It's like an endless cycle of having my heart broken or me breaking some nice girl's heart. I have to juggle multiple women at once to not waste time because chances are these little games last 1-2 dates. This is ridiculous. If you randomly stumbled across your wife without putting in much effort, consider yourself blessed.
Only approach in person. Online dating overrides women to only go on 1-2 dates because they can't decide from the 100s of dudes talking to them and they don't feel the real attraction since 0 approach which is how women start to feel attracted to men since the beginning.
Just ask any man/women who used online dating. Majority of men will only go on 1-2 dates with a girl and a girl the same. The few that manage to get married from online dating is a one sided relationship for a lazy obese women with a handsome man who does everything.
Online dating is not natural which causes women to not fully feel attracted to the man since he never approached her. She is also being hit on by 100+ of men and women have a hard time making decisions so she ends up with none of them.
Men literally have higher chances of getting a gf from online games/dicsord/twitter/etc than dating apps.
If anyone single wants to test then please do because I guarantee you that if you go on dates with 10 different girls that you approached then you will get more than 2 dates. Compared to a dating app where you will get 1-2 dates then get ghosted because she found a new johnson to play with.
Also, you saying "since he never approached her" shows that you don't know how online dating works.
It is true that most dates from online dating stop after 1 or 2 encounters, because both parties have a lot of choice. It's an environment with high competition. Therefore you need to go on many dates before you find the right person, that's part of the game and it's expected.
You can look up any stats regarding "how couples met" and the overwhelming number of couples today meet through dating apps. There just isn't any other way to meet women these days.
> if you go on dates with 10 different girls that you approached
Good fucking luck in getting 10 dates from girls that you approached IRL. Where do you approach them, exactly? On the street?
You're fucking clueless.
"According to a YouGov survey on How Brits Meet Their Partners published in Sept. 2024, 8 percent of us met our current or most recent significant others on a dating app"
The problem is the women won't have the same attraction for men on a dating app as they would if the man approached them in person. Majority of women aren't logical so thinking as if they think the same as men in dating apps isn't going to work.
You can find women in person by walking up to a girl you find attractive and starting a conversation. If you have low confidence then talk to employees at stores/restaurants/conventions/local events/coffee shops/classes(dancing, yoga, art).
Edit to add. Church is another place and some Churches have singles groups
I didn't insult you. I said you're clueless, which isn't an insult because it's only related to the topic at hand and
not to you personally.
> You can find women in person by walking up to a girl you find attractive and starting a conversation.
When was the last time you've done this?
I'm ready to bet that you're a boomer who hasn't approached a woman in decades.
It just does not work like this anymore. Women who are walking around do not want to be disturbed.
I don't think I've ever seen a woman sitting alone in a bar/coffee shop in my entire life.
> talk to employees
Talk to a cashier? Oh lol, yeah that's a good method for looking like a creep and get security/the police involved. Even if she was attracted to you, she would not want to compromise her job.
> Church is another place
Oh yes I'm sure there are a lot of young women in a church.
You starting this whole thread about how we shouldn't be using online dating is absurd. Let me ask you, when was the last time you fucked a *new* woman for the first time? Was it in this millennia?
