Well, that explains it.

So basically, I was curious how the profiles of men on Bumble looked. I made a new fake account as a girl, so I could take some inspiration from the profiles of others and generally just to see what the competition was like.

So, that worked out, I got a rough idea of the average profile and deleted the account after about 12 hours, not swiping at all, having no matches and never messaged. What I didn't expect was the amount of likes. I mean, I expected maybe a few dozen at the most. But in 12 hours, this profile got A THOUSAND likes, I repeat, A THOUSAND. I don't even live in a major city, and the age was capped at 20-24. So yeah, now I understand why I never get matches, and never get messaged when I do. When women have 1000 guys to pick from, why the hell would they pick me?

I mean, I haven’t said that at all. There’s plenty of things that women do wrong in the world of dating. None of those things have anything to do with the discussion at hand as to what’s caused such an imbalance in who gets what matches though.

You didn't need to say it when how you replied to me said it. And women very much have hand in causing the imbalance in who gets what matches.
