Top 10 Online Dating Tips Every Guy Needs to Hear

(From a Woman Who’s Seen It All)

Women who look like me spend many hours on dating websites and hookup applications, where we encounter every possible type of match from excellent to terrible and everything in between. The following list contains essential online dating advice which will help you receive better matches and get meaningful responses for sexy casual relationships.

1. Use recent photos

Your appearance in person should match what your profile pictures show because showing up differently will destroy the connection immediately. Your profile photos should show your true appearance because we want honesty in our online interactions.

2. Ditch the group shots

Multiple dudes in every single photo on your profile makes me dismiss your profile because I will never figure out which one is you. Your face should appear clearly and confidently in your photos to avoid any confusion.

3. Write something in your bio

A blank profile makes people believe you are uninteresting and possibly fake while also showing you lack effort. A brief introduction of your personality or humor or relationship preferences in your bio will help me understand your intentions because an empty profile suggests deception.

4. Keep it clean, guys

The combination of an unmade bed, messes, and dirty bathroom selfies with laundry piles creates an instant turn-off. Women pay close attention to these small details, so if you cannot present yourself well in photos then we will doubt your ability to present yourself properly in person. Once you and the person you’ve been chatting with get to know each other a bit, then you can be naughty. Trust me it doesn’t take much time, but be respectful and flirty at first, then you can be naughty!

5. Don’t open with “Hey”

Your basic “hey” greeting makes you blend in with numerous other guys who use the same unoriginal approach. Your message should stand out from others by asking a playful question or making a witty remark or showing interest in something she has written in her profile.

6. Compliment Like You Mean It

Yes, women like compliments—but only when they feel genuine. Telling me I’m “hot” is lazy. Telling me my smile looks like trouble? Now that’s sexy. Make it specific, make it cheeky, and watch me light up on the other end of the screen.

7. Confidence > cockiness

A man who shows self-assurance attracts women but he must avoid crossing the boundary into arrogant behavior. Your confidence makes you attractive but claiming divine status as a womanizer will make you seem ridiculous to others.

8. Don’t Be Afraid to Tease

Flirting is basically verbal foreplay, and women love a man who knows how to tease without going overboard. If I say I love tacos, tell me you’ll take me out but only if I promise not to spill salsa on myself. It’s playful, it’s light, and it sets a sexy, fun tone.

9. Don’t be creepy

The line between flirting and “ew, block” behavior exists but most people fail to recognize it. A smile or style compliment is endearing but expressing interest in tying me up in your basement will get an immediate rejection. We understand the difference between appropriate and inappropriate behavior.

10. Know when to move it offline

The absence of video calls or in-person meetings for weeks will lead me to believe you lack commitment or authenticity. Take the initiative to propose the following step because endless waiting will only lead to disappointment.

Here are some great tips for when you want to start the convo!

Bonus Tip: How to Flirt Without Making Me Cringe

The key to successful online flirting involves using playful and lighthearted messages that avoid crossing into sleazy territory. You can start by playfully teasing me about something from my bio then send a wink emoji at the right moment 😉 or make a bold statement like “you seem like trouble and I find that attractive.” Your goal should be to create a smile on my face while showing me your confident personality. A phone-based smile from me indicates you have outperformed 90% of all men who use hookup applications.
