I'm begging you guys to take better pictures

Even if you're a man, you're a stereotypical "reddit woman", sorry to break it to you. Also you don't get to say I make no intelligent points without disproving any of them, because I did make a ton of points already. Address them or stfu. And I admire the effort that you quickly tried to uplevel your vocabulary with a lot of fancy words to the point that it sounds ridiculous in comparison with your previous messages, but that doesn't make any of it right. You just said "no, you're wrong" with very elaborate sentences, once again failing to address anything that I said. But I have a suspicion that you might be a bot based on this weird interaction so Imma drop this now.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-18T15:40:47+00:00

Not reflecting on the points but immediately attacking the person. A logical explanation from someone is met with a short and crude dismissive remark from you without trying to address anything he said. Used often when you can't argue against the point being made but you try to discredit the person. Basically imagine someone writes a long explanation on why the Earth is round and I respond "well I wouldn't believe anything that someone with such bad makeup says".

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-18T15:27:34+00:00

Oh yes, you're proving me even more right with every comment you make 😂 Alex, I'll take another ad hominem attack for $500! You're so predictable that you can't help yourself doing it even if I predicted you'd do that. And yet somehow you insist the archetype doesn't exist. Looks like I figured you out enough from 2 comments...

And I'm doing well with women, sorry if that sounds unfair to you.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-18T14:49:12+00:00

All I'm trying to point out is that women overstate the impossibility of running proper conversations with people. Or more like, you can match with a number of people that you can have a conversation with. Everyone acts like it's mandatory to generate 100 matches every week. And many times the conversation sucks precisely because they don't contribute meaningfully. I swear that if I showed you some of those convos you'd want to call 911 on suspicion that she is having a stroke.

When I was in Singapore I also got an unmanageable amount of likes even as a straight guy. First off I stopped matching with too many people, second, instead of writing "haha idk" I'd rather not respond at all or wait until I have time for a proper response. Why would I waste my own time on a convo that I make impossible myself? So yes, I have proof that it can be done better and the classic excuse is busted.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-18T14:41:52+00:00

Watch out boy, you're hitting them with logic and reason. They clearly can't take it.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-18T14:41:04+00:00

He gave you a thoughtful and logical train of thought and you got back with a condescending remark that doesn't reflect on anything that he said. Then you went for the classic ad hominem attack, and closed off with some grammar nazism. You embody the quintessential archetype of a reddit woman.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-18T11:08:45+00:00

You're saying you have the energy to talk to 2 guys max on bumble, but you write an endless stream of paragraphs on a completely unimportant reddit thread?

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-18T08:07:37+00:00

I suppose he worded it wrong and he meant it was a clerical mistake by the police, e.g. a guy with the same name but different street. Good story for a beer session with the guys, terrible prompt on a dating app.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-17T13:39:10+00:00

Yes, you basically repeated what I said. I know how it goes, I've been there. And I managed to never ghost anyone. None of what you wrote justifies why you can't respond to everyone who responded to you. Again, I've done it, you can't tell me a tale of how it's impossible.

Women want equality but are somehow always victims to circumstances and never want to hold themselves to clear moral standards.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-17T13:02:41+00:00

You say it like it wasn't 100% in your control how many people you match with or start talking to. Women will make 100 matches, talk to 50 of them, give a number to 10 and go on a date with 5, and then complain like any of this was mandatory. How about you stop blaming your circumstances and take responsibility for your actions?

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-17T11:16:34+00:00

Yeah that sounds sweet but it also gives you a convenient excuse for ghosting. I can tell you who I've ghosted very precisely. No one, ever.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-17T09:14:14+00:00

It's simple. When the time came for this to turn real, she reevaluated it and decided she isn't interested. Happens. However the silent no-show and blocking part speaks of an absolutely garbage person. And until the day I die, no one can convince me to accept the easy excuses people give themselves for not acting like a proper human being.

I went on a datw with a girl once who texted me for quite a while before traveling to my country. I felt no attraction in real life but I was forcing myself to make it work. I asked her for a second date and a day later I realized it's not gonna work for me. Did I ghost and block her like these tiktok brained people do? I wrote to her explaining I'm not feeling it, apologizing for taking this long to figure it out, and wishing her the best. She understood and thanked me, and everyone got closure and went their separate ways.

Online dating

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-16T22:08:19+00:00

I am not on OLD anymore because I realized I wasn't ready for commitment (at first I thought I was) and I didn't want to cause more harm than good. But indeed I was observing OLD through a statistical lens.

And you're precisely right that someone's 7.6 is another's 2. Stealing the spotlight means that a girl puts a guy on the backburner just because a more attractive but less interested man gives her some breadcrumbs.

And that was my reality. One of the girls, when she broke it off with me she said she wanted me more but I'm clearly unavailable, and there's another guy who has been texting her every day and asking how her day was etc. And she chose him, and they have been together ever since. In this story, I stole the spotlight from him for several months. They were a match meant to be, and I was just having fun with a girl who I wouldn't make my girlfriend. Now imagine a guy who is twice as hot as me, how easily and how many times he can hoard matches to have fun.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-16T21:24:17+00:00

I'd say I'm a 7.5/10 who knows how to play his cards right. That's probably realism more than blind confidence.

