I asked about her job early yesterday morning. He hasn't hit me back I know people get busy, but I wasn't sure what the proper etiquette was. I know double texting is a big no no. At the same time, do I break that rule after some time has past? I'm kind of at a loss. Maybe she just isn't interested, but I figured she would just unmatch. any update? nothing wrong with texting her again a day or two later to see if she wants to get together.

GHARMON9 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 (edited) Dating Apps suck. I say work on yourself, physically and financially. When those two aspects of your life are good you will naturally be confident. Go out and meet people without the intention of looking for a partner. Go out to enjoy yourself and people will gravitate to you. I promise. Edited December 21, 2021 by GHARMON9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go out to enjoy yourself and people will gravitate to you. I promise. I don't know about the first part of this statement (because I was sorta broke and pretty fat when I met my wife) but I agree 600% on this part. People will gravitate to you if you're having a good time - when you're living in the moment, not concerned on what people of the opposite sex see in you or what you're looking for in them. Just be in that moment - enjoy it, laugh a lot, dance a lot, flirt with no expectations - remind yourself that you are the best version of yourself at any given moment in your life, and others will see that best version of yourself every time they're with you. (This applies to everything, not just dating - believe you're the best version of yourself and you will be). Confidence and charisma are sexy. Harness that and you'll find what you're looking for, without really looking for it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are looking for more than just a hookup on a dating app like Tinder, you're not going to have great luck. Purely anecdotal, but I have a bunch of single friends, chicks and dudes, and they only ever used Tinder for hookups. My one good friend recently moved to an 'actual dating' site (Match I think?) because he wanted something more serious and he had much better luck instantly. I don't think that was a coincidence.

I have a couple of them. II find it funny that the majority of girls on these state they don't want FWB or hookup when the stats show otherwise. If you go on reddit there are a ton of dude that are having issues. So maybe my profile is just trash, or a combination of things. This whole thing is a really unfun puzzle.

I'm pretty sure I would fail miserably. Creating an attractive profile like that is just not something I'd want to do or be able to do without serious help. Good luck out there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh dude, it's not easy at all - I get it, it was pretty damn tough for me. Like working out and getting your finances in order, it takes work and discipline. But if you put the work and discipline in to remind yourself you're the best version of yourself and you're worth it, you'll see it pay off in spades. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twslhs20 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I get a message this morning saying sorry I really suck at replying on these things. I said all good everyone is busy with the holidays and would she prefer my number. Then she disappears and doesn't respond. jaguarsfan.gif 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
