[critique] I suck at online dating. Please help!

what do you suck at, op? do you not get responses? do you not get dates? do you not get second dates? that could affect the advice we can give you.

anyway - your pictures are okay, but you do need more of them, at least a clear shot of your face.

My friends would describe me as laid back and chill.

both the "my friends say..." and "laid back" things are cliche, and i prefer seeing self-summaries that tell me something unique about you. that said, i don't hate it.

If i'm being honest, this shouldn't be in the "Im really good at" section, but there isn't a "I'm pretty decent at" section.

a little too self deprecating for my tastes (also needs a proofread). i'd replace with examples of what you like to cook.

Lets talk about this on the first date!

this is lazy. i'd rather see this question be blank than this. also, this section can provide good hooks for people to message you (eg, "hey, white teeth is my favorite book too! what did you think of the ending?" etc). i'd do short lists of your favorites here, ideally 3-5 in each category (or the categories that are most important to you).

you should also fill out your message me if section, ideally with fun activities or date ideas you'd like to try! again, that can give people an easy conversation starter if they want to message. as it is, your profile is fairly bland and generic. you're probably hot enough to get away with it, especially as you're nyc-adjacent, but if you're not attracting the type of person you want, that (+ lack of pictures) is probably why.
