Online dating thread

Online dating thread

I started this as a thread where 2+2 members could share advice on online dating. I'm 25 years old, and have had trouble finding a GF in person, so I've decided to try the online route.

I admittedly have no game when it comes to girls, as I'm a natural shy person, so I'll mostly be on the receiving end of the knowledge. As I improve, I'll share the wealth. :-)

From poker I've learned how helpful it is to have an advisor to give you advice and encouragement, and sympathize with you when you fail.

For starters, what are the best sites out there for free, and what sites are worth laying the money down for a subscription ? I'm on POF and OKcupid.

I dunno, there seems to be a fairly recent trend of some girls saying or at least implying therapy is a prerequisite even. I’ve seen it in quite a few Bumble profiles too. To me it’s not a promising sign and gives off vibes of being demanding, inflexible and presumptuous


When girls neg you it’s time to ditch them.


Yeah man that’s an Insta gtfo from me. Presumptuous entitled bullshit.

Idk, I only seem to meet normal sane women so far. Maybe I’m weeding them out at profile stage.

I connected with a woman the other day whose profiles gave off red flags but was v hot so I liked her and started talking but the crazy in her was pretty obvious. She’s like a 45 min drive away and wanted me to come over late night and I think was legit surprised when I said no. Even though I’m sure it would be good sexy time I just don’t want the hassle.

Decision was confirmed when I got 3 paragraphs of weirdness from her after. Also a good advert for not giving her my phone number so I can just unmatch and move on

A girl who says you need to see a therapist seems like a girl who

1. Doesn’t want you.
2. And thus doesn’t want to **** you.

I’ll be honest- I don’t want to go into it but she’s right and told me I should see one because I self sabotage etc. I told her a lot about my life and she actually said some really smart things to me last night.

I don’t think she will date me long term bc I have prolly spazzed on dates on what I said but I think there is slight chance she will. Lol she told me I was guy she was hanging most with and via text- I felt she likes me and has shown signs of interest. (Has sent cute flirty texts that no girl has sent to me). Took one of my sweatshirts and sent me pics in it, told me she wants to see me before our planned date, etc.


Don't over think it, continue to talk to her and see how it goes, there's no rush right now.
And if it goes nowhere, its not the end of the world

Her telling you that you’re the guy she likes the most is her way of letting you know she’s getting ****ed by someone else. She prob is the kinda person who gets anxious by the truth and says the opposite to make herself feel better. Which means she prob likes you the least

If you’re hanging out with her on Friday then she likes you the most. Saturday maybe. But if not then she’s hanging out with other guys and she likes that you pay for dinner

I think it’s mix of last 2 posts here. I went on date with her today and we got dinner (she offered to pay but I said I’ll handle it whatever) and we got ice cream after and she paid. We then walked. Lol I tried to hold her hand but she told me her ex bf lives in town we were at lmao. I then asked her about that is text and was like that is really weird: she said she goes on dates with multiple guys and doesn’t want to be seen as skeevy lmao. I dropped her off at her place- no invite lmao.

Yea gotta be honest, I think this chick could have been into me but I came off so poorly on date 1 and 2- she thinks I need therapy yada yada and prolly thinks I’m not the right guy to settle down with long term (aka she’s not going to F me). I’ll do one more dinner with her but like I’m 99% sure it’s going to be me picking her up and taking her back to her place and no sex. After that, I’ll just cut bait. I’m going to vegas next week so should be good. Idk this girl is really awesome and beautiful but I def get vibe she’s not going to want me. It’s quite pathetic bc if I came off well on date 1 and 2- I’m 100% sure she would have been dtf. My fault honestly. Will keep thread posted here but trust it’s not going anywhere- maybe can find something in vegas but idk I’m drained lately with dating.

I went out with other girl and played pickleball- she’s so god damn delightful and nice to me (not as pretty as other girl). Then I go out with chick I find sexy and she’s like kinda nice to me but we don’t even have great convo and I can just tell she can get any guy she wants / prolly dates around a ton. While the other girl doesn’t. It’s just mildly infuriating- only thing I can tell is I def need to see a therapist prolly sadly bc I botch dates so poorly. I think most girls just ghost me on date 1 while a nice girl might tag along for a little. Laughable- please feel free to bash jk here. My self esteem is literally in the gutter.


If girls like you then you can’t **** it up. If they don’t like you then you pretty much can’t change their mind.

This right here should be inserted into the OP of this thread.

Undeniable facts right here. Words to live by. Words to be inspired by. Certainly not "Pointless Words" by PointlessWords.


Had date number 3 with girl. It was really fun tbh. I grinded for 2 hrs. We drank for free and then went back to her place

Before we start messing around we have been talking about exes. She spits something out like “well it’s not like how it used to be when we would go hunting for other couples”

“Like swingers??”

“Oh I should tell you I don’t do monogamy”

Now this was a small hit to my ego but it’s really the best thing for a playerman like me; I’m not going to be exclusive with one girl lol. I’m crushing it on tinder rn and don’t have a roommate


doesn't do mo0nogomy huh as long as you dont fall in love or get in a relationship with her .. you're golden man, keep doin your thing


Wanna laugh folks? I somehow kinda got out of friend zone with chick. Took her to steakhouse Friday night- I dressed very well and felt I held my composure well bc I know she likes me now per our text convos. She invited me back to her new apartment and we got the deed done haha. Girl is cool- gf material no doubt but she def plays head games.

