"I love to laugh, hiking, going out with friends and listening to music. Vaccinated." -Every girl in LA

When girls put stuff in their bios like “If you want to know, just ask,” “Love to Laugh,” “dog mom,” or “Here for a good time. Not a long time,” I can’t do it. Also too many partying photos is a turn off for me. It just makes me think that they don’t have their life together

My experience with girl profiles: Lawyer and teacher are the most popular professions in my area. Everyone has a hiking picture, wine picture, picture with friends, and picture with a dog. Picture with a baseball hat is also fairly common. There are also a lot of former female D1 athletes out there. Also, everyone seems to love spontaneous trips to exotic locations, but they all have jobs and pets that I feel like would make that fairly difficult. Not sure how they manage that

Advice for everyone on their profiles: *STOP MAKING ALCOHOL YOUR ENTIRE PERSONALITIES*

As a late 20s man, the stuff I see on ladies' profiles is....bad at best and downright abysmal at worst. It's a lot of "pineapple on pizza", "tacos and margaritas", "long walks to the fridge", "I like marvel, star wars, disney stuff". Very basic, and can clearly tell it was made in like 5 minutes without any actual brainpower used. Don't get me wrong, there are some actual decent ones, but it is really slim pickings up here, at least where I am. A lot of the women I see breeze by on their looks, and their profiles give me nothing to work with. How do I start conversations over basic stuff like that lol

I was on Hinge for 2 months and I had maybe 90 matches. Didn't get 1 date. Most of the girls never responded and the others stopped after maybe 1 or 2 messages, save for a few girls. I don't take it too hard, girls just have an abundance of options and I get lost in the fold. Unless you're exceptionally attractive or wealthy, I think time is better spent improving your physical appearance and finances. Also, girls definitely post a lot of the same stuff, like arguing about pineapple on pizza, loving dogs, travel (idk where everyone gets the money and time to travel so much), drinking wine, tacos and tequilas, loving The Office. The good news is a decent amount of girls post their reg flags openly thinking it's cute or funny, which saves you time. After a while I started dreading sending the first message because I knew it would likely amount to nothing, and dating feeling like a thorough job interview instead of being fun makes it not worth it for me.

I'm a guy and I haven't done online dating since at least 2015/2016. Come off of most social medias/cut down use to absolutely nothing. I just don't find it useful or infact, very "social". If anything, it's super anti-social being glued to your phone swiping profiles. Plus the vanity of it doesn't work for me, I think there's more to people than just an online picture and words/voice notes. Everyone has a journey. I think online dating appeals more to females because females tend to be more selective in the "casual" dating realm. Turned 30 this year, but I'm feeling more and more confident in meeting someone organically. My heart of hearts tells me that socially and via real human interaction is the way forward for me.

My tip for females: Do not bring negativity to your profile in the form of emotional baggage from the past. When you say something like "HATE LIARS AND CHEATERS!!", all you're doing is showcasing to the world that you aren't over your past and still harbor resentment.

I love how you like to mix it up to keep it fun on the weekends with a guest with you and sometimes be serious on the weekdays. The thing with online dating people judge you by your looks and how you present yourself. You really don't know if that person is really being genuine. Some people are good people but aren't good at presenting themselves online dating. Some people are good at presenting themselves online but later you find out they're the complete opposite on who they claim to me. They could have totally took someone's advice on creating their profile and not be themselves. I couldn't do I online dating.

I’m terrified to try dating apps. Never understood why the process of dating makes me more nervous than attempting to disarm a bomb blindfolded.

I suck at showing my humour upfront. It just doesn't come to me naturally at first. But when I get more confortable with the person, my humourous side REALLY shows

“What do you call a man under 6’? A friend.” Was a common one I saw when I was on aging apps.

