hurst9 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Feels goodman! What a total waste of time. I resorted to messaging women who I wouldn't normally even look at IRL. And yet still no response:D..When I am out in public I always get at least a couple of glances from attractive women..I am just too gutless to do anything about it. I am 30yrs of age so maybe OLD would be different for older people. But if you are young prepare to be ignored by women who receive hundreds of messages a day. I find it strange, these women get tons of messages, yet they still have their profiles up for months at a time! What is that about? Are they even serious about finding someone or are they there for the ego boost? I am never going back to OLD. I am an attractive man in good shape and I deserve a hell of a lot better than to be totally ignored by some 5/10 bish with an over inflated ego. Men, just don't do OLD, you are too good for it and the women on it. OLD truly is the toilet of the internet.

mesmerized Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 lol, so you get a couple of glances from attractive women and that's enough to make you feel attractive? man, I wish I was a man. 2
KatZee Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Le sigh..... What is with a man's mentality of entitlement that any woman who automatically does not want to F&k him is a total btich?? ^ This. Seriously. Boys grow up being told that they should be entitled to the hot woman. There was a whole article about this. 5 Ways Modern Men Are Trained to Hate Women | Cracked.com #5.

outsidethebox Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 I'm trying to figure out what a woman would see in him. About the best he can come up with is trash talking women.

If not, how is this any different in outcome than your OLD experience? 1
Barnacle-Bob Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 But did any of these "glances" result in an actual conversation, let alone a date? If not, how is this any different in outcome than your OLD experience? Exactly. Since I've been typing this, I've had 3 girls glance at me. The only thing it means is that they can see. I agree that OLD is a joke, but you can have fun with it if you know what you're doing. Like the thread I started earlier....put up a profile that makes women guess and wonder about you. Don't just puke yourself onto your profile. Be a mystery. If girls are ignoring you on OLD (or IRL), maybe rework your marketing strategy. You could be good looking and make $$$, but you could also be as boring as a dead turtle. If you come off that way, even the 5s will pass.

SJC2008 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I never felt entitled to a how woman, I've always been realistic. I don't know if most men have this mentality but I don't.
SJC2008 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I once had a POF account. I used it for amusement. That site has the scummiest sleaziest duds Ive never had the enjoyment of meeting in real life. I actually only met one in real life for the entire year I was on that site and I got about 2 messages every single day on there. I tell everyone to stay off of it because on tons of male forums Ive read on the internet they say POF is the place to go to get casual sex and many of them wrote to pretend they want something more serious in order to get it. 95% of my messages were "you are beautiful" and "hi Im ___" and "how are you doing this weekend?" I read that link about how men are entitled to a hot woman several months ago....its so true! Men in the 40's and 50's were much more satisfied with wives in their league than compared to today. If anything your 40's and 50's argument works against you. Back then men were the "buyers" since they were the breadwinners and women typically didn't work. When you're a "seller" you can't be too picky. Women are independant now and arent't waiting for some man to take care of them like back then; They can afford to be picky and are the "buyers" now.
irc333 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Decades from now, American nursing homes will be inundated with a flood of unhappy old female narcissists whose Prince Charming never arrived... LOL Disillusioned.....I took leave of POF for a while....came back recently....and I'm STILL seeing the same faces with bitter profiles about not being able to find decent men. MOst of these women which I've already emailed prior, only to never get a response.....yeah, these are probably the same women you will speak of.....all we need now is another "single ladies Christmas Story" where you see the "Ghost of Christmas Future" pointing silently at a "headstone".

irc333 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Since I renewed my account, I've been emailing these same women, again......wonder if they even remember me. LOL

Men, just don't do OLD, you are too good for it and the women on it. OLD truly is the toilet of the internet. OLD works but you need to be very patient and contact lots of women. It's like fishing in an overcrowded place..... And you need to have some "killer" pics on your profile because that's the first place where women look. OLD hasn't worked out for me, but I have friends who are in LTR with pretty attractive girls they met on OLD -- I must add that those guys are quite good looking.....
ThatDudeXO Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 OLD is a disaster for me. Girls just seem to have an incredibly high standard on there. I'm usually successful when I'm out and I do get hit on every now and then but on OLD I get no messages or responses at all. I don't know what it is. I've tried everything on there. Bashing women isn't the right way express your dismay with OLD, even though what you said is true. 1
hazeleyes2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I had a POF account...total waste! 99% of the time you get what you pay for..and POF is a free site!
soccerrprp Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I had a POF account...total waste! 99% of the time you get what you pay for..and POF is a free site! I've noticed this too.
SarahPerry Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 well,i tried some dating sites,boring spams,scammers,smarmy guys... i haven't been on dating sites for about 5 months:(
ls32ssibm Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I had a POF account...total waste! 99% of the time you get what you pay for..and POF is a free site! Make no mistake, the paid sites are just as worthless. Especially the ones who have mainly members that can't read your messages.
Nicomis Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 If you are a really attractive man, go ahead and use POF, and get all the sex you can, but use an alias. Truth is, these women get on that site to have their ego stroked, and maybe they are looking for "Mr. Right" but you better believe they are keeping the bed warm "Mr. Wrong but hot" in the process. They go on dates with "nice guys", get a free meal and drinks, then suddenly when the hour gets late, the hand goes up, and "nice guy goes home with nothing. She goes home, calls "Shirtless mirror cell phone guy" and shags him up till the wee hours. Then, when he doesn't call her back, she calls "Mr Nice Guy" to buy her dinner and the cycle continues. Now they are horrible people, and filthy skanks, but you can't fault them. It's like window shopping for them. As long as a man will tell an overweight skank she's sexy, and have sex with her, she's gonna believe it. Solution is men, just get off those sites and meet women in person. Those sites give average, and even hideous women a God complex. The great thing about women, as opposed to men, is that attraction can be built with women. OLD takes that away from us. Women on those sites are basically reduced to being like men. Tough to hear, but it is what it is. We see a woman and we either find her attractive or don't and that isn't likely to change. Women IRL aren't like that, attraction can be built with personality. Men lose that edge in OLD. 2

Men, just don't do OLD, you are too good for it and the women on it. OLD truly is the toilet of the internet. I tell you something. I went to visit my friend last weekend, I stayed at his home and for a laugh we set up a plenty of fish page. He set it up of himself with a few details changed. He claimed he was 26, worked as a store assistant, and didn't have a car. But guess what? He posted up a couple of shirtless pics and I Bulls**t you not, by the end of the day I think he had about 10 messages. The next day he had an extra 3 messages, all from young women (and a couple older) who were at least a 7 or 8/10. One girl was really cute and said "nice body, why are you on a dating site?" and he was chatting to her, leading her on and could have easily got a date with her. I think that just proves how shallow some girls can be when appearance comes into play on a dating site.
