I lift for women, and I'm getting tired of being single. What are your guy's experience on dating apps as a fit person? Do women respond well to fizeek photos?
>>34505573I've had luck on Hinge and FB dating. Tho they are want long term relationships. Very workable if you're down for 5s and 6s.
>>34505574I don't mind something long term at this point. I'm 26 and I'm getting too old to waste time now. My mom wants grandkids. I feel like in the real world I can pull better than 5s and 6s, but I'm too retarded to talk to them and usually fumble it. I'd like to think I won't have to surrender too much quality on apps but idk
I've had matches with girls on both Hinge and Bumble, but these women are impossible to talk to. I have no text game, but these women are shit at talking. I have little hope that I'm ever going to find a woman
>>34505573>>34505575I don't understand how you - and people in general - can be too retarded to talk to women and will fumble them, but think you'll manage by meeting them online. At some point you still have to meet her, and if she's from an app, there's literally zero way to build rapport beforehand. As difficult as it is, especially initially, just going up to random women is actually so low-stakes, and allows you to almost immediately assess if you vibe together. Also, you get better at it, so that you become a more interesting person to be around, and can pull better women. The only downside is the rejection can be disheartening, but I don't see how it would be worse than dating apps.Also, you don't have to totally cold approach random women. Just go out places where you're in the vicinity of women, and understand that it's normal to approach in such situations.
>>34505577That's a good point. Although, the last two women I have tried talking to irl were from work and didn't go well. One of them I just totally misread her vibe and I regret even introducing myself. Figured dating apps could be a decent change of pace. In the meantime I'm trying to get better at chatting to girls, very slowly albeit
>>34505573Almost 2 years dating a girl i met from hinge>>34505577If she swiped and is talking to you then she has already not rejected you in oerdon so it's just easier. That being said, i had p no luck in meeting anyone untill she messaged me first.Acktually i did fuck one snusnu big giant who drove a fucking bug.
>>34505576>but these women are impossible to talk toIs an invitation for coffee and/or walk on the park really so hard to communicate to these women? I didn't meet my gf on apps but that's standard procedure I'd think
>>34505573I'm having some nice convos with the girl I matched on fb rn, but other than that the apps are pretty depressing. Even you when you get matched with a cute girl she either ignores you right away or ghosts you after 1-2 messages.
>>34505573yeah they love it. One thing though which makes them go head over heels for you, is dick pics.
>>34505573>28M, 4/10, 5/10 at best>feel lonely>go on Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, you name it>starts liking, get some like but no match>finally get 1 or 2 matches : bot, trans or crazy >It was only the algorithm push, now get 0 matches>Get addicted to these apps because they are manufactured that way, still get no bitches>Talk to one chick>It ends badly>Get depressed and delete everything>Swear off these apps forever>5 months later, I feel lonely> go on Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, you name itIt's not use if you're ugly, women on these apps care about your looks and the lifestyle (beach photos, etc)
>>34505573I'm 29 and been single for about 6 months & have over 1000 matches on tinder. I have 1 shirtless pic in my profile and tinder will actually tell you these days which photo the person who matched you swiped right on. About 20% of the matches I get swiped on my shirtless pic, 80% was face pics. It's really easy to get laid on dating apps, but most of the women aren't dateable at least in my experience. I tried to go on a few actual dates but they were a waste of time compared to women I've met and gotten to know IRL.tl;dr good for quick pussy, face>physique, shit dating exp
>>34505573Dont take pictures of just yourself. Thats all I'll say. Find ways to show your physique in things like photos where you're at the beach with other people. Otherwise, you're just spinning your wheels.
