Hinge Takeover >>> Tinder, Bumble Pof

[Canadian Destroyer]

I've been off dating sites since dec. of last year so all of 2017 and it was def on the decline at that time
I see what some of y'all are saying that online is dead now. Can't imagine it being as lit as it was 2-3 years ago.

Also wtf is coffee meets bagels?

 

[calye2da]

Went against my better judgement & got back on these dating apps a few weeks ago. Already deleted my Tinder & Soul Swipe. Tinder just isn't for me. I'll never make another account again. Just a complete waste of time in my area. I'd give Soul Swipe a chance again if they ever updated the app but I don't see that happening. I swear all da girls on there are inactive & haven't been on their account in months. It sucks it doesn't tell you da last time a person was online.

I'm still using OkCupid though for now. NT could yall post some of yall closers when getting da number & setting up da date?

Do you have kids? Do they have kids (most do, multiple, hence it's hard to even set something up). Lunch date or right after work before I have to pick up the baby from day care has been my arrangement lately. If you both have kids, a play date meet up at the park is cool. Women love good daddies and it's free, just kind of sit around on the bench and talk while the kids run around on the playground.

Coffeemeetsbagel was actually on sharktank. I think somehow it matches you with people who are friends of you or your friends with similar intestersts based on your facebook

Dude, are you mad ? You're lining yourself up again with these online girls ?

Online Dating is purgatory...don't let it dull your view on life and the opposite sex

Its actually so wack. I gave some of these apps a try recently...wackest thing ever.


Spitting game to a female in person >>>>>

Got a mulatto whale that wants me so bad but everytime we get closer to hanging out, she flakes. I reprimanded her and let her have it. She said she has flaked several times because she got kicked out of her moms house and is now piecing her life together and looking for a place to stay. She's currently sleeping on her sisters couch. I felt so bad, i took my words back on what i said. I have no idea when we are going to hangout. She said she likes getting slapped, & spit on!

She said "As long as i'm alive at the end of intercourse, is all that matters." What kinda' crazy chicks are on POF?!

My girl needs to take Yoga and read some Tony Robbins

Her track record with dudes must be horrific if that's her norm.

Man I've been eating good on okc by simply asking chicks if they mess with black dudes. Went out with a German chick that told me she likes to eat butt, about some dude she deaded cause had ED and she was very fertile. Went out with an South African white chick not cute but the box was amazing. Trying to set something up with this other chick.

How quick do you ask for da number? 2nd or 3rd message?

 

[datznasty]

I closed my POF this weekend. Just too many loser women on there. I guess I could use the search filter and put in income or education requirements but still... tired of getting hit up by women in their 40s with no car/job or who still live with their parents and/or have strange, debilitating health conditions that disallow them from having normal lives. I didnt even know people living like that existed. Made a Blackpeoplemeet but never put my CC in, getting messages/flirts allegedly but gonna just hold off on the dating thing I think even though only $11 a month aint bad.

That's a tricky one. I don't try to get the number after certain number of messages. Some chicks will dead you if they feel it's too early. I normally exchange witty banter mention a few things about their profile. Tell them my name and ask for theirs. Then ask if they know what type of first date we will have low key or adventurous? They always pick adventurous! Then I ask if if this the time I give them my number and most of the time they just give me thiers cause they don't want to be the first to text. If I feel the dead me I'll send a follow up message saying I hope I didn't scare them. Sometimes that brings them back but statistically I don't have fun with them when we meet. One thing I do is let them send me the last message of the night that way I can hit with the "damn I fell asleep on you last night, I'm so sorry" normally the reply with no worries and I tell them I hope there morning was great. Dudes seem to rush the number I'm trying to get to the meet up. There are some chicks i never got number and all messages was through the app and we still met up.

POF is pure utter trash.

Thanks for da response. I see your format is similar to mines but these chicks go ghost on my conversation with them before I can even get their number smh. I know it's a numbers game out here though. If I keep shooting my shot I'm bound to hit something (I hope).

 

[be easy]

I had a solid run a few months ago after going through a rough breakup last fall. Was meeting/talking to new chicks every weekend though after awhile it got to be tiring. It was like rinse and repeat, from the messages I was sending on the apps to the dates themselves. Met like one or two decent chicks (before I met the one I'm with now) but the rest were just time fillers. The Tinder/Bumble game is all about numbers though. The key is just being yourself and not coming off as anything other than a regular chill dude. Making them laugh and not acting thirsty will land you dates, etc. Just have to be extremely patient and sort through tons of BS.

I remember the online dating game to be more fun a few years ago, idk.

Happy with the girl I'm with now, so I'll live vicariously through you guys.

I agree that online dating has gone downhill as of late but I still utilize it and take it with a grain of salt.

Does it take time & effort to put in work with these girls and actually see if there could be a connection or smash? Of course! and that could lead to lots of things wasted (time, money, effort, etc.)

One thing I appreciate about online dating, especially living in a big city like LA is that I come across and meet up with girls that I probably would never cross paths with in real life, that is a fact. So that is one aspect I appreciate because it does expand your horizon of girls that you come across but that could be a good and bad thing. As I said, take it with a grain of salt.

Its best to feel them out before you actually meet up i.e. briefly talk on the phone, text for a few days to gauge their mindset, etc.

This man knows...

Another benefit of meeting chicks online is that the are usually so far outside your circle that if it don't work out you don't have worry seeing them anymore.

 

[thenewjs23]

Lined up a date for today, Sunday and next Thursday. Today's is the one I really want. We've been texting since the weekend. White girl, a lil nerdy but got jokes. I was reading how she responded to the questions on okc and she may be a freak. Sundays date has the potential to get me in trouble. Black chick mixed with a bunch of variations of Hispanic. She seems really chill as well. Thursday is white and she already turned down a couple suggested meeting places. She may get replaced.

Is it safe to say if a chick messages you first you can...

 

[Master Zik]

Unless its a scam/bot

 

[thenewjs23]

I am so glad OKC got rid of the ability to see who visited. I was tired of accidentally viewing a fat chicks page and like clock work they hit me with the "hey".

Seen a chick on there back in 2012 that had all kind of pics bent over, flashing **** or whatever. FF to 2013 and she's in a motorized wheelchair after a car accident (she even had pics of the car that was crumpled up). Based on her profile, dudes we're still hitting her up trying to smash :x
