1.4K opinions shared on Dating topic. So honestly this the problem with dating sites for men. Because men usually out number women 3 to 1. Honestly most guys do not read or educate themselves on how to do a good profile and write up and post the right pictures so you are 100% right.
The good news is the that the better you get at weeding through the jerks, the easier it is to find the right types of guys that actually do put the effort into it and that is pretty apparent when they do. But yes you have to put the time into weeding through all the weeds to get to the few that matter.
I met my current girl friend on line, and been together for 6 months now and she is amazing and its been amazing.
The hardest part for a guy is finding a women that will give him the time, because they become so overwhelmed with requests and messages they give up on it. And talking to a women on line through a dating app is like talking to women in a bar packed full of mean, and having the conversation interrupted all the time by every guy walking by saying hi to her. Sometimes all the attention goes to the women's head and they start setting some really high standards because they think the next man is right around the corner... which is true, but is he really the right guy or just the bright new shinny object that distracted you from the better guy.
Simple fact is for guys its all about volume, only 1 in 10 women they post to connects with them, out of those 1 in 10 only 1 in 3 of them result in a date, and only 1 out of every 3 first dates results in a second date. So if my math is right a guy has to post to 30 women to get a 1st date and then 90 to find a women that leads to a second date.
I got that on line, but for me I did pretty well... I had like 17 dates in a 3 month period, with 6 second dates... until I found my current girlfriends but I was working pretty hard... but was getting 2 to 3 responses out of every 10 I connected with. And by the second month I was getting pretty good at it really weeding out women better and finding the right types... so by the end I was getting responses from 1 out of ever 2 women. But still I went through hundreds of profiles, and got really practiced at it.00 Reply

Because at least 95 per cent of men are invisible to women on dating sites.
Most women set height and income criteria that reduce the pool of prospects to less than 1 per cent of the global male population.
Yes, the typical woman is that far out of touch with reality.
Dating apps/sites are a complete waste of time for men.
You may find it interesting to watch a couple of YouTube videos about the experiences of women who created fake male profiles on dating sites. They were shocked by the way that women treated men and how impossible the sites were for men.
A creator named Alexander Grace had an attractive female friend pose as a man. After being mobbed by thirsty men on her real profile, she was shocked by how difficult it was for her fake male profile.
My eldest son is 25, six-feet tall, good looking, blond, well built, hung like a porn star, a student of karate and makes good money as a tradesman.
He could not get females to respond. Those who did were obnoxious bitches. A few were straight out insane.
After a few months of being ignored, rejected, or left wide eyed by female lunatics, he gave up.
Many, many young men have similar experiences.54 Reply- +1 y

We are in Australia, where the women are exceptionally bitchy.
Girls will compete with their friends to see who can deliver the nastiest rejection and how many free meals they can get from men in whom they are not interested.

@cth96190 oh trust me I'm in America and getting "free meals+ (notice the plus sign) they can get from men in whom they are not interested" is what the American women's life revolves around.
even worst 90% of the women here think that one night of sex is a precursor to a relationship. so over here the audience are as savages as the Romans were back in the days when gladiators used to dismember each other at the Roman Colosseum

+1 yProbably because online dating is like a numbers game (just like it is for us but more so for the guys since they’re still pretty much expected to make the first move). Also many women don’t always respond, and that’s our right. HOWEVER, men have a right to put minimal effort into if they feel they’re going to get minimal responses. Admittedly it does get annoying when I constantly only get messages with only one word, but I think it could be the guys way of deciphering if I’m worth any effort in talking to before actually forming a conversation with me so I always try to respond to messages that just say “hi” with “nice to meet you, I’m silvermoon84 (except I’ll use my real name lol). If he responds back, great. If not, it is what it is.
If it’s not that, it’s just that they’re simply not into you.00 Reply
"...80% of the guys are unattractive, and so are 20% of the girls", you say. Now where have I come across this ratio before? Oh yes, it appears in the Pareto Principle -

Do you think that perhaps, just maybe, your standards are unrealistic?
You claim to be an eight out of ten. Okay then, show us. Post a picture of yourself in an update :)
"The guys either looks disheveled, bad clothes, bad pics or boring profile, not only that, they are very bad at holding a convo unless it involves sex.."
I thought the "disheveled" look was trendy now. I guess I was wrong then.

And notice she rates herself an 8 out of 10 in looks.
I've rarely seen any 7s on dating apps, let alone 8s or 9s.
Most of these Heauxs on dating apps just want you to subscribe to their ONLYFANS too.

