Which is worse, online dating, or having to approach IRL?
>>84915221Both are worse than the other.
>>84915221I am too shy and afraid to do cold approach. Maybe if the conversation started naturally i would continue it. No matter I found a hot young filipina on okcupid and already moved there so I am good.
>>84915221Online. It leaves too many unknowns on the table and lets the mind wonder to fill the in the gaps with bad things.
>>84915221Online is objectively worse. It's not natural at all. Cold approaching also sucks. The best way to find a partner is to befriend the opposite sex and spend time with them outside of a romantic context first.
>>84915221>approaching irlThis nigga is just asking to get arrested by the foidstapo for the crime of interacting with a woman as a sub8 ickoid
>>84915327>foidstapoKek I'm stealing this one
yeah you don't approach womenchad doesn't have to try and women create opportunities for them
>>84915305I get friendzoned any time I've tried this, foids seem to need you to make advances on them immediately, or you get put in the "nervous/shy unfuckable bitch baby" category.
>>84915305> befriend the opposite sex and spend time with them outside of a romantic context first.This is absolutely the worst advice you could possibly give, and trust me I know from firsthand experience. If you spend too much time with a girl without expressing a romantic interest she inevitably friendzones you. And let's face it, being friends with a woman is the lowest layer of hell. You end up used as a chauffeur, bodyguard, and emotional tampon that gets dragged along on sexless dates where you're expected to sit and listen to her bitch about whatever guy she's currently fucking. I learned a long time ago that it's better to take your shot and if it's a miss, oh well. At least that saves you from being a "friend" to some stupid bitch who thinks she's too good for you.
>>84915409When and where have you tried it? There's studies on this, and it is the natural way to do it. Ups your odds significantly. Approaching barely works and it's mostly for sex, not dating.
>>84915441Worked for me, not sure what to tell you, but if that's what you're getting from it, maybe you're just doing it wrong.
>>84915305Nah, fuck as soon as poss.
Does it even matter? It seems like no matter how you do it 99% of interactions with women whether IRL or on app basically result in ghosting>go to a dance hall>get 4 numbers in one night from cold approaches where I ask them to dance then ask for number after>literally all don't reply the next day>go on hinge>get over a dozen matches>when I ask if they want to meet up for a drink, they ghostIf you're not gigachad then seems like you're relegated to being a fly / insect that barely even registers on the mind of women and you are instantly replaceable and you can flip a coin on if they basically forget you even exist
>>84915457>Worked for meI doubt that
>>84915221If you are able to get matches on a dating app, then it is the most viable and best way to meet girls. Now IRL through cold approaches ? Shit like that is going to involve you having to be creative on your pick ups/being real fucking funny unless you're good looking and you're already viewed as attractive. I'm 5'6 and I had a good time on Hinge because well im attractive for a short guy. My cold approaches though? now that's where it becomes shit because even though I got rizz, most women in general don't fit me attractive. Hinge kind of helped out filter out the ones who didn't take my height up the ass automatically. Besides anything online most of my relationships came from girls I'm friends with getting me with their friends. I think by far social networking is the best play if you want a good social life, ignoring the friendzoning and take advantage of it. >>84915305>>84915441LOL . Bro that's just how being friends with them are. I can get it from your POV that there's bitches who will friendzone you and leave you in the dust in the future (i dealt with those bitches before fuck them) , but the girls who do friendzone you and want to genuinely be friends ? Now those are the real ones you can be friends with. I'm still good friends with girls who I liked and friendzoned me. Some girls will 100% will be down to getting you with their friends if you're doing good for yourself. When you get friendzone you shouldn't worry about being in the friendzone. You need to worry about that you have a female friend and what can you do regarding to expanding your social circle. Best advice I've gotten growing up and my dating life for a manlet hasn't been that shit.
>>84915221Cold approaching is way worse. Public rejection is a painful feeling and it will tear away at you. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a malicious piece of shit setting you up for failure
>>84915441The shittiest part is when you go through a self improvement journey and she still looks at you as the same loser she was never going to fuck
>>84915221Online doesn't work unless you're giga Chad AND you'll be getting mentally ill sluts AND that might not even work.
>>84916112But you should have found a ltr through warm approaching in your early years anyways.Irregardless it's over.
>>84916056Where and how did you make friends with these girls, I dont have a social life rn and im trying to start getting to know people.
>>84916112Cold approaching doesnt work unless youre really good looking, and even then, people hate being put on the spot and will probably just say no out of instinct Also, you have to play the guessing game>Is She Single?The only place I ever bother with it is Vegas, but I doubt many robots are taking regular trips there
>>84916134I was talking about warm approaching.I.e through an already established social circle irl.
>>84916203Most of us have already tried those options>All of my coworkers are married with children, they dont know anyone and dont go out anymore>Sister and female cousins hate me>went to a house party at my best friends house in ATL>Only 2 single girls there who werent fat>One immediately said no cuz I was smoking weed in the backyard>Other told me she only dates black dudesIts a solo journey for me, bro.
>>84915221online dating is great since its leisurely and I don't need to deal with rejection face to face.I actually love it when girls ghost it lets me look for more bitches. When you get a nice convo going, VCing etc you can transition smoothly to irls. I don't use dating apps though you have to be more creative with online dating or you'll end up a tinder cuck
>>84916312Are you on Christian Mingle or Black People Meet?
>>84916325No, those are dating apps they suck ass too.If you're white and you're on here go use /soc/, reddit or tumblr and figure out a method to get the girls pm.My method? im gatekeeping you guys have it easier than me anyway so figure it out kek
>>84916234Ideally it should be done as young as possible. The older you get the harder it is and the more socially maladjusted you appear due to isolation.I'm probably gonna be alone all my life too anon it is what it is. That's a lot of men these days. If I'm not mistaken it's the majority.
>>84916369I was fat, broke, bald, and had yellow teeth when I was younger. I didnt want to date anyone in my 20s cuz I figured nobody would stay with meI fixed all the stuff I didnt like about myself. My bald spot filled in, my teeth are perfect, and now I weigh 145 pounds, but it didnt help at all. My sister and female cousins dont think Ive changed at all and probably still talk mad shit about me behind my back. I know Im gonna die alone, but Im still bitter this is how it turned out for me
