Matches have pretty much died ²

[BlackScorpio91]

if you have a good physique... beach photos yes, gym photos no.
OLD is a clown world bro, you have to show off everything you have but it has to be like covert or natural. No selfies, no selfies at the gym.
It's like it only counts if someone else took the pic in a natural scenario, otherwise it's creepy lol

Quit whining and just do it.

Setting my Tinder/Bumble up tonight what are you dudes using to show off your physique, beach photo, gym photo etc?

I don't mind going a little younger, but the fact is, I do prefer guys around my age when they're fit. I like having things in common like the stuff we grew up with. Yeah, the sex thing does worry me when it comes to guys my age or older. It would suck pretty bad to be with someone who has a low drive or ED issues. :/

If I end up getting on Hinge in a month or so, I'll prob set my age range from 45-55. The problem with going down to 40 is if they're single and never been married they may still want kids.

Being 44 myself, finding any woman thats 40+ on these apps that takes care of her body is dam near impossible. Maybe its my location, i dunno.

I did change my filter age down to 32 and most of them are still interested in having kids, which i definitely dont want.

wow just got blocked by a girl for getting a little playful.

She said she likes avocados, and I made a joke about having them on our first date. Then:

Her: "Avocados sounds nice I would be down for more than just avocados tho hahahahaha"
I read an implication, said something like this: "How about off my body ... or toast - your call, tough choice"
Her: "I don't know your body, depends."

BLOCKED

Not a great line, but thought I was just being playful, huh?

F that noise, who wants to be around with someone you cant joke around with.

I got blocked a few weeks back because i told this lady that i dont get into politics. lol

I have a group hiking photo that i always get likes or comments on.

I really thought it was the least flattering of all my pics, you never know.

[sloppyjoe1]

Why do you guys torture yourselves on dating apps? I spent a few months on there after my cousins talked me into it but I found nothing that remotely resembles any kind of value on there.

That women who blocked you sounds like a drama queen.

Who wants to talk about politics all the time and then cause a whole bunch of drama?

[Legz422]

Ye was like 80% sure it was sexual. Guess it was the 20%, but even so... to block me? One of her pics was a bit slutty too so it wasn’t like she was very conservative.

Women eh.. make zero sense.

Yeah, if she's got slooty pics up then blocking you for that was way over the top.

If she says stuff like that and expects a normal red-blooded man not to respond with something sexual, she is fukking retarded.

lol Spot on.

ED issues can be prevalent for men in their late 40s to 50+. Hopefully they don't have blood pressure issues and can take Viagra lol.

She's probably a feminist who wants to be slooty but then gets a playful response and feels like she's being mistreated. Sigh.

I don't want to be with someone who has to take Viagra. Ugh.

Legz a woman doesn't need to get professional pictures, why would she?

All of you like to use filters anyway to make yourself more attractive than you really are so there's that.

For us guys? I'll say alot of us do need them to make us stand out from all the losers so anyone knocking professional pictures are usually people who do bad online.

Don't knock it til you try it.

I never use filtered pics when online dating.

Try being 10 years older and finding someone your age who is fit and not a total potato. It's bleak out there.

Also lol at her blocking you for that. I don't want to talk about politics. I wouldn't give one F if someone blocked me because of that.

you're 51 years old and have this mentality? brutal
Slightly biased because I'm mid 20s and deal with those issues

I have a healthy sex drive. I don't need any artificial means to have sex so I really don't want to be with someone who does. Why do you need medication if you're only in your 20's?

[skinnyfat88]

I don't want to be with someone who has to take Viagra. Ugh.

Not every man who takes it uses/needs it in the same context.

Maybe a guy can still perform 90% of the time at 75-90% but has some kicking around for the times he wants to make sure he's at 110%. That such a bad scenario?

I'd prefer no drugs to have sex. Not really interested in someone jack hammering me for hours on end. I'd rather normal length sex then some more after a refractory period. lol

Lol if you think a dusty 51 year old vag is "normal".

Lol if you think a dusty 51 year old vag is "normal".

What do you think you're going to be fukking in your 50s and 60s? I know the general attitude of the Misc is that everyone will gracefully age into multi-millionaire silver foxes who spend their twilight years banging 20 year old dime pieces on their yachts but that's not a realistic scenario.

If I'm in my 40s and 50s, I'll just exclusively be going after younger women and no I know I won't become a multi-millionaire but I'm a decent looking guy who's in relatively good shape and still improving fitness and health wise so I'm pretty sure I can pull it off when I get older and plus I've known of older dudes who don't have money and status but are good looking guys in good shape and have a mouthpiece that are able to pull women at least 10 years younger.


But I don't see the typical (as in out of shape) 40-50 something year old man or woman pulling a man or woman in their 20s. Alot of them can't even pull men and women their own age.

drive ≠ bonrar quality in guys.
I don't know what caused my issues personally. My theory is that being a fat kid growing up caused damage to my blood vessels or something. Obesity is a health problem that is drastically downplayed in our society, imo. i know some guys have those kinds of issues after riding the tour de france, but that's another story

Have you ever looked into trying to fix the problem? Besides using meds?

I might actually make those conditions in my 40's the way things are trending. 50's or 60's though... ehhh. Either way I don't want to.

The dynamic was definitely a little weird even with the 12 year gap. But as a woman gets to ~30 y/o I suspect the age gap matters less.

Turns out professional photos cost a few hundred. Something I don’t have the luxury to afford right now. Finding it pretty difficult saying to friends “hey let’s do something today but also take pictures of me” without them calling me a **** lol.

Professional photos is something I am going to do eventually though as I believe it’ll be good for linkedin and my own company’s internal portfolio and resume. Everyone has photos of themselves on there so I think I should probably have some taken of myself aswell.

Just tell your friends you need pics for online dating. Pretty much everyone has been on online dating apps at some point so they should be cool with it.

I don't have pro photos btw, my friend had an SLR and we both just took pics of each other with it for online profile. The other one was just an SLR shot on a random hike.

It isn't difficult at all with a decent SLR and lighting. Get the sunlight in your face, reasonable backdrop, smile, profile, and take a bunch of photos.

Same thing I'm dating now. 25-40. Sorry but you don't need a yacht to land a 30yo sloot single mom. A house, late model car, and a 25ft cuddy cabin work just fine. 50yo women have close to zero SMV and any 50 old man who isn't an idiot can do better.

Even if your friends call you a **** for it, if they're bros they should still be down to help out if you tell them what its for.
Other than that craigslist and ******** are pretty good spots if you are looking for some pro or pro-looking shots by amateurs or young photogs trying to make a name for themselves.

You honestly don’t even need an SLR. 20$ Tripod and a 20$ lens kit for your phone. Pair those two with decent light then it should be fine. Ofc it’ll only work fine if someone has a decent phone lol

My main profile pic is an iphone pic. The SLR ones are below.

So no, you don't need an SLR pic, but the quality difference is very obvious. IDK how to compare SLR vs. tripod + lens kit though, so maybe you're right.

Do you have any problems fapping? If no, then the issue is completely mental. You can get your test levels checked just in case.

Friends call each other ****s anyways.

I once had a friend take pictures of me hitting the bag shirtless just so I could put them on Tinder. Sure, he gave me chit for awhile and called me a *******, but if getting called a ******* gets my dink sucked (by a woman), I'm down with being called a *******. You can't be too self-conscious if you want to get laid/have success in dating.
