They aren't gonna just show up randomly at your house and let Timothy hit
Not everyone adopts your method of simping and harassing sloots

It's impossible to cover as much ground physically as it is virtually. The days of just "trash" being on the Apps are over. Now everyone is on the Apps. Does it include trash? Yes. And everything else including quality humans 7s 8s 9s and 10s. I would submit to you that the apps are representative of the entire single population - including the good, the bad and the ugly. Is it a guaranteed panacea? No it's not. You still have to put some work and effort into it. And you better look good and keep your expectations realistic and appropriate for your level.

No he's right. I go to bars and it really is like EOD said (yes really) where people (especially women) work to isolate themselves with their small group of friends. The people at the next table are not allowed to look at them, try to talk to them, etc. I always see women going to bars in small groups then they take a table in the far corner where nobody else is, and just talk among themselves. Try to talk with any of them and at least one of them will tell you to buzz off -- they're trying to have girl time; they don't need some guy trying to talk to us omg go away!

Both but my matches in Toronto are so much hotter than my matches in NY

But the girls out at bars in NY are so much hotter than the girls out at bars in Toronto

New York is good for hand to hand combat at the bar

Toronto is good for dating apps

Can confirm this thread... girls don't go out to bars to meet anyone. They always hang in a massive sloot pack and bitch shields are up.

One thing I'll say is...the benefits are that you don't go out and ruin your body w/ alcohol for a night out "w/ the boys" just to MAYBE get ig's or contacts from chicks at clubs or bars...

But then again if have a solid group of friends who rarely drink or drink a limited amount of hard liquor then it's a win/win being on apps and going out

The main problem with dating apps are the following:

-Women can use angles/filters/older pics to conceal what they really look like.
-People can pass themself off as being something they aren't. IE its hard to get a read on their energy/personality through texts.
-Women have so many options and are spoiled for choice its really hard to stand out/seal the deal.



Yes it can be convenient. But in my opinion its probably easier/more effective to be out and about/meeting girls IRL.

1. frauding is easily spotted. and you can always FaceTime. and/or meet for a quick coffee.
2. same problem exists meeting in person. and it's actually easier to interrogate via text.
3. same problem exists meeting in person.

listen - Apps are not a magic panacea if you are an ugly fat broke dirty creepy slob. you need to looksmax and have your shiit together regardless.

see, i just dont get how you care.

with a bish on a dating app, you know you're not the only one. so why care?

even if you win you get a cheap product

you have a negative mentality. the Apps are representative of the entire single population whether you like it or not - the good the bad and the ugly. my mentality is that i like what i see with her so far and i'm special and unique and offer her something that these other schmoes can't. you can't win if you never play the game. do you have to kiss some frogs along the way? yup. anything worth having needs to be worked for. not handed to you. that's an entitlement mentality.

i think its quite entitlement to think she's special though

sounds to me like youre trying to convince yourself youre important. whereas if you opened up her phone what do you think you'd see?

just saying

i think real relationships are fuken beautiful. but most of this chit sucks nowadays

Dating apps have also made it incredibly easy to meet women in person. They are starved for attention in real life and impressed when a man actually talks to them. Dedsrs

no bro. no mixing of households or finances etc. i'm just looking for someone cool that i actually like and actually want to hang out with like all weekend as opposed to just a smash and dash that i can't wait to escape. i'm monogamous for the right person. it's been a long time since i really liked someone and could stand their presence for more than 12 hours.
