An average ratio of women to men on OLD is 30% women 70% men. A bunch of those women will have been given incentives to be there, are fake profiles, are there to promote their instagram, .... On top of that, OLD's straight up lie about this because if they admit to how few women there are, the paying customers leave.

So my guesstimation is that there are 4 men for every 1 serious looking to date woman on OLD. Let's be honest here... probably worse then that.

(The following example's are extremely simplified)

Let's say you have a guy named Chad. Chad is very successfull with women. He can get 50% of the women he chats up to hook-up with him.

Chad goes on OLD. Chad maintains his 50% luck on OLD...but there's also James (Chad2), Timmy (Chad3) and Robert (Chad4) and only 1 Lizza.

These are the most attractive, most successful men in dating and 3 will strike out with Lizza because there aren't enough women. Even if Lizza fucks multiple men, 3 will still strike out with Lizza, because Lizza will match up with 4 new Chad's when she wants a 2nd guy.

Chad can talk to a 100 women IRL and have 50 dates, but while he was the only Chad chatting up those 50 IRL, he's sharing those 50 with 3 other Chad's on OLD. Assuming that the women match up 1-on-1 (yeah yeah, I know what you are going to say), Chad will only walk away with 12/13 women instead of the usual 50.

If Chad wants to have his usual 50 dates/month, then Chad is going to need to hit up 400 women instead of a 100 on OLD.

So even bloody Chad is struggling on OLD. He's not struggling like most of you, because he comes from a really high success rate, but he's struggling in his own way.

And even if you find a way to enforce that women can only looksmatch on OLD and that women can't fuck around with more then 1 guy, even then you still have 3 men without dates.

The only way to fix OLD is to enforce a 50/50 ratio, which won't happen because these are companies and they want their money.

You never had a honest chance to begin with, it's not designed for you to have a honest chance.

So either stay off OLD, you have better odds IRL, or realise that your inability to match on OLD doesn't represent your attraction level and in response you don't take it personal and play the numbers game (1% out of 100 = 1 date. 1% out of a 1000 = 10 dates).
