Let me get mathematical for a second.
Recent data from Similarweb shows that 57.65% of Hinge’s user base are men, so that’s the majority.
Straight and gay men are in trouble: straight men because of the competition they have to defeat before even being considered by straight female users.
RizzBio Hinge Prompt Generator helps you craft personalized answers. Grab attention and get you more matches, Try Now!
Not to burst your bubble, but guys get about 1 match out of every 40 likes they send.
As for gay men, their dating pool on Hinge is automatically (roughly) halved, and then halved AGAIN.
And all of this isn’t even taking into account other preferences like age, height, smoking, etc!
Doesn’t sound all that opportunistic anymore, does it? You need to show Hinge users YOU are the right person through prompts.
Pick prompts that highlight your good qualities.
No matter the age, gender, and sexual orientation, it’s safe to say that the majority are looking for agreeability and extraversion in a partner.
Someone who’s:
- Kind;
- Fun;
- Intelligent;
- Confident;
- Funny.
1. Relationship-defining prompts.
These prompts talk about everything relationship:
- Your boundaries;
- Your type;
- How you are as a partner, etc.
These are the safest prompts as most Hinge users are seeking relationships—answering one of these prompts will basically welcome the right people with a warm smile.
a) “Dating me is like”
This prompt places the interrogation lamp on you! The floor is yours to talk about how great of a partner you are.
You can answer in a witty or honest manner. What’s truly important is that you remain, to some degree, honest and positive.
Potential answers:
– “Calling Customer Service. Available 24/7 for whatever you need because my s.o. is my priority.”
– “Having someone to constantly cheer you on for your exams, interviews, and life in general!”
– “Dating Spotify because I’m always blasting music. Pretty fitting for a musician, though.”
– “Waking up in a zoo every morning because I have 3 dogs, 1 cat, 1 gecko, and 2 different kinds of tarantulas. They all get along swell, BTW.”
b) “The hallmark of a good relationship is”
Aren’t we all yearning for a healthy relationship? This prompt lets you tell others what makes a relationship healthy for you.
The do’s and the don’ts, in other words—your answer will decide who’ll swipe right and left, but I assure you your matches with be worth it.
Potential answers:
– “Being able to freely bring up something that bothers you that your partner does.”
– “Bantering without things escalating!”
– “Security. None of that ‘Who are you going out with?’ or ‘Do you even like me anymore?’.”
– “Having friends of the opposite gender and not feel guilty about it.”
c) “Green flags I look out for”
Are you tired of attracting red flags? Well, how about you let users know from the get-go about what you want?
Potential answers:
– “Being kind to EVERYONE, especially staff. Being rude to others = not a decent human being.”
– “Not shaming me for my choices.”
– “Apologizing. So many people refuse to acknowledge they were in the wrong and it screams immaturity.”
– “Good with animals. If you’re good with animals, that tells me you value all life forms.”
d) “Something that’s non-negotiable for me is”
Similar to the prompt above, this prompt lets you communicate your preferences and boundaries clearly with other Hinge users.
Potential answers:
– “Being a pet-lover. I’m sorry but I have 2 cats and a dog I love more than life itself.”
– “Never resorting to rudeness. If you cuss me out during an argument, it shows me you’re too immature to be with.”
– “Healthy work-life balance. Commendable as it may be, I’m not looking for someone whose whole life is work.”
– “Keeping your hands to yourself with other people. I feel uncomfortable knowing my partner likes getting touchy with someone else.”
2. Prompts to showcase your humor.
Many view humor as an extremely important trait, which may also be an indicator of intelligence, as reported by Aaron Ben-Zeév Ph.D, on Psychology Today.
You can pretty much answer any prompt with a joke and people won’t get mad, but there are specific ones you’ll have an easier time with.
a) “Unusual skills”
The options are abundant with this prompt because there’s a heavy emphasis on the “unusual”.
Here you can write about something quirky you’re good at, and you can be serious or sarcastic with it (as long as it’s humorous).
Potential answers:
– “I’m a great listener despite being a guy, so I’m able to tell you in great detail how and why my friends broke up.”
– “Being great at Monopoly.”
– “I can cook noodles PERFECTLY so that they’re not too soggy or too stiff.”
– “I know the difference between American Football, Rugby, and Regular Football (or Soccer as the Americans call it).”
b) “Two truths and a lie”
Ah, good, ol’ two truths and a lie—two strangers who like each other are probably playing it right now as we’re speaking.
The goal with this Hinge prompt is to be as witty as possible; you can make the statement obvious or not.
