By meeting more and more people from them until you get desensitized to it. Try to go on as many first dates as you can per week.

I meet a decent amount of people but I never get desensitized ig

Try not to hookup with them until the 3rd or 4th date, that way you’re only left with the people that are genuine

A lot of guys feel that if they don’t get a kiss or something on the first date they’re never gonna.
[–]Impressive-Medium-13 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link
I’m perfectly fine with kissing on the first date tbh, and I do most the time of the situation allows it

What do you mean “see each other again”? Do you mean after a date or after hooking up? If it’s after a date he felt you weren’t interested. If it’s after hooking up, he got what he wanted and moved on. If you want a guy that is more interested in a long term relationship, pick someone less attractive. More attractive guys have more options on dating apps so they’re less likely to want to be monogamous.
Also try to appreciate how nice it is you can get matched at all, it’s very easy for women, most guys (myself included) get zero matches. Your problem really isn’t that bad of a problem to have. You likely have hundreds of matches to pick through, the world is yours on a platter

After a date, a very specific situation I’m thinking of is that we went on a “date” (I more often than not call them hangouts cause I don’t like the idea of a formal date) and we spent hella time together and we both said we wanted to see eachother again and we both mutually agreed we liked spending time with eachother. Now today he is defo more spotty than usual with responses and when he doesn’t respond it’s usually only a couple words so it really doesn’t seem like he’s that interested anymore even tho last night he seemed super excited and was the one who brought up hanging out again and I ecstatically agreed. I’m sorry you don’t get many matches and just because I have people to choose from Doesnt mean my problem isn’t valid

Ok so I’m thinking this post is just about one guy in particular? I wouldn’t generalize an experience with one guy.
last night he was super excited
I mean I’m guessing he was trying to get laid last night. If he doesn’t wanna hang out in other circumstances, he probably just wants you for sex. If you don’t want that kind of relationship, find another guy. You literally have hundreds of matches to choose from
just because I have people to choose from doesn’t mean my problem isn’t valid
Uh yes it does. Go on a date with one of the other matches. Fixating on one person in particular is not a good idea. Dating is a numbers game. You have the advantage of being a young woman on a dating app. You literally have hundreds of options, just pick another guy.
I also don’t want a serious relationship, just more fwb type vibes
Ok then text him right now and say hey do you wanna have sex. Like just be up front if you want a fwb relationship, 90% of guys would jump on that shit.
If he’s one of the 10% that doesn’t, just message one of your other tinder matches. The vast majority of guys on there would love a FWB situation

Just read through this forum a bit..
And no hookups.
You can do better than that. Vet them untill you know they're serious and won't hurt you.
Yeah 😅 I definitely think I’m coming to the conclusion that hookups arnt good for me. I still done want a serious relationship tho so it’s hard to navigate
[–]boxinsideme 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
People don't know what the fuck they're doing anymore. First of all, both yourself and these gentlemen you are meeting shouldn't be giving it up so easily. Both parties need to be playing hard to get a bit more.
When you have sex after the first meet up, that's it. You've both fully exposed yourselves to each other before you even really got to know them as a person.
Man... if I really liked you a lot I would be playing my cards a little smarter. I'm gonna dangle that carrot in front of you for a while. I wanna show you a fun time on the first date and leave you wanting more. Leave you thinking about what a fun time you had with me. Second date, even better. End the night with a passionate kiss. Build that tension up more. Give you a reason to text me the next day. Give you a reason to want to see me again.
You would be so mad with lust and desire from the anticipation, that you would be throwing yourself at me. Then... Finally it happens. And it is FIREWORKS BABY!
Ig you are right, it’s hard to find guys like this tho that genuinely want to get to know someone
[–]TheTruth221 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
find another one like dj kelly said

Get off dating apps if you’re looking for real connection and intimacy tbh, you’re going to find superficial horny dudes on it primarily .
[–]ilovefootball49 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Majority of men on dating apps are superficial. They want hot girls and they want to hook up, especially at that age. If you don't like it try other apps like match.com or eharmony that are geared towards dating, or just delete them altogether.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
There may be a lot of reasons why they break the contact with you after meeting in real life. You don't expect to just get with anyone, do you? Most people are so invested with this "cultural schemes" that you can't be sure at all about their words and you need to trust emotions and intuition more. If you feel you created some genuine connection and there are big hopes for the future, you may engage yourself little more. Otherwise, if nothing "memmorable" happened on a date, it is very much probable that it will end there.

well, this happens to me with girls that are highly attractive. if you’re going for guys that are “a catch” or “really hot” this will keep happening , until you eventually get lucky. if you want a hot guy then put up with it until you land it. otherwise as you bring your standards down the flaking will come down as well. It’s kind of a risk reward thing , if you want the reward of a super attractive/tall/successful guy you’ll have to have to take the risk of them not liking you or leading you on.
Agree with this, as a man.
Problems are self created. All that exists is experience. Everything else is made up by you. This is only a problem because you're making it one. Understand that everything is impermanent. All relationships end. Some after 1 night, others after 1000 nights. You likely have something from your past triggering these feelings. Maybe your Dad left at a young age? Or you're new to dating (being 18) and over time you'll feel less.
