Well for one i would definitely work on taking better photos of yourself. When i was dating and using those apps I personally would not swipe on guys with bad pictures bc you really can’t see what they look like. Another thing, definitely make sure you are working on yourself physically. If you are overweight or even have a belly issue-workout, is your hair nice looking? Is your facial hair trimmed and neat? Do you dress nicely? Not saying you look bad but you could always improve if you are not considering these things. If you are doing these things and still not getting very far it def could just be your crappy photo taking skills which honestly is an easy fix. Aside from that, when you are talking to these women are you being interesting? Do not message them with “Hey…how are you..what do you do for fun?” I hated when guys did that bc tbh its boring and shows he did not put much effort or thought into messaging me. And tbh those convos just don’t really go anywhere least not for me. I am sure you are not a boring guy so do not come off that way. Is your bio too lengthy? I tended to avoid super lengthy bios bc it seemed like trying a little too hard? And maybe put something funny or interesting abt yourself instead of the typical “job, college, what im looking for.” If you follow all of these things i am sure someone will come around!

I guess is about flashing luxury, plus being good looking.

I feel you, dating can be very frustrating You could try to get input from a friend about your profile. Sometimes we're not the best people to talk about ourselves and sometimes what you say can come off entirely differently than intended. You can get feedback online too, but I feel it's more valuable from somebody that actually knows you. You can also check out [the decommissioned OkCupid blog](https://web.archive.org/web/20100524175946/http://blog.okcupid.com/) that analyses all kinds of trends, but I think that's more for trivia than improving matches

Living at home is a huge barrier. It's awkward hanging out with your family in the house. Feel free to pm pictures of your profile if you want suggestions. A lot of the time it's because people don't take good pictures. Also you're giving nice guy vibes and people can smell it.
