How well do you do in dating apps?

Question

I do very well for a guy. Endless likes. Yet there’s just so few girls with any quality. Hence why only 2 active conversations

OneViewpoint · Accepted Answer

ROFL, define "doing well". I used to get responses. I'd get dates. But the women I was meeting were absolutely depressing. Hot? Yeah sometimes. But also damaged and carrying serious baggage. Ex trophy wives with a massive sense of entitlement. Depressed housewives popping pills and pulling the cork on a bottle of wine at 10AM, screwing the pool boy and their tennis instructor. Massive insecurities. No sense of accountability. It's a shit show in my area.

Hence why these days I only date women 25 -40 who I meet in person and get to know reasonably well before I ever date them. Less baggage and better attitudes. Easier to be around and more fun. Also better sex.

A great deal of the time i match with solicitors, ghost profiles, false-positives, and scammers.
It is insanely rare when i get an actual person interested in me... like, once every several years.
I get I'm not the most attractive, and my profile doesn't have anything offensive, no TMI, or offputting... besides a disclaimer saying my boundaries of no solicitors, no hookups, and no trumpers. My profile pictures are just me cleaned up, and out having fun... so i honestly don't understand how my luck with online is just as much as offline.
I have had better luck with Facebook dating, but even there it's hard to find someone interested.

You really mean hook up sites, right?

You go on there in the hope to get into a girl's (or several) pants, right? Why else would you take a chance to go on those sites, to pay a hefty price if not to get a few of those pathetic spasms?

Why do you men (yes men) always hide the fact that you solely go on those sites with the ultimate goal to get laid?

You know what? I am not that sure that you are doing as good as you pretend to do because otherwise, you would not have to brag about it.

To answer your question. I don't do well at all because I don't prostitute myself on those sites.

I use matrimonial apps instead and come across one gay boy per month who asks about my brother instead of focusing on me. I only date to marry and they always want to find a girlfriend on these apps, especially if you’re actually hot and not fat.

After my divorce, I used a few dating sites and was fairly successful in getting women to date. Most of them ended up with several enjoyable dates. I met my current wife on a dating site.

KennethNoisewater · Answer

It’s been a few years now but I never really liked them. I guess if your into awkward first dates that may be a good option. Personally, I can’t stand first dates. I had more fun and could not even pursue if I didn’t want to because I like doing that stuff the old fashion way. All you got to do really is leave your house. Single people are everywhere. Not everyone will be a home run but it’s a lot more rewarding when you find someone…. And less embarrassing when telling your parents or friends how you met.

I got lots of offers from attractive looking women in the US who were unfortunately mentally very boring.

Nearly every woman who was attractive but also mentally compatible with me, was in southeast Asia, usually Japan. Rarely one in the UK, Russia, or Austraila, or some other foreign country popped up.

I hit pass on every woman either do to location, looks, bad habits, having or wanting kids, or being boring, until none were left to swipe.

Then I deleted my account.

Years later I repeated this proccess, then waited years, then repeated it again.

Same results everytime.

Unless I leave the US, or bend on my age gap limit rule, I'm likely to remain alone because all the compatible women here in my age group are either married, lesbians, or single moms.

I tried Tinder, POF and bumble for 2 months. I got a decent amount of matches but only 2 guys I could hold a good conversation with and was attracted to. Most guys would ask something perverted or say I just want to see where things go Lol. One really good guy I didn't meet because I figured he was out of my league (I sort of regret that one) and the other one I met and he was a total douchebag.. so I deleted all the accounts because I didn't want to bother with men online lol.

AaronKrieger · Answer

I get a lot of matches/likes, but my problem is the conversations, so it often leads no where. Sure, a lot of it is due to incompatibility and I have met some people where we clicked. However, a lot of these people just have bad social skills.

My advice is to just meet people in-person. It's based on connection and less on superficial things. That is probably why conversations often suck on apps, since we prioritize looks on them.

I started dating online after divorcing. I had the most success on Match. As a non-religious guy in Dallas who doesn't date believers, there weren't many possibilities, just a dozen or so when I started, with about one new woman appearing each month. Still I had no problem getting dates, and a number of women contacted me.

ProbablyClueless · Answer

I guess I do alright. Certainly better than the horror stories I've heard from a lot of people (but not a whole lot better).

I got away from dating apps years ago to preserve my mental and emotional wellbeing. It was a great decision.

And interestingly, it hasn't impeded my romantic life at all.

molonski2 · Answer

For a dude my age I do well , although get filtered out a lot , if I can get it to in person , as in I want to take it there ( I never do this quickly ) then I do vastly vastly better.

FreyaRed · Answer

Sex work is legal in my country and girls in this profession exploit dating sites to find customers. As I tried dating apps I was instantly put in the drawer of sex workers.

Nikki1989 · Answer

Still not getting any, so you fill that miserable void in your life by trolling on here? Perhaps the most noble thing you could do is to become an organ donor.

Abbycado · Answer

Lmao. You only have two conversations because of the amount of time you spend trolling here. That’s not doing well. XD

lilBigPotato · Answer

Easy to get many matches but I think that's true for most girls

Gaylordslav · Answer

I dont use it, when I did I only matched with bots, trans, or guys using a female profile. I guess im either very unattractive or have whats called a gay face which women were able to tell before i knew i was gay

BonzoInBitburg · Answer

MemeSupreme · Answer

yeah i did well but its all meaningless like its just something to look at while bored

Vegasrunner · Answer

Haven't really used them much since Covid but I would say OK. I think I ended up banging about 20 -25% of the girls I went on dates with.

Renegade_Sailor · Answer

If I setup the profile right I can pull 50-200 messages a from different women in a day.

bolverk · Answer

Never used them - as the pool of candidates is very small.

Alex-Snow · Answer

I have never had to use one... so far so good!

truecrimelover1999 · Answer

I use Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, Badoo and Facebook dating pretty much daily, and rarely get any matches on any of them. It’s not great for my self confidence tbh.

Anonymous · Answer

I haven't been on for a few years but I still recieve messages. It makes me wonder if women even look at the "when last active".😆

I tried dating apps, with no success. In my opinion, dating apps are useless for most people.
