I will show you how to create an attention-grabbing, unique username that represents you and a matching mantra to help you stand out in the crowd.You want to indicate your fundamental personality traits while maintaining an air of mystery.And you want to portray yourself in an attractive, flirty way without seeming forward.Or, at the very least, to get a reply from a woman who doesn’t just post photos of her cats.Yes, selfies have become an ingrained part of our culture, but you should keep them on Instagram where they belong.The most successful photos are taken in daylight, using an SLR camera (not a smartphone), and show just one person, not a group.
