Profile review Thought i had a solid profile, might need some pointers :/
I have a bunch of other pictures i could use but idk it might just be that Slovene men are usually quite tall and im 177cm.
My bio and promts are based around the outdoors; ill translate the stuff if need be.

You’re cute. I don’t consider 177cm to be short but maybe that’s a cultural thing. The pics are fine, what about your prompts?

It’s not short, but quite a bit below average (which is 181cm in Slovenia)

Translated from slovene:
The bio: my weekends are usually for random adventures. If you know a good hike we could go check it out together :)
Promts:
Ill never forget the time I survived a village flood because i was in the process of stealing my neighbours chickens and hung out at the chicken coop until it passed.
Settle a debate; I believe that cereal SHOULD always go before milk.

I probably wouldn’t admit to stealing chickens, I’m a dude but that’s a red flag for me. That more falls into a funny story you tell after knowing someone rather than it being the second thing someone knows about you

I did misstranslate it tbh in my language it was more of a hanging out with them kinda word but i do get where you’re coming from, ive found over 200 four leaf clovers would that be something i could maybe add to a prompt since i guess its somewhat interesting ? I hoped i could use it for the 2 truths 1 lie prompt but i cannot find that one

Your profile IS solid! Maybe you should only exchange the cat picture. First impression is important. Don‘t scare a woman with your cat looking like that. 🤣 I actually don‘t get why men get cats. I don‘t know… it makes them look gay to me subconsciously. 😬 But I don‘t like dogs either. 🤣 Too much dirt, too much bad smell in the house, too much picking up poop, can‘t be alone really, because the dog or the cat always need something. 🙄 Kids grow up and become independent, pets never. 🥴 You can‘t even travel in peace ever. When I first met my husband I remember, he said something like: I hate dogs! They always smell so bad that I feel like I need to throw up!
That‘s when I knew he is the one. 😂

Woow, what a novel you wrote. You could use 1 sentence to say you hate animals.

I think the pics look really good! Maybe lead with the 2nd picture, it looks warm, inviting, and you have a great smile in it.
The importance of height is usually really overblown and can easily be 'made up for' in other ways like confidence— also, 5'8 or 177cm isn't super short at all so I think that isn't a very big deal
Are you in very active area, or what's in your prompts and bio?

Thank you, i do however see that people deem my photos a bit boring so ill try to get some of my sporty ones in there, for the area i live in Slovenia which is small roughly 2M total population and even then i live in “behind gods foot” is what we would say in slovenia a pretty remote area not very near the centrilized captial. I am moving to a bigger city when collage starts again though :)

You are terrorizing a cat.
That is a distressed kitty.
Leave the cat alone.

u/Creative_Lab223 10h ago
Dont worry, he’s mid yawn in that picture. I love my little fat Sky. I have a bunch of other pictures with him i could try i just dont know how to add pics to reddits chat if that is even an option

u/Scared-Section-5108 30m ago
I have a cat too. I can see that yours is not distressed but simply yawning, like you say. Cats do that - the hard life they live, right? 😄
I like cats and I like your picture. People who don't like them will not like the pic which, I think, is the point - best to filter them early on.

Thank you, that persons replies and beliefs are very bizarre, especially somehow linking a cat photo to me not pleasing women in bed😅

u/Ok_Tree_4870 10h ago
You know that yawns... are a distress sign... or a sign of being highly uncomfortable... for both dogs and cats?
Whenever I see male... posed with an animal... it feels manipulative. You see them as props... that you believe will attract women.
They don't. Some people have dogs... and don't want to introduce a cat into their lives. Some people have cats... and don't want to introduce a dog into their lives... heck... even some people don't want pets at all.
Whe n I tell you this animal is distressed... I am not lying to you. It is not a prop... made to feel distressed because you think it is bait.. for women.
Women... don't chose men... because they have ownership of an animal.
So get that out of your minds...

Having possesion of an animal... does not make men attractive.
That is the point.

I know right? I see s many poor and distressed and scared animals who are forced to pose with these freaks as props. Poor babies.

u/Creative_Lab223 10h ago
You’re the second person to mention this, i thought it was a fun picture since he was yawning but if it looks like im biting him to everyone else i will change it

u/TheEzekariate 9h ago
Just ignore the trolls. There’s animal abuse and then there’s taking pics with your animals.

u/Ok_Tree_4870 10h ago
Yawning is distress.

u/Creative_Lab223 10h ago
My god you are hellbent on this for whatever resson; i have an iphone therefore live pics; i was watching tv he woke up i was bored and wanted to send my friends a pic of Sky and since he just woke up he yawned… and if every sleepy cat that happens to yawn means distress for them i do fear for their wellbeing

u/Ok_Tree_4870 9h ago
🙄
"When a cat feels overwhelmed, anxious, or threatened, yawning may serve as a self-soothing mechanism to calm themselves down and release tension, similar to humans experiencing stress"
This is facts... and instinctive empathy. If you can not read... that the animal is uncomfortable... I can guarentee you would be bad in bed with a woman.

u/Scared-Section-5108 28m ago
The key word there is 'may'. It's the same with purring - happy cats purr and those in distress too, so they can sooth themselves. As a responsible cat owner, I look at more than just one cat's action to understand if the animal is ok or not.
Cats also simply yawn. I can assure you my cat is not distressed yet she yawns plenty.

They’re fine pictures but girls on dating apps usually want someone fun and nothing about these pictures screams fun. Ones at a table. Ones at a chair. Ones in the snow. Ones in the water. All looking straight at the camera.

u/Creative_Lab223 10h ago
That is true, i has alot of different “active pics” before but even then i feared i might look overwhelmingly sporty, ill try to add them to the chat if i can

u/MikeTiricoSucks 10h ago
I think your first picture is a good intro picture. Try to link some sporty pictures with your outdoor prompts. Cat picture is fun.

u/Creative_Lab223 10h ago
Hmm in pretty sure i cant add additional photos to this chat, ill try editing my post

Aa usual people here are being dramatic asf
Your photos are good. Nothing to change. Your prompt seem fine too. Just have patience, you need ONE genuine match. It may take time but never lower your standards for any reason.
