Dating may be the path to true love and a happily ever after, but that doesn't mean you'll have to stumble across a minefield to get there.

With the rise of mobile dating apps, selecting a potential lifelong partner has never been easier. But as any Tinder user will tell you, people will say anything on their profile in order to get you to dinner.

Now, a single radio presenter from Sydney, Australia, has revealed the nine types of men you should avoid at all costs.

Writing for news.com.au, Jana Hocking explains why swiping right on any of these following men is a big no-go...

1. The 45-Year-Old Guy

Jana says that if a guy says he's 45 years old, then he's lying.

She writes: "Just last week I went on a date with a guy who said he was Scottish, worked in finance, was 6ft and appeared to have no kids or former marriage. The only thing correct about his profile when I turned up to the date was that he was Scottish."

2. The "Alpha" Guy

Hocking says that these guys can be easily spotted holding up a dead fish or posing with an animal they've just shot.

She writes: "Just like a caveman who hunts a wilder beast and brings it back to the cave to impress his lady friend, this guy is trying to show he is as masculine as they come."

3. The 5ft 10" Guy

Once again, Jana says they're lying.

If they're writing that they're 5ft 10", then they're probably 5ft 8" and fully aware that most people will swipe left if they admit it but that they also can't get away with saying they're 6ft.

4. The Fresh Out Of A Relationship And Angry About It Guy

Jana says that if you spot any of the following phrases on a guy's Tinder profile, AVOID:

  1. "If you can’t handle me at my worst you don’t deserve me at my best"
  2. "Studied at the school of hard knocks"
  3. "Prove to me that all women aren’t..."
  4. "You probably won’t message me back because I’m a nice guy."
5. The "Entrepreneur" Guy

Put simply, Jana says this translates to being "jobless".

6. The Solo Selfies Guy

Now, Hocking does admit that she was once "this person", but that a friend told her that it made her look like she had no social life and no friends.

She writes: "The more extreme version of this category involves the person looking slightly like a serial killer, with extreme close-up photos, no smiling and the impression that they have the personality of a dead fish."

7. The All Group Photos Guy

Jana says this guy is deliberately leading you into a game of Where's Waldo? and hoping that you think he's the hot one.

8. The "Puppy" or "My Niece" Guy

Hocking explains that these guys will "dangle anything that remotely gets your ovaries rumbling in the hope that you will swipe right immediately."

She explains: "Anyone holding a baby (niece/nephew) in their photos is basically saying 'Look! This could be us!'"

9. The Guy With The Same Girl In Every Shot

Jana writes: "This is the couple looking to get frisky with a third person. Cheeky rascals."

Now, unless you're into that - go for it! But if you don't like sharing, swipe left.
