Just going to focus on this part.
Great. So we know that appearances are pretty much all you look at. You can learn tons about a person through the information they share.
Even the very generic sounding ones. If someone does share much at all to demonstrate their personality, do you think they're really invested in meeting someone meaningful?
Regardless, you go by pretty much appearance only. That's your way then fine.
But what are you doing to "grab their attention"? Saying that you think they have a lovely smile? Yep. That gets attention. But not interest - it gets trash binned. To overcome that in your message, you've really got to include more based on their profile. So they say they like books without any details? Fine. Share what books you love and ask about what genres they enjoy reading.
