselection picture with hot girl(s), cropped as if to look like you tried to crop her out (but didn't). Don't use Hooters girls or promo models, it's obvious you just asked for a pic and will work against you. Needs to look like a normal hot girl who's actually into you. If you don't have one, literally just go up to any hot girl in a crowded bar and ask for a photo, "I'm trying to show my buddy who's at home what's he's missing ;) " THat move won't get you laid right then with that one girl, but you will use the pic to catch actual pussy later. http://thedudes.club/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/tom-ford-eyewear-2010-spring-campaign-1.jpg

-If you're 6'0 or taller, (really 5'10 or taller and DGAF about lying), the first line of your About Me should be your height. 6'0. On a line by itself.

These four photos, correctly lit and shot to make you look attractive, will get you matches on Tinder and get you laid, almost regardless of what you look like. I've done it for myself and for all my divorced friends and I get laid all the time from Tinder. I'm probably a 5/10 in the face but an 8/10 in the body.
