They all suck. Your best bet is increasing your exposure and using as many as possible.
Tinder gets points because its frequently the most used in each area.
Bumble and Hinge below that.
If youre ugly, youre just going to have a harder time unless you put some effort in because youre usually competing with more men for a smaller pool of women. Especially something like Duolicious is going to be several fold men to women.
I found mine off bullshitting with people in YouTube comments. Today id just meet people irl. Id recommend this if you dont want it to feel like a gauntlet, humiliation ritual etc cause its the more organic way. The way ive seen male and female coworkers swipe on people on those apps is nuts. No one's giving you the time of day in reading a single thought you wrote. Its nothing like the old okcupid. Furthermore 80% of the sites are owned by one company thats profiting off you staying on the apps as much as possible.

Okay how about chat sites like Omegle and Kik or Discord?

>>34906249
No idea what Kik is. Just looked it up and looks like its mostly used for cheating. Looks like it was popular 10-15 years ago so gonna pass.
I've only ever found low effort fags on discord before I deleted mine. Ymmv. Im guessing youre trying to find a specific cup of tea. The problem with that is you could be interacting with someone from Atlantis. You may find someone to goon with you but they will never put in the effort to meet you. Last person I spoke to that found one was dating 8 years before one of them put in the effort to fly to the other. I think it just sets up a precedent of low standards so what you put in is what youre gonna get. Its a pass for me.
I've never heard of a relationship from omegle and only used it for trolling. I could see it working because it puts you in a situation where youre immediately face and voice chatting the person. It'd prob work best in a first world country where theres more users from your area. I mean if its one of those sites you already use just to have fun in theres no harm if a relationship comes out of it. If you dont enjoy just bullshitting with others like that id pass. I've spoken to people that found others in social online settings like gta rp or discord but it seemed like it was a rough time 90% of the time. The only good one I heard was when the person was willing to fly to another country to meet the person.

I'm not the namefag but let me chime in

All those things you listed are valid and even YouTube comments got that guy his tranny gf, and people find them in league of legends, fuckin TikTok lives, all kinds of crazy places. Roblox if you're willing to get ******f r e a k y*******

So I'm not here to diss that, but I'm here to tell you something that I think is better:

Workout + good pose + good clothes + impeccable hair and facial hair + tinder/bumble/hinge

This absolutely works the best. I honestly think that your time will be spent much better if you work on your body and looking good, stay on the down low until then (it's not like you were going to get much during this period anyway, just view it as a mandatory period of self improvement) and then when the time comes, trust me, you'll do so much better than a long distance tranny you find on a YouTube comment section that you had to grovel for and beg just to get together, or some furry on VRchat

Not saying that's not an option, it's an option. All the things you listed here are options. But nothing will compare to being hot and trying dating apps

>>34906298
Guy that flew got dumped. Woman found another online relationship, it flopped. She contacted the first guy again realizing they made a mistake and telling him she was suicidal. he'd already moved on and had a steady relationship.
Og woman was unwilling to fly to another country to meet someone.
The person willing to put in the effort got what they put into the situation while the low effort fag burned out bad because they just kept thinking, what can I get better? Its much easier to be a terminal asshole online and play these games of ghosting and running side hustles. With online you often get people that will trap you in text cause they really dont want to meet irl. You'll donate 500 calories a day while theyd rather limit you to 1. These people arent looking for a relationship but a toy to play with. Its your responsibility to run for the hills when you meet someone like this. Youre not going to instill the courage in them to fix themselves on a dime.
I forgot to mention if I did it again id probably buck up my hate for zuckerborg and use Facebook dating. That'd rank next to tinder (because tinder has most users). Id also use penpal sites if i wanted to meet people beyond face judge. But like I said with omegle its because ive had penpals in the past. I enjoyed having penpals instead of deliberately using it for sekkso. If I was hoping to get a relationship out of it id be expecting to use a lot more time to find someone from it. If someone came across as using the site exclusively for a relationship instead of a penpal itd come across strange to me and make future convo awkward unless we knew each other well (months to years). Same with omegle or discord.
When you use a dating app or just talk to someone you can fish out in a single sitting if someone is looking and willing to put the effort in for a relationship. Its a huge difference on time. With online you could be dealing with a paraplegic fatty from Nigeria masking with ai

They dont just suck. They're engineered to fuck up your mind and demoralize you.
I bombed on every app for months and totally lost any semblance of self-worth and confidence I've ever had.
The only reason I was on the apps is because my job is too demanding (70hrs a week) and a complete sausage fest. For months I felt like a 2/10 kill-on-sight ghoul before meeting my current gf. Literally got catcalled by her(22f 8/10) in my work parking lot. Meanwhile on the apps I was getting blown off by 5/10 slags.
Those apps exist explicitly to torment you and make you hate the opposite sex.

I met a girl online once. She tried raping me.

>>34907774
It probably means you have shitty pictures u retard

Well you probably don't want to keep it online for long. So either asap or never

>>34906164
You'r e making it MUCH harder for yourself by looking online.
All dating apps are designed to waste your time and money by stringing you along, not actually get your dates.
Even on other sites, no matter where you are online the gender ratio is completely fucked, as it is mostly guys competing for a small handful of girls. On top, you are engaging with the bottom 10% - women don't have thehurdle of approaching, so think about what has to be wrong with a woman so she can't sit in a bar for two hours and see who comes knocking. Mental illness abounds, and theres plenty of women who abrely get attention IRL but have absurdly bloated egoes due to thousands of guys flooding their inbox nonstop. Lastly, even if you have success the women will be a good league below what you could score IRL due to the aforementioned factors.

Just go to abar, hobbies, chat up chicks in a park, whatever you do its likely to do more for you than fagging about online. Its a trap. Most guys like you just end up on here a year later and cry about no woman wanting them.

>>34908812
Most guys from here who try irl come back here after a year with nothing happening for them. With dating apps a success means an actual date, or touch
IRL you're not going to get any of that just pain

For both, you have to work out and look good, but dating apps will get you to what you actually want faster. And give you way more insight than living with your fear irl

lol

Lucky you

What does it mean when a girl "tries" to rape you?

>>34912861
She was having sex with me while I was asleep and unconscious. I woke up and she was penetrating herself on me. I say tried because I was into it and reciprocated when I realized what was going on. I never expressly gave her permission or consented before she started.

Was she planning or intending for me to wake up or how long would she have continued if i didn't wake up, is what I tend to ask myself.

That is kinda fucked up if it was unprotected

But otherwise...

>>34912904
It was unprotected. She was also black, so I guess it makes sense.
