So my wife and I have never been on dating apps ever, but we both have tonnes of friends on them and out of curiosity on Saturday we tried a few.

I have never realized how difficult these apps are for men.

I'm a fairly good-looking guy, since Saturday between 3 apps, I got about 20-30 matches, almost all ghosted except for 9 of them, 3 wanted to arrange dates. All 3 were not that attractive.

All in all, not bad, but definitely not great.

My wife, on the other hand, I kid you not, has gotten over 10,000 likes since Saturday.

It is fucking ridiculous what's going on out there with the dating market.

It's unfeasible for both genders and leads to a way more extreme 80:20 rule.

Forgive my out of 10 rating system, just helps express my point.

Any women above a 7 will have her pick of men, however, most really good-looking men will probably ignore them and seek out only the 9s.

Men who are 7s and 8s like myself, will end up with the women who are 6s or less. Of those 20 something matches I got, arguably only 4 were decently attractive and one of them responded to me.

Honestly, I don't really have a solution, it's the dating dynamic, but it truly must suck for 90% of men out there.

UPDATE:

My wife's likes are slowing down slightly, she got between 300-500 on each app.

My matches have oddly have gone up today, got about 7 on bumble and 12 on tinder today alone. So now about 40 since Saturday.

Still that fucking ratio of 10k to 40 lolz