Potential answers:
– “My name’s Charles. I like cooking. I’m an alien coming from planet Zlorb where everyone is 10 feet tall and speaks through their noses.”
– “I’m an engineer. I’m Batman. I have 2 dogs named Bartholomew and Cornelius.”
– “I love Mondays. I like my job. I am secretly Spongebob.”
– “ I have an extra finger. I speak 4 languages. I am color-blind. Yes, one of those is a lie.”
c) “My biggest date fail”
We’ve all been on a…less-than-stellar date at least once because it’s impossible to tell if someone’s a right fit right from the beginning.
Well, tell your hilarious story through this prompt to make your match laugh. Hey, at least your date is useful for something!
– “I dropped all my change while paying for our meals Oh God, it sounded like a pirate chest. Needless to say, they never called me back.”
– “Me and this person went on two dates last year and were getting ready for our third at an amusement park. I noticed my date acting off while we were in line for the roller coaster but brushed it off after they told me they were okay. We got on, and not even one minute in they just passed out. Turned out they had an extreme fear of heights they never told me about.”
– “My date took me to Dairy Queen for a casual date once although I told them I was lactose intolerant. Shocking it didn’t work out between us, huh?”
– “So, I was talking to this one girl a few years back who had a twin. We went on a date together and my phone started blowing up with texts an hour in. turned out I was on a date with her twin who was getting revenge because my actual date had stolen her boyfriend before she met me.
d) “My best dad joke”
This prompt is part of the “Voice-first” pack where Hinge lets you answer by leaving a voice note.
I see no better way of taking advantage of it than by telling a lame, but mildly funny joke that’ll have your match thinking “Oh my God. Is this guy for real?”
Potential answers:
– “Why do dogs make good cops? They’re excellent at pawtrolling.”
– “What’s a USPS employee’s favorite game? Pack-man.”
– “How do you rate a German cutie? Nein out of 10!”
– “What type of cheesecake do ghosts like? Booberry. Haha.
3. Prompts to help you talk about you, but in a casual setting.
Before you know someone as a partner, you must know them as a person in their natural habitat.
- Hobbies;
- Preferences;
- Skills;
- Experiences.
I always tell people to choose AT LEAST one prompt that helps them talk about their day-to-day persona so that Hinge users can picture what life would look like with them.
a) “My greatest strength”
Answering this prompt means leaving a good impression on your Hinge matches because they’re looking for someone with character!
Someone who’s a pro at something that helps them get ahead in life.
Potential answers:
– “Anything technology-related! I work in IT, so that comes in handy.”
– “My interpersonal skills. What can I say? I love people!”
– “How I always stay calm, no matter what. People cannot get a riot out of me.”
– “Telling a joke even in the most dire of situations.”
b) “A life goal of mine”
Talking about your aspirations never fails to woo people because it gives them security in their choice of picking you.
You can talk about education, profession, or even personal growth!
Potential answers:
– “I’m in the process of getting my PhD, something I’ve been working hard for ever since I came out of the womb, basically.
– “To help as many people as humanly possible. I volunteer in my free time, and seeing my actions bring change fills me with happiness.”
– “To separate people’s opinion of myself from reality. I used to take others’ insults to heart but now I’m working on my self-esteem!”
– “To have a breakthrough in the medical field.”
c) “To me, relaxation is”
How you unwind is going to tell potential matches about your daily life.
A simple prompt deserves a simple, honest answer because your aim should be finding like-minded individuals.
Potential answers:
– “Binge-watching my favorite show together with my cat while I eat BBQ Doritos on a Friday because I usually have weekends off.”
– “Going over to my family’s house to eat my mom’s delicious food and get on my siblings’ nerves.”
– “Chilling with my friends while we gossip.”
– “Sleeping. I am sorry but I cannot deal with any more people after work.”
d) “I geek out on”
We’re all geeks for something deep down, so don’t even try to deny it because dating app users love people with passion.
Movies, songs, celebrities, places, food, etc.; there are too many things to choose from, but you should only list the truth.
Potential answers:
– “Superheroes. I know so much lore about pretty much every superhero. Guess some things don’t change.”
– “Everything space-related. I am a huge astronomy geek.”
– “Fighting anime. It all happened when I watched Dragon Ball as a kid. I started thinking to myself ‘Wait. This is kind of cool!’.”
– “RPGs. Something about the pixelated style is soooo pleasing to the eye!”
As a guy, you have no other choice but to stand out.
I remember the first time I joined Hinge. The crazy number of prompts in front of me was overwhelming, so I feel you.
