Hi new to Reddit so idk how it works inside out and this is my first post.

I've managed to get tonnes of girls on Instagram in London like 1600 of them and have a good follower to following ratio like 2100 to 1500 and have cool posts at fancy places and good pictures with like 33 posts so it's all pretty optimised. I wanna be able to dm random girls who follow me back for first dates and have been looking at everything in order to do this effectively. I've been experimenting loads with different messages to try and get dates but most girls just ignore the message and the odds of success are like 2 in 100 lol although the 2 in 100 can be of quite pretty. I've also tried replying to stories but even that doesn't seem to work much. Any tips or experiences for increasing success?

Also in this case do you guys suggest direct game or indirect game and am I just wasting my time and money making my Instagram really cool? To make my insta cool I often go out to very fancy places and post lots of stories which can cost around £20 - £100 per place like twice or thrice a week, a lot of times I just go to these places to boost my Instagram and to build a perception and a lifestyle. I can afford it but i'd rather not spend on this stuff just to save and invest more, any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated!