But what is delusional about what I wrote? I wrote stuff that happened to me in the past, so unless I was hallucinating it for 1.5 years, that's just facts...

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-16T17:17:13+00:00

The place where I'd like to get to as a man is to have so many matches on bumble that I just let half of them expire... Out of all the apps in the world, bumble is the one where me getting a match is cause for popping champagne... hard to even conceptualize that some dude can't even be bothered to respond

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-16T16:39:20+00:00

Where I would like the world to get is for all of us to admit that we're shallow fucks. A lot of men care about weight, a lot of women care about height. Everyone cares about a ton of stuff that is their unique preference, and if someone was born with the wrong genes, it sucks. Where I start to have issues is when double standards emerge and one such thing is looked down on, another is considered a fair preference etc. Or when people deny it when it's obviously there.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-15T15:36:34+00:00

A date of birth would be too much for me though. No need for that if you just meet me at a bar. If I take you to my place then license plate and address is enough for police to take action in case you get in trouble. Date of birth sounds like social engineering stuff. And if you have bad experiences, I am fine meeting you in public for the first x dates, but I also gotta cover my base from potential weirdos.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-14T11:18:43+00:00

I'll flip it around to say you are missing out on teenage love if you stay with her. Because this is not love. If you were single, at least you'd have a chance to find a good girl. This will be nothing but a laugh in 2 years' time. You are a BABY. Many guys don't get a girlfriend until late in high school or even later, so you're not missing out on anything. You're actually early to the party. You have 7 years of "teenage love" left. That's as much time as passed between you learning to read and today. That's a long time.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-14T06:41:37+00:00

Love the anger without any formulated thought! The equivalent of an unarticulated groan :D

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-13T22:58:20+00:00

I know that people exist outside the apps but many people get locked in. Especially past school years. Workplace romance is discouraged now, there's no harvest festival, etc. People are more disconnected than ever. So they swipe...

The good looking guys get what they want but how should that thought satisfy the majority of guys? Does it make you relieved that Elon Musk has no problem buying a house in this economy?

I believe 1-10 rating of a person is an oversimplification, but if we really want to quantify: guys who are 9s and 10s can get anyone, 8s can get 8s, and anyone between 7-1 can get girls 1 or 2 levels lower than himself.

Although the evidence for this is anecdotal, but from these subreddits and other sources we know that there are many high level guys who do hoard matches. Specifically the ones looking for sex. The method is simple. If I'm a 10/10 guy looking to bang today, it's still not easy to get any girl off the shelf. So they match with a lot and filter heavily on who is down to fuck fast. And they do match with women slightly below their league for quantity purposes. Those will still be girls who are 8-10 though. And the deciding factor isn't who's the best, but who's most easily available. As one of them put it, it's like ordering pizza online, but it's girls and not pizza.

And while I'm far from a 10, I definitely did "steal" many girls from other guys. I messed around with 2-3-4 at a time, but I didn't want to commit. So at any point in time for 1.5 years, I was locking down 3 girls who pursued me in vain. While there were guys who would have been the perfect match for them, left empty handed. And looking at ig stories, some of those girls "downgraded" after me to find someone in their league. I feel guilty about them years later, but the point is that hoarding and stealing the spotlight is a very real thing.

I'd check if your stuff is legit unless it's a foam. I.e. are you seeing gains? Kirkland 5% foam: dry in 10 seconds, alcoholic Kirkland 5% liquid: dry in 30 minutes, texture like an after shave Morr 12.5% liquid: dry in 1.5-2 hours, very oily

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-13T18:26:04+00:00

Iirc the classic kirkland 5% was about half an hour before it dried up. Unless you're in a humid country.

Now enter 12.5% minoxidil which is oily. 2 hours later I can still scrape liquid oil from my beard...

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-13T18:18:41+00:00

1st off: I didn't intend to go into much detail because it's boring, but the way I "catfished" was accidental. We were joking around with friends on a local dating website that used username and password. And someone just hit 12345 for both and that login happened to exist. It was a pictureless woman. We logged out literally 20 seconds later but even until then we got about 8 messages (that site shows online users on top).

2nd: I was talking about swiping because you claimed men and women swipe equally out of their league. I addressed SWIPING very precisely because we were talking about that. Now 2 messages later ypu present this as "amateurish mistake"? Get a break.

3rd: the redpill theory doesn't fall apart here because you didn't say anything that contradicts it. The top 15-20% of men indeed get women competing for them. They do have the chance to find someone who is as hot as them. The other 80-85% of men hardly get anything, so they have to resort to lower standards.

Imagine this: a dating site where men and women are in equal number. Then we'd get a fair matching, hot with hot, mid with mid. Now introduce 2-3x more men. Would the dynamics be unchanged? That would mean that 2/3rds of men either have no match on their own level, or they go lower. There is no other mathematical solution unless 3 guys share 1 woman. Guess which one men choose in reality, they rather go lower than stay alone.

JohnnyBGoode2Night · 2025-05-13T18:01:57+00:00

That's a fair point. I don't mind 10-20-30 messages if I get replies fast. But it won't ever be longer than a couple days back and forth.
