Online Dating Depresses Me

Online is volume, volume, volume with less effort than going out. It isn't as good as going out but makes a nice backup. The main things that have an impact IRL like body language, real confidence, and social skills don't really come into play much at all online so you have much less leverage. A nice extra but nothing more.

I just had pretty much the same issue and just gave up. Mainly because I don't feel like writing a bunch of information about myself all at once. I'd much rather have a conversation with someone and learn about each other that way. But I feel like you have to put something and something catch people's attention. Try broadening your "type" maybe?

I got absolutely sick and tired of matching with girls on okcupid quickmatch and matching on Tinder and then messaging them and never hearing a response back or the conversation suddenly dissipating after like three or four exchanges. Then only getting a date like 1 in every 1000 messages I send out. Actually convincing a woman that you're safe enough and worthwhile enough to go on even a single date is borderline impossible online. Basically the girl has to be sooooo physically attracted to you and impressed with you that she has already made the decision she is going to have sex with you or make you her boyfriend before she even meets up with you. That's my experience.

Everyone is a social advocate/philanthropist/nerd/world traveler on paper. We'll see how well that translates to real life

You forgot that every girl is bisexual on okcupid. It's pretty ridiculous how every girl writes the same, but I can tell you, they are simply doing marketing, so you can subtract about 90% of all the bull crap they write on their profile, or just don't read it and simply start talking to them.

Though it's still pretty tedious and I have never noticed a greater density of low value girls in general as in online dating. It's almost like looking for a unicorn to find a girl that's not either crazy, depressive, only looking for validation or simply stupid like a bunch of sheep.

I hate online dating. Just doesn't work for me. I've used it for a few months and gotten one meetup. Also because I'm an average looking Asian, probably plays against me.
