Most women (especially on free sites such as POF) don't take online dating seriously. They are there for attention whoring/validation, not to actually meet men. That's why the flake ratio is so high. They'll give you their phone number with no intention of ever meeting up.

 

I know that as guy, you are probably wondering: this doesn't make any sense...why would a girl want to waste time emailing, texting and talking to a guy she has no intention of meeting? But that's the way women are. Attention is like water to them. If they don't get hit on often enough in real life, they take their attention whoring online.

 

Sadly, a lot of men do this too. Happened to me a lot when I was on POF last year...I got so sick of it that I finally decided to delete my account.

here's what i like - and i'm a girl on OKC for real, no attention-whoring.

 

few emails back and forth, "getting to know you" type thing - i like to see if they're worth my time and we have stuff in common.

 

one of us gives a number, if i don't offer it first, the dude usually gives me his.

 

one of us sends a text saying hello, what's up etc.

 

he asks me out or i ask him out, we make a date via text.

 

might send one or two more texts before the date if it's a week away (as my current one is) just to keep me in their minds - i call them "closed" texts, the don't invite a full on conversation, i end with something closed so they can text back if they like but it's unlikely i'll text them back since a convo won't really arise.

 

meet them and go from there.

 

no phone calls - i don't want to chat for ages to somebody i've never met, particularly since i'm not a phone person.

 

no lengthy texts or cutesy "hey how's it going", and definitely no texting every day. that feels desperate and unnecessary since i don't know the person. it turns me off if they try to do that, and then yes, i do flake out on them.
