I do
Thanks for sharing all that! Got some questions for you
1. Boosts: how often do you use them and when? (I felt like 9pm-11pm on Sundays is a good time). How much did you budget per month on it?
2. Do you enable smart photos? Did you use photofeeler or anything similar to determine your best pics?
3. How many of your photos are candid activity photos and how many are like traditional posed pictures? Do you have pics with friends/other girls?
4. What are your thoughts on using shirtless outdoor/activity pics?
Glad to hear you really enjoy your new GF. That said, I want to lend you a word of caution. I read The Tactical Guide to Women a month ago and one thing that the author brought up was that chemistry and values are two different things. Chemistry will allow you to get along with a woman for a solid year but that sharing common values would allow you to go the distance long-term. He gave a pretty good example of a couple he did counseling for in the book (he's a clinical psychologist who focused on couple therapy). Based on what you describe of your new GF, it seems like you have excellent chemistry but your values might be a little different. The author referenced the Schwartz Values process to get an assessment yourmorals.org/schwartz_process.php - take a look at. Also, pick up that book/audiobook. I think you'd find good value in it. Anyway, thanks for sharing all this info and best of luck!

Very accurate.
It used to be you didn't need gold and only plus. You would eventually swipe on all the people who liked you that gold says liked you. This is still possible. Alot of times my likes are always shown to me first before everyone else.
If you buy gold which reveals all of your likes, you won't get that many likes in the future as you initially did.

I'll be honest I travel a ton for work and almost everyone I talk to are fairly receptive and dont care much I dont live near them and only around once or twice a month. I just put it out there and am upfront about it and think most are just happy to get it straight what it is and not beating around the bush.

Sounds like a win/lose situation. Be nice to know who has liked you but I'm sure half or more are women I would have no interest in. Is the decline in likes following really the case or is it that now your aware of it/pool of women are running low? I live in rural areas with small populations near me (40k and lower for my city and surrounding towns)so my options to keep swiping run out fast which also makes me suspicious of the 99+likes.

27 days into a sober/strict macro counting challenge (no cheat meals) and went from 16% BF to about 14%. Top 4 abs showing well on full flex.
Had a lady in the beach parking lot take a pic of me holding my surfboard with my wetsuit half off - came out amazing. Photofeeler results had a score in top 10% where my old ones were top 20%.
That said, I'm not getting a lot of girls to swipe on. It feels like Tinder is holding back on giving me profiles and maybe holding back on showing my profile.

He's a generic looking black guy in a dumb costume in his main pic.
You don't have to be good looking to get girls as a black dude, due to media influence on girls' minds influencing their perception.
Besides that most of the girls he matches are gutter trash who look like they've seen 30 cocks before 25 years old.

met (and stayed with) her grandma and aunt last weekend - she tried talking me into going again this weekend, but i told her 'i had plans/things to take care of'. since then, this past week during her sleeping over twice, said 'i was the ONE for her', 'i'm too attracted to you', and that 'we'd have good looking kids' plus 'not that it could happen (because of BC), but what would i think/do if she got preg'. Friday was 3 months.

so we fkd, took a couple shots, then went out last night to a pretty high end lounge (with one of her gf's coming along). she showed signs she'd appreciate i buy her a drink. the drink was 15 bux, and i didn't feel like breaking a $50 I had so simply asked if she had a buck (I had $14 ready to go). this set her off and she started bringing up how her ex's would buy her ALL of her drinks on a night out. it's then as if she forgot the dinner dates i've paid for, meals i've cooked for her (us), trips planned, time i've given her and how i've been there when she was going through stuff. she was pretty drunk (not sloppy), mind you, at that point, but still, it was as if everything just came to a head right then and there. I was ready to pull the plug because of the uncomfortable position she was putting me in and her disregard for everything i've done, not to mention in how she was all of a sudden expecting me to start footing the bill on any given night, even if it was not my idea to go out in the first place, as it wasn't last night (i didn't even buy myself a drink, as i was planning to drive later in the night). 'it's not about the money, (insert my name)' , she kept saying. blah blah. we then cooled off, kissed and caressed some, and she had to go to the restroom. when she came out, she started it again, taking me to the side, trying to explain where she was coming from. i then told her 'why are you not with your ex's then if they were so perfect in this regard of buying you this and that?' and that 'if she didn't like it, there was the door' (i've not changed anything in the way i've spent money on her since the beginning of our relationship). i then told her 'maybe it is best we take a break' and she started to cry as the music continued to play on in the background, people immersed in each others conversations around us. i then hugged her until she chilled out a bit, giving her the leeway to go hang out with her gf that came along, but had not seen her in her current state. when i then saw her/both of them smiling and soaking in the night from a distance, i rejoined as if nothing had gone on. we then ended up all getting an uber home, I slept over, but not before her saying 'i think i love you'.
fk
for the record, i likely would have been done, last night, had we not already bought our tickets last week to Mexico for the end of the month, and the fact she is graduating next week and had been talking me up to the rest of her fam i've yet to meet. was starting to miss my freedom that much (i was even getting hit on by some chick as i was waiting to use the restroom, so do i really need the bs she brought on??).

Thread is totally dead.
Tinder & Online dating is totally rigged, just make a female profile for yourself and see the calibre of guys around you (if you're in a proper city) and you'll realise the effort is really not worth it, unless you're a 6+ facially with a strong instagram and great photos.
Also, ageing is utterly brutal. If you're chatting to girls even 5 years your junior you're on the backfoot already. Again, you better have some social media presence otherwise they will think you're 'shady'. It's a constant uphill battle with any girl that's above a 5 and it's just not worth it.

I'm literally having to almost beg to get them out - 99% of my matches don't reply. It's over.Last edited by Fortunamera; 04-20-2019 at 06:33 PM.

This is what online dating has reduced me to.
That and I just broke up on 1 year+ gf.
The game is rigged. Even with 'game' I couldn't have won her over. 99% of cases if the girl stops replying I leave it, but I was in town and wanted a lay with a cute girl so threw my ego out the door and chased. Sue me.

Shame this thread is dead, but not surprised.
My profile is so fukked rn. 80% of the time I swipe left because I get obvious bots, ugly ass chicks and some that put 0 effort into their profile (e.g. <2 pics, sh!tty pics or no bio). Also got 2 matches in 3 days. For whatever reason I've just been left to rot in their system. Feels bad

still going, now for 4.5 months. just got back from Mexico. was with her for 16 days down there, right after she graduated, pretty much, 24/7, for 20 straight days, doing everything together. in that time, we got in two little fights/arguments, with things being fine now. she's back visiting her parents in her home state, for the next week+, the longest we will have gone without seeing each other so far.

Make no mistake, tinder is garbage for most men now.
I’ve banged 3 off it in the past month but they were all 2 points lower than me in looks and the hookups felt hollow.
Real life must be where it’s at (I hope) because I can’t deal with having to slay 4/10 girls anymore.
It is so rare to find a girl above a 6 on tinder these days. The majority look like utter chit and compared to the ones you’ll see in real life they just don’t compare. It attracts the worst people (both Male and female to be honest). Most girls on there have taken so many diks you’ll never even stand out.

Quality of women on there is horrendous as well and I only match with extremely ugly girls (below a 4/10, obese etc)
Any tips? Profile below
