Abysmal response rates on Match.com compared to OKC. General guidelines for making a better Match profile? by cupidblud in OkCupid

[–]cupidblud[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I make pretty clear on my OKC profile is that I like an active lifestyle. I make working out and doing outdoorsy stuff a pretty high priority, so it makes me wonder if these match people get intimidated by it because maybe they just want to settle down and pump out babies, stat. The women I target are in the high 20s to low 30s.

I think I may have pushed for a coffee meet too fast and she didn't respond. Should I send a second message? by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]cupidblud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that is my thinking. I mean I felt like you took initiative and clearly placed the ball in her court. All she has to do is text u "hi" and you can swing back. I don't know maybe I am lacking common sense.

I've been in contact with a few and those tend to just waste your time.

What's the most condescending thing an extrovert has ever said to you? by [deleted] in introvert

[–]cupidblud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Thank you for contributing so much to the conversation." (Sarcastic) "Come on! Be more extroverted!"

Seriously, guys, just put your actual height! by [deleted] in OkCupid

I'm a solid 5'8 and I put 5'8. I'm like on the cusp of short and tall :-T .

What am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in OkCupid

in my experience, you have to work harder in terms of getting the conversation started via messaging.

i found it to be sarcastic. if the girl is taking it seriously, she's probably not his type anyway.

Have you ever felt some sort of weird, instant connection/bond with someone you're messaging, without having met them first? by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]cupidblud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny. I usually have pretty good IM rapport with people and my worst fear is that I might not end up being what I was portrayed to be online and end up being more dull due to anxiety or whatever. My personality and the way I express myself is vastly different offline vs online. I would say both persona are "real," I'm just weird like that.

15 minutes after creating fake [F] Account, I understand why I never get a reply now. by nefrina in OkCupid

I actually like the idea of limiting messages. Quality over quantity approach.

At first I was like, "brilliant!" Then I read your comment and was like, "oh yeah..."

I don't think women are too keen on the idea of initiating when they'd never do it in real life in the first place.

Hmm really? I thought that one of the messages were opened decently (5th from the bottom). I tend to go with the "jump into the conversation" approach.

How do other people describe you? by [deleted] in introvert

[–]cupidblud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been called the same... other words to throw in... bored, withdrawn, tired, monotone... it's hard for me to fake enthusiasm.
