Have you tried it? Can it work for long term and serious relationships? not talking anout one night stands.

    Sure can. But it’s better if you fall into a certain statistic. Right off the bat, girls have the advantage. They get way more likes than dudes.

    Statistically white guys get the most likes of any guys. Think you fit that demographic. Then if you can put 6 feet tall even better. if you are like 5 10 I would just put 6 ft because girls are limiting by height.

    Asian girls get the most likes out of any girls.

    So if you are a white guy, or a Asian girl you tend to like it better than a black guy for example.

    I would always be prepared to pay for dinner in this situation. I suppose if she is being a big bitch it’s ok to just leave after saying you need to use the bathroom. There are a few girls who just use it for free dinner but that is actually pretty rare. And even when they say that I think they are just trying to build a emotional wall to not feel rejection themselves.

    Generally she gives you a chance on the condition you pay for her food and that is reasonable to me.

    I don’t consider myself super attractive but I fucked every single girl I met online and had a bunch of fairly long relationships before I got married.

    Not only is it not considered weird. It’s by far the most common way people date now. Like why would I risk my professional status by hitting on the office girl when I can find a girl in demographic I want where if I break up with her I can just block her and ignore her forever? So much less risky.

        Actually now that I think about it, so did I. And I am not a player. Finding a girl that could have a conversation was the hardest part.

          By the time you wine and dine them they are emotionally invested. So are we, but if you make it past dinner you’re probably getting laid. That night or the next date. I played a little bit but I had just gotten out of a long term relationship and was confused and figuring stuff out.

    Yea it can work. I’ve gotten maybe 2 long term relationships from tinder and plenty of fish. One was for 2 years and the other was for 6 months .

    Having said that, I prefer to meet ppl organically. For some reason, work is usually where I meet ppl.

    You could get a fun side job and meet ppl there.

    Anyway, last time I checked the boo dating app had good reviews

    As a girl (I don’t online date anymore)

    But girls get tons of messages. So for me, when I did do online I only talked to dudes I was attracted to who had a nice profile.

    The reason I spent respond to’everyone’ it’s because if I’m not attracted to you why waste your time? Going on a back and forth conversation when I know I’m not interested do you know what I’m saying. Just keep an optimistic outlook on it and you’ll be fine if one dating app doesn’t work try a different one

    I found my fiancé on Tinder, but this all happened in Mexico. In the US I was just settling for chicks I wasn’t even attracted to

    like adult friend finder or back page? not really a one night stand, i’m a repeat customer. i’ve got hte loyalty card to prove it.

  • I have no idea what I would do. If you care for a super Christian perspective read (or listen) to a few of Don Bosco’s dreams/visions.

    I find all of the saints to be inspiring, I find Don Bosco to be absolutely terrifying. He speaks a lot about sexual purity, more so than the other Saints. He is the go to guy for that.

    Don’t listen to his stuff before bed.

    I have my kids. I’ve been married for a nice long time. Were I to find myself in the dating market again, I would remove myself from it as quickly as possible.

    If I could do it over again young but in this modern age… IDK. I’m glad I’m not young.
