Is online dating pointless for almost all straight men? (Page 2)

Question

As I see it, online dating is pointless for almost all straight men. Why?1. Women are suspicious of single guys anyway: "Why is he single? What's wrong with him?" A guy who is so single that he needs to resort to online dating must be a loser: that's how women see it.2. Women get far more 'approaches' online than offline. Even a below-average woman would be difficult for a guy, of whatever quality, to get online. Online, you're competing against all the usual guys, plus all the shy guys who don't approach offline. I think the only straight man who should resort to online dating is one who looks like a supermodel (and therefore is good enough to overcome problem one and problem two) but who isn't charming (and therefore isn't successful with offline approaches).

It does make it harder for both sexes, to get a relationship going, when it's online. And in my opinion, everyone is way less attractive on the internet, than they are in real life.

Dating apps are specifically designed to keep people single. Them introducing you to your soulmate is bad for business. They make money by having long term customers.
