I didn't realize how bad it really is for men.

A woman I know put up a profile on POF last night and within 18 hours got 323 responses. She is not a hot, young supermodel either. She's a 65-year-old smoker with average looks. I can only imagine how many responses pretty young thangs get.


Good luck out there all you online PUA baws..

That's because the dudes online are


Basically if you don't have model looks you aren't getting many bites, not quality ones at least.

That's why it's way better to meet women out and about. You can make them laugh or interest them with something other than looks.

Whatever, man. Online dating is a revelation. I don't even have to leave the shitter to get dates with women.

If only they knew how much literal shite talking I've done to get them to go out with me...

ETA POF is for cattle. Bumble is where it's at.

Not necessarily. I live in a rural area, 25 miles or so from nearest town of any size, and even then, the opportunities are limited outside of the bar scene. While the bars were fun in my younger years, after my divorce in mid 30's I just didn't have the same zeal for it. While I still hit the town on occasion, met women, got laid, etc I decided using a dating site would expand my options. I do not look like a movie star. The best way to describe myself is I'm a handsome guy from certain angles in dim light. But I have the ability to make women laugh, confidence bordering on cockiness, and am comfortable talking to strangers. I spent a little time developing a profile that intrigued women and while I won't claim to be the champion of bedding babes from online dating sites, I had sexual encounters with women from both match.com and e-harmony. By the time Tinder became a thing, I was in a relationship with my now wife who I met the traditional way so I have no experience with it though I hear it's like shooting fish in a barrel.

It's a woman's market for sure.

Try Bumble. Pretty much the same concept of Tinder, except the woman has to message first when a match is made.

Talking with a few women, they prefer it over Tinder as they control how many conversations they are in at one time instead of 300 different people hitting them with ridiculous pickup lines.

There are two rules

1. Be attractive
2. Don't be unattractive.
