Is it because they can be more picky? Guess I'm just looking for some guidance or info or feedback.
In my opinion, people who are very attractive don't need to date online.

It's not necessarily about "needing" to use dating sites. For some, or many, it's about finding better, more compatible matches. I didn't need to use dating sites to get dates, nor did my husband. We simply found more compatible matches online. Used as a tool, it was an incredibly efficient and effective method to narrow down the search for the right type.

I loved longer, more detailed profiles. They often provided enough detail to have interesting and engaging conversations that were far from stilted and awkward. My best matches had longer profiles, and were great conversationalists.

The longer profiles show personality, the short ones provide stats.

Go on a dating site, there are plenty of good looking people.

That was just silly.

True even see a 10 once in awhile. Most of those seem lacking in personality from experience.

There's too many damned if you do's, damned if you don'ts on here.

For some people, online dating isn't acceptable or good enough. Then there's the contingent that thinks cold approaches or asking out someone you meet at the park isn't acceptable, and that you need to "Get to know them" before asking them out. Which is the total opposite from the "Ask them out to get to know them" which is the way I see it. Then there's the "Don't date coworkers" army and their robotic responses. Then there's even a faction of people who somehow believe that internet dating is one of the only acceptable ways of dating and meeting new people, since you don't know if people you meet out are single.

I say all of them are acceptable and perfectly valid avenues to use for dating.

I saw quite a few really handsome men. I went out with some pretty handsome guys, my husband included. And I have a couple stunningly gorgeous friends who use dating sites. I know one is dating a guy she met on Tinder, as well as the last guy she dated. She exclusively dates much older men, and they obviously adore her.
