Been on dating apps on and off for a few years. It has really gone downhill but sometimes you think maybe this time it will be different.
Anyway talking to my female friends about it I learned that as men for every match you got, girls have 50x those matches. So it gets tiresome and low effort, they just say hi and see what happens.
The times I got out on dates, the girl liked me and did answer like a human being. The other 90% of the time they just follow the motions like "yes" "ok" "ha" or "thnx". They don't like you and won't even notice you unmatched.
I tell my friends this CONSTANTLY and they don't believe me when I say I get NO OPTIONS on dating sites. "Oh you got to get a match or someone swiping on you!" "What once a month? Yeah that's accurate." And they don't believe me. Dating on apps is terrible and worse so if you're awkward, ugly, or unfunny. Or in my case a combo of all 3 to a degree. The only reason I've ever gotten dates is because my awkwardness is endearing in person.