+1 yMost women don't put in any effort either.
Though what you refer to as "effort" isn't even what I'm looking for in a woman's profile.
I want her to put zero effort into dolling herself up, I need to see her looking her worst, because thats what I'm marrying, not a box of makeup and carefully placed lights, she needs to look amazing with zero effort.
And I want her to write a damn book about herself on her profile, every interest, every hobby, personality trait, goal, preference, etc. because they need to match mine.
But most women just write 3 to 5 words in their bio and call it a day, or they write some stupid poetic crap, or some "life lesson", or a short blurb about what they think matters in relationships despite being trivial and vague and having no hobbies listed, so I skip them, because "I'm fun and down to earth and want something serious" is not a bio, it tells me NOTHING about her.
So yes, it's hard to find matches, and no, it's not because I don't spend an hour in front of a mirror or go to a photographer. It's because the women I've seen as options to pick, are fucking boring.
Also if you prefer women, date them instead.50 Reply 4.5K opinions shared on Dating topic. Because most men realize it's a huge waste of time. What more do you want from men? I've changed my profile countless times trying to come up with a good bio and finally found one but it's still not enough. Even if we do match and still play by your rules saying more than "hi" you still don't even respond. I don't message stupid shit, never have, never will, and I don't have any douchebag pics or pics of me hunting or fishing that most girls don't seem to like on there either. But to top it off, you women, 90% of you on there, not all, have the EXACT SAME SHIT, everyone of you! Be tall, I like tattoo's, my kids are my life and always come first, fur mom, make me laugh, I love to travel, linking your Instagram or onlyfans or cash apps, or just not having shit at all. This is why men have stopped trying, because women on dating apps don't give 2 shits about putting forth any effort whatsoever. Dating apps are a waste of time for any average man. And I speak having actually had luck off of them. Still not worth any of the dates I got for all the bs just to get one.

Same experience here. You can send 100 thoughtful messages to 100 women and not get a single response. Or get one or two responses where they say "hey" or something similar expecting you to carry the conversation. Which I can't blame them, since while men have 1-2 messages, women have 100s so they just lazily give half ass responses and see who fights the hardest to rise to the top.
- +1 y
@zeitgeist057 Oh, you can blame them because they expect to be treated better than they treat others.
Anonymous(30-35)+1 yA few things come to mind here.
First, quality men are not using dating apps to find women. If you're looking for a good man, you're obviously looking in the wrong place.
Second, let's consider you for a minute here. You consider yourself "about an 8", and yet you're using dating apps to try to find a man and you're "always working". Um, trust me when I say that from a man's perspective, you are not an 8. Not even close. I would bet good money you have no clue what a good man wants in a woman.
Here's some sound advice to you and other women like...
-- Educate yourself on what a good man actually wants in a woman.
-- Work on yourself and try to become a better women, one who actually offers some value to men beyond sex
-- Work on your attitude... no self-respecting man is going to give a flying fuck about a woman with your attitude because he knows he can easily do better
-- Look for a good man where good men are found, which is not on dating apps. Duh.
This site is entertaining in a comical sense, but really sad at the same time.10 ReplyBecause most women don't put any effort in online dating, in general. Tinder is quite literally choosing people solely based on superficial looks and women wield ALL the power in online dating, and dating in general, and THEN have the gall to ask why don't some men bother displaying personality anymore?
Also, you are definitely not an "eight" or above, especially at 31. I'd bet money on it. And if you're queer (into girls), then you're not even a "five." "I'm not super picky, either." Riiiiiiight... 🙄71 Reply- 576 opinions shared on Dating topic.
+1 yBecause as guys we know… Either it’s gonna happen with minimal effort or it’s not gonna happen at all. Everything’s based off the picture. If your hot she MIGHT read your bio but she’ll probably just like and then talk to ya. Unfortunately most guys don’t know how to take a good selfie lol. Their too busy having fun to take picture and show off their fun with friends where as women get off on that kinda thing.
So TLDR. Guys are either naturally cute or the effort required to be successful on dating apps outweighs the benefits. Minimal efforts still the most effective solution.30 Reply Sorry but my expirience is 100% different. Most woman profiles I see list all the negatives that they don't want in a guy. That or they just say message me to find out more. Plus the fact men outnumber women alows them to be more shallow. I understand you have to have some physocal atraction but i my case I can not and will not get a face lift just to get a woman. I much prefer what's on the inside and things we have in common. I spend a lot of time crafting nice messages to get no replies. I did an experiment where I send several nice messages got no replies yet when I messaged asking for fun/sex women have no trouble replying labeling me all kinds of names. Yet they seem afraid to say sorry not my type or thank you for the nice message. May be different in USA but in Uk thats my personal expirience when it comes to dating sites.