Told me before date 3 we should be friends- then on date 4 she see me in a new light and says I look super handsome etc. I feel I come off super poorly before know a girl likes me but still this girl is def all over the place. We are hanging today- and I go to vegas on Wednesday: not sure I’m going to try hard in vegas. I’m looking solid with physique and dress now: might just go to a few edm shows at night and try to drink minimum and see if I can converse well- I need practice not getting hammered at busy clubs so trying to keep myself at a 3 drink max. I feel I do very well in Vegas and don’t have to try super hard- like normally girls will check me out and I’ll start a convo and it’s game on. Not sure how much I plan to go out though bc doing well in poker > women for a vegas trip honestly.

Have a first date set up in Albany day before I leave in vegas. Girl looks cute and fashionable so might grab a beer with her. I kinda wanna stop trying to see multiple girls at same time bc it’s annoying but I feel girls fall off so easily (so not trying would be bad move). I’m friends with another chick I met on an app who is a drinking partner- we like to help each other out when we go drink on weekends which is always nice. I’m going to start seeing a therapist also just to work on confidence issues- hoping that helps me going forward: I def have some self esteem issues that need to be ironed out.


Not uncommon for azn girls to tell you what they think you need to be doing. I think it’s mostly a cultural thing, real direct in that way. When they get to grannies they definitely won’t be shy about it lol.

I wouldn’t read that as a sign of disinterest, agree it is demanding. Won’t stop you from getting to the [emoji192] if that’s what you’re after. For LT, would be a red flag for me, would rather hear some introspection lol.


I match with a ton of Asian women on tinder but they all seem so ****ing passive when messaging that I’m yet to meet one.

I never seem to get beyond a 1 sentence answer from them (plus a few emojis obvs) and I just get bored and move on


I went on a date with a crazy girl who was clearly bipolar with borderline disorder and zero interest in any affection. I took her to a nice sushi restaurant spent $125

Then we went to a casino and got two drinks a piece. She would share her last drink with me after I finished my drinks early. I knew the date wasn’t going anywhere at the restaurant. I shouldn’t have gone to the casino but I wanted to try

I asked her if she had a high sex drive via text a few hrs after I dropped her off and I got blocked.

Her profile said cute but psycho. I could tell she was bipolar from her eyes but she had great tits and they often **** really well so I said why not

There's a good chance that they're interested but english is not their first language so it's harder for them to invest a lot.

I'm sure they're interested (rock solid confidence and self image ftw!), I just want some kind of connection other than physical. IDK, prolly should just meet one and see how it goes, albeit I dread meeting one and just sitting there having a stilted conversation

good point re first language, albeit in Australia we have a very large 2nd and 3rd gen Asian population


Asian women is (as I understand) the demographic that is by far the most in demand on dating sites so (generalising) they have the most inclination to be passive and detached and just let the most attractive guys fight for them

But also since there may be language barriers and cultural differences where these women may be more passive anyway, it can be hard to figure out where you stand when you’re trying to interact with them.

I have had so little success with (east) Asian women compared to other demographics I basically don’t even swipe right on many of them any more.

And while ‘western’ second-generation immigrant Asian girls may be less inclined to be passive due to cultural differences, they are still inclined to just not even consider guys of a certain level due to the sheer amount of interest they get.

I guess they’re also more likely to get overwhelmed and disillusioned with online dating for the same reason and not even stick around on the sites long enough to give many guys a look-in in the first place


I dunno, I think the actual race of the asian person is a big indicator of their preference and personality.

FROM MY EXPERIENCE i found myself more attracted to philapino or laotian due to them being more easygoing and friendly.

Chinese want to know what your social status is, and koreans want to know how big you are.

And Japanese are just kinda racist.

YMMV

My wife is Korean and I met her on Tinder. On the whole, I typically found dating Asian girls through online dating to be easier than most, and found I got much more positive attention from Asians than other girls.

I remember there was an app called Coffee Meets Bagel where they typically only gave you one match per day that was supposed to match you especially well. But sometimes it could give you multiple matches if the girl matched you first. I got a -lot- of additional matches on this app. But they were almost always Asian doctors in Manhattan. And I didn’t really live close to Manhattan or want to date someone in Manhattan (I lived in NE Pennsylvania at the time), so the app ended up being pretty pointless.


long story short, I banged my other neighbor. She requested it, so I obliged. it was pretty hot, she had been sending me nudes for the past few weeks. said she had a boring birthday. I asked her if she wanted me to **** her. She said prob later that week.

She texts me a few hrs later, wyd? She comes over. We kiss for a few minutes, then go into my bedroom. I finger her a little and tease her clit

she takes her pants off and bends over on my bed. I throw the condom on and start giving it to her. She looks back at me and says "is that all youve got?"

I tell her to lay down flat on the bed. I mount her from behind. I get in real deep and start digging her out. Everytime I go deeper and deeper until I reach the end. Then I just keep shoving my dick into her pussy and everytime I reach the end of her pleasure tunnel, she moans. I stuff her head into my bed and **** her as hard as I can.

She loves it

I ask her if I can cum. She says shes ready.

it was dope

five minutes later a diff neighbor asks me to come over and have a smoke

lol


Jesus, I want to wash my eyes out. Surely just random graphic bragging about having sex isn’t what this thread is for?

I know you've had some bad beats caused by your separation but being subjected to this thread now might be the worst one.


Yeah somehow I feel like his audience here isn’t the bunch of fellow horny 19 year olds he seems to think it is
