Why 'Just Liking' Fails on Hinge

Hinge is designed to be deleted, but you can only delete it if you actually get matches. Most people just tap the 'heart' on a photo and move on. This buries you in the stack. Hinge explicitly deprioritizes likes without comments. To be seen, you must use the comment feature. A specific, engaging comment on a photo or prompt proves you actually read their profile and triggers the 'Investment Principle'—because you put in effort, they feel a social obligation to reply.

Funny Hinge Openers (Photo Comments)

Use these when liking a travel, pet, or activity photo. Humor is the best way to stand out in the 'Likes You' tab.

  • "I am assuming this photo was taken moments before disaster struck?"

    Why it worksGreat for action shots or goofy poses. Creates a story.
    RatingRisk: Low

  • "Is this the part where we lie and say we enjoy hiking?"

    Why it worksBonding over shared laziness is surprisingly effective.
    RatingRisk: Low

  • "I like your dog. If we match, can I pet him? You can come too, I guess."

    Why it worksThe 'I only want you for your pet' trope works because it removes pressure.
    RatingRisk: Low

  • "This outfit deserves a round of applause. 👏👏"

    Why it worksSimple, visual, and flattering.
    RatingRisk: Low

  • "10/10 for the view. 11/10 for the model."

  • "Are you applying for the role of 'Bad Influence' in my life?"

  • "I tried to come up with a witty comment, but I was too distracted by your smile."

Replies to 'Dating Me is Like...'

This is the most common Hinge prompt. Here is how to answer it.

  • "Winning the lottery, but the payout is just endless puns and sarcasm?"

    Why it worksSets expectations for your humor style.
    RatingRisk: Low

  • "...finding an extra fry at the bottom of the bag?"

    Why it worksRelatable relief and happiness.
    RatingRisk: Low

    Why it worksBold and cocky/funny.
    RatingRisk: High

The Science of Hinge Comments

Hinge is different because it allows for context. Psychology tells us that 'Contextual Openers' (comments related to specific stimuli) are 3x more effective than generic ones.

1. The Investment Principle

When you write a comment instead of just liking, you demonstrate 'Costly Signaling'. You spent time and effort. Humans are evolutionarily wired to value things that cost effort.

2. Specificity Triggers Trust

Generic compliments ('You're hot') feel like spam. Specific compliments ('That jacket is vintage gold') prove you are paying attention, creating immediate trust.

3. Question-Constraint

Don't ask 'What's up?'. That is an open-ended burden. Ask 'Is that Thailand or Bali?'. A constrained question is easy to answer, reducing friction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We've got answers.

The most effective strategy is to reply to a specific prompt with a question or a playful "challenge." Unlike Tinder, where a visual compliment might work, Hinge users appreciate wit and personality. Connect your comment to something unique in their profile.

Statistically, liking and commenting on a **prompt** leads to better conversations. Prompts are conversation starters by design. Photos are passive. Unless a photo has a clear hook (e.g., they are holding a puppy or skydiving), aim for the prompts.

Yes, free Hinge users are limited to 8 likes per day. This scarcity is actually good—it forces you to be selective. Because you have limited likes, make each one count by always adding a comment. Never send a "naked like" (a like without a comment).

Roses are "Super Likes." They push you to the top of the recipient's "Likes You" feed. You get one free Rose per week. Use them on "Standouts" (popular profiles) or someone you really want to match with, as it signals high interest.

Yes! This is Hinge's superpower. You can (and should) send a message *with* your like. This message appears in their "Likes You" tab before they decide to match with you, drastically increasing your chances.

If you match but get no reply, your opener might be too generic ("Hey" or "How are you"). If you aren't getting matches at all, review your first photo (it needs to be a clear headshot) and ensure your prompts invite conversation rather than just stating facts.

The "Most Compatible" badge is based on the Gale-Shapley algorithm. It pairs you with someone who is likely to like you back, based on your historical behavior (who you like) and their historical behavior (who likes people like you).

Keep it short. You have a character limit, but you shouldn't reach it. The best comments are 1-2 sentences. Quick, punchy, and easy to read. "Long paragraphs imply high effort from a stranger, which can be intimidating.