Some of the stuff I saw on girls profiles…… “Find me at the beach” “Disney nerd” “Buy me Starbucks so I know it’s real” “ looking someone adventurous and doesn’t take life to seriously” and the one I see on almost every profile, “ bad at responding to text messages or I will text back right away and then completely forget for a few hours”

My biggest grief is that so many women's profiles are the same surface level info that communicate nothing about themselves that you have to swipe left through. There's no opening to strike up a unique conversation. You'd have to fire in the dark and build a connection out of nothing. That's just not worth my time. I like travel, the beach, dogs, concerts, and food. The obligatory pic from our girls trip to Nashville (which I assume is the equivalent to a guy's dead fish pic). And of course: Ask me! 🙂 You have to communicate something real. Put yourself out there. Sell me the story of you. Shoutout to the women who do invest their time in building a profile inviting an opening conversation. You're the real ones! 🙌

Common themes in girl’s profiles on Hinge: “I travelled to 5 exotic countries with people I hardly knew. We booked the trip the night before” “Overly competitive about everything” “I swiped right for your dog” “I’m the type of texter who never responds” “I’m the type of texter who responds in 3 seconds or 5 business days. No in between” “My love language is dinner reservations” “Typical Sunday: brunching myself back to life” “Swipe left if you voted for Trump/Cheeto man/orange man” “Controversial opinion: Helen Killer was faking it” (this is very common) “Make me laugh/love to laugh” “I’m so funny” “Good flirt to roast ratio” “Change my mind about this app” “Pics of you holding dead fish = gross” My BFF’s take on why you should date me: “Jessica is a total bad bitch with a big booty who will treat you right” (yeah sure) “Most controversial opinion: pineapple DOES/DOES NOT belong on pizza” Conservative girls will ALWAYS have at least one pic of them at a winery holding a glass of wine wearing a fedora Two pictures that they aren’t in (ex. Picture of just their pet, picture of a sunset they took) Just off the top of my head

Girls profile: "Not looking for a hookup. " Translation: Totally looking for a hookup.

99.999% of girls who message me on Bumble or Hinge say “hii” or “heyy” or “hey, what’s up” or some variation of that. But when you watch videos on what women “want guys to open with” they always complain that they don’t like boring opening lines from guys…also…most women I see on the apps don’t have their best picture first…I feel like they need to ask guys which pic to have first. Ok rant over! Lol

I think online dating isn't for everyone. When I've gotten into a relationships, I don't go out to like a bar or club, etc to find a woman. If I go to a public place and find a woman I'm attracted to, I ask her out. I think meeting someone out of the blue works for some people and sometimes you can have more of the natural connection.

I’ve been on dating apps for so long with no luck. Thank you for posting this!

On dating apps a woman will say, “if you wanna go out, just ask.” Which translates into, “just ask, be everything I want and nothing less.

I deleted all dating apps. Literally women would match with me then stop talking to me after a couple texts. It’s a waste of time. I’ll stick to meeting in person and talking on social media

Keep doing these videos with your other friends! They’re always very entertaining plus it’s good to get multiple perspectives too :)

I think it's interesting to see how guys get roasted for their profile photos but a majority of women's profiles consist of bathroom selfies, no full profile photos, headshots with a bunch of weird filters (hearts on your cheeks, dog/cat ears, etc..). It's almost refreshing to come across a profile with decent unaltered photos.

Hallee's 29 matches got me legit sad, not for her of course, she's smashing it!! It's just realizing the competition we are entering at any given time, even if we do get a match.. The sheer amount of likes is frightening, no wonder ladies have a hard time deciding who to choose, I would be confused with even talking to 3-4 people that I like, job interviews have less applicants than that lol. Anyway ranting and pessimism aside it's good to know how things are, accept reality and understand that being better and being out there is the only way to find the person you click with! Good video as always

Another excellent episode of Courtney and the lovely Hallee... just made my day!

I honestly have given up on "online dating" entirely. I've been single over a decade. There's no point.

One of the worst parts of a girls profile is "someone who can make me laugh" or just unflattering pics the think are good personalities. Auto swipe left.

It seems like a lot of girls profiles have multiple selfies of them making the same face. There also seems to be a lack of them showing their interests or hobbies. This makes it difficult to start a conversation. I've had the most luck on hinge when I respond to one of their prompts with something witty. Oh, also there is a huge fascination with John Mulaney!

I have done dating apps many years ago with Plenty of Fish which was a positive experience for me and Bumble which was a waste of time for me but it's best to go out there and mingle with women. I like to show my true self in person

I stopped dating apps a while ago because I kept seeing some sort of reference to being a “real man” and supporting the woman’s kids on like 50% of profiles.

