Thanks for all the info ya'll.
It was good info.

I actually started chatting with this chic that works near where I live.
She looks beautiful AF!!!!

So we started chatting, and then an hour ago we facetimed.
And holy shytttttttt............ SHE IS FAT AF!!!!!!!!!!
I mean like a rhinoceros.

I'm thinking of taking legal action for false advertisement!!!!

Listen if you fat you fat, it is what it is.
I mean you should lose it but whatever.
But don't have a beautiful profile pic showing only your face but then end up being an elephant!!!!!!!!!!

Only face pics are a dead giveaway.

It's useless. Stick to offline.

I've smashed chicks off there but there's no quality women on dating apps. A lot of those women are attractive yes, but they're on dating apps because they have some kind of issue or problem that prevents them from having success dating offline

Online dating is trash. You're competing at a best case scenario of 3 men to every one woman. Most of them don't know what they want, the rest are there for attention, and a lot of them can't hold a conversation to save their life because they're so used to men doing all the talking and catering to them that they don't know how to be interesting.







You can probably get a few flings out of it but if you're looking for a quality woman who's in it for the long haul, you have to meet them in person.

I would advise you to put effort into meeting women in day to day life. You will pick up a vibe, she has already seen what you look like in person, and you can get a feel of her energy.

BUT

A lot of brehs on here want to meet up right away, but personally, I think you can vet a woman easily by having conversations with her for a week before asking to meet. You notice the way she speaks, her tone, can hear stuff in the background, and that may help you weed out the ratchets. After couple days of messaging, ask for her number, and call her. Sometimes, the messages can be dry, but the voice conversations can be good.

If she asks for money, bush immediately. Don’t stick around to see what else will happen. If she just talks about herself, and doesn’t ask about you, or listen to you, then bush.

Be upfront about what you’re looking for, and your children. I’d stick with women who are in the same age range, and you’ll probably meet a lot of single moms, because you have 3 kids, and honestly, at the mid 30s, more women have children of their own.
Keep in mind a lot of those women don’t look like their photos, so don’t be surprised.

And there is nothing wrong with having cats.

Truth. Text a little bit but try to get on the phone. If the chemistry is good just talking, it'll be great in person (usually) assuming both people look like what's in their pictures.

The phone never lies. Ratchet girls cannot hide it if you talk long enough. Broads always thought I HAD TO BE taller than 5'8" because of my voice. "Naw nikka you sound like you 6'4"....

Different kinds of pics are good. Action photos of you playing ball, throwing darts, on vacation etc. Most dudes just take selfies of themselves in their bathroom dumb shyt. The woman needs to envision that breh has an awesome life and that she would be blessed to be apart of it. Gotta sell that dream.

Honestly I think you should approach women in person in addition to online dating. The latter is truly a numbers game and it may take you months to even find anyone on there.

Women fish for simps with money and get easily plowed by the men with the best genetics at a firesale price of free.99

Fat girls, women on a Hoeatus and chicks with STDs act like wifey to get pregnant.

A sub group of Fat girls, women on a hoeatus and chicks with STDs have a laundry list of demands for her ideal dude and end up getting plowed by men with the best genetics for free.99 while waiting on some moron to give in to her demands. Some men will pretend and ghost her after a traditionao date that involves smashing.



They want

Adventures
Travel
Spontaneity
A comedian
Stimulating conversation.

Good luck.

Meet up asap

Don’t waste your time being a text buddy
Exactly. Simple questions don't work. Gotta shoot like Curry from deep. Recommend getting coffee or some dumb shyt. But you gotta come off witty and show personality off top.

yup all that back and forth is yawn and she probably has like 30-40 other guys she's talking to. Get that number and set something up fast, if she's not down with it next. Last year on hinge some weeks I had like 3-4 meetups because as well soemtimes you meet a chick in real life and she's ugly, or she looks better or you guys click or you dont.

I remember meeting a chick talkign to was cool, when we met up she didn't look like her photos and she kept talking about gender based violence. I never messaged her again but I invested nothing because we met up within 2 days of talking to each other.

Here is my experience from Hinge and Bumble
* Let me preface this by saying I'm a breh that lives in Phoenix AZ...

I started on Bumble
- The access amount of white women on that app was unbearable. But I think you can alter the settings to cater to your likes but after a few days I deleted the app... Just didn't have the patience for it


Now Hinge.. YOU GON EAT!!
- You 100 percent for sure can make the algorithm show you what you like
- Like a few of the posters above me said.. drop about 4 to 5 pics of you out.. not them bathroom pics.. I was getting more women hitting up than me liking them
- ENGAGE them in conversation when they hit you up .. skip past all that boring shyt.. say something to evoke and emotion.. say some funny about a comment they posted on they page..

When they put them questions that they answer in the profile.. respond to those.. I hit it off with a chick that put "convince me that Hov ain't the GOAT" I sparked a light-hearted Convo with her about that and ended up getting the number
- When the Convo is ending.. just hit them with " yo I don't be on here like that.. take my number and hit me when you get a moment.. put it on them..

- like you said.. stay away from them face only joints.. I met one.. she was cute AF but I pulled up on here and she was big but not fat big ...but one White Castle away ( she was a freak tho :wow: )I had to cut her off tho she was way to passive aggressive and also with that Twitter bird babble with the black men/woman topics...

Also.. well for me.. that shyt can be sensory overload.. it was just a constant smorgasbord of women on that app.. I had 6 or 7 conversations going I couldn't even remember who I was talking to half the time

I deleted both.. but Hinge mainly because it was too good of a thing.. I'm well beyond my player/ ho phase.. I don't have the patience to entertain alot of women like I used too

Another thing I noticed... I was talking to some quality women on there and that's what it also let me know.. the games I played in my 20's these women ain't really for it in the 30's.. birds don't wanna just come over and "chill" anymore..

I met this LPN on there.. she was wanting to meet up and said since she was inviting me out she would pay as long as I picked the spot.. picked a lil brunch spot and she was dope... But I knew i was gonna have to put time and energy into her.. it wasn't gonna be just a fucc

That's why I fell back.. these older women ain't really on there to be smashing.. I never used Tinder but I think that's where you go if you moving like that
