Every man can meet women for dates and "fun" if he's aiming for women in his ballpark. If I'm an "average" man, I'm going to mostly focus on "slightly below average" to "slightly above average." In other words, a guy that's a 5, should be talking to women that are 3's through 6's. Obviously there's nothing wrong with shooting messages to some hotties just to see what happens, but most guys aren't realistic about what they can attract.
If you're focused on slim and athletic-type women under age 30, good luck. Widen your horizon and talk to a broader range of women.
I don't think you should ever go out with someone you have ZERO attraction to. I'm attracted to a lot of different types of women, so it was easy for me. If your taste in women is more narrow and specific, it's going to be harder no matter what.
If you are not very attractive and have a good paying job, most women wouldn't even bother with you. It seems like a waste of time and money for most guys since women can be extremely selective.
Even in real life, women want guys that looks like Justin Timberlake and has a six figure income. If not, you're not getting any dates.

Whether men are realistic or not is really a moot point, since men are typically indiscriminate in the first place.
Almost all women get matches. Above average women get tons.. Every bit as many as the hottest women.
In men this effect is far more pronounced. While your average guy might have 5 or 10 in his queue, there's a lot of average/above average women holding out for the kind of "perfect" guy who has 10,000 matches in his queue, and won't "settle" for less.
That said, age tends to bring women back to reality.

I agree with this statement and at that age the successful men that women are looking for are not available because those men are dating the hot daughter. Why have something past their expiration date when successful men can get the hotter, younger version?
Men age like fine wine while women age like curdled milk, that being said, if watching My 600lb Life has taught me anything its that SOME men will take anything that comes their way.

Do you really see people as having an expiration date, assuming something refers to a woman? Even if you have a point worth making, there might have been a way to make it less disparagingly.

If getting messages by older men online taught me anything, a lot of men think they age into fine wine when the truth is they aged into vinegar. Like fine wine, men who age well are out there, but are the exception, not the norm. Everybody ages and most people look better when they were younger. And I would say there are some women who age from milk to fine cheese as well, but again, not the norm.

Every man wants to believe he's aged like Sean Connery. It's usually not true.

You are speaking truth! More than a few times I have had to tell my male friends that are my age and older that they are not as good looking as they think. Many of them really out kicked their coverage with their ex wives, and think that all hot women would find them attractive.
Guess this thread might as well become a sticky since people throughout time and space have pondered this question countless times. Even though I have gotten a number of good dates via online, I nevertheless gave up on the idea that those dates would ever lead to anything serious. Its somehow always a mismatch, either on my side or theirs. Or so it seems on the surface. I could never could get past that "first date" thing either because I didnt want to or just couldnt.
As such, I gave up looking. Let it find me instead.
