I agree, but I almost never meet women in real life these days. My work is all male or married women. Not much into bars/clubs anymore, but when I do go the females are generally either with a guy (s) or in impenetrable clusters. It seems the only girls I meet are waitresses and clerks, and I don't consider it kosher to approach someone when they are doing their job.
People use online dating because they're awkward in person. But they'd be less awkward in person if they used the online start as a bridge to IRL interactions.
By eliminating contact with the opposite sex we can eliminate pregnancy, STDs, rape, and the anxieties that are caused by vile human contact. Online relationships benefit mankind on many levels. With dating apps your potential mate is chosen by computers using complex algorithms humans dont have the mental capacity to make those complex decisions on their own.
it enrages me a lot when people call it a skillset, because going out and showing up or simply just being there is not a skillset at all, it doesn't take any learning or trial and error
I'd disagree with that for most guys. Sure, the charismatic ones can do it naturally, but most guys need to figure out what works best for them and what their target group is.
basically what i'm trying to say is, that guys, men, have to know or learn so many different behaviors to have an ounce of success in the dating game, while women however, it seems just have to be attractive, which is not really behavior-based.
Yup, good post. I have never attraction to looking for someone online, it seems like nothing more than a big time killer. Go out today and start talking and you could be dating by the weekend.
It's almost always better to meet and talk in person. The typed word only reveals the words, not intonation, not whether you are smiling, not the expression on your face, not your body language in general, and so other many collateral things. For being called "social media", it really ISN'T (very social).
Guys need to quit approaching women period. Quit chasing women. It’s time for guys to quit being desperate and to turn this franchise around that’s what needs to happen
It's always much better in person. because u met the person. u know she's real. And u get to see way she is. and u can go on from there. if I like her or u dont. hey u might get lucky n hit it off.
Internet so you think you are talking to a girl but in reality you are talking with a 300 pound man who lives in moms basement who goes by the name of chuck and has great dream or plans for you when you meet for the first time!
Because you know who you are talking to and you can see the expressions change (except under makeup when those are hidden and so you're dealing with ice)
Its not fun thats why nobody does that because people see that as cringe and awkward - and if that bitch is crazy u will end up in court just like my friend so fu ck that

Those are reasons why I never understood why people use online dating in the first place!
Communicating in person is so much better.
I agree 100%

And there’s actually a real good chance we’ll say “yes”.
Online way be easier but the trade off is more likely to get turned down
Quite true.

Yeah, but a lot of those behaviors are used in other aspects of life.
how so specifically?
Rejected on line, rejected in person. It is still another kick in the guts, however it happens.
Rejection isn't personal
Rejection seems to be pretty personal to me.

Oh you’re not helping. I have nothing to lose, I’m already alone.
Ok usely I think so you can tell if what they look like an get to know real personality
I think you can get good basic info. I once talked to a woman for nine hours on a transatlantic flight.

Thank u.

Don’t tell the secrets! The less comp the better 😎.
As you said, in person, you're 3d. Its much easier to read the cues the body language etc.
You can't get all of that hiding behind a screen
Online a Woman can be who ever she wants
but in real life the truth really comes out who
she is and she can't lie about anything.
Because you know who you are talking to and you can see the expressions change (except under makeup when those are hidden and so you're dealing with ice)

People too often think I'm a mugger (which I'm not) so it doesn't work either, I'd rather save time and frustration by just going about my day.
Almost all women lie about their age and the photos are filled with filters. In person is much better.
Thats great and all how do we do that?
Where do we go?
How do we do that when here in the UK it rains 24/7 until the summer?
