I couldn't either back in the day. So there is nothing wrong with you, it's just not your cup of tea. You'll meet someone, if that's what you really want for yourself.

It works for some people for varying reasons.
For example, if one feels more comfortable behind a screen than in person at first.
Or if it happens unintentionally. Sometimes you meet people you wouldn't normally have online.
I know some people that discredit it because it isn't "irl" or "Face to face" or whatever. But it's still two people on the ends of those messages and in those video calls. There's still a connection made and eventually? There's still two people meeting face to face.
It's a little riskier, because of catfishing and people lying about who they are.. But people can lie about who they are, their ages and everything in person too.
It all depends on what you're comfortable with and there isn't a "right" or "wrong" way.
If it doesn't work for you and you have better luck in person, that's perfectly fine.
Or if you prefer to be alone. That can be less of a headache too lol.

@MemoirsOfTheDamned I just don't like how evolooks the same. There's nothing unique or individual. It's boring.
@MarbleMarvel And that's okay to feel that way. What works for some doesn't work for others and not everyone is gonna feel the same way. As long as you find what works for you, because you deserve to be happy 🩵 :3

Oh my that didn’t take long. Honestly I had success with online dating but I’m old and wanted to date women in my matching age group. That narrowed things down and left me with better choices but I still had to be very selective and cautious. It’s hard for me to imagine the broader more general dating sites being very useful.
@TheShanachie I think I will have better luck when I'm out of this area.
I never last long because there's nothing original to find. I need something different and here people value conformity.

@chasingThursday Is that better or worse than your success rate with offline dating?
chasingThursday · 41-45, M
@ninalanyon slightly better, I actually get dates with online dating but they tend to go nowhere. I have negative success in person lol
@chasingThursday I'll date you.
But yeah this is just depressing. I'm sure if I was a normie it'd be fine.

@Prettybratbi1tch have you seen me?? 😂
I'll blame it on where I live. They're like carbon copies of white bros. I can't 😂

@BobbyMoeven I'm trying bumble but I think it's where I live. There's no originality and no desire for it.

I get it . But tbh . It's really tough to gauge anyone until you end up getting a bit more deets than an online profile can offer ..
Striking up , even a text conversation , usually reveals a lot in a short span of time .
I am just saying , don't be so quick to throw in the towel . It took over a year for a friend of mine to finally hit their .mark .
Best of luck ..Happy human hunting .

@MarbleMarvel Had any funny new interactions you wanna share with the class?
@MartinTheFirst tbh they're so boring. One guy said I wasn't real... Which is amusing because if I wanted to catfish surely I'd use more attractive photos
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@MarbleMarvel Actually unattractive catfish is a big brain move, but yeah if they say you're fake then it probably means you're very attractive. Take it as a weird compliment!
