5'3. 135 lbs.


That's a BMI of 23.0, same as OP's BMI.


Yeah I know lol.

I'm literally shaped like a volleyball player (I play volleyball). And y'all say I'm fat and the OP is fat. Y'all crazy. Lol

Well, thankfully my hubby enjoys my booty and toned legs.

Hah.. the people in customer support on the dating site would have a laugh about that one. I wonder if they post up their best "I'm not getting matches, your site must be broken!" greatest hits on the wall in the office!


Actually that happened to me - I had 100 likes on match and zero on hinge something was early off. Support said it sometimes needs an extra step to activate , when u pointed that out

I'm slim and toned since I work out a lot but most of my weight is in my thighs/booty.

Anyway, OP ignore the people trying to make you look like a stick. Your weight is fine.


Be honest with yourself. 135 at 5’3 is large. I’m 135 at 5’8 average to thin, but not skinny.



Wtf is wrong with you?

I’m a 5’3” hourglass size 6. I work out and lift. I’m a 34DD. I would never claim to be “skinny,” nor would I want to be!

But I sure as shit am not “large”

Keep in mind that there are more body types than just yours.

My filters are:

Height: 5’9 - 6’4
Open to children
Distance: 30 miles

I have recent photos from my trip in Europe; full body shots of me sight seeing; a picture of me with my niece; picture of me in a dress on the beach


Remove the photo of you with your niece, or remove niece from the photo. Men think you are a single mom and/or have bad judgment to put a minor's photo on line on a dating site.


I'm surprised she's not getting matches with guys angling for the package deal.


Guy here. Of my single guy friends in their 30s, none have ever said "If I get married, it will only be to a woman who already has kids." Men don't really have a big desire to pay to raise some other man's kid. Life may end up that way, but they dont' seek it out.


Oh dude you are so sweet and innocent! The PP meant threesomes ….

OP is slim. The rest is true.


38F on a 5 feet frame would not look slim usually.


5’0” and 38F would have me swipe right immediately!

She is a 38-year-old woman. This is not a bra size.


38F is a huge bra size.

I would say 19 is extreme and might be hard to achieve without loss of volume in chest or butt area for many women. But 21 would be a better BMI for OP. Short women look boxy when they are average.

Slimming down and nice heels would go a long way for her.

My stats:

5’0 118lbs
Brunette with nice skin and classic style
UVA grad making 130k
I am told I am quite pretty and sweet. I have no idea why I’m receiving no matches!

It is very demoralizing.


Dating apps want to keep you single as long as possible to get more advertising money from clicks.

It's why most all of the sites now are "swipe" sites to increase clicks.

Honestly, I think the age range and the "open to children" is part of the problem. If you're looking for guys in their late 30s or older, they are going to be in their 40s or older before you two would have kids (unless they feel like you're going to rush things and then that is likely a deterrent). A lot of guys aren't going to be into that.

There's a lid for every pot, but I don’t think this looks like what you think it does. A 38 ribcage is a big barrel chest on a woman that height and those F cups probably hang to her crotch. It's like an apple body type.

LOL. You forgot a couple of facts. DCUM: "I'm an overweight, middle aged mom, and I get hit on everywhere I go. I look 15 years younger and have a pretty face. Men stand in line just to get a glimpse of me. I mostly date 25 year-olds, who also want to marry me (but I won't marry again)."

I’m a woman and I think she has bad judgment.You come off as a single mom advertising for a new daddy for your kid. That turns most people off.

I understand that if you want kids, then you want to say that out front.


I don't know. I'm 40F, also want kids, and am on Hinge (recently divorced from first marriage, no kids) and I've had plenty of matches. Now, actual compatibility is a separate issue, but I've had no issues getting first dates and even 2nd dates.
