Firstly, you don't necessarily need to put your real name (although it is a requirement by Google). You can just put your nickname and make it look convincing that it is a name, and you should be okay with it. Also, you don't necessarily have to link your Youtube account with your original Google account.
These 6 popular
dating sites and apps allow for selective visibility on your
dating profile, so you can reveal it only to matches who intrigue you.
Here is how to make your profile private on:
- Tinder.
- Match.com.
- MillionaireMatch.
- OkCupid.
- Plenty of Fish (POF)
- Zoosk.
While staying completely anonymous.
At least…you'll only be visible for the people you want to be seen by. What I mean with this, is that only the people you like on Tinder (swipe right), can see you. And you'll stay invisible for the rest of the Tinder population, until you've swept them left or right.The quintessential fake profile will combine Tips #1-3. It will have one photo, with model looks, and a blank profile. Yes, OkCupid has its share of attractive users just like any other dating site or app. However, if someone's photos look overly professional or staged, or seem to be out of a magazine, beware!
Separate Out Public and Private Identities
Some people who use fake or stage names may do so because they have a public persona they want to maintain. Part of the reason Facebook is so strict about its fake name policy is because it believes you already have a method of using a stage name: a Page.Be Safe. DON'T disclose where you live or any personal information that could lead to your address. While most people who use online dating sites are probably just as normal as you are, it's always best to be overly cautious when meeting someone new (whether you meet them online or not). DO take things slowly.

Though you can pay for an app that uses bots to swipe through users and find a specific person, there isn't a direct way to find out if someone is on Tinder. In other words, you can't go on Tinder and hit a search bar and look them up and have their profile pop up. It doesn't work that way.

Because dating apps like Tinder and Bumble only reveal people's first names when you're swiping through the app, last names remain a mystery unless you ask. Because of that, asking someone's last name is taken as a sign that the relationship is becoming more serious. It also means that every date is half-blind.
The point is: When you lie about your age, you are missing out on the many younger women who are not only totally fine with how old you are, but who actually get off on it. And those are precisely who you want to be attracting.
Many people believe that they can't do anything to protect their privacy online, but that's not true. There actually are simple Tinder will show you profiles that match your searching criteria. Tinder will also show you to anyone who would have you in their search criteria.

Age and gender of Tinder users
In the US, it was found that twice as many men use Tinder than women. In terms of age group, we still see the highest levels of usage among younger users. Over a third of those aged 18-24, and a quarter of those aged 25-34 use Tinder, as well as one in five in the 35-44 bracket.No Tinder does not tell anyone your phone number, real name, email address or anything else. That is not to say this stuff doesn't leak or cannot be hacked, but Tinder has quite a strict data policy that keeps your personal information as safe as it can be.
It's not that tinder “doesn't work” for average guys, it's that the ONLY people tinder (and online dating in general) really works for is somewhat attractive women or above. Through Tinder, you attract women based on pictures. If you're average looking, you're going to have to get by on more.
If you swipe right on them and you aren't within their range, they will never see your profile, unless they change their location, or settings later on. You can passport to a location thousands of miles away and Tinder will treat your profile as if you were there, except it still shows your actual distance.
If you turn off discovery, flipping the switch on “Show me on Tinder”, you can still access the “likes me” section and even swipe on those profiles, but otherwise your account is invisible to non-matches.
So basically if someone had something in their bio that you think is dodgy it's a red flag.
In the Discovery Settings section, users can update their location, maximum distance for potential swipes, desired gender and age range. There's also a “Show me on Tinder” option you can turn on and off so you can enter or leave the card stack at will.
It means they liked you using Tinder Gold.
If you see the diamond icon in a Tinder profile, it means that person is in your Top Picks. That's all. One last thing you need to know about Tinder Picks is that they are time limited. They refresh every 24 hours, so if you find someone you like, swipe on them right away.
Those who have already liked you will have a gold heart icon by their name as well, which you'll also see here, or when you're swiping through Tinder in the traditional way. Beyond making Tinder more usable, Tinder Gold gives the company the ability to convert more of its users to paying subscribers.
So, What is Tinder green heart mean? If you click on the Green Heart button or icon or on the glide using your finger on the screen from left to the right of the tinder home page, it indicates or signifies that you “Like” your prospective match or that particular user profile or customer.
If you do start chatting, you only have 14 days before your conversation vanishes. Bumble also puts a 24-hour limit on that initial hello; JSwipe matches disappear after 18 days if no one says hello; and Tinder matches never expire.
Not getting any matches at all usually means Tinder has punished you for something. Attractiveness in and of itself should only influence what kind of profiles you see and get shown to, and never just render you invisible.