>>34505584Post pic with body
>>34505576Yeah its awkward as fuck to cold introduce yourself to strangers on- or off- line. My best strategy is to get them to meet in public within a week because in person conversation is waaaay easier. If the conversation dies before they accept or even respond to that invitation (which is the majority of matches), then that's just what it is. Stop replying and move on. I don't care if she's hotter than the girl that is replying, because you cant fuck a ghost (also a sexually eager and fun 5/6 is better than a frigid 8-10). If she's going to put in the zero effort just to respond now, that's going to be a look into what dealing with her daily will be like as well. Online dating has the appearance of being an effort game when iys mostly passive fishing. Come check the bait once a day, unless you have a bite, and then go about your day
>>34505573show your physique implicitelyplaying tennis, running at the beach, climbing a wall, never post shirtless pics from bathroom mirror
>>34505577It's pretty easy to build rapport in an app. You just text a bunch first and see what you have in common. The hardest part of meeting new people IRL is the initial approach. This eliminates that, thus the entire process is easier. Both sides are agreeing to the initial contact. It's easy as fuck.
yeah I got laid with bathroom shirtless selfie but tinder is catfishy as fuck. lots of women who look hot in pictures and are horrendous irl. and generally you don't want more than a quick fuck with the women who you will meetbut shirtless pic does get you laid
>>34505585>>34505588I don't have any candid photos of myself like that, but heard, no shirtless selfies. I always kinda felt that was a cringey thing to do anyways
>>34505573>I lift for womenkek
>>34505588>never post shirtless pics from bathroom mirrorThis is true, but you can do shirtless if it's in a situation where that's expected. At a beach, etc. Watersports.
>>34505586I'm not posting my thirst traps here nigga, it's just me in the bathroom after a shower, my physique isn't even great by /fit/ standards, just pretty good and the photo has nice lighting
It’s hit or miss.Dating apps were way more fun 10 years ago before they started commercializing every single part of them.I’ve gotten laid a few times from using the apps, but don’t expect an abundance of matches—real life is much better when it comes to attraction.
>>34505589>build rapport>text a bunch and see what you have in commonThese are not even related.
>>34505573Let me be frank with you
>>34506274It's the context you fucking drooling retard, you're meeting on a DATING app, the intent? DATINGYou ELIMINATE the guessing game of: 1) is she single? 2) is she looking for someone? 3) is she attracted to me?4) do I have the balls to bother her and ask? I may face consequencesI'm not even that anon, I just came here to post this because yeah, dating apps help..ALSO: QUESTION for all the bros using apps:I used to not get matches at all, now I get a match or two a week (across several apps), but they're clearly all low ELO women, it makes me think - if I pay they explicitly say that they put you in the priority stack. So before the order was 1) minmaxed profiles followed by 2) mid people and the restAnd now it looks like the order is: 1) paid minmaxed profiles 2) free minmaxed profiles 3) paid mid profiles 4 free mid profilesThe ordering of 2 and 3 may be switched, this is up to projection, but in any case - it seems like the meta now is that there's two lanes - the free and the paid people, with the paid people being shown more often and probably being shown to more normal, higher ranking people, and at better app use times too.So my question is, as a guy who gets some matches on the free version, will paying help me get more matches? Please share your experiences across different apps with paid vs non paid, thank you!
>>34506304I was the anon that that anon was replying to, and you are 100% correct here.
>>34506304You're not in a position to call anyone a drooling retard when you're unironically considering spending money on dating apps.
>>34506323I know that it sounds bad on paper, but I think in the real world people did meet their so's on dating apps. I think that every graph you look at today, you see that meeting someone from online is the top place people meet nowadays. I personally met every single gf I had online. I think that trying is better than not trying, and in the real world I'm too scared to try. Dating apps aren't a magic button, I know that it's difficult because I'm in it, but ever since I lost weight I went from no matches to getting matches, and I even had a short relationship of 2 weeks which turned into a great friendship and we still cuddle and do stuff together, this is leagues better than being alone. So yes like a lot of things you can judge it, but you certainly can't say it doesn't work because I've experienced it and now I'm a believer
>>34505573OP you're a retard. With the extremely rare exception, women don't care for a fit body. Women don't like the male body in general, it doesn't appease them like their bodies do us. You're appealing to the male gaze. Just be lean, that's what most women prefer, if anything.
>>34506619>Bro stop being fit bro >Trust me Let bro be /fit/ bro, ain't nothing wrong with being fit, it is in fact objectively better than being lean without being fit. But yeah we all gonna make it, lean is already past the threshold of "I can consider him a human being", op is just fitmaxxing
>>34505584get off 4chan bro you don't belong here
>>34505573>I lift for womenTranny mindset.
