While yes, that is the case, I cannot help but feel it's not the app's fault this time
UnderpantsWeevil 25 points 7 months ago
The Algorithm used to match people isn't designed to encourage healthy and normal conversations. It's designed to encourage people to spend more time on the apps (and, eventually, more money).

peopleproblems 18 points 7 months ago
I used to think this. Then I went on some dates, I made connections, etc.
But only once I started paying. The apps are built to maximize profit.
Hinge > Boo > Tinder > Bumble.
Instigate 12 points 7 months ago
This is exactly how it works - I became single after 13 years and so had no previous experience with dating apps, so I decided to go all in and get one month’s subscription to Hinge, Bumble and Grindr. Before the end of the month I was concurrently dating five people (four women and one man) as a bi man in his thirties. Shit was pretty cash.
A lot of people asked me why I was so successful and I told them it’s because I paid for the subscriptions. For what ended up amounting to around $100AUD I got to date a bunch of people, had some great dates and great sex, and one of those five people is now my long term partner with whom I’m living. She was one of the ‘top recommended’ people on Hinge and the algorithm really got it right!
YMMV but paying for the apps actually provides quite a good service.
echodot 11 points 7 months ago
I think people's biggest fear with paying for the apps is that they'll end up in a situation where they are just throwing good money after bad and not getting anything for it. Then you get into the sunk cost fallacy and it's really difficult to get yourself out of that headspace.
The problem is the apps say that they have recommendations that you only have to pay to unlock but I don't believe them.
peopleproblems 5 points 7 months ago
Ok well, I haven't had that kind of success. But success none the less.
echodot 6 points 7 months ago
Yeah and they all suck as a result.
I keep meaning to have a proper look into it and see if there are any actual dating site / apps that are independent. It's a massive pain because usually you can't really tell if an app is going to be any good or if it's just another clone until after you've already signed up. It's quite the time investment.
Electricd 1 point 7 months ago
Yea most of them suck
I tried Lovetastic and liked the fact that they don’t use pictures and it’s mostly based on text
They don’t seem to have advanced algorithms that are here to fuck you
But hey, I met my SO on a relatively niche but non ethical dating app. It was filed with ads and badly optimized but I figured out the algorithm wouldn’t be all ELO type of shit, and it worked after some time

This is the bumble experience lol. The man still has to do the real first message because the woman's first message is going to be "hey" 99% of the time.
ptu 5 points 7 months ago
As a man I also sent just hi to everyone. Reasoning behind that was that if there is any interest, they would reply with something. Like a ping. When we’d get to know better I could be more personal. Found a great partner this way, we’ve been together for 5 years now.
SoleInvictus 7 points 7 months ago
I had a formula: "Hi!", my real first name, a brief mention and open-ended question about something I found interesting on their profile,, then closing with something like "Online dating can be a lot. I'd love to hear from you, but only when you're ready. No pressure. I hope you have a great day."
So about four sentences. It took me like two minutes. I got about 1 response in 10 instead of over 1:30 that way, at least from women. Success!
I then proceeded to have all of the worst dates I've ever been on. One person showed up on shrooms, a woman interrogated me about marriage and children within ten minutes of meeting, another seemed to be fabricating their entire life story on the spot... and more! There were good dates too, but soooo much bad.

Hey Grok, this person on the dating website said Hii \n Cool hair what should I send back? I want to sound slightly interested, but almost dismissive, like they need to prove that I'm worth their time, but so far I just said Hey
Grok: have you considered saying thank you?
eww, whole words? I'm not a geriatric
Grok: perhaps you could say ty
god, you're not help, i already thought if that but i'm afraid it makes me sound too disinterested

The issue isn't talking to women. The issue is talking to people you are attracted to.
I'm bi but I'm not attracted everyone. And I can tell you it takes a lot more from me to talk to someone I'm attracted to and I don't think I could easily just be normal friends with someone I badly want to fuck and just have normal conversations with them.

They’re really not. Every person is different from every other person, but a woman is still just a person. And most people aren’t comfortable being treated like they’re different.
Be friendly and most people will also be friendly.
Mog_fanatic 1 point 7 months ago
I mean on a base level of course you are right. But seriously? Men and women are very different when it comes to a crap ton of things.
TheRealKuni 10 points 7 months ago
I have many friends who are women, and a wife who is a woman, and none of them are significantly different for me to talk to than men. I don’t know what to tell you.
Sure there are cultural differences. Men are more likely to discuss some topics than women are, and vice versa. And there are stereotypical differences like women being more open with their feelings (though I’ve always been pretty open about my own as a man). We assign plenty of interests to specific genders, but there are always those who cross those lines.
I’ve always found that treating women essentially the same way I treat men has worked just fine.

