I find it impossible. I am an above average looking guy with good pics and a good profile, and good opening lines, and good at carrying a convo. But no matter what, out of the blue, girls just unmatch, or they stop replying. Several times girls went "OMG LOL" at my opening line, then we exchanged another 2-3 messages then they unmatch out of the blue. Once I even had a girl say "omg your so funny I wanna date you now" and then next message BOOM she unmatched me. Fucking weirdos. Only 1 girl out of the 50+ that I talked to went on a date (then she ghosted after the 2nd date for no reason). I feel like it is not me, I get the feeling that over 98% of the girls on there are not actually looking for anything, they just want to get attention, and if a super godly hunk messages them, only then do they actually meet up. Think about it, any decent looking girl will have dozens of guys to choose from in real life, they just go on tinder for boredom to make guys act like their personal clowns to entertain them, then unmatch them whenever they want to get a sense of power to make up for their insecurity. Other dating sites seem to work the exact same way. Don't waste time on these garbage apps.

I never used backpage to actually get an escort, but I browsed it a couple of times, and I spent like an hour just browsing and always looking for "the" best looking escort. Watching porn is the same: you watch video after video, wanting to find the "perfect" one, until you get tired and just fap. I feel like girls are the same on online dating. There is just so much choice for them that it is impossible for them to choose, so they all hold out for "the" best chad. But obviously there is a huge difference between porn/escort (just for sex) vs how you choose your relationship partner, and so that shows how stupid and shallow women are compared to men.
