You aren't showing any value, prizability, or selectiveness. No one cares you are a coffee addict, and thumb wrestling is PUA circa 2006; might as well run the Cube with that outdated shit. Why are you asking to have her join you for a beer? You don't even know who they are yet. Does that sound like you are being selective and have high value? You did manage to sound upbeat and somewhat humorous, so that is something.

Here is my suggestion, just Google "good Tinder Profile content" and copy and paste some decent shit. Don't reinvent the wheel, your too new at this to come up with good shit on your own. And while it's true girls mainly look at pix, and then maybe content, the profile content is much more important for woman than for men.

I've been swiping mostly because my friends(guys and some girls) do it, and it's usually for shits and giggles. I match with girls now and again, usually decently attractive, as in a 7 or 8 most of the time, but I almost never get a response if I try sending a message. Is swiping on tinder really only good for shits and giggles?

I began using tinder one week ago (since I had never used it before, I had been locked in for ages due to uni work and I felt that my online game was severally lacking). After a bit of research and some callibrating, I got my first lay not one week later, with a solid 8/10. I am convinced and will be using it again. Here is a few materials I found to be quite useful (I actually belive we need a "tinder general" locked post in the online gaming section of this forum):

One thing I personally would modify from those guides is to maybe spend a bit more time bantering,

Thanks for the links! Those articles are a lot better than the ones I found on my own.

Here has been, by far the, the best Tinder trick I have learned: After 4-8 texts get the girl off tinder by giving her your number to text to. I tell them some bullshit about "getting too much Tinder spam" you can see how that works on two levels. Once they start texting you off tinder you automatically have a leg up on those other 10 guys they were simultaneously Tinder'ing

THE PUA GUIDE I WAS READING DEMANDS THAT I START TRANSITIONING INTO REALITY RIGHT NOW SO HERES MY NUMBER AND YOU BETTER MAKE GODDAMN USE OF IT.

I treat PUA like fight club, I never talk about fight club unless you are in Fight Club. Be careful mentioning PUA to chicks - ever, ask me how I know.

Tinder is a tool for those who need to feel validated. It's a whole new era of narcissism.