Attractive women don't need it , it's just a tool to get attention for them or promote an onlyfans account.
Most women online never write anything in their bio.
Most women online have only face shots to hide obesity.
Most of the accounts are fake, old accounts etc. As men are the source of money if they removed the bits, old unused accounts and onlyfans promotion there works be almost zero women on must sites except for morbidly obese single moms looking for someone to pay their rent using pictures from 1982 when they were 27.31 Reply- 8.9K opinions shared on Dating topic.
+1 yif you knew what it's like on there as a man, you'd understand.
so you read all those guides on how to best behave so that you have success on there. then you get on there with the best intentions. you message a few girls that strike your interest with a witty individual text. no reply. so you write way more women with less efforts in text. no reply. then you think to yourself "fuck it" and only text "hi" to like 1000 girls of which 1 or 2 answers. one being some sort of scammer. the other not being intgerested at all making conversation with her feel like trying to run in quicksand. by that time you're not getting any more likes, cause the algorythm at that point doesn't push you anymore unless you pay. and even if you do pay, you only get more of the shit i just described.
maybe this makes you understand why men stop putting effort.42 Reply- +1 y
Women have been writing articles/blogs/books telling each other what men want for decades... while telling actual men to shut up and just take whatever scraps women choose to give. But men with any value at all don't follow a woman's script so all of that advice women give each other is BS 99% of the time. And the few women who know what's what get ignored by most women.

Guys are twisting what the asker is saying.

Tinder and Bumble don't give a lot of space for profiles. I have a very hard time with online dating so much of what attracts me to a person, and I think also what attracts women to me, requires actually getting to know each other. Tinder and Bumble are such meat markets that it just kind of eliminates a lot of potential matches because it's so superficial.
I would say, try taking a chance on a guy that isn't ugly has a good profile but isn't really that attractive. You may find that appearance isn't as important as you think.

She's a 6 at best. Assume she's lying about at least one point because she's 30+, and assume she's lying about another point since she doesn't have a profile pic. Do some calculus: 31, no profile pic, men on the street who are 9s and 10s dont want her, so she goes to the internet where (typical female) she goes for the 9s and 10s , who ignore her online just how they do on the street, but she's legit angry that all she can get is average dudes who dont have expensive clothing (money). So she's lying and coming here to say the dudes all want sex right away, they're dirty and have ugly clothing. Bullshit.
She's a 6 who was likely a barely passing 8 during her mid-20s, 7 in her late 20s but who's now in that scramble to find validation so many women become starved for after 30.

@ronaldo75 Plus, probably has 3-4 kids and says, "Must love my kids", yadda.. yadda. It's a wrap.
Women on dating sites are not worth the effort to men of value and stature. Also I've worked for a tech company that administered a very VERY large dating app (you're probably a member) and women only answer an average of around 0.5% to 1.1% of messages and normally only 20% of men can get a response within 10 tries. 1% of men can get a date within 10 tries. So... like... what's really the point? I have a life. I can't spend all my time swiping through a fucking app for days and write corny messages to *maybe* get a response after 100 or 200 tries. Almost 500 messages to get an actual date? Nah. I have more value than that. a lot more.
54 ReplyI can agree to that, a lot of men don’t really put effort but that’s usually an all around thing, involving their socials. One thing I’ve noticed is that when women see a man with a really good profile they usually are met with the “he’s doing too much” so it’s either doing to much or not doing enough sadly. I also want to point out that most men are socially unaware, while women are more socially aware, that’s why you see women social medias being more creative then men because women put the effort to show everyone vs men don’t really care as much. Also do you date women as well? As ask this because you mentioned that you see less unattractive women then men, which I agree with but one thing i noticed is that women who date both men and women tend to have different standards for women than they do for men.

"I’m desperate to get a girlfriend" my first critique would be to ditch that. Girls aren't stupid and they smell desperation. Dont be desperate and have more self respect. Next get an actual haircut. Go to a male barber shop and ask the guy to give you a cut that will fit you if you dont know a style that would suit you. Ask for a fade or something too as that is a very modern look and makes you come off more "clean". Pay more attention to your overall hygiene and for god sake be decisive.

also you can say you are improving but not in that way. Instead of reading self help books try working on cardio and or muscle gains. Not to bulk up but to just build lean, healthy muscle. Or start dedicating time to help your local community in some way. Be it kids, animals, man anything you want. Share more about what you like to do.

2. Guys that are online often just copy/paste their profiles or put in little effort because most of the time they get contacted by scammers and that causes them to not want to waste their time with details.

You say you would date an average guy, but average is literally all in that 80% you consider unattractive. When guys do get attractive they know they will never get another chance being that young again so they tend to make up for lost time by sleeping around as much as they can.

