bobsmith76 Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 I signed up for match.com and was simply overwhelmed at the sheer number of profiles. I know it takes a lot of work to get a date because I've been trying to get one on okcupid for a year and I only got two dates. I have a feeling that match.com might be slightly easier because there the women are more motivated since you have to pay, plus I got 13 contacts after only 102 profile views whereas on ockupid I probably get about 4 contacts after a 100 views. I know that real world interaction is better but it's very hard for me to get out into the real world due to my sleep disorder. (I work night shift and often have problems getting to bed before noon so I often end up sleeping in the evening). Plus, I keep a tally of my success with dating in the real world and the last 13 women that I've talked to that I wanted to date, 11 of them were not single, though doubtlessly some were lying and the 2 that weren't did not want to exchange numbers with me. Back to the point, I am very tempted to simply go for quantity of emails rather quality. I've always hated the idea of sending out poor quality emails to women since I consider it rude. However, I know that the odds of getting a date are roughly 1 in 5 if you are highly similar and about 1 in 30 if you are moderately similar so I'm very tempted to simply send out winks. Women, would you ever reject a guy that looked good on paper and that seemed compatible just because he winked you?
