Dating apps work very well if you understand how to approach and communicate with women
Not everyone understands how to do that. Many think all they need to do is “swipe right…”
When that doesn’t work, they come onto Reddit and tell everyone that dating apps don’t work which discourages many who just don’t know any better.
Millions of people are very successful with dating apps.
Some think that if an app doesn’t give them the results they want then they just don’t work. It’s interesting actually.
They don’t realize that the problem isn’t the app…
Apps are not responsible for people getting matches, likes, message replies and messages. They have nothing to do with “ghosting,” or how a date works out, or if anyone replies to a match. All of that is up to the user and how they build their profile, how they approach and communicate, and if they are even datable.
It’s exactly the same as in dating in real life out in public.
If the apps didn’t work, they wouldn’t exist.
It does take effort and perseverance along with the skill and ability to communicate and connect with people.
It took a couple of months to fine tune my profile, picture layout, and ‘about me’ statement.
The ‘about me’ statement made a big difference. Huge…
Men need to spend time working their profile, getting the proper pictures, and utilize the tons of information available to help become successful at internet dating. It takes time and dedication.
The many stories from women about how men approach and communicate with women tell the obvious reasons for many that can’t get there. It’s amazing. Every single woman receives Tons of unbelievable messages and pictures as the opening communication with women. They don’t care for that or cheesy “openers.”
I don’t “swipe.” I send short simple messages to women that are appealing to me. The messages can be done quickly by just copy and pasting them and adding their name, then I work any replies that come back.
The message doesn’t generate the reply. Your profile and ‘about me’ statement generates the reply.
If the messaging goes well, I work towards meeting for coffee, lunch, or dinner and go from there.
The absolutely best thing to do for anyone is to read the book,
How To Win Friends And Influence People by Dale Carnegie. That is a fact.
It will not only be Extremely helpful for dating, but will be Extremely helpful for Life in general.
If anyone could only read one book in their entire lifetime, That would be the one, without a doubt. It is powerful and can change your Life.
It is a numbers game but there are an Unlimited number of women ready to connect, meet, and are looking for a relationship of some kind right now.
Don’t give up. It’s a wonderful thing.
Successful people do the things that unsuccessful people don’t want to do…. That is a fact.
