What's this supposed to prove, that attractive men get more matches and preferential treatment on dating apps compared to average or below average looking men? Color me shocked!!
The problem is your fugly / average women are getting to sleep with men way out of their leagues. The women then assume this is who they should be locking down in a relationship which will never happen. You end up with ugly / average women with unrealistic expectations and the majority of men being locked out of the dating pool.
I'm single again after 20+ years of marriage, and trying these apps out.
I think that this is the reality.
If you want to meet a decent girl with any type of real morals, you just put on your profile that you are looking for a long-term marriage. I'm not Brad Pitt, but I'm not morbidly obese, either. Just a dude with a great job, great grown daughters, and a bit of a dad bod.
I get plenty of attention from A) divorced women my age with kids that are in college or almost there and a good career. I also get attention from B) women that are about a decade to 15 years younger than me that are looking for kids, and happy to settle down with an older guy like me. I also get a lot of attention from C) 20-year old women pretending to be about a decade older than they are that are just fine and dandy with someone that will take them out for a good time at a really nice place, as long as you are willing to buy expensive food, drinks, and gifts, no strings attached. Finally, I am surprised at how many F) men pretending to be women there are.
I pretty much only respond to A. But, there are a couple of B's that are intriguing.
I feel pretty sorry for the great, authentic girls out there that are fairly attractive, but have, for instance, a strong chin. Terrible market for those ladies.
