Mashable writer Nicole Gallucci asked the question on Twitter that everyone wants to know: What are the red flags on a dating profile that will discourage you from matching with someone? Twitter users did not hold back, and many concluded that only having one photo is an instant swipe left.
When a person only has one photo on their dating profile, it sets off a few alarms to potential matches. If your match couldn't bother to upload more than one pic of themself, it's a big indicator of how much effort they will or won't put into a relationship. Only uploading one photo could also be a sign that the person is hiding something about their appearance. Matching with someone online is very different than meeting someone in person, so having a good idea of what they look like is important when deciding to chat and potentially meet up.
The ideal profile contains at least four photos: a clear photo of the person's face, a full body photo, and two photos that inform potential matches about their lifestyle. For example, a photo of them with their pet, on a hike, or enjoying their favorite meal. This is an opportunity to see multiple aspects of someone's personality and everyday life. If they leave out these details, odds are you won't know much about them when deciding on whether or not you're a good match.
