Seriously online dating is about having good looking main photo and other photos at certain social events which helps complement your main photo. Also for your advantage dont put a date stamp on your photo, your best looking photo can be four years old and if she notices you have an old good looking photo she wont message you. Average women to BBW will probably get more hits on her profile than an average guy would from any girl online.

You don't need photos at social events, I have one photo and get plenty of messages.

Not at social events, but at least in a place where your socializing. A photo with another woman might also help.

Nearly all of them looked at my profile and read my message and not a single response.

I'm facing facts here. I'm not physically attractive. I'm not very interesting. I'm never going to have what a girl wants. I've got to accept it, dating and me are never going to mix.

(Alcohol and frustration are beginning to wear off)

Okay, just what the makes ladies respond to you when you ain't got much that they want?
Maybe they want to contact you but can't because they are not paying to use the site and payment is required to make contact?

I know they will but what if you show them more and then they don't like you? Might as well show them all and not waste time.

Because the world's top priority is not noticing you? Like, maybe people have other things to do at that moment and will get around to logging in later on?

Just a thought.

If you have a nice photo you will get LOTS OF CLICKS from woman all over the country. So if my pic is posted for 5 hours and no one clicked on my profile to view it then that means it's not a good picture.

Why would women all over the country click on your profile, if they're too far away to date you, unless you're offering money? Most people look within a certain geographic area, they don't log onto NYC just to cruise the photos.

Because if someone thinks you are HOT they just may want to take a closer look at you because you look good. I have done the same thing when I see a HOT GIRL who lives in Texas. It's normal to want to look at attractive people no matter where they live