Exactly. Attractive men that are successful with ladies don't use online dating nearly as often. Mainly beacuse online dating is strongly favouring women and not worth it for men.

don't be intentionally dense... it's not a good look. That's generally something teenagers primarily do... not adults. Though its really not that difficult to have a nice photo taken.

Any average guy doesn't have any chance on those apps, girls there think they deserve the perfect prince charming and won't go for anything else than a greek god.
Also, we don't care about look as much as you girls. We post normal pics, that represent us in our everyday lives, while you try to look like the models you're not.20 ReplyWell it cost to much money and correct me if I'm wrong but women get on for free and there is a lot of bullshit on those apps, example I live in a very rural area and one of those apps or sites was tell me that there was 100s of drop dead gorgeous women in all these very very small towns around the area, when I know for a fact that the town has a population of 20 people that are mostly elderly citizens so those apps/sites are a bunch of lies
20 Reply1.1K opinions shared on Dating topic. You tell me. Maybe you are super picky. I try do many different profiles. I don't excalty have a lot of pictures of myself either Fun profiles. I liked tons, rarely ever get a like back . I hate dating apps. Oh and men usually have to make the first moves.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yI had good luck on OK Cupid, but it also probably depends on where you live. There were definitely a lot of men that were in the city, and I live about 1.5 hours from the city. Either way, I liked the way the app encouraged people to answer personality questions, etc. that made it easier to get to know someone. I met my boyfriend on OKC a little over 2 years ago, and we've been joined at the hip ever since.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yI have a similar experience, though not a such high percentage, but surely more good looking men in real life.. I guess most men on online dating apps/sites are some who don't have much of a social life (at least not with women), and spend a lot at time inside in front of a screen. Not really the type of men I personally find the most attractive.

Likely some truth in that, that doesn’t mean that we’re bad people though. I do suffer with social anxiety so being able to chat to someone online before meeting them takes away some of that awkwardness that would otherwise happen when I meet someone new.
If anything the social recluses like myself are probably more likely to treat a girl better as we’re not out there chasing anything with a pulse like some of the pretty boys you’d find in the local bars or on the beach.
Opinion Owner+1 y@CarlosLentoni I did not mean to say it's bad people, and I don't want to judge everone like that either, just a trend I see.. I would also not go to the bar to find a partner :D, then I prefer online a lot more

Most dating sites the women are ugly but on bumble they’re really hot I’m trying hard on my bumble profile and I socialize and work out your advice would be appreciated.

+1 yReally cuz most times I match with and then message a girl on there they don’t even reply and most women have no bio either and their pictures are often all selfies of them at home. Just saying I’m sure a lot of men don’t try on these apps but there is absolutely no way the women on there are trying harder.

Granted it might not have been the case at the height of COVID-19. Now you need to realize that there is a reason those people are seeking dates on apps instead of real life.

Is a fact that guys can't make a decent profile to save their lives. Blame society that doesn't say we are sexual objects and so we don't take proper care in that sense.11 Reply 7.5K opinions shared on Dating topic. Most women on those things are just swiping and messaging to take up free time like I’m doing now. It’s a huge waste of time. More meets and sex from activities and bars than all those apps totaled. It’s a great moneymaker though.

+1 yDating apps are trash, having to pay money just to talk to someone is pointless because when you run out of coins you gotta spend more money which will never end, dating apps are trash, a bunch of messages say the same thing word for word baiting you to waste money

And the mistake a lot of women make is acting/being low value when they're young... collecting lots of baggage and not developing an attractive character/personality. Then when they're older they expect dudes to take them MORE seriously than any dude ever took them before. For what? It's insanity.

Anonymous(30-35)+1 yMost guys don't look good and are not high maintenance like girls. Girls spend a lot of money on grooming for years. Plus guys don't wear makeup and don't take photos everywhere, every time. The once do are professional players who have no job than having sex with women and they are successful in that way.

+1 yMaybe the effort you speak of should be put into not judging them based on their profile but in real life. If you're going to rely on online dating you might what to just try meeting some of these guys and see if there's more than meets the profile

Anonymous(45 Plus)+1 yIt's funny because I heard about Bumble because on there women have to make the first move and now they know what it's like when no on responds back. Tinder is a scam, people looking to hook up. Dating apps are a waste of time and women are always looking for the to 10 percent of men. I can hold conversations, but that doesn't seem to matter at all, but if you like cute girls, date one of them, it's fine.

+1 yAnyone expressing interest in me usually liked me. My conversation was not sexual. I just had normal conversation. I didn't come off as creepy in either my profile or my conversation. I guess this got me ahead of other guys.

+1 yPeople in general are getting more lazy. But also I would guess being burnt out from dating. They probably have had so many that don't go anywhere. But they feel like they need to be with someone. That would be my guess.

Could this be the reason why men don’t do well on dating apps?
