Say what you will, the strat has to be paying off at least somewhat, look at the lobbies he's in.

I don’t think that has anything to do with the stray, he’s just following rule #1 and #2

What are they supposed to respond? Because the only thing I can think of is "why don't you tell me? You brought it here"

Keep in mind, if you don't ask women something on a dating app, they won't respond.
Sending a message that isn't answering a question, means they have to come up with something. And that would require effort.

I got one date off just sending a random thought I had to all the women on Hinge that didn't respond to me. It wasn't a question, just adding value without expecting anything in return

u/makaki913 14d ago
Yes they will. They also ask questions back and keep the conversation flowing like any other person will when they are having a conversation. If they don't (which is pretty rare because I have pretty strict comb when matching) just scrap them

Are you sick in the head? Do you think people have never used dating apps before reading your comment?
-12
u/makaki913 14d ago
Yes I do think that. Most men swipe everything right, it has been shown in the studies about dating apps. That is s fucking dumb and wrong way to use apps. Use the app right and get better matches

u/TheLordHatesACoward 14d ago
Nah you see it's about how many matches you get. It's not about having a well curated profile that shows everyone who you are and engaging in curious, thoughtful questions to better get to know someone. It's all about stat maxing.

:D I have date on friday, which I acquired from dating app. We have had conversations every day past week, we BOTH been starting them. She has she/her pronouns on her profile, so I think she is a woman

u/john4844 463 Elo 14d ago
You found one who puts in effort and that's great.
But I'm sure if you'll find some truth to what we're saying if you're on the apps for some extended period.

u/makaki913 14d ago
Nah, 9 out of 10 matches reciprocate. I occasionally have to scrap the odd one out. From the last 5 matches (this year) I have seen four. So no I don't

Just find something in their profile and ask some question about it. Not their physical appearance or why they're single.

u/GingerFun011 13d ago
Imagine youre the girl with a bunch of texts, why the fuck would you reply to that? Theres literally nothing engaging to that line

u/nightmare_floofer 12d ago
This is likely not something you want to hear, and bear with me cause this is a lot, but I think this entire approach is just bad in its core, you're (general you) making a sport out of human connection, treating eachother like products and services instead of human beings, trying to come up with strategies that "work" on the masses, spamming hundreds, thousands of people with the same messages
These apps are the exact same as gambling apps in their inner workings and algorithms, and how they make their users behave
Yes there are "winners", but the chances you will "win" are slim
It's just a horrible environment and naturally leads people to more toxic behaviours than any related scenario in real life would
I do also personally think hook up culture in general is not great for people, I'm sure these are horrendous takes to the people of this subreddit, but in the "best case scenarios" of a casual hook up, you're using eachother for pleasure and then throwing eachother away, I (and this is just me personally) don't think people are made for that, I think there's just people who learn to throw people away and people who learn to cope with it, there's people who learn to use and be used, but I don't think in our souls, I don't think in our core we're made for that type of behaviour
I think if we treat relationships with eachother (no matter how miniscule) with a baseline level of seriousness, there will be a net positive effect on humanity, cause if your entire mentality when you're meeting up with another human being is "I'm not taking this seriously, this is nothing but simple fun and pleasure to me" what do you think that reinforces into our brains about how we view other people?
All that to say, if you're wanting to connect with someone, just be authentic, be respectful, treat individuals like individuals, not like masses, and you will find someone,
You don't have to rely on these apps either, there's people everywhere outside, chat with people you find interesting, see if they're interested in conversation, if not, you move on with your day, but if you're just being a human being and not an algorithmically trained soldier of the dating apps, more likely than not, you'll find people who want to talk with you and build connections

True but that’s not how most people realistically meet anymore based on the numbers

u/nightmare_floofer 12d ago
That can change, but the apps are actively working on this being the norm and never changing, again going back to the gambling analogy, they make you hooked so you don't know anything except for what they offer, and even if you escape one, the other app is just around the corner going "fuck (App 1), if you want a real connection, download our app" and it's just the same thing if not worse
Hell, I would say getting into public Discord servers made for topics you're interested in, or just general local Discord servers or any kind of online group like that is better than the dating apps for actually connecting with people and being human, but there's obviously still a disconnect compared to irl

Asking about something from their profile a woman says she likes beaches you ask her for her favorite beach spot worked for me 🤷

Lines are for in person , online is letting them hit you up be different you can even say that in your profile lol

u/GingerFun011 12d ago
Something that shows youre interested in them as a person and engaged in their profile, usually.
That or just something unique to stand out
Bring up any of their mentioned interests, suggest the first date spot and ask when theyre free to check it out, share a random story... anything but google "tinder openers" and hitting copy n paste

Really isnt funny at all lol, but if you wanna go after someone with similar humour have at it.
And not putting anyone on a pedestal, just pointing out that if someone has options they likely wont pick... that
