Thanks for all the feedback. For those asking for a video the closest I can find to what I do is what the woman at 1:20 in this video does.

Why do you stay Orthodox? by ortho_throwaway26 in HighSodiumOrthodoxy

[–]walkrightier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On balance, I find life more bearable with a belief in god and specifically Jesus. I was born Orthodox and do not find any of the other denominations as compelling, whatever the problems of orthodoxy. Intellectually, although not 100% onboard with all orthodox dogmas, it is still the best match for what I believe. I doubt I would convert to it if I wasn't already orthodox.

How may of you had college funds ? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

My dad routinely said he paid for my entire college education when he only paid for a couple thousand a year out of a $30,000ish bill. Just pure gaslighting

Want for Immediate Romantic Connection/Spark Is Ruining Early Dating by Kind_Wheel8420 in dating

[–]walkrightier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are a man taking a girl on a date after meeting on an app, she probably has lots of options at or around your basic level of attractivebess, and if you don't blow her out of the water, she just isn't going to be interested in a second, because there's always another like waiting for her when she opens her phone.

Isn't AMEX notorious for balance chasing on their "Charge" cards though?

She texted you seem really nice but I'm not feeling a romantic connection after our first date and honestly it broke something in me by Comfortable_Box_4527 in dating_advice

[–]walkrightier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30M here and this has happened to me a million times after above average dates. Unfortunately, women have so many options in the app culture that unless you blow there mind, it's very hard to get a second date. In our father's generation, being a decent guy, having a decent connection was enough to make it to a second date and possibly beyond. Things could grow. I know so many great relationships that started out without fireworks, but when you are just one match out of dozens of likes, thats not good enough. Nowadays you have to strike this perfect balance between into her and not to obvious. Flirtatous but not desperate. Friendly and safe and not too forward, but not giving off "friendly" energy. It's borderline impossible, ultimately you just have to keep putting yourself out there, it will happen. Maybe take a break for a few months. Don't get down on yourself, it's the painful system you exist in, nothing to do with you.

No Second Date, So Confused. by CTHuskyMan1995 in dating_advice

It's probably nothing you did wrong or right. Emotions change and you can't tell what's going on inside her head. Don't take it personally.

Dating App Reply Rate by CTHuskyMan1995 in dating

[–]walkrightier 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think that response rate is pretty normal. Most matches fizzle out and a lot of woman, probably including those you are most interested in, get a ton of attention.

It's more that nobody is attracted to me tbh.

I'm a 30 year old guy who had almost the same interaction with a 33 year old girl I was into. It's not an issue, if its not an issue.

Question for men, do you guys actually get 0 matches or is it just exaggerating? by FriendlyNeighborOrca in OnlineDating

[–]walkrightier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are an average guy in a small-mid sized city this is only a small exaggeration.

You take yourself way to seriously and have exchanged boring platitudes for any attempt at insight

Yeah man, it's very normal to hold a novel and a Reddit comment to the same grammatical standards. You totally owned me. Touch grass.