It's sad things like this that make me think, it's too bad church is all fucked up with religion. Because "Entire families, plus any single individuals, get washed and dressed up, then join under the stained-glass windows to sit and stand and sing and go through the motions, while all the eligible sweeties pretend they're not checking out all the other eligible sweeties, and have a whole hour to think of something to say to them over the coffee and cookies afterwards. Repeat weekly" is pretty much how a lot of people found partners for generations. Especially those whose families couldn't afford ballrooms and country clubs.

In my experience with three different UU congregations, they can be pretty varied.
My former city had one that was Protestant-lite, one that was nearly neopagan, and one that was so insular that I felt unwelcome as a visitor.
nonfuinoncuro 1 point 7 months ago
i just don't like how it keeps so many trappings of traditional protestant church services, i mean i know why to attract more people since that is the dominant cultural force but just doesn't sit right with me to ruminate over the bible and pretend it is some enlightened tome of truth in a supposedly secular context
EndlessNightmare 1 point 7 months ago
No. College is: expensive, heavily skews young, has a lot of homework, has tests, and generally represents a significant time commitment.
Realistically, I should probably put more effort into finding a suitable recurring volunteer opportunity. Something that is based on personal values would presumably help with finding like-minded people while also engaging in an activity that is inherently meaningful to me.
gandalf_der_12te 0 points 7 months ago
i'd like to keep in mind that flirting with women in a work (or education) related environment is considered sexual harassment, which is not so the case outside (like 3rd spaces).

IME community centers are more like gyms and activity centers. But I suppose they could vary by region and by individual community center.
JackbyDev 2 points 7 months ago
I'm probably being too generous with what I'm calling community center, I should edit it. As an example, in my head I was picturing a local park which my city has folks come and perform at and such. It's just a stage in a park but there are events there.

UnderpantsWeevil 32 points 7 months ago
Had a couple of lady friends who went on vacation to Europe - Spain and France, specifically - and had totally different experiences on the dating apps. Men were open and friendly, knew how to hold up a conversation (in non-native languages!), showed politeness, responded quickly, made first contact easy and low-anxiety, looked good, smelled nice, knew how to dance, charmed the panties right off them both, and then kept in contact afterwards. Like, even after they flew back home, these guys were still saying "Hey, what's up, here's something cool happening in my neighborhood can't wait to see you again".
Just a radically different experience than the American dating scene. One friend straight up swore off American men entirely. She's booking a flight back to France for a three month go - working remote, learning the language, the whole thing - because of how blown away by the healthier and happier social conditions over there.

It's a two way street. Some people need to go to some completely different place to relax enough, and some other people bet on tourists being relaxed enough.
I even remember that kind of effect from school, during school time I would always get into fights with kids that I was happily hanging around with in the holidays.
AnUnusualRelic 2 points 7 months ago
Tourist hunters are different. They know France is, for some reason, the first worldwide destination and flock here to steal your wallets. They'll be on the steps to the Sacré Cœur to tie a bit of string around your wrist while a comparse grabs your wallet, your keys, your underwear and your toupee.

It's exactly as you say, people in France and some other places in southern Europe like italy and spain actually know how to treat women properly. and they don't even have "feminism" (i.e. forced smiles and if you don't behave you go to jail) there. What they have is common sense and centuries of experience with how to actually treat women well.
UnderpantsWeevil 2 points 7 months ago
they don’t even have “feminism”
I mean, they do have feminism. The trick to understanding feminism is to recognize how it benefits both genders when the walls of segregation and elitism come down.
Once you're able to treat each other as peers, rather than income streams or commodities, you develop the kind of common sense they enjoy.

