You definitely handled that whole thing wrong. On every level pretty much.

I met my wife on Match.com, but that was 13 years ago.

I used the icebreaker route - one of my favorite movies/books is High Fidelity, so I gave her a personal Top 5 list and then asked her to respond in kind.

I have the same complaint as most of you. People just show up looking different from their pics. Guys who claim to be fit but then show up with a beer gut... it's not the extra weight I care about, it's the deception that's annoying.

Online dating is 80% not the way you see them on the photos. It is logical since most people put the most beautiful and "photoshopped" photos. If we want the real deal then we should talk to each other in real life... Which unfortunately happens less and less often.

It would be really funny if we could see the same thread in a girly forum. Here is not the same thing. The girls you attend here are the elite

By the way nice work on your youtube channel.

Unfortunately, with online dating, you're VERY limited in what information you can gather to make a judgment on the other person. Good, diverse, unambiguous, honest profile pictures help greatly, but this also means too much focus is put on the text you send. that's why something like attempted sarcasm that's failed can be the end of the conversation, but usually would not be in person...

To be honest...unless you look like a model and you're on social dating apps, you're wasting your time. They're all fucking delusional; they think too highly of themselves, too highly of what they expect from others, have this imaginary scenario in their minds about how everything should go, 99% have emotional issues, etc. Honestly. Guys and girls both. Meet people in real life. Not necessarily social settings in fact (social settings can actually sometimes put more pressure on meeting someone than not typical social settings), just anywhere. Elevators, local starbucks, chipotle line, gym, etc. once you have some in-person practice down, you'll never go on social dating apps again...

I couldn't agree more, back when i was single i met a few chicks at clubs.

Usually let the girl come to you, i'm quiet in real life, last time i was at a club, standing at the bar watching my buddies on the dance floor, this chick apparently was talking to me i didn't notice at first. She slapped me on the shoulder and said i'm talking to you asshole, I started laughing then she started telling me how her friends were bitches and were jealous of her because she dresses real sexy. Lol
I did take her home, i miss those days!

of course I visited her. We communicated almost every day and traveled long distance for a while to visit each other. Then she ended up moving to be with me. We live together now

Recently went on a date with a girl I met on one of the more serious dating apps. On paper she was perfect...same profession, race, religion, hobbies. We had a great time and talked non-stop.

However, I never got a text back after the one I sent 24 hrs after

Sucks major balls, especially when you don't know what the reason was. Oh well...

[BigDog]

I've tried match and okcupid... went out with all three girls... similar race, religion, background, etc... one was a pharmacist, one was a surgeon, one was a finance person... went out on 2-3 dates with all


Pharmacist and Finance person were both very self absorbed, surgeon was very awkward!

Gonna give up apps for a while I think... dunno if it's a nyc thing, apps thing, or what... but seems like being self absorbed is a common trait ?


Germanauto, which app did you try?

Ghosting seems to be the cool thing to do these days.

Self-absorbed & zero self-awareness is a common thing now. Sad, but true.

Yeah, the complete lack of decency and decorum is a bit wtf... but the flip side is... if this how she is, you dodged a bullet...

Not sure why ppl find it so hard to say, hey sorry... it was a pleasure to meet you, but I think we are looking for different things... best of luck to you

[Mr.SugarSkulls]

Those types of women are just looking to bang.

They've got needs too. They just aren't going to be as upfront as we are.

Might be after free stuff too- but based off those professions listed- none of them (I assume) would be hurting for cash that they'd use men for free dinner.
