Popsicle Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 For those who are frustrated with online dating or dating in general. Some of this has been said here before but it never hurts to hear it again. How to Deal with Online Dating Fatigue - Esther Perel 1
ElizabethIII Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 I'll give that a read, thanks. I am just done with it. I have a seemingly nice guy on my tinder who has been texting now he has my number. But it is just chit chat now and again. Suggested things we should do but hasnt asked me out yet. WTF. Just wait?
dumbass2 Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 I'm a guy and if I'm interested in you and I get your number, I'm calling within 24 hours. I might send a text once I have the number letting the other person know that it's me and then they see my number before I call. If a guy has your number and hasn't called and is just chit chatting and not asking to met up, he is just not that interested in you and has others he is talking with that he is more interested in. Sure, you may get a call eventually, but the only reason I can think of is because the other one or ones have fallen through and he's making his way down the list. Oh, and you don't wait on anyone. My feeling with online dating is that momentum is really important when you first start talking to someone. If things aren't progressing fast enough and you don't sense the same level of interest, then you move on. There are just too many people on there wasting time and playing games.

Also, when you talk or text again and bring up things to do, then just throw a day out there and see what he says. You don't have to wait for the guy to ask you out, but that is usually the case if he is interested. If he is hesitant, then you have your answer. It should be "yeah, that sounds great let's do it" or "that day doesn't work but how about this day".
KBob Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 I had posted earlier in the week about going back on OLD. I started swiping and within two days I had completely lost interest. Matched with two women who were attractive to me in every way, but no response. I know this can happen in real life dating as well, but it made me realize that I don't agree with the doctrine or psychology of the online supermarket for dating, it's not in sync with the way I live my life. So I'm bowing out of it and will try my hand at making real life, face to face connections with women! 2
WaitingForBardot Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 ...a fatigue has taken hold as a result of the endless swiping, messaging and communicating that it takes to reach the moment of setting eyes upon a flesh-and-blood human being. This is the crux of the biscuit. Everything is meaningless until you actually meet in person.
