Honestly papi, here is the truth.




***** Avoid dating apps all together (All bots, thots looking for social media likes, ECT) *****









Straight up, as long as you can conversate, are even mildly funny, have a solid job, and are financially independent (not rich... you just have a job, saving, IRA...) then just go out to bars and public places and chat up bishes. Just have fun, don't try to seal the deal... women will do that for you and let you know whats up after a having a good time and vibing with you SRS









In todays day and age, women are so desperate/frustrated looking for a decent brah who can talk, have a good time in-person, and isn't a complete cringe-fest... you will clean up if your a normal social guy. SRS just stay off dating apps and keep it old school, in-person... you will be fine Papi SRS

I've had some success with apps. Met my current GF on hinge. However, I'd like to emphasize my brother's point in the above that this is not often the situation lol. I think most phone apps have turned into a pretty rough environment and you're more likely to catch something on them.

Hit the bar and chat, provided you can maintain a decent conversation and don't break out in a fountain of sweat, you'll be gucci.

I gotta disagree here. Apps are no different then a bar you cant judge anyone based on where you meet them. Theres good girls, and sloots on all these. That said tinder is total trash, explore the others. Ive done WORK on the apps. Instagram is a great way too man. Just put yourself out there cant find a bish sitting on the misc!

Dumbest fkking advice I've read in a while! Hello?!?! Have you been living under a fkking rock the past six months?? There is this thing called the caronavirus. Most bars and clubs are closed. Online dating is where it's at. I've met tons of girls from hinge and coffee meets bagel. It's the best way now until caronavirus goes away.

Hinge was cool for me

Tinder is for Instagram follows

Bumble is for girls to start a conversation with “hey”

Looks at it like this... you might be rusty with the first or second convo you have, but after that you will hit a stride and be on your way. Then you will clap your first set of cheeks as single brah and will be back to your old self SRS

Eh, honestly Rona' hasn't stopped any of my single brahs... they meet women at the gym, grocery store, and most bars around the country are at 50%+ capacity and have outdoor areas/patios where the DJ's and bands play that people gravitate to.





In fact, since the Rona' the pickings are slimmer than ever for women, so if OP goes out and puts his best foot forward, he is going to be doing really well for himself SRS

I used online “dating” before apps were a thing

2 observations:

-if you choose to use them, do not use them as a crutch or you’ll Become dependent on them. Use them as filler or a backup in addition to meeting women primarily IRL
-lower your expectations of apps and don’t put too much energy into them. Overall the women are not wifey material and many of the ones on there are looking for ego validation. However, if you can manage your way through all that you can pick up a very easy smash here and there, so long as you don’t go catching feels. People present a filtered illusion of themselves online.

Sure it's not that bad.... till he wants to visit his parents or grandparents. Then there's good ole Thanksgiving, we all know how many older family members come around. Oh, and we can't forget about jolly good Christmas, gotta trade presents with the entire family. You can go out if you want, I'll wait it out, keep cutting. Hopefully sht clears up by early Spring.

FUrakk! didn't realize OP was Tampa bruh. If I was single today, here is how I'd do it:

Get a solid bro crew together, talking 3 to 5, of some decent looking schlubs. Go to PCI on any given Saturday, works even better during football season cause all the usual jocks are inside watching the games. Throw up the tent, get the yetis filled with liquor, flex some skin, roll up to bar (mask off, cause Florida yo), and talk **** to the hotties). And they are ****ing errrrywhere! Cot damn! Rinse repeat, easy tourist puss for days, sometimes townie puss. God bless. Holla.

EDIT: Observe my weak ass physique in avi, that **** right there plays hard. Don't get me wrong, Jersey & NY will be there juiced out, but if you can talk some easy noise, the bar is easy mode. Love this town.

Throw up the tent, get the yetis filled with liquor, flex some skin, roll up to bar (mask off, cause Florida yo), and talk **** to the hotties). And they are ****ing errrrywhere! Cot damn! Rinse repeat, easy tourist puss for days, sometimes townie puss. God bless. Holla.

EDIT: Observe my weak ass physique in avi, that **** right there plays hard. Don't get me wrong, Jersey & NY will be there juiced out, but if you can talk some easy noise, the bar is easy mode. Love this town.
Isn't Florida a mess right now with Covid numbers?
