Fuk the 2nd one and lose your virginity.

You need experience with women so you aren’t awkward and terrible in bed when you meet a decent girl.

I've said it a few times before, but I've always had much better results off the apps than on them.

But with a lot of guys they would rather stick with the apps, which imo might say something about why they struggle so much with the dating scene

Thats sad to hear, Hinge was king of high quality girls 4 or so years ago when I last used it.

Personality wise, she's GF material, and I am a lot pickier about personality than looks. But looks wise... she'd fit right in with these Hinge feed pics.

Apps make me want to blow my face off, and I am well aware that it could be another 6-12 months before I even say hello to another single girl IRL. But this is a real looks-threshold test brahs. Like can the little guy get it up.
Apps are hardly a barometer for success. I never get matches online or when I do it is a girl who's a 3 or 4. Meanwhile IRL it's pretty regular to get girls flirting with me and I have a chance with half the girls at the breastaurants I go to...as in I at least pass the looks test. My case may be more extreme than you but I almost stopped reading when I saw "reinstalled hinge". For someone like you all that app will do is crush your confidence, as per this thread. Stick to IRL. Joining kickball leagues helped cause at least you're meeting a girl that could lead to something else. Either way it will be good practice and give you confidence for the next step. Stick to irl and give it time. Delete all of your apps. No girl on a dating app has the personality you're looking for and if they do then they would not give you a chance when theres 6'3 jacked all-american boyos on there too.
Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

I gave up on them. After getting two dates, I realized that I just didn't want to saddle up for the whole app funnel again. Write 500 questions or jokes on sloots' prompts, get 10 matches, 9 of them randomly stop responding, 1 agrees to meet up for a date, they ghost after that date... I just can't get motivated to spend another $50 and write another 500 comments just to do that again.

Like phuck. I know it's a numbers game, but it's a lot of numbers and a lot of flakiness. It's literally all the bullchit of an online job hunt without any of the professionalism.

i dont want to be mean but some people are just straight up un-dateable. too much red flags and mental issues stemming from abuse from former partners and family members. that too much chasing chad, been so jaded and insecurity, despite being 4/10 and overweight.

yup. not sure these women that have double digit counts including chads will ever be dateable again in a serious way. i see them all the time on fb in and out of relationships, cutesy pics laying in bed with another man 3 months later. they are clueless

In my observation it’s only really the bolded part that renders a woman truly un-dateable.

Many men will date, chit will even MARRY, absolutely vile, horrible, fuked up women if they are at least relatively decent looking.

All that paying , writing witty comments , that doesnt matter chit on apps

What matters on apps is your level of attractiveness , period.

You guys pick the most superficial form of dating and think you can beat the system by writing witty comments and paying. Doesn't work like that.

If you are 5'6 dating apps probably aren't going to work for you regardless of how witty you come across.

That's a fact.

This, but the last part needs to be corrected to “What matters on apps is your level of PHYSICAL attractiveness”.

Men of average physical attractiveness are mostly wasting their time on apps, thus, if you are BELOW average physical attractiveness, then you really have no place being on any of the apps.

Faphgt is 5'6 - you could have the most thought out well written comments and messages, but the moment a dude on there who has a higher perceived value hits them up - all that is out the window

And he is 5'6 and doesn't even lift - he certainly doesn't help his own cause there

Exactly what I mean by if you are 5'6 and don't even lift = don't even bother. Find a more traditional form of dating .

That chit and all of social media is such a facade

Imagine the lying going on on there. Dudes are making themselves look as good as possible. With outright lying and close to lying or embellishing. Then increase the pool of guys to extraordinary amounts and if you have a middling profile , youre just not gonna get many matches

But i will say honestly if you get matches youre already talking about better girls most likely

Op is an electrical engineer. Needs to go ham on advertising that. And step up his flaunty game. And then advertise that on there

@ 5'6 youre gonna need to take a few caught on camera vacations, buy nice and flashy clothes and flash a lifestyle

All of these are things "chads" are doing and then downplaying it

Youll def. Increase your pool. Im not sure that will be genuime connection, but it may be better than nothing

Exactly bro . This is what he needs to do

I don't mean to sound superficial , but blatantly below average guys in terms of attractiveness don't stand much of a chance on apps in landing someone decent.


And I've seen fapght build ...if you are 5'6 and have a skinny-fat build, well then you might want to start actually lifting to up your perceived masculinity.

I don't have that kind of cash, brah. I put $20k/yr into my 401k and like $7k/yr into my crippling golf habit, and after that, there isn't much left. I couldn't even afford a new Civic, not without basically taking it out of retirement.

is 20k your contribution to your 401k or only your employers?

if it was yours i'd take 2 of that and take a vaca, and maybe another one

then buy some stuff as i said. maybe do it over a bit so it doesn't hit as hard

but in the end, maybe you take a year off from such significant saving for retirement to invest in getting poosy.

still not draining you but more than you've put in now. and maybe you'll see more results

If a hiring manager "matches" with you for a screening call, he'll progress it to a first-round interview 99% of the time. He'll propose days he's open, ask about your schedule, and you both find something that works. He'll show up there on time. He'll read your resume beforehand, and will have more questions ready than "all right, now entertain me." And even if you flop the interview, he'll hear you out to the scheduled time.

With sloots, every one of those is optional.
