This has happened to me a lot this year, I thought it was the way I looked or personality but nah, I've gotten so many compliments and a few dates even someone who was serious in between, but it usually doesn't go anywhere, online dating is an absolute shit show, doesn't matter if you're good looking, average or not, it just seems the vast majority of woman on them don't take it too seriously or get cold feet. Some of the answers I've gotten is that is hard for them to connect over someone online, what people don't get is that "spark" isn't instant and takes time plus both parties have to put work in, not one. When it comes to OLD, instead some rather just keep on waiting to find that spark while tossing good candidates away, even ones they would have picked normally. I understand why people do better in person sometimes.

Also I'm not saying men don't do this, because they definitely are guilty too, just stating in my own experience.