I've never heard of this "Hinge" thing... but the fact it rhymes with "cringe" probably tells me all I need to know, lol.

the guy at 14:18 has no idea how many people he just rick rolled

For me, living in a relatively remote area in Rocky Montana, I see a lot of profiles that are just low effort or clearly looking for one night stands or just scammers. Then the ones that there actually is some effort are usually the battle hardened moms that have been through or dealt with drug addiction. And there's still other women without kids who struggle with addiction. I don't mean that as a bad thing but it doesn't negate the fact that is a lot of baggage out the gate in a relationship if they don't know how to manage their past. Also, obviously just the fact that someone having a child does inherently put some level of constraint or stress to a new relationship. A common theme is obviously nature, animals, and sometimes shooting guns. I've learned that if a girl takes a selfie from up high it typically means that their overweight and self conscious about it. Then there are the girls that are the openly toxic kind. I don't feel the need to explain that here. If you're here, you likely know how to spot one. There are also a lot of women who do the exact things that they criticize men for. I am by no means saying that there are only these kind of people though because there are still real genuine people who are stable and know what they want. Then there are also the kind of people who just simply want the attention by making the excuse "Talk to me to learn about me". Also to mention that most anybody who comes across my profile for me to swipe on are usually about 100 miles away. However, it does just plain and simple seem like there just isn't quality matches for me. At least as of right now.

You know what I find attractive? Seeing a woman laughing...their personality just shines....I find your friend very attractive...she goes to another level when I saw her laughing today.

I made a change to an online profile based on a suggestion in one of your videos. I saw an immediate difference...like the same day and it's been consistent.

Common things on women's profiles are: 1) Countries they have traveled or want to travel. 2) Languages they speak 3) Foods they like to eat 4) Perfect date or love language None of these things matter to most men.

I use to do online dating, but I got tired of seeing different people in person than they were online, they also looked extremely different then they did in their pictures. It began to feel like a waste of time.

Shower Thoughts: Hellen Keller was immune to flash bangs.

Good video. The following are some common features of female profiles I see. Note: I view profiles as a resume. Not that a date should FEEL like an interview, but I see the profile as a very limited way to list our most important/interest-grabbing qualities. Seems like the goal should be to list what we can bring to the table, not what we want the other person to do for us. I know my preferences aren't everyone's, but I feel most men who are trying to be traditional masculine men, which many women say they want, would agree that these are some perplexing choices. Important, but seems like something better for later or "What are you going to do for me?" -Love languages -Voice prompts of how to pronounce their names (even if they're common names) Strange choices for disqualifiers: -"The ONE thing you should know about me is:" something about how much they love their dogs/animals. That's THE one thing I should know about you as our first introduction? Many feature pictures including only their dogs and not themselves in the picture. This is especially strange when referring to "dog-mom/fur-baby," while not listing their child status/plans. -"You should NOT date me if:" you don't like sports/animals. Why is not having a high interest in a partner's hobbies a disqualifier? I like fishing but a woman doesn't have to like it for us to be a good match. I feel like this is something women say but men don't. Also, it's one thing to like her dog, but ALL animals? Do we have to be vegan? -Wants to travel the world. This feels strange when also stating the desire for children, especially at 35+ years of age. Also, do they realize this probably means many men would have to choose between expensive international travel and being financially responsible and stable? -Has to love his mom. Some of us are trying to be good men but don't come from good homes. Not filling out child status/plans while sometimes having unspecified children in their pics. Nose-rings/oddly-colored-hair. Many traditional men won't prefer this and the thought behind it. Also, it can send the message, "Stay away from me." kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kN1xh6pqmq_Wlp8.html Loving crawfish, queso, margaritas, etc. This tells me as much about who she is as a person as her favorite color. Insulting: "My dogs have to approve of you. They sleep in the bed with me and that's not going to change." What man wants to be second fiddle to an animal? -Saying their children from a previous man are their world. This isn't super insulting, but this comes across as them being more important than her man. Being a good mother is an attractive quality, but men are left wondering if we're always going to be second choice or able to have a voice with the children living under our same roof. It's a big thing to ask a man to father another man's children.

I loved this video, and it gave me a good laugh this morning 😆

Okay, the one at 5:02 was clearly the funniest, I loved extremely hard at that one ! Zinger at the end, dead-pan delivery, 10/10 !