Siethron 24 points 7 months ago
As a cishet man who isn't passionate about hyping himself up and gets burnt out socially easily...
No one on dating apps is worth the effort required to overcome the illusion of comparison. We don't know you and we're not going become infatuated over what you can put in a profile. At most our interest will be piqued, but we know we have to compete with HUNDREDS of other dudes and ...ehhhhh.
To put it another way if I was at a party and there was a beautiful girl surrounded by 10 to 20 dudes I wouldn't even bother and instead try to have fun and talk to people I found interesting. But with dating apps pretty much every girl is always surrounded by guys like that trying too hard and the same guys are surrounding as many girls as possible since online they are not limited by the physics of space online.
Kolanaki 22 points 7 months ago

I have actually been catcalled before, but it was in somewhat close proximity. It was in Vegas and it was a group of girls who were walking toward me and one yelled, "Hey! She likes your hair!" (I have anime-esque hair)
I was more confused than anything, then embarrassed, then amused. Us guys get so little attention that I've been going out of my way to compliment other guys in a non-flurting way.

boonhet 13 points 7 months ago
Talking to women and talking to women you want to date are slightly different things tbh. The latter doesn't necessarily come naturally for all.
And online, it gets even harder oftentimes. Creating a captivating conversation out of an empty bio, two generic photos and a name? That's still damn difficult for me and I've been on tinder for like 4 years out of the last 8. Obviously it's easier if the conversational partner throws you a bone. OOP didn't exactly have a great opener to begin with and then was given a "tyyy". Try riffing on that. Good luck. I can see why OOP gave up on the conversation.
Online "dating" sucks. I'm sure women have their own reasons why it sucks (safety in particular), but for men it sucks because generally speaking, you're expected to prove yourself as an interesting conversational partner within 2-3 messages. Even on Bumble it's the same, as seen in the screenshot. Women have to write first there, but usually it's just "hi" or an emoji.
So I also don't know how to talk to women. I have female friends. I'm not an incel, I've had a couple of long-term relationships and some, eh, situationships I guess? Even some with people I met on dating apps. Meet me in person? We're staying awake talking until 5 AM. Actually give me something to riff about in your bio or at least reply to me with more than one word? We're at the very least going to have a fun conversation, maybe meet in real life. But give me an empty bio and one word replies? I'm sorry, but I just don't know how to talk to you.
boonhet 2 points 7 months ago
That's half the girls on Tinder sadly. I tend to swipe most of the empty bios left and lately just abandon the conversation if the other half doesn't seem interested or interesting enough to at least reply with something creative too.
But that's just the reality of online "dating". It's a numbers game and heavily in favour of women. As someone once said, men are looking for drinking water in the desert, while women are looking for it in the ocean. Sucks for everyone, just in different ways.

FatVegan 3 points 7 months ago
The funny thing is that it wasn't always this bad. When i used tinder the first time, i installed it, got like 20 matches, talked to some people and met up with one or two. It was free and unlimited, except to see who matched you and super likes and all that shit.
It just got periodically worse and worse. The last time i used tinder was this summer and it's disgusting. The app is designed to prevent you from getting matches, the only ones who swiped on me live in china, kenya or Thailand. Expectations have gone through the roof.
With all that said, i actually met someone that i really love and we both are kind of in the same boat. Neither me or her have ever met someone that they liked as much, and i would've never met her without these shitty ass apps.

Improv doesn't have to be on a stage.
To practice improv is just to practice social skills. And, I don't know how else to say this, a lack of social skill is the fundamental root problem here. Anyone who lacks confidence in this way is going to have to learn them one way or another.
A real first step might be learning to be brave and charging through one's anxiety to get to the improv center, but they have to go. Whether it's improv or something else, they have to go.

An unsolicited photo of something random might not be something everyone responds to. I wouldn't necessarily send a response.
So if she doesn't respond, it doesn't definitively mean she doesn't want to talk to you. Maybe try again with something that actually indicates that you're looking for a response. Like ... ask a question about something you know you have in common.
Did you finish the reading for class? I think the part about ABC could be interpreted to apply to XYZ. What do you think?

Nah, you will have a bunch of those sad lonely assholes that want to be like tate. And you will have normal people with empathy that get most of the girls.
The manospehere is self-defeating. They can only get additional members by preying on sad loners with no experience in women. Once they do get experience (if ever), they quickly realize how much they got lied to, or they will lose the women that got them their experience in the first place.
realitaetsverlust 3 points 7 months ago
And you will have normal people with empathy that get most of the girls.
I think that isn't entirely true. Because there isn't just a manosphere, there is also a "womanosphere" who seems to be hell-bent on exploiting men. Like, there's a huge amount of clips of woman saying that men that don't earn enough/are not tall enough/don't pay everything/etc are useless. This entire situation isn't only the fault of andrew tate and other wannabe-"alphas" - barely any situation ever is the fault of a single party - but it's basically "teamwork" between those two really toxic bubbles and all the normal people are basically caught in the crossfire.
