If you want to meet this type of girl, it seems like a good idea would be to hang out at an abortion clinic, or the bar/coffee shop, across the street.

These apps don’t make money by getting you into a steady viable relationship. They make money by dangling a carrot in front of your face and say run bitch.

Have you tried going out and actually meeting women?

i certainly don't but i left my settings as default just to get as wide of an audience as i can -- although i do see your point and agree with it.

Careful with that. These days you could end up laces out with a Finkle

Same non-physical characteristics you like in women . Just chat em up, handle the rejection gracefully and profit. You can do it, Tiger.

I've been on a few dates with one woman over the course of several months. it was great, until it wasn't. i met her through a work connection (she is in sales and supports the company i work for). she ended up having suffered a lot of trauma from two failed relationships. went from extremely hot to frigid over the course of a weekend, after, arguably we had our best date to date. she even said it. she started getting feels and sabotaged it.

Get off the apps
Get involved in your community
Get involved in your profession. Hooking up at work is a bad deal these days, but meeting women at other companies is fine.
Be willing to be set up by your friends
Put yourself out there

i have some married female friends (i have no interest in dating any married woman) who have some very good looking friends. i don't know the status of each of their friends, but i suppose there is a single lady or two mixed in there.
would it be appropriate to reach out to them to see if they could introduce me to any of them? i can handle it from there.

Churches, absolutely, but approaching women in public now is seen as creepy and stalkerish. Same for gyms.

i am so discouraged with dating apps.
I have felt this way for a really long time. I can completely understand how you are feeling. A lot of women on the mainstream dating apps like Tinder and Bumble don’t put much effort into it (many have little to nothing on their profiles besides pictures). You also have to overcome the fact that most dating apps have a significantly higher percentage of male users than female users. It can really discourage a guy and make him feel like it’s worthless.
I tried a Christian dating app called Upward not really expecting much but I had good success and met my girlfriend on there. I couldn’t believe I actually found someone that I liked on a dating app, but it’s been going really well.
It might be a good idea to take a break from the apps for a while. Maybe try some other methods of meeting women. Hang in there, man.

might be worth a look. my only concern is there might not be a large pool of women, but then again, that might be good that it is a smaller pool in general, i.e., less men too.

wasting too much money on these apps. is match a better option because you actually have to put thought into it?
You shouldn't have to spend any money. Maybe if you rack up a ton of likes that you can't see, pay the $10 or whatever it is once so you can see who all has already liked you and swipe on them. Hinge is the only one left that's somewhat legit. Thing about that one is most attractive girls just post their profile then sit back and wait on guys to like them. I rarely had girls like me on there, but once I put myself out there and liked them they usually responded

Travel is a great way to meet women if they're with their gfs. Buy them some drinks, isolate the one you want, separate her from the pack and make your move. Do not leave without trading cell numbers as "the call" could come at any time. Text as soon as you leave to show interest and confirm communications.
I drink very little too but it's definitely possible to fake drink around drinkers and they not notice.
Be second nature before you know it.
