I have been browsing okcupid the last few days, and it's been entertaining. More so than tinder because there are full profiles to read.

Do they talk about online dating in college psychology classes? If not, they should.


From my perspective as a 6'2" man, women can be so self-defeating it's hilarious.

These women weed out many quality men based on height, and the funny thing is, most of these women are a short 5'2" or shorter.

Girl, you 5'2. the hell you doing with your 6' height requirement?
With 4" heels, you should be good with a man who is 5'8.

I'm sure there are many 6'+ men out there who weed out shorter women.
So in this case, the short women are demanding tall guys who don't want them because of their shortness. Their paths never cross.



It's also entertaining finding easter eggs on okc.

I have found a famous hardcore pornstar.

Kim Kardashian's best friend/entourage member is also on okc, in calabasas, and I feel sorry for her because keeping up with that famous lifestyle gives her no time to find a man, and most men probably wouldn't want to be associated with that lifestyle for the long haul.


Anything you all find entertaining?

A friend of mine forwards me the dick pics and salacious messages she gets from guys, and we have a good laugh. I don't know who responds to that stuff, it's woefully pathetic. She has an intelligent, well-written profile, but evidently some dudes will try to stick it wherever it will fit.

It sure is entertaining when you see women who look like Quasimodo talking about their "preference".

Most women are only on there to get self esteem boost. As a result, very few will answer to your message. As a guy, you will have to message at least 50 women to get a couple of responses. It would be a full time job to tailor each message accordingly.

OK, but 1) that doesn't mean a dick pic is in order, and 2) the salacious messages are usually a couple paragraphs of what they intend to do to her (before even saying hello!). "Hi how are u" messages are deleted. Pics of their junk and wannabe Penthouse letters are laughed at--by us, but not to them. She doesn't reply to them.

Her handle is a reference to an 80s band, and music is one of her big loves. A guy sent her a message the other day with a simple, "You like [that band] too? Awesome!" That's too much trouble for some, I get it.

I think it more probable that you found one of many fake profiles that use pirated pictures

I also occasionally browse okcupid. What I have noticed is that many women are just looking for "friends"... whats the deal with that? Why be on a dating site looking for "friends"?

It definitely has entertaining moments, but I also enjoyed my time on there and had a pretty good experience overall.

I don't think so.

It was bree olson.
She posted personal pics you wouldn't find anywhere else online. Her bike riding, with her friends. selfie in a dress. No sexy pics at all.

That's the standard phrase to not sound desperate or slutty.

Online dating is a numbers game. If you are feeling up to it, message 100 women or so women at a time. A simple "Hi, how are you?" will suffice. If they have a name on their profile, you can add their name to "show" you "read" their profile. At the end of the day, if your thumbnail pic is less than stellar, they aren't answering. Why waste any more time than that?

No one gives a **** what you write or custom messages. All that matters is your picture. If she finds your picture attractive, she will look at YOUR profile before responding. If your profile checks out, you're in.
