'''Duff''': ''I think the first thing is obviously looks, which sounds super vain, but that is what you first go for: natural chemistry. Also what they say in their profile has to be funny. I don't want to see a shirtless mirror selfie. That is instantly left. Someone who looks like they like to do fun things and someone who can make you laugh in their profile''.

You can do this once per day, so your potential soulmate will know it is really real. This function is an answer to the frequently cited anecdotal evidence that all (straight) men on Tinder just swipe right on everyone, hoping against hope that they'll land a match. According to a report from the New York Times, men are three times as likely as women to swipe right on any given picture.
