Despite living in a world where everyone carries a high-quality camera in their pocket, most regular guys still struggle to have good photos of themselves. And while there are plenty of women getting Tinder swipes with a single mirror selfie, that won’t cut it for the dudes out there.  Unfortunately, taking solo pics is hard. …

Left, left, right, left, right. Sometimes swiping feels like entering a video game cheat code. But lazy swiping can be interrupted when something catches your eye. She’s got a cat that’s the twin of your own, or she’s wearing the t-shirt of your favorite ‘80s hard rock band. Surely that’s a match made in heaven? …

If you’re using Hinge, there’s a good chance you’re looking for something serious. Unlike fast-swipe apps like Tinder and Bumble, Hinge is set up so you can take the time to read profiles before just swiping to the next one.

Although Bumble’s messaging time limits are designed to limit ghosting, sometimes something spooky happens. I’m talking about when a conversation disappears. And it sucks. You’ve been getting on well with a match. It doesn’t even have to be love at first swipe, but once sparks are flying in a conversation we’re all hoping it’s going …

Okay, so swiping left or right on someone isn’t life’s hardest decision. Honestly, I spend a lot more time figuring out what to have for dinner.
