So I've been hearing mixed opinions about using more than 5 pictures.. Some people say it's extremely tryhard to use more (a chain is only as strong as its weakest link) others say it's not. What's your opinion on me using 8 pictures? I feel like the Shirtless selfie even though it's a selfie makes me look more real because it's not "perfect" or professional, besides I'm not flexing so it's less tryhard as well. I just like the 8th because it could be out of a movie and I look badass (it's the fav. Pic of some girls), the 3rd because it makes me seem responsible and just has a nice vibe, the 5th because it's the only one I'm smiling in, it's social, shows girls can be themselves around me and that I'm easy going. Some German coach said I should remove 3, 5, 6 and 8 but I definitely disagree with that as that would make me look quite boring and kinda one dimensional. No way to come across as tryhard with 4 pictures but that's not painting a story of an attractive, dominant successful man with multiple facets. Also I actually think all of my pictures are different from each other and none is actually "a weak link". His reasoning: Do you think that a guy who is super popular in real life will spend hours building his Tinder profile? Will he carefully browse through all his photos and then select 9 to prove his worth? Fuck no. You can tell a captivating story about yourself in 4 or 5 photos. Look, if you can’t convince her in 4 photos, you probably won’t convince her in 9. What’s more likely is that something in your 9 photos puts her off. Retain some mystery in your profile. Don’t fall for the tryhard-trap by posting too many pictures.

I have a habit of overthinking but all in all I'm trying to understand the why's of your answers, not just the surface level but deeper down why it is that you're thinking that a certain bio for example isn't good :) you're right I shouldn't think too deep
Why don't you think that the bio is a good way to filter out the women who just want a relationship?

Sometimes there is no deeper meaning, the bio you proposed simply doesn't sound good and will turn a lot of girls off. You have to think more of how to show this without explicitly saying it. A girl doesn't want to just hear she's coming to your place to bang right? You would be better off telling her it's for wine or to listen to music then make your move from there even though she knows what's up. It's the same thing with this bio, girls can't be hit right in the face with the truth you need to dance around it elegantly to get your desired result. This bio doesn't dance around anything, it's just straightforward and fairly crude and makes you look a little ego-centric and douchey.

I understand it now and you're completely right, thanks for explaining this to me!