My tip for women on hinge is to stop talking about pineapple pizza

When I was on dating apps, most that I would see are next to nothing. Plain, boring, not standing out, etc. I think so many don't take it seriously and just half ass it, which had led me to get off the dating apps

Common things I get in Chicago on girls profiles, Taylor Swift, bad at texting, talking about wine and/or tequila (some chicks base their whole profile around it), dive bars. A response to the prompt 'best way to ask me out' - 'asking me out' I'll update as I think of more

Ok Chloe is definitely my type of girl who can laugh at an impression or something silly. I happen to do voice impressions and have dome some work on here as well. What's funny is everyone at my job likes them and my boss is really cool he told everyone I can do them so they come to me to hear them. Now my 2 close friends always debate that. One tells me to do the voices and such if it makes women laugh where the other feels not to do it unless they know you better cause they'll think I'm nuts...🤪😏 This was a funny video.

I’m looking for “don’t worry I’ll take care of it”, “I made reservations for tomorrow be ready at 7” and “let me get the door for you”. Literally 25% of lady Hinge profiles in LA have this exact same thing. Automatic left swipe.

All girls are literally the same on tinder. Hiking, dogs, vaccinated, etc...

Anyone else notice the self-fulfilling prophecy when she showed her likes? Every single one was Chad. For those still avoiding the reality, it is time to face the facts, gentlemen - if you not hitting the gym and getting your money up, you not going anywhere in this dating landscape. As a bare minimum you need to look good if these apps are the only way you plan to put yourself out there.

Needed that Hallee smile on this SUnday

The rick roll thing is absolutely hilarious. I'm so stealing that!

Y’all didn’t get the joke on the last one. You got Rick Rolled 🤣😂

That's why I don't fuck with these dating apps period because if I see someone who doesn't look like how they look in their profile or photos be like hell naw

Lol I love this video it’s so funny! Plus I’m glad you partnerd with Hallee you both are my idol 🥹🥹

I don't do those dating apps. I show off my humor in person. Humor is definitely a "game" changers (men may have lots of other ✔ yet many lack game, and even humor)

My kids are my world. Over filtered pics. Overweight. 97% Overweight.

I'm so glad I'm not on dating apps anymore because the amount of cringe found on them is enough for a great laugh. Just go in public and present yourself as is and see who you end up making a great pair with as opposed to trying to make an immaculate profile to MAYBE get one match.

You make such excellent content Courtney, been following your channel for almost a year I guess, and I can see with my eyes, the steady growth that you have been achieving. It is heartening to see because you truly deserve every single follower. Hope you acknowledge this comment. Would make my day

It was a Rick Roll.. not a song that he thinks represents him

Both of them after the first guy's vioce note: That's so funny! We love guys who are this funny! Me in my head: This was the unfunniest thing I've heard in a long time.

I'm DYING over that Gollum/Mario thing, that's hilarious. lol

What i see on the profiles.. Well often girls dont post anything at all, but only pick the best pics and just lets the guys swipe. Because they know they look good and can get any man, without an effort at all.

The moment I watched the first profile, I was like yup this is gonna be fun

They honestly need voice prompts for Tinder. People use it more than hinge and I think It's a great way to showcase your personality.

That last one was much, much more clever than those green flags.

Jesus Christ, that second one, I cringed so hard it hurt

Great video Courtney as always and 1:48 - 2:18 had me laughing so hard that I started crying lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

In regards to girls' profiles I can't even make this up... the number of girls who say something like "don't be boring and just say 'he or, hi how are you' or 'what's up', be creative and catch my attention if you message me!" In their profile. Then, literally will message me saying "hi how are you?" without the least bit of self-awareness or irony....

Its also important to note that 35% or more of dating profiles are fake. So not only are men fighting to find women, but treading through spam accounts... So its not only the quality of someones character but its the moderation teams keeping up with spam..

I’m definitely not your target audience (married woman lol) but your videos are very entertaining! I found you through the interviews in Miami video. My dating advice kind of goes along with what you said about thinking of who you want to attract. Everyone has this laundry list of qualities they want, aka “the person of their dreams”.. but are YOU the person the person of your dreams is looking for? If not, maybe improve yourself or adjust your expectations.

