Reply To: Dating seems hard these days

Yeah my dude. Women are judgemental and paranoid of men, but it’s out of necessity.

Women on dating apps are subject to a constant stream of duds. They range from guys whose conversation skills are limited to the word “hey” to unsolicited dick picks to straight up stalkers. Women have to have their guards up out of necessity.

My best advice for a man seeking out women on a dating app is to be patient. When you initiate conversation, do so specifically. You can’t just say “what’s up” and expect that to be enough. Find someone you have a mutual interest with and start a genuine conversation.

An online message of “sup” is the equivalent of hoping to make a connection with a stranger while shopping. Don’t hold your breath.

Don’t be hurt if you don’t get a response immediately. Remember women are likely sifting through dozens of messages on a daily basis.

Don’t take it personally if you don’t get a response at all.
