Speaking in an interview with Take A Seat podcast, Tinder expert Stefan Pierre has shared the reason prospective love interests may be getting the ick from your profile.
When it comes to choosing your perfect pictures Stefan outlined a series of things to avoid, which includes filling your profile with photos containing members of the opposite sex.
"A lot of my clients have come across [in dating profiles] girls that have guys [in their pictures]. Even some of my guy clients, they have their girl best mates in their pictures," he said, explaining why group photos are a big no-no.
He continued: "I'm like you can't do that. Because one it looks like you've got a love interest in that person [and] two, it's not your sister is it?
"It puts off other people."
Stefan went on to stress the importance of appealing to the right audience with your choice in photos, adding that your images should reflect the type of relationship you're after.
"It's all about your hobbies, basically put out what you want to attract," he said.
Stefan isn't the only person to speak about the art of choosing the perfect Tinder photo either, with the topic often doing the rounds on Reddit and social media sites.
One Redditor took the platform to ask for opinions on group photos, with responses being unanimously against them.
"I'd rather not see group photos on dating apps. It's confusing and 90% of the time I find the friends to be more attractive, so it also tends to be disappointing," one person replied, while others added that they didn't want 'others to put me on their [dating] profile'.
"I never look at a group photo and think oh good they have friends," a second person added, while another suggested: "If you’re going to use group pictures, be civilised enough to blur out the people who are not you."
