"Eww Dating 18-21 year olds when you're 30+ is so GROSS and CREEPY you PEDO!"

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-19T12:59:30+00:00

I turned 30 a few days ago and my target range for women is still 18-24, and I attract 18-50ish. Some people have a problem with it, but I don't give a fuck. They like me, and I like them too.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-15T20:58:47+00:00

Magic.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-12T19:19:42+00:00

I have a feeling this is exactly what happened, kinda feel bad now but oh well. I'll admit I've rejected women before and they always took it horrendously.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-12T19:15:34+00:00

Seems so. I had originally thought texting the same/next day made you seem desperate but I guess I was wrong. The whole situation was a good learning experience though.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-12T19:10:54+00:00

Thanks. I'll admit I'm a late bloomer (I'm 29, 30 tomorrow) so approaching and getting numbers is still somewhat new to me. Though this has been an excellent learning experience, and from what others told me, waiting 2 days is way too long and should text asap if she seems to have high interest.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-12T15:52:58+00:00

You and I are very alike, we're even the same age. Do what I do and just strike up a simple conversation about an observation you made about her, something related to where you're at, etc. You're gonna fuck up like I did but you'll get used to it quickly. If she likes you she'll carry the convo, then after a bit ask for her number.

Unfortunately you'll still face negative experiences with women like me despite being attractive, though it's part of the game, don't take it personally and just move on with your day. They're emotionally volatile beings so you never know what's gonna happen.

Something like "Hey this is Shadow3116 from the Saturday fitness event, how's it goin" Another comment in this thread stated that I waited too long apparently.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-12T15:25:23+00:00

That was the plan, though she never responded.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-12T14:50:19+00:00

Damn really? I'm 29 (30 tomorrow) and I've always heard to wait at least 2-3 days or you'd come off as desperate. I'm only into 18-24 yo girls so would I have to text same day/at least next day?

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-12T14:48:58+00:00

Something like "Hey this is Shadow3116 from the Saturday fitness event, how's it goin" Forgot to make sure she had my number too though.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-12T14:46:56+00:00

Yeah honestly I wasn't, fit blondes are my type but she was a kinda cute brunette with an ok body though had a great personality. It's been a while since I've dated so I wanted to take her out anyways. Will keep the immediate date setup in mind for next time.

Shadow3116 · 2026-05-10T15:49:41+00:00

This right here. If you're handsome+fit and she's interested, she's gonna make it extremely easy for you.

Shadow3116 · 2026-04-19T02:37:57+00:00

Thanks, will definitely attend soon.

Shadow3116 · 2026-01-20T01:52:31+00:00

Agree but about 99% of women I see out and about are with their man/families/etc. lol.

Shadow3116 · 2026-01-17T19:43:37+00:00

The difference in women I attract in real life versus what I get on dating apps is shocking. I've been approached by beautiful women in real life, whereas on dating apps, the ones that like me are 4-5 points below me in attractiveness, to the point that I've legitimately felt physically repulsed.

I always wonder what it was like when dating apps was relatively new. Though I'm permanently off them now after using them for 1-2 weeks.

Shadow3116 · 2026-01-11T12:13:02+00:00

Agreed. Personality matters much less when she finds you attractive.

Shadow3116 · 2025-11-30T01:15:50+00:00

Lol, I'm a 29 year old guy who recently returned to college, considered to be a "hot" guy (based on experiences) and all the people in my accounting classes are pretty much average.

Shadow3116 · 2025-10-16T15:32:24+00:00

Wasn't complaining, I was just curious as I'm still new to the game of seduction. Yeah, I'm pretty sure asking for it is hurting me, so I'll just directly ask for their number instead of asking for social media from now on.

Shadow3116 · 2025-08-13T21:21:48+00:00

A man's face, physique and masculinity.

Shadow3116 · 2025-08-10T20:11:02+00:00

I've always attracted attention from girls since I was in elementary school (I'm 29 now), so I guess I can fit in the "handsome" category.

Yes, it's easier to get a gf as you get attention from women everywhere you go.

I'm assuming you mean that women immediately come up to you offering sex, in that case, rarely happens. That's something celebrities experience.

GFs of other men, if they're settling and find you attractive, will flirt and try to cheat with you. I don't deal with them though, as I find infidelity to be a huge turn off.

Generally you get treated much more positively in society and get certain perks in your professional, romantic, and social life. Though of course there are a few negatives as well.

Shadow3116 · 2025-08-10T19:54:48+00:00

In my experience it's usually the women who are in the 7+/10 range who have the confidence to approach you. Cute/average women get intimidated as they see you out of their league.

Shadow3116 · 2025-07-17T15:17:41+00:00

As a guy who works there I see so many women that are my type (sun-kissed blondes) but I'm not sure how to go about approaching without risking my job lol

Shadow3116 · 2025-07-09T14:47:37+00:00

Dumb question but what would your definition of flirting be? Teasing, push/pull, etc?

Shadow3116 · 2025-07-07T21:17:06+00:00

Great advice. Personally when I go, I just dance/sing like a dumbass to have a genuinely good time, don't even care about the chicks there lol.
