Hi guys! As the title says, how can I make myself more visible to a particular person? He’s someone I have history with, but I’d like to give it a chance if he’s willing to match. We live less than 20 km apart and are the same age, if that helps.

I saw his profile and liked him two days ago, but so far I haven’t gotten a like back. Is there anything I can do to increase the chances of him seeing my profile, or has he likely already seen it?

Hi everyone! I was hoping someone here could give me some insight into a slightly confusing Tinder situation.

I currently have two Tinder accounts. Let’s call them Account A (the original) and Account B (the one I created later).

When I first created Account A, I initially wasn't getting any likes, which made me wonder whether something was wrong with the account. That's why I eventually created Account B. However, Account A later started receiving likes normally, and it's actually much more popular than Account B as it currently has 200+ likes.

Both accounts are otherwise identical: same photos, same bio, same settings, etc. The main difference is that on Account A I've mostly swiped left, although I have swiped right on a few people, whereas on Account B I've only swiped left so far.

The reason I'm confused is that I recently came across someone from my past on Account A. We dated for a while, but things didn't work out, and as far as I know, there isn't any bad blood between us.

I saw his profile and deliberately didn't swipe right, because I was curious whether he would come across my profile and potentially swipe right first. However, after some time, his profile stopped appearing on Account A.

I thought that was strange, so I checked Account B and I was able to find him there.

This is what I'm wondering about: is it possible that he saw my profile on Account A and blocked me, which would explain why I can no longer see him there? Or could there be another reason why his profile would disappear from one account but still be shown on an otherwise identical account?

There's another thing that makes me unsure. I've used the "reset swipes" option on Account A a few times. Each time, Tinder seemed to show me fewer profiles afterward. The first reset resulted in fewer profiles, the second in even fewer, and after another reset the number decreased significantly again. So I'm wondering whether the disappearing profile could simply be an algorithm/discovery issue rather than anything intentional on his part.

My main question is: if I can still see him on Account B, is it reasonable to assume that he probably didn't block me, and that his disappearance from Account A is just due to Tinder's algorithm? Or should I take the fact that he disappeared from Account A as a possible indication that he intentionally blocked me, and therefore leave him alone on Account B as well?

I'd really appreciate any insight from people who know how Tinder's blocking/discovery system works.
