According to the ‘most liked’ man on Hinge, being a 10/10 isn’t always easy…
There’s a widely held belief that good looking people have it easy in life. They’re considered ‘more trustworthy’, find more opportunities landing at their feet and apparently have the pick of the bunch when it comes to relationships.
However, good looks aren’t all they’re cracked up to be, according to the unofficial ‘most liked man’ on Hinge.
That would be Alex Puxley, a 32-year-old from Market Harborough, Leicestershire who claims to have had 1,500 matches on the app since he joined in January 2024.
Now rating someone’s eligibility by the number of likes they get on a dating platform isn’t the most solid of metric granted, especially as Alex isn’t 100 percent sure if his likes mean he takes the crown as Hinge’s most eligible bachelor.
But you’ve got to admit that racking up 3,000 likes and an average of 40 prompts a day from interested women every day is pretty impressive.
With this amount of interest, you’d think that Alex would have no problem finding himself a partner – especially when you consider the fact that Market Harborough only has a population of 24,779 – but that’s not the case.
In fact, Alex has had a grand total of zero dates in the past year. So where is it all going wrong for the tech consultant?
According to Alex, the lack of a connection comes down to conversations about cold, hard cash.

“I’ve had a few matches ask how much money I earn each year which is a strange way to start a conversation,” he explained, adding that he was put off by suitors asking about his wage or the car he drives.
“So it would be nice to date someone who is just normal and doesn’t come across as materialistic.”
Revealing what he is looking for in a partner – single ladies if you’re reading listen up – Alex replied that he wants to find someone he can build a relationship and a family with.
“I think a lot of people on dating apps these days aren’t there for anything serious – they ask you how much money you earn, what car you drive etc,” he added.
However Alex did acknowledge that the blame may not solely lay with the women he matches with, as he’s been guilty of dropping some pretty cheesy pick-up lines.
Revealing some of the clangers he’s used in the past, Alex said that conversations stopped after he used lines such as ‘are you a parking ticket because you have ‘fine’ written all over you’ or ‘they say dating is a numbers game, so can I get yours’.
Might be worth investing a bit of time in your chat if that’s the case.
