If online dating is so bad for men why do so many men use these apps?

Should you give up your dog if your partner doesn't like dogs or give up your partner? ↗

Honestly @coachTanthony I have had three online relationship that have resulted in real world dating, and they never worked out. The women on dating platforms seem to all have some pretty toxic and destructive personality traits.

But I have hook with a few of them for a few months at a time and have has some pretty hot monkey sex going on.

So yeah, it is unhealthy honestly, but I love that monkey sex!!! And honestly it is hard to meet women in real life, but the women online are at least trying to find something. If they play it right, and I play it right, I am willing to give them what they are seeking. If it works out great!!! But long term it seldom does.

Because it´s portrayed as being easier to find a woman. Like in advertisement there are many success stories portrayed that make it seem like it´s impossible to not find a partner on there.
The other reason is the variety of profiles, unlike offline there are way more women on there and depending on the amount of information in the profiles it´s easier to look for a certain type of women. Like if you want to a religious woman you can go on a dating app for religious people. While offline it needs time and communication if a woman is single and compatible.

@coachTanthony This is the best answer.

The dating app usage provides one an initial False Positive of dating and being engaged in the process of mate-finding no matter how far removed, inefficient, and unlikely it may be.

A normal guy likes to be in the Game and the ones I know thrive in competition. Here we are intelligently designed with the desire to procreate, spread, and take dominion.
The Need is real but how to do it in Modernity? Viola, the dating app conglomerations of active, semi-active, and not active women to digitally choose from while never leaving the sofa or bar. Eventually, realizing that it is the same online as it is in person. My looks, dick size, and language skills pale when compared to my self-preparation and what I have to offer that is legitimately relational in nature.
The Ledger does not Balance. And, I can not Reconcile it. Swipe Sofa 🛋. Swipe Bar. Swipe Video game/Anime. Bitch about Women….

Repeat incessantly ….

That's well said! Relevant and hilarious. Almost spat one out there. My compliments sir.

I did be a few times because, several of my friends met their significant other there and my boss met his wife on a match free communication weekend. Although, I'm more sure than ever before that women don't want anything to do with me, I still wanted a relationship. This last time really drove it home when the majority of accounts I came across on several dating sites were either inactive, foreign countries, thinly veiled cam, only fans, happy Ending Massage offerings, possible police stings, and poly amorous non monogamous seekers.

When I was actively dating online I must say very few put more than a bare minimum of effort into it. I guess in this way it really does not matter if one use an app or not, though you might still be crazy lucky and get a good match anyway. Maybe many just hope for that.

[coachTanthony]

Online Dating does get a bad wrap sometimes and it should but yeah most don't put effort into them which won't give you any quality back.

Its desperation, after my catfish encounter, and having seen the Tinder Swindler, I was done with online dating for good. There are no guarantees of meeting anyone in person, id say if you're one of those who did meet, consider yourself significantly lucky. To me its nothing but a money pit in hopes of getting a date.

[coachTanthony]

That's fair.

[serious]

I don't know it could be desperation to find their special one through these apps because they tried in real life and it did not work out or they just want to explore and see if there is any chance of getting into a relationship through these apps.

[Nikki1989]

It can only be a combination of desperation and laziness.

[coachTanthony]

I've seen both for sure.

[Ligerzzero]

Because so many women are uptime and won’t even talk to men in public, especially not at a gym, mall, stores, so a lot half to resort to online dating only to get the same rejection online.

[Chazmatazz269]

Most men are some combination of stoopid and sexually desperate.

[inhua]

because the ones who are using online dating still don't know it's bad

[LiamJHayden]

1. They are among the group that experiences success online.
2. They are so desperate that they'll try anything.
3. If it's free, some might be on there for the laughs.

[aaron210419]

These apps give you the sense of hope, and hope can be blindly dangerous.

[PainusNdeeAnus]

Because they’re losers or too young to realize women will use their sex appeal to get things from men they don’t even like

[Anonymous]

They don't for very long. I used to put serious effort in for about a year. Now it pretty much just entertainment value. I go on, but I just ignore the messages I get from women... you know, like a majority of the women do to men.

[Justneedtokno]

Hookups maybe and sometimes approaching in real life can be a bit intimidating or hard

[Jamie05rhs]

Wtf else are we supposed to do? 🤷

[Fuentes]

Im Not using them to date lol

[captain_voidwalker]
