    If you really want a bunch of people desperately competing for your attention, go on The Bachelor SA.

    For those who just want to increase their chances of meeting someone decent, there really is no shortage of advice to be found out there on the internet.

    We’ve run through a few options before, focusing especially on Tinder, but you have to roll with the times and keep things current.

    (By the way, Tinder has just wrapped up filming a ‘choose your own adventure’ series, in case you were looking for something to replace Love Island.)

    Keen to try and land a few more dates, and potentially find someone you can spend the rest of your life being kind of happy with? Firstly, we recommend you check out the Instagram account Tinder Nightmares, so you can be adequately prepared for what comes next.

    Secondly, here are some tips via Business Insider:

    Take more realistic pictures

    Experts recommend to stop lying about age, weight, height, or any other points of insecurity.

    “If you’re unhappy with your current circumstances, deal with it, don’t ignore it or lie about it,” Wendy O’Connor, a psychologist and life coach, told Business Insider. “You will be surprised at how many people there are who really will like you for you, so be authentic and honest and it will get you further.”

    If everyone heeded this advice, dating apps would be a better place for all.

    Keep your profile short and sweet

    Nobody wants to read a dissertation about your life, so experts recommend being intentional with your word choice.

    “It’s important to be short and to the point,” O’Connor said. “It’s also important to remember that there’s a fine line between too boring and too playful where your whole profile is a bunch of jokes.”

    I would say a profile that just reads ‘DTF‘ is probably a little short, but Brian Howie, the host and creator of The Great Love Debate, offers this advice:

    “Every profile should have three things you want people to find out about you, two things you wish to find in them, and one thing you hope to find together: ‘I am A, B, C, looking for X, Y, let’s run around the world and find or do Z,'” Howie said.

    Nothing says romance like a formula.

    Offer key details about your interests and passions

    Though you might not want to reveal too much, experts say you should be specific when it comes to certain details like your interests and passions.

    “For example, I was unequivocal in my Tinder profile about two things: loving the book ‘Sapiens’ and an interest in finding a relationship of equals,” Keren Eldad, a business coach, speaker, and creator of the Date with Enthusiasm program, told Business Insider.

    Eldad ended up meeting her fiancé on Tinder.

    “In turn, I found a man whose profile said that he ‘reads probably more than is good for me,’ and who is thoughtful, egalitarian, and progressive.”

    Cut the ‘long walks on the beach’ and ‘hanging with friends’ and ‘movies’ stuff, and dish out some real deets.

    Also, holding a puppy or kitten isn’t a personality trait or passion.

    At this stage, I’m going to moonwalk out of here. If you want further advice, there are six more tips to be found in the original Business Insider post.

    Everyone at 2oceansvibe wishes you a lifetime of happiness or, failing that, at least some half-decent dates.
