How do sane individuals use plenty of fish?

It's the ghetto. The very layout looks riff-raff

I get the same impression.

Most of the girls in my area look trashy with tattoos and have their kids in the pictures.

If you had a bunch of women messaging you daily, you wouldn't care either.
Pretty much. But I don't get setting up a date with someone whom you really don't want to go out with. But women typically do that more than men bc they want a free meal, want to get out of the house or they crave the attention of the guy. It sucks but it's onto the next one for the OP.

And duck faces on every one of them.

Bathroom mirror pictures. Hey, I have taken a few too, but there's no way in hell, I'm putting that for attracting a prospective date. Geez. Some of the bathrooms are NASTY, and you can literally see bras hanging

Big boobies. I love them, but nice way to exp-ho-se yourself to the rest of the world, with 1000 creeps looking at it and perhaps licking their monitors

You get the general sense of dating in Wal-mart.

She wasn't one of those trashy POF girls. She had a career, no tattoos, nice photos etc.

I guess I'm wondering a) why a woman would do this b) why they cant just call and say "hey, im sorry, i dont think i want to get together anymore" and c) if its something im doing wrong?

Dont try to understand flaky, rude, stupid. You'll never get it bc you're not that way. Chalk it to the game & go about your business.

Stop blaming yourself. She's a flake and you found out before you'd invested any more time or energy. Consider yourself lucky.

That blows...I'm sorry she didn't take you seriously. And I can't answer why women do that. Or men. What I can say is that people can be really inconsiderate and selfish. I've always noticed it in some of the people I've met over the years, but I find it to be WAY more noticable in the last five or so years.

Hang in there...please don't let this ruin your outlook (even if she sucks!!). Just know that there are people (women) who are respectful and courteous...and it really is her loss. I know, I know...that doesn't help now...but chin up.

Because they don't have to. A man is supposed to call and cancel.

If a woman doesn't call or message you back, you are supposed to take that as a "hint." They aren't held up to the same standard.

After they flake out or don't message you again, you are supposed to get over it quickly and be a "real man" and take the rejection.
