This isn't a "swearing off women" thread or anything.

 

 

 

But, I think it's best I give up on actively seeking out a girlfriend. I've been on many, many dates over the past 2 years or so that I've been single, but nothing has become of them really. Oh, I am a 24/M whose been described as an 8 many, many times just to give you the DL.

 

 

So, I think at the end of the month or so I am going to completely remove my OLD profiles. It has been disastrous for me and I am starting to think the stereotypes about women on OLD are almost entirely true.

 

 

My current "social circle" gives me very little opportunity to meet a girl, and I feel "expanding" my social circle with the SOLE intent on hoping to get a girlfriend will constitute "looking".

 

 

What do you guys think? Leave it up to fate at this point and just focus on myself?

I'm interested in what people say, I'm in a similar situation, I'm 24, described often by females as good looking, a great guy and other compliments.

 

I've made two OLD profiles, netted a few dates from them, but nothing really came of them. Mostly due to disinterest on my side, but likely theres as well.

 

I also get a lot of dates out of bars but none of them have come to anything as well. I think I'm going to wait till I just meet a nice girl randomly.

Networking and social circle is the way to go if you are looking for a gf.

You're going better than me. I haven't been able to get a date in 2 years. I have suite tickets for the NFL playoff game in Atlanta today and still couldn't get a date.

I feel what you mean OP. Online dating attracts people who are looking for something unrealistic 90% of the time. Women with laundry list of must haves a mile long. All kinds of people who are serial daters or married an looking to cheat. etc.

 

Then it often seemed to me anyone I clicked on line with was at least 1000 miles away. A big waste of time.

The average woman is as averse to the stereotypical "boy stuff" that is foot ball as the average man is averse to the supposed "girl stuff" that is Ballet.
