Why Your Online Dating Photos Aren’t Getting Results

There’s a ton of good advice out there about how to make the online dating scene work to your advantage. One common piece of advice is “good pictures” which leaves most guys asking, what are good pictures?
Is it a picture that shows off your chiseled good looks?
Is it a picture that shows off your nice body?
Is it a picture that shows your well traveled and fun?
All of these are good pictures, but I think I might have found the best one yet. I haven’t seen it discussed much. Its been mentioned in passing, but never specifically called out.
Some guys will tell you to use social pictures. Shots from your crazy Saturday night in the club. This shows your fun and usually will have other girls in the pic to flip the jealousy switch on prospective girls.

My problem with pictures like that is that a lot of girls like to actively distance themselves from “those types” Club going ladies men come off as just that, its almost to alpha, to “PUA”. I like the basic idea, but it needs a slight tweak.
Just recently I decided to blow the dust off my Loveawake account and dive back in, and in doing so I figured I needed a new picture. I jumped on FailBook and grabbed a picture I’m tagged in of a pool party I went to a few weeks back.
It was a picture of me, clothed, with two friends from work, one is a cute skinny mixed girl in a bikini, in the picture she’s right next to me with my arm around her. I cropped up the picture, purposefully keeping half of her in the shot. You cant see her face, but you can see her body and enough to know that she’s not ugly.
I posted this up, made a few tweaks to my profile, nothing major just made it a bit more funny/aloof. That night alone I got two messages out of the blue, three “I want to meet you” hits, and three of the girls I messaged responded back positively.
I’ve tried the aformentioned “good pics” but never got this much play. This was a few days ago and so far the train hasn’t slowed down. I get multiple views per day, I’m getting new messages constantly, and strong responses to my opener. This seems to be the ticket.
If I had to guess to why this works, its a combination of a proper social situation, that being what looks like a backyard or someones house. A club puts off the “party guy” vibe, which girls do dig, but most are gonna try to play the “I’m better then that” card because they’ve got time to think about it when online. Combine that with a female presence, especially within “intimate” proximity and you’ve got the female jealousy switch in full effect.
