2bittz Posted Monday at 07:54 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:54 PM (edited) If a girl from a dating app agrees to go on a date but also mentions she's chatting with other guys on the app, is that a sign that she's not interested or is she just being upfront? I obviously realize women talk to multiple guys at once and go on dates with multiple guys at once but I'm wondering what it means if they bring it up during convo? we would tease each other and then at one point during the convo when I flirted with her she brought this up. yet she would still send me heart eyes and kissy emojis and told me she was cute. at the end of the date she said she didn't feel chemistry. was she just looking for attention? her flirting was done through text before the date and not really on the date Edited Monday at 08:07 PM by 2bittz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smackie9 Posted Monday at 08:50 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:50 PM She's keeping her options open. Not everyone dates one person at a time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
basil67 Posted Monday at 09:08 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:08 PM She was being upfront. With the date, she was hoping that the flirting would translate to real life chemistry, but sadly, it did not. At least she didn't string you along 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I always wonder what I'm doing wrong in person..unless I'm just not as attractive as my photos idk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I was just caught off guard since it was the first time a woman actually explicitly stated it. One of my female friends had me believe it was a sign of disinterest and said that telling that to a guy could ruin her chances. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You are right, it's like she's putting up a bit of barrier by telling you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gaeta Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago (edited) 21 hours ago, 2bittz said: her flirting was done through text before the date and not really on the date What is said online before a meeting is worth nothing. The real test is when meeting face to face. Don't ever give importance to compliments given before a meeting. She did not feel a connection, if she had she would have never mentioned chatting with other men. Men we meet don't need to know that, women get like 100 messages a day (I barely exaggerate) on these apps so of course we exchange with several people at first. It's not something to brag about. I agree she said that to express you're just one of the guys. If my bf had asked me that question on our first meeting I would have answered: no one as interesting as you! to make sure he knows I had a high interest in him.

Is it possible she told the other guys that she was chatting with other guys as well? Or did she do all of this for attention. I get confused each time. maybe these women are too hot for me and I'm too average looking idk Edited 3 hours ago by 2bittz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Finding somebody attractive online is the lowest of all possible attraction forms. More can grow out of a drunken attraction to a total stranger in a bar than from online banter. In most cases, online attraction means nothing. It’s just a stepping stone towards the real test, which is dating in person. She went on a date with you, felt there was no chemistry, and honestly told you so. You have nothing to complain about. These things happen all the time. In the future, please lower your expectation. Never get excited and overthink things from kissy faces or whatever else happens before you go on your first date. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s not the first time I read something like this on the forum. It used to puzzle me a lot because this never happened to me or any of my close friends. Whenever I was attracted to a woman, she was attracted to me as well. I couldn’t actually imagine attraction not being mutual, it felt like an oxymoron to me. Now I realize that the problem is with your definition of attraction and the way you let it happen to you. I don’t think you’re really attracted to that girl, for example. You’re just superficially finding her cute or sexy or whatever. You get excited from that idea and build it up in your mind before any real attraction, any actual chemistry occurs between you two. And then, when this chemistry doesn’t happen, you get disappointed. This never happened to me because I never allowed myself to feel anything real before I knew it was mutual. Sure, I might have found a lot of women superficially physically attractive, so what? It doesn’t mean that I would’ve liked to date them. I would never want to date a girl who wasn’t attracted to me, this is is such an automatic turn-off for me that any budding interest in her would wane instantly whenever that would happen. You need to develop confidence and self-esteem. Don’t get all excited from some pretty picture of a cute sexy girl. There are hundreds of millions of them in the world and most of them would not want to date you. This is completely normal and nothing to worry about. Don’t throw yourself at every pretty girl you meet, learn to recognize “your” girls, those who actually like the type of guy you are and are looking for those specific things that you have to offer.

Is drunken attraction ever real at least? Because I've had a lot of drunk girls kiss me. And I'm more concerned with the fact that she felt the need to tell me she was chatting with other guys. If that meant she was never interested why did she go on the date? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I assume being 5 foot 8 and slim(almost towards the skinny side right now) is my issue. I'm not saying I necessarily just go for supermodels but I can't tell if my standards are too high. I can't help who I am and am not attracted to. And you're right somewhat.. I'm very fixated on looks. But I also liked that she was an artist, good with kids etc. Edited 7 minutes ago by 2bittz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
