Advice for taking a photo of myself?

I don't have any photos of myself and I'm getting older. Problem is I don't have any friends to take pictures of me. I want to have some pictures of myself online to make online dating easier, but I have no ideas of what to post without taking the worst of selfies.

Are there any easy photo ideas I could pull off on my own?

yeah I guess it was a pretty dumb question

Get a tripod and timer. Take outdoor shots of you hiking or something. Ask random people to take yohr picture with your favorite singer at concerts or something.

Set your camera on a timer and just do something, like smile away from the camera make it look like you're having a good time, if you're that desperate.

Odd question here but... Is it very difficult to photoshop, say, my hands slightly bigger?

My hands are soft and childish, and although I'm lifting weights and losing weight and they're looking more angular and roughed up... I kinda want to cheat alittle and make them just alittle more "mannish" than they really are in photos. Pathetic I know but all's fair.

Is this possible and is it something I can learn on my own?

Consider what kind of lighting suits your face best.
Side lighting makes me look really good, whereas on camera flash makes me look diseased.
