Are you of the opinion that online dating isn't good for long-term relationships and that I seem to be attracted to some rare men?

I met some guys online with the hopes of getting into a long term relationship, but none of them ended up working out. I now know that online dating is a shite way from finding a long-term romantic relationship. There were some guys I met during social events, but I wasn't attracted to the local boys and those from the city centre. At an adult gaming event I saw a guy who I might find attractive, but I couldn't say hello to him and just smiled at him. From different town from me. I had to date men with a moderate learning disability and the adult gaming events has both learning disabilities and physical disabilities. That's how some of my meeting guys in real life has be and some men im might not have be attracted to some but some might be attracted to me if i'm not attracted to guys. I only might be attracted to one guy that I saw from one time for adult gaming events from my own experience from rl previous relationship hasn't been good.

What part of the world are you from, or what country or state may I ask?

But yes I think you came to the correct conclusion, and the data backs it up. Online dating apps are horrible although it's different for men than women.
On Tinder for example women swipe yes on a very small percentage, I think 3%. The other 97% of men are invisible to them. Men on the other hand swipe right/yes on 60% of women which again doesn't matter, they are ignored.
Next and the reason I asked where you are from is due to the larger trend of men walking away from dating entirely, at least in the US as of 2022, 63% of men 18-29 aren't in a relationship of any kind and have stopped looking. If you are in a more rural or place with traditional values I would think your odds would be much better.

I am from stupid UK that has not many good men there to not from the USA. I also got tons of men from the USA message me from disabled dating. Only used bumble, Badoo and disabled dating apps. Can only date with moderate learning disabilities only.

I think your best strategy is to look for good kind people that are on your level and learn new things to improve yourself as much as possible. It's all any of us can do. Learn a musical instrument or something you feel passionate about. I think every connection we make in this life matters and you will meet positive people if you project that yourself.

Online dating does work I was in a relationship for 10 years

Online dating hasn't work for me at all.

I'm on the side that believes that online dating Is good for long term. Just like in person you have to go through a lot of 'wrong' people to reach the right one. Only difference is, reaching out to a person is much easier so there is a lot of traffic. A lot of those messages can come from men who aren't right for you. The right guy might have a boring profile, he might not have a memorable intro, you need to get to know a person to really see what he's all about and not start running if there are no red flags to be found.

Is hasn't work I got were lame weak. men

[Ms_Facesitter]

Then all you can do is do what you think works for you.

[StarWarGirl]

I do believe that if you are successfully able to survive online relationship then your bond is so stronger that it's difficult to shake it. And so there is more possibility to have long term relationship.

[Usersarepoo]

I never got this from any online dating from men just shitty one

[StarWarGirl]

I'm in long distance relationship which started online and it's successfully continuing for 2 years. (Because situation has not become yet such to get together or else now we could be together we are more willing to)
