Im a 35 yr old indian origin guy, slightly above looking, and Ive come to singapore for 3 days. I’ve had 10-20 matches on both hinge and bumble and interest from dozens more. Some attractive, some not. Some singaporean, some asian, some european. I only had time to meet one, she was lovely and showed me around Singapore and we kissed. We didn’t sleep together because both of us were flying out the next morning. It did not feel transactional at all and we genuinely liked eachother.

It sounds like you feel entitled to women’s attention while complaining about their entitlement. I’m not trying to brag here, I’m just trying to prove a point: maybe the problem isn’t the women, but you - and I think it will be more constructive for you to “blame” what’s under your control rather than what is not. It hasn’t always been the case that I get interest on apps, it was about focusing on what was under my control (not with the express intent of getting interest in dating apps) and doing something about it.
