i'm going to be similarly chiseled, I'm not going to adopt his angry look


I have a very warm smile/eyes. I'm going to take advantage of that in my pics

So you are buying dates?

No way you get long term relationships from women who get paid to go out with you....

Because otherwise I am sorry to say, there is no way in hell you'are an 8-ish by comparison to that photo being a 10 and approaching women and they're just blowing you off. To quote Steve Martin: oh...no...way.

I mean...something else is up.

I had 6 strangers in a month call me "gorgeous" to "extremely handsome" to "a beautiful man". Clients at work, a married woman at a bar, etc... I swear to god I'm not lying.


Finding attractive women my age who would be willing to go out on a date with me is damn near impossible. It doesn't make any sense to you? Imagine how little sense it makes to me


Not only am I that attractive, I made around 160K last year (at 26 years of age) living in a very reasonable cost of living area. It's around a top 0.01% income for men under 30

It's paying the website, the women aren't paid to go on dates. They're random women selected from online dating sites


That may be a little extreme, I think I'm going to try with just the profile written for me first.

Don't put a long list of wants and don'ts there.


5-6 lines are completely enough. Nobody wants to read a novel. Be funny if it goes with the flow but don't be corny.


I had long profiles, I had short ones, the result overall was the same.
Short profiles very rarely worked for me. They needed to be exceptional in order for me to take notice. I gravitated toward longer, meatier profiles, as my was quite long. My opportunities/matches never suffered for it, either. My matches, men who were good or excellent matches, typically had longer, detailed profiles and enjoyed the same in their matches.

I went to a bar on Saturday and was making friends with some random strangers. I asked one of the guys there if I should hit on this girl and he goes "for sure dude. I don't want to sound gay but you're a very good looking guy. I think you would have success". Of course, I approached her and she wanted nothing to do with me
Serious Q for ya:

Did you actually SPEAK to her or just stand there staring and frighten her?

Just curious...what's the difference between a "stranger", and a " random stranger"?

Slow your roll, bruh.

You are not that attractive. I promise.

You are also not unattractive, from your pics.

Your problems are that you do not live in a hot dating market and you have a crippling fear of talking to potential dates.

I think you should hire a dating coach. Even if you only make half what you claim it'll be money well spent.

Step 1: quit bragging...it is off putting.

Step 2: hire dating coach.

Step 3: listen to dating coach.

It'll work out.

I said hi to her and tried to engage her a bit, she wanted absolutely nothing to do with me. I was being my normal friendly self.


It was particularly disheartening because she was a Latina. Hispanic people always say I'm gorgeous in real life (they all think I'm from Spain or Puerto Rico)

I'm going to try very hard at this online dating stuff. If that doesn't work, I will try to hire a dating coach. The problem with the dating coach thing is that I need someone to help me in person, not online and that's very hard to find


I don't doubt anymore that I'm attractive. I've had sooooo many people recently ranting and raving about how handsome I am with my weight loss. I know I'm not everybody's cup of tea (especially people who don't like Spanish or Middle Eastern features will not want anything to do with me) but lots of people do find me very appealing
