re: Any of you fellas on the dating sites

Man, I don't disagree but, the sad fact of the matter is you have to fish where the fish are. If you find yourself single and middle aged your social circle can be small due to your friends all being married with kids. You might not find wife material on those sites but, you can definitely date and have a good time.

Agreed, frustrating and makes no sense but, I'd assume she's given her number out to other guys also. And you really don't know if the intent is to meet in person or just a girl looking for an ego boost. When I was on the sites I'd try to get face to face asap. I can only be charming over text for so long.

She's going on other dates or letting other dudes pipe her then texts you back on days where she didn't have anything scheduled. You need to move from messaging or phone calls to in person as fast as possible. There are 100s of dudes messaging her per day. (Most) Women on dating apps have no interest in texting or talking on the phone for a week before a meetup.

That isn't true in major cities. There are legit 9s and 10s on there, but good luck getting them to respond.
I think your chances are way better in person.

Bumble was the only one worth a shite. Seemed like classier broads on there. Girls have to talk first, making them feel in control and safer, thus vulnerable
Yeah, the only issue is most of them just said "hey" as their first message and put the onus back on you to capture their attention with your first message. Defeated the whole purpose. I only had 1 match on Bumble that ever went anywhere, I had the most success on Tinder. And even then, I first got the app in 2013 or so and haven't been on again since I met my now wife in 2019, and in those 6 or 7 years it was pretty sparse that I would get matches that led to actual meetups, but I did get the most from Tinder. Generally my most success was from girls that were from out of state that were here temporarily for school.
A few notable ones, one from Alabama that was going to LCI to be a pastry chef. One from Vancouver that had been all over the country at various vet schools and was at LSU's vet school at the time. One from the Philippines that was doing an internship in NOLA. One from Houston that went to LSU and stayed here because she got engaged but then it fell through before they got married. The last one I actually almost officially dated instead of just being frick buddies with but then she moved back to Houston and I wasn't going to move with her because I had a stable house and job I wasn't willing to ditch, so we just broke it off because I don't do the long distance thing.

I've never played women's bullshite games and I'm not starting now.
I clearly communicate, in person, my interest/intentions. If they can't do the same, then it's on to the next one.
It's not like there's a shortage.

Remember; women on average, find 80% of men to be physically unappealing and are all chasing the same men. They’d rather share a high quality man than hang out with the leftover men. Whereas men are far less discerning . Which means she has already received 27 hits today while you got one. If you are getting slow-played , if there is no genuine urgency, the odds are she is just not that into you. If she likes you, you will know. She won’t be hit or miss, she will set her sites on you and it will be unmistakable and she will be matching you text for text. Remember, you can’t manufacture attraction, it has to be real. Don’t chase what isn’t there.
My unsolicited advice, get off the dating sites.I fell in love with a girl I met on a dating site, but overall I think it it better to meet women organically where your vibe and personality and intelligence and verbal game and playfulness can really shine.
Also, remember the odds go back in your favor once the relationship is established because while she is the sexual gatekeeper, you will be the relationship gatekeeper. You get to decide if the relationship is long term once the connection is genuine and mutual.

8 years later I still give my wife shite about it.

And if you do start having sex with her she'll put your picture on the FB group "Are we dating the same guy" to get all the other lonely bitches in Baton Rouge to gossip about you.

She ain’t “too busy” for Ray Ray

Go for a date ASAP on apps. Like, within the first 10 minutes of texting. Spend as little time on the phone as possible before the first date. Write a message that’s funny that stands out, but fits with your personality. Don’t be needy and don’t “care” about the outcome because 95% of these people aren’t worth most of our time anyway.
Mine would be something like this: “(name), I would fight 3 mountain lions in a McDonald’s bathroom for you.” Then some blah blah for a few minutes. Ask her out to drinks and give her a few options for which evenings. If she can’t do it, ask her when she’s free. If she says something boring or non-responsive like “I’ll let you know”… move on, she’s an entitled bitch who already views you as low priority.

That's because you're one of about 20 that she's talking to. Just cut bait and move on.

Man, that's some solid advice right there.

No. I get a number and try to get a date within 3 days at max
If she’s flakey or it lingers without meeting too long less likely to succeed

This is actually a real problem and I’ve been in it twice in Nashville. Total cock block character assassination from women. Even if you’re a “good guy” by their standards, everyone already sees you as “he’s been around”
The League is really the best one but I’ve been out of the game for a while. It gives you only 3 potential matches a day but way higher quality and the women aren’t getting hit up 50 times a day. Bumble and Tinder I guess you can have some luck, but even the super good looking rich guys settle for average chicks and consequently, the average chicks now think they deserve a super good looking rich guy (until he bails) because they keep swiping right.

This.
The amount women I've met / went on dates with that talked about how this was their 10th time reinstalling the dating app over the last couple years was astounding.
Women will get hundreds of matches and messages, only actually reply to a few, go on a few dates, then they're off the app "to work on themselves".
Very few women on these apps are actually looking for something long term.
For most guys, the apps are a complete waste of time.

"I'd fight 3 mountain lions in a McDonalds bathroom for you."
Lol that's a good ice breaker to make yourself stand out. My fave was "I'd walk bare foot through 3 miles of broken glass just to hear you fart over a walkie talkie."
