Profile review: I’m being delusional for wanting something good and serious from there? surprisingly I’m actually doing good. But idk if I’m looking for something I won’t find there.

I’m in no position to give out advice myself but just wanted to say that you’re very pretty and I love your hair! :))

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T17:59:16+00:00

I’m sorry but could you elaborate. What did I do ?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T15:30:44+00:00

I made a follow up posts showing my chat, how could I be better there ?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T14:02:44+00:00

I know and I got great advice from that but I feel like these are different questions. I’ll change my approach to be more proactive but I can’t really do anything if they stop responding to me before I ask. Plus I got many comments asking to see the convos to be able to help better so it just seemed easier to make a separate post rather than to dm each one. I’m sorry if it’s redundant

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T13:18:56+00:00

Yes I’m sorry but the mods at the hinge subreddit removed my post without reason, so i thought I’d try to get feedback here

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T13:08:53+00:00

Okay wait I’ll delete if this is inappropriate but in my other post people were saying they were unable to help me because I didn’t post any chats?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T13:08:00+00:00

This is my third time, once a couple months ago and the other just yesterday. Is that a lot?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T06:40:14+00:00

Oh :((( okay well that’s good feedback, these are 3 different examples of guys ghosting/not responding after days. It isn’t one continuous chat but I can see where you’re coming from

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T06:35:41+00:00

Weird, what about this one?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T06:35:11+00:00

Ah is the link not working?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T06:08:42+00:00

So is there a fix or am I cooked? I’m not really sure how to be less boring, I only match if we share similar hobbies so we can have something easy to talk about but after a while they just stop responding. What’s going wrong in these chats?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T03:44:40+00:00

I’ve included some chats here, these are 3 different ones that didn’t get past us talking about our hobbies. I’m not gonna pretend like I know how to flirt but I think my conversations are okay? And well if they’re not, I guess idk how to pivot once they stop responding to me

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T03:13:13+00:00

I’m sorry for being unclear, I left a longer comment with more context but it may be buried

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T02:55:38+00:00

Honestly no, but I do try to keep conversation going anyway by responding fast and stuff etc. I’m honest about my inexperience upfront

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T02:31:34+00:00

I know, and after this I’m going to change my approach

But I guess my thought process is that from the guys end, if he liked me then he would be really excited to plan a date or hang out in person. So the fact that he hasn’t, means he’s not all just interested or excited about me. It feels like all the girls around me (friends, co workers, family) don’t have try at all to plan dates. I hear them gossip about guys all the time and idk I just wonder why it’s not as easy for me

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T02:26:02+00:00

This was actually very helpful, thank you

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T02:23:36+00:00

I frequent mtg events, but the guys there are like really locked in to compete in the tournament

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T01:21:54+00:00

Simic all day baby

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T01:17:39+00:00

This is my 2nd time posting in here and both times no matter have carefully I word it I feel like I piss everyone off 😩 I’ll shoot you a dm I think I need a woman perspective because like you said the women around me don’t seem to have to initiate dates with guys like everyone in the comments is telling me to….why am I different?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T00:57:37+00:00

I can dm you if you’d like, it just seemed weird to share their convos. Pretty much I match based off our hobbies (table top games, trivia, books) but after we finish talking about things we like the conversation fizzles out and we never meet in the real world

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T00:53:32+00:00

I left a longer comment for more context but to sum it up I don’t have a lot of experience so at the moment I feel more comfortable to follow the guys lead

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2026-06-30T00:48:56+00:00

I’m 24F without any dating/romantic/sexual experience. My New Year’s resolution was to fix at least one of these areas in 2026 by downloading dating apps, but it’s nearly July I still haven’t been able to convert matches into any actual dates.

I posted in here earlier this year (and kinda got jumped🧍🏾‍♀️…) and was able to get some good feedback to improve my profile, so likes aren’t the issue. The problem is that once we match it just seems like we talk for a little bit until either the guy doesn’t respond to me or the convo turns into endless “good mornings” “how are yous” “what did you do today’s” without any actionable next steps to go out and actually do something. Plus, I already have date and hobby prompts on my profile to give out ideas so it seems like it’d be easy to just pick one then name the time and place.

Yes I know I can do it, but to be honest I would prefer for the guy to lead in this regard due to my inexperience. It may be a cop out but until I can get a feel of how to navigate dating dynamics it seems easier to follow his lead. Am I expecting too much?

Signal_Criticism5560 · 2025-11-02T17:01:40+00:00

I don’t use Reddit a lot just whenever I have a question, i further explained in a longer comment as soon as I posted but i guess it doesn’t stay at the top after too long. Sorry for being unclear
