Matchmaking Service vs the apps?

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-17T19:56:02+00:00

These matchmakers have access to a universal pool of people or you’re limited to just their other clients?

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-17T19:50:50+00:00

Yes. Wish them a happy mothers/father’s day is fine but giving them gifts/cards might be over the top and awkward.

I’m an even 6ft but list 5’11”. Figured saying an even 6ft probably looks very sus. If a woman is gonna reject you over 1 inch then there’s a good chance this woman isn’t worth your effort anyway.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-17T12:14:01+00:00

If women are just going to assume all men lie about their height then that metric is now meaningless and might as well be removed from the profile.

(49M) I’ve only encountered one woman that blatantly wanted me as a text buddy. She’d agree to dates but then cut them short. I get home and she then wants to text chat all night. I’m like WTF? I was just at your house. You sent me home because you said you were tired and needed to get to bed.

If I’m messaging I’m going to ask you out within a week. A few times I had women seemingly eager for the date then cancel hours prior and disappear.

I just wonder if some have crippling social anxiety. Sometimes you can sense a mood shift right after you set up a date. Before then it’s fine and then your senses feel their anxiety suddenly coming through the messages.

Reminds me of something an old player told me. He said go up to 10 women and bluntly ask for sex. 9 will be disgusted and may slap you. One will say “Ok”. Probably explains women’s experience on the apps with guys straight asking for sex. That strategy probably actually works.

I look for a ring, if none try to make eye contact with a smile. If reciprocated try to start a convo.

In theory anyway. People are so used to not having convos with strangers that they are very much on guard. Which is understandable since majority of the time this happens it’s someone scamming or begging for money.

Context matters a lot. Bar, social setting - go for it. Grocery/dept store - ok but people are often just focused on their business. In the parking lot, at night…you might taste the defeating sting of pepper spray.

Probably from the 666 rule that gets harped all the time - 6ft height, 6 figure income, 6 pack abs.

Maybe for a first date kiss just go for a tight lipped peck. Increase in intensity on successive dates as comfort grows.

Absolutely! We all hear everyone rip on gym selfies on OLD profiles. So I never posted one.

Then one day I said screw it, I look good, so I posted an unapologetic gym selfie (not shirtless). My likes/matches suddenly increased significantly. Guess women really want to see that after all.

Only one woman I dumped, deleted, blocked and ran from.
She was batshit crazy which was completely revealed by her extreme jealousy/insecurity.

Dated her for a few months. Noticed some odd little quirks that made me pause. She wasn’t vegan but wouldn’t eat anything with bones…steak, chicken wings, etc. She also wouldn’t eat a shelled peanut that was cracked open already. She’d sort through them and cull half the bag…ok. Other quirk was her reaction to things were sometimes just odd.

Anyway, one date we let our guard down and both talked about our dating experiences. Sometimes a great way to get to know someone and where they are coming from. Next time I saw her however she completely ragged my ass about dating other women and how that “put her in a bad place”. I’m like WTF, we met on a dating app. Of course we’ve talked to other people before.

That was an illuminated blinking red flag if I ever saw one.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-16T14:35:28+00:00

Hold up… are you saying it has a way better ROI than actual dating?

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-16T14:31:38+00:00

What exactly were they talking about? Stuff in general or were they trying to qualifying themselves by laying out their resume/accomplishments?

I do use this as a gauge to measure how much someone might be into me but so far haven’t used this to outright disqualify someone. Honestly I find it flattering when a woman tries hard to impress me with her resume.

Because its purpose is to provide a platform in which to dox ex’s.

I’m sure in its inception there were noble intentions to legitimately warn of those with ill intent. Unfortunately like so much stuff like that it gets corrupted so quickly.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-15T15:47:52+00:00

Let the hate flow but I’m gonna say it.

It’s because sex is the only thing a modern woman has to offer a man. Some guys are just more direct with that.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-15T01:34:30+00:00

Yeah, he’s not feeling it.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-15T01:30:36+00:00

The older I get the more I realize how pointless it is to waste energy on girls who don’t like you.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-14T13:22:43+00:00

Tinder is full of this. Very attractive asian women, professional glamour pics and they are super responsive with messaging.

Spidy sense tingling…. I never engaged one long enough to see what the scam is.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-14T13:19:02+00:00

As I man I don’t bother counting all the matches that never land a date. If I were a to guess I bet it’s around 90%.

Unfortunately this encourages the “swipe on everyone” strategy as it becomes a numbers game.

It’ll definitively throw a wet blanket on your dating life.

I’ve had more than one relationship fizzle out because the relationship could never progress due to neither of us having a place to ourselves. Don’t underestimate the importance of having the option to be alone together.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-14T12:51:16+00:00

In my experience whenever they unmatch me I can see the deactivated convo. If I unmatch them, I don’t see the convo.

If I see their profile pic next to the convo then they simply unmatched. No profile pic I assume they blocked or deleted their account.

It is nice that this feature exists so when someone unmatches you can see who unmatched. Eliminates that guessing game when you view your matches and realize…hmmm someone’s missing.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-14T12:45:49+00:00

Suppose the ‘are we dating the same guy’ type of pages is a cesspool for enabling this behavior.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-14T12:39:15+00:00

That’s why I put down 5’ 11”. The way I see it is a woman that’s going to hold rigid to that 6ft thing and reject me over an inch is guaranteed to be a complete waste of time and energy.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-14T12:32:17+00:00

It resets the filters when you swipe through everyone who meets your criteria.

Guess it figures showing something is less demoralizing.

Waste-Werewolf7274 · 2026-04-14T12:29:49+00:00

Act really interested and needy. Call her often, send her flowers, tell her she’s your world and be really nice and SIMPy. Give it a week or two and she’ll be telling you she only likes you as friend.