That first guy is a damn legend with that sound clip.

Typical female profile: "No ONS, No F+, Foodie, Wine, Loves to Travel, Hiking" + Dog picture and a picture eating at a restaurant.

Hallee’s DMs are absolutely lit apparently

ngl... the voice prompt of the first guy was kinda on point too! I actually love it too.

does that mean i got rick rolled by courtney? thanks for the vid courtney! keep em coming!

"Here for a good time not for a long time" most common quote

Be the prize (do the work) and get used to talking to anybody and everybody and watch how interested people are in you (potential bros and potential dates)

Thanks for always the good advice Courtney Ryan I'll use the tips about profiles of thumbs up Courtney Ryan 😊

"I love yoga, wine and traveling." Every woman in Puerto Rico.

Lol that second one was hilarious and clearly satirical

I love Hallee's laugh

On girls profiles it's mostly bikini and travel pics, nothing that shows hobbies. Then prompts that say "I don't know what I'm doing here" or "gym rat" or "6' former athlete" as if being a former "athlete" makes you a current athlete, "here for a good time not a long time" charcuterie board etc etc etc. I personally only swipe when all of these things are absent from the profile lol.

Courtney is just so perfect

Background music while you look at my profile, that was awesome!

Elephant in the Room: if you're a good person who doesn't play games or have an attitude, you don't need a dating app to meet people. The circle of people around you (if you're a quality person) will likely be quality people too. They will introduce you to other high quality people; then it happens. A good solid relationship built on good solid personal traits and behaviors will develop. It is really that simple.

Females say "not here for hookups or one night stands. *Plot twist.... That's exactly what they want. Why not just say so🤷🏻‍♂️

Girls do the sunset and tacos too, it’s one of the pre approved answers on the question prompts.

Women profiles consist of. Photo 1 - Her and animal Photo 2 - gym pic showing butt Photo 3 - attempt at being artsy Photo 4 - Photo with coffee or alcohol Photo 5 - group Photo with other females blacked out Photo 6 - bathroom selfie. Not necessarily in that order.

Wait...did they just get Rick-rolled with that last profile audio?!🤣

Green Flag = The opposite of a Red Flag Dude just Rickrolled everyone that checks out his profile. 🤣

Thank you, ladies!!!

“Just a Pam looking for my Jim” it gets old really quick

Two sweethearts analysis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME🥰

I've on Tinder for a long time, and sometimes I think some girls don't really put any thought in the pictures they use: some pictures are from too far, others don't have enough light to see, others show a sad face, others have shades on, or even pictures with a ton of people so you don'tknow which one is her....I mean, you are trying to put your best foot forward right? Then in the bio they seldomly write anything useful like height, likes and dislikes and job, they rather write poetry, or what they hate, some even insult men (?!), I mean.....come on, if the roles were reversed would you date a person like that? On a side note: Hallee is REALLY pretty and seems fun!

Every female profile pics near Charlotte, NC: On a balcony with uptown behind them. Standing in front of wings painted on a wall. Hiking at our local mountain. At a brewery (we have 30+). Yoga pose. Somewhere abroad.

Love your thumbnails and reaction on them.

Worst mistake? Post any picture if you are not attractive enough to be a 10.

It would be funny to add something like the Denzel Washinton Aids clip from Philadelphia or maybe Oppenheimer's "Now I am become death, destroyer of worlds." The Jamey clip made me think of like a Kevin Spacey monologue

Courtney, I've watched a few of your videos over the months because you offer sensible advice... mostly just to see how crazy some people are. (makes for some good humor and reality check) Not sure if other people experience the same thing, but the type ladies I usually find attractive are rarely on these type platforms because they are pursued in real life enough that they have no need nor the mental energy to use the apps or dating sites. Your friend Hallee might be an exception. I'd say the few profiles I have viewed, there were plenty of cringe worthy profiles from both genders. Maybe you could dedicate a video to "Calling all normal people". lol

This channel helped me find the woman of my dreams 💙

Everyone’s got their insta handles in their bio because they don’t want to date, they just want followers. What you’re left with is every girl in my area’s 3 hinge prompts are something to do with Starbucks, Dunkin, watching Friends, The Office, or Dogs…. And that’s why I never go on apps anymore :/
