I Went From 25%-50% To 1%-2% Hit Rate On Tinder.

I truly wish it were that simple. I am fully aware the lack of hair prevents me from getting a smiliar amount as the guys I mentioned - but we are talking likes here, not matches. I'm a person who cannot stress the importance of looks enough. It's virtually everything. But I'd still find enough deficiencies that'd leave me wanting with girls I desire. Having said that, I mentioned an example lately where things were going well with a 7-8 (in my view) until she saw a pic without cover for the head. ;) Thing still is: a hair transplant could not get me where I'd really like to be hair-wise. and: I'd do it for others, not for myself, as I do not think I looked significantly better with hair. I was still more or less average, i.e. I already needed luck for a pretty girl to like me.
Yes, after our conversation over pm I would have to say you have exceptionally high standards.

Might sound like a weird suggestion but have you considered therapy?

It seems you cant handle physical flaws in the opposite sex and I think this will lead to long term unhappiness for you.

It's not that weird, I suppose, but there have been girls I'd have liked, and they weren't flawless.

Where do you think the super high standards came from?

I hear a lot of p**rn use can give us high expectations.

I am not even sure they are that high. High for sure, especially in relation to my own looks, but the bigger problem is maybe that they are also quite specific. Has always been the case though and p**rn hasn‘t helped the situation I‘m sure.

I restarted my Tinder about 2 weeks ago; I literally had 50 matches within the first couple of days. Now it has slowed down and I get a match a day if that.

I think you're looking for a top 5% woman and I think its unrealistic in your current situation.

I'm not sure if theres anything you can do either because attraction isn't something you can force.

what I am interested in is how many women you actually got laid with,.

Again, time after time we talk about sh*t that doesn't matter. Which is why I have respect for people like @WhitePolarBear, and @Afro_Vacancy because they never talks about messaging as a whole, and someone liking him through a swipe. They gives us insight on actuall dates they have went on, and women they have fucked. WHICH IS ALL THAT MATTERS.

Why do you people mentally masterbate over sh*t that doesn't matter is beyond me.



Post real progress, not someone liking your facebook photo.

Not sure about either, given you rated one woman I find desirable a 5, which shows that it‘s also about taste, not just standards.
Speaking of genuine attraction: why would a girl from „my league“ or below be more likely to feel genuinely attracted to me, i.e. not just feel more inclined to „give me a chance“, look deeper etc. just because I may be the best she can get. I might as well hope to be a girl‘s type that meets my taste - it‘s just as unlikely, but I do not believe that there is less need to force attraction with not so attractive girls, they may just have and show more interest.

I'm not even sure about the science of looksmatching.

But I've spoken to looksmatched ugly couples who both say they are attracted to each other.

It would be extremely rare for an 8 out of 10 woman to find a man who is say around 5 on the looks scale as sexually attractive.

But anomalies do happen.

What I do agree on with you is that average people shouldn‘t complain about the opposite gender and a lack of action, if they are even more selective a/o have a more specific taste than better looking people. I admire people who never even compare themselves to Chads and their options, because this is something I do when in fact it‘s futile.

A lot of the casual likes are due to errors. Myself even, I sometimes swipe very quickly, because it's so boring honestly. I don't have 100% efficiency, I sometimes swipe the wrong way and know so immediately, and sometimes I end up seeing somebody after I match and think "huh?" Women might also have Tinder Smart Photos on, in which case I might swipe right on a photo, but then recoil when I see the other photos or the profile after matching.

Undoubtedly, the same happens at the other end.

Don't worry guys,more than half of the dating sites on the web are scams! and most of the women with pics are really men!
