BletaRexher Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Do any of you do this and why? 99.9% of the time it’s the ugliest person in the pic so it feels like catfishing. I’m willing to hear out arguments though. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vroom Vroom Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Ugly straight guys do this all the time. When every photo is a group pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtjjproducer Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Immediate swipe left unless EVERYONE in the group looks good. It’s always the ugliest member of the photo. Sometimes I’m bored are will check the next photo just to confirm they are the ugliest then swipe left 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropez Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Never. And I agree. It’s always the ugliest person in the pic. The worst case I’ve ever seen was all the photos were group pics. Please don’t put group pictures in your profile. And you don’t know if the other people in that photo even consent. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Charles Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 If you use a group pic, you should just put it last. And even though it sounds ****ed up, make sure you're the best looking person in the pic or at least can hold your own. If you have friends that look like models, it's best to not directly compare yourself to them. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think it’s the reverse. It’s making you look worse and everyone else look more attractive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamianSolo Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I really don't even understand the point of group pics, unless you're trying to organize and sell an orgy. Either way, I tend to swipe left. When it is a single person, they do tend to be the most unattractive in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeenTheShit Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 This is literal self-sabotage because the profile always belongs to the least attractive person In the group. I'm always left trying to find out who the other hotties in the photo are. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATRL Moderator feelslikeadream Posted August 27, 2023 ATRL Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2023 You know how Grindr can now detect if you're using a face pic (cause you can adjust filters to only show people with face pic)? Well my dream is for dating apps to use this same technology to bar users from posting group pics. "It looks like you're trying to upload a photo of 3 or more people, and you're the ugliest of the bunch! Please try again." 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RideOrDie Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 electric chair for trying to fool others! it's usually two guys and the profile belongs to the uglier one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illuminati Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I guess they do it cause it makes you look sociable, like a status flex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercurialworld Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I agree. I can meet your friends later, but when I'm swiping, I want to know what the person I'm about to match with looks like. It's giving "Look at me! I'm so popular, I'm never alone" vibes and in my experience, those are usually not real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suneclipse121 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 This could backfire really bad if your friends are hotter than you. I would advise against it and anyways it’s best to to be solo on the first pic and make it a full body pic imo. Also don’t hide your face behind your phone… So many guys do this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poker Face Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I don't mind if it's the last pic to show you have friends...otherwise its 99% of the time a no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raver Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 A gay near me does this. It’s very tragic especially when the other friend in the picture is actually attractive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darius Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Yeah, IDGI. Like, I'll find out if you're a weirdo with no friends later. When I'm swiping on YOUR profile, I'm trying to get a sense of YOU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
every1blinks Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Definitely not for the first few pics. But I like to see at least one towards the end to show me they have friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadie Saxton Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I don’t think it’s bad to have a group pic in general, but definitely not as the first pic or few. And as many others have said - normally the people that do this end up sabotaging themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Slayne Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 i'm against it in general, but i do agree that if you are going to do it, it should be the last picture. and yeah, make sure you're the hottest person there or i'll want to date your friend(s). that may sound harsh, but let's be real, most of these online dating apps are very much visually based, and it's not a good start if my first thought about you is that your friends are more conventionally attractive than you.

BODERLINE Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I don’t mind a group pic to show that do have some kind of a social life, but it shouldn’t be the first photo, and all your photos shouldn’t be group pics. I find that just as annoying as the guys who are wearing sunglasses in every photo. Like bro what are you hiding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
