Most profiles are starting to sound the same or similar. "I love to laugh, love new adventures, "Life's too short to sweat the small stuff" or the ever popular, "If you won't accept me at my worst, then you don't deserve me at my best!"
They starting to sound more cliche'd
Then there's the, "Ask me" in their descriptions...or "Will fill this in later" lol
I've even seen some say, "No one reads these things anyway, if you like what you see, contact me"
And I have to say, they have some pretty good photos of themselves.
Do you write those women? I don't. If its a cliche boring half zz'd profile, its coming from a boring cliche person. No thank you.
From what I've heard, OkCupid is dead now. Good riddance.
Where did you get this information?

Tinder and Bumble is where most of the activity is. I think Match is primarily used by people age 50+ at this point. I still see ads for Match and eHarmony on TV.
I've seen my share of the 30+ crowd on there. Not sure where you got the idea that it's only 50+
Well, a densely populated area with such a diverse culture probably helps. New Yorkers tend to be more outgoing, real, and are likely more sociable.
Where I live, it's a vapid community of shallow types. It's like, if you're not 6 feet tall (even though they are 5'1") it's a deal breaker (just using height as an example).
That's great that's that happened with them, but they are likely in the minority. I attend Meetup events, and I've spoken to some men there that would discuss their online experiences...it's always the same story, get to emailing back and forth and they go *poof* when they get asked to meet up.
Believe me that's the furthest they DO get if they DO get a response.
well if they disappear after asking to meet up or talk on the phone they are not real or it was who created a fake profile.
To talk to them. I don't know if I'm interested in meeting a woman until we've interacted. Why would I be?
Well once you feel that way unmatch them
