martmonkey Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) I met a girl online and arranged for her to go to the bar with me on Saturday at 7pm. She never turned up. I then sent her an e-mail on dating app to ask what happened. She then said she did not want to go out alone and was with friends. Then she sent me her number and to go to another bar 2 miles across the City and then again didn't turn up. One of the Apps I use is Plentyoffish. I'm not having a lot of luck with it and feel it could be my photos and not sure [] Edited January 28, 2019 by a LoveShack.org Moderator Redact link to personal information, move to ISO Link to post Share on other sites
Curiousroxy86 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Nothing wrong with you dude. Don't sweat it. Pof and dating apps like that has a lot of flaky people. All you can do is talk to multiple people genuinely get to know them. Maybe try to screen your dates by having a phone call first and if they seem interested and interesting based on the phone call then ask them out on the call if you like her and see if you have a better experience. Don't ask them out by message. They can say yes easily. Girls who agree to phone calls and seem like you have a great conversation may not be as flaky as girls who agree to see you via texts or online messages. Link to post Share on other sites

Wallysbears Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) Honestly? You are 34 and your profile comes across like that of a 24 year old. [] Not sure what your culture is like there or your dating goals, but I never would have “matched” with you based on that alone.

Mrs._December Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) [] I gotta be honest with you. Most woman in their early to mid-30's aren't looking for a frat guy who parties at least 3 times a week and who travels the world like a vagabond because you likely have very little responsibility at home if you're that free to roam. Yup, your travel schedule posted in your profile gives the impression that you live minimally, work minimally, and spend most of your time seeing the sights in other countries. I'm sorry, that just comes off as looking really irresponsible. The majority of women at this age are probably looking to start settling down because their biological clocks are ticking. They've had a good 10+ years to get their careers going forward and are likely now looking to share their lives with someone and for many, start a family. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure there are women in your age group who would love to travel by backpack and see the world and have no problem with living minimally and partying 3+ a week, but they're probably in the minority. I'm just being brutally honest. Edited January 28, 2019 by a LoveShack.org Moderator Thread cleanup Link to post Share on other sites
Cersei Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 You look too busy to date women. Working so much and your training schedule sends out the message that you won't have much girlfriend time. Take that off of there. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
golden.peach Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) [] As another used said - these apps are full of flaky people, don't worry too much. But if you still wanna use apps, maybe a little change of theme wouldn't hurt you Edited January 28, 2019 by a LoveShack.org Moderator Thread cleanup 2 Link to post Share on other sites
