Looking for Mr. Right? Meeting guys has never been easier thanks to dating sites like Match.com, and phone apps like Tinder. But going from "swiping right" to love? That's trickier, says Tina B. Tessina, PhD, aka Dr. Romance. "Sites like Tinder are based on looks, and there's enormous competition," says Tessina, a psychotherapist and author of "Love Styles: How to Celebrate Your Differences." And, online dating's endless pool of possibilities has some daters going from hook-up to hook-up without ever finding commitment.
Still, plenty of guys are looking for love, too. We asked three relationship experts to share their best dating tips. Here's their advice.
Men form opinions of you based on what you show them, says Sarah Patt, matchmaker and dating expert for It's Just Lunch Houston. What you share online "reflects who you are and may cause your future date to think of you in a certain way, or pre-judge without the full picture."
Avoid rants about exes, scandalous photos, or any other content that could scare a great guy away.

Break out of your routine! I always tell my friend and clients: If you go to the same coffee shop every day or the same bar with your girlfriends every Saturday night, and you’re not meeting the types of people you want to, you need to expand outside of your comfort zone. Take every opportunity to put yourself in new situations so that you can meet new people!
Maybe that involves going to as many singles groups and events as possible. Tap into your hobbies — hiking groups, wine tastings, cooking classes, etc. Want to learn a second language? Go ahead and sign up for a class. Expanding your horizons not only exposes you to new people, but you have the added bonus of becoming a more interesting date for Mr. or Mrs. Right. If you feel like you could use a little help, work with a relationship coach or hire a matchmaker to make the dating process low pressure and fun! — Annie Mayo, Elite Matchmaker at It's Just Lunch Denver

Heard on Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!
Our guests this week, Jonathan and Drew Scott, aka The Property Brothers, have an HGTV show in which they help people renovate and style their dream homes. (They're joining us by phone because if they saw the way we decorate it would actually kill them.) Since the Scotts fix up homes for a living, we've invited them to play a game called "Have I got a match for you!" Three questions about matchmakers — people who fix up people.
