I have found internet dating to be one of the most sole destroying tasks in my life. Having come out of a long term relationship and being shy with approaching women in clubs I tried this avenue. I got no contacts from women and the odd reply after sending many more friendly open ended first emails. These occassional replies lead to some back and forth emails before ending in nothing, when you asked to meet they dissappear. Now I class myself as athletic build, average looks and good career. I thought I would have faired better but the lack of ‘attention’ has left me wondering if I actually look like quazzy modo. My skin is becomming thicker though, but is still healing a bit. No wonder prostitution exists.

Its true, if a man is socially inclined to meet women thru mutual friendship @ parties, gatherings, or social clubs ie: gym, church, or even school his chances increase to get a date and possibly laid. Internet may or may not increase those chances unless you already know the person for ex: facebook, myspace etc… online dating is somewhat risky but even more so for the women cause of meeting psychos or weirdos. So in essence online dating is a last resort for ex: if ur new to a location and have no friends or family to introduce u to meeting ppl. thats just my take on it.

Or you can do the wise thing and head to a place like hotel del rey in san jose costa rica for a week, and you’ll get exactly what you want.

You contradicted yourself in that comment.

You said, “Any guy who has “success” with internet dating doesn’t have time to go on hundreds of dates because he’s too busy FUCKING, not dating”

Then you said, “But if you want to get laid, meeting women in-person, NOT online, is the most efficient use of time.”

So internet dating is good for fucking but not dating? So if you get good at online dating, then be prepared to fuck, and not to date?

Internet dating is bullshit.

Hot women can get a relationship or a fuck any time they want from work, school, parties, or mutual friends.

The ones who are online have something WRONG with them that they can’t meet men in person. They’re either frigid, psycho, or socially retarded. They are the LEFTOVERS who can’t get a man or don’t really want a man. They’re exactly the type of women whom you’d dismiss with, “Nice meeting you,” within 30 seconds of approaching them in a bar or bookstore.

Dave M claims to have gone on hundreds of dates. Any guy who has “success” with internet dating doesn’t have time to go on hundreds of dates because he’s too busy FUCKING, not DATING.

The internet can get you plenty of dates if you have a good profile, know a few tactics, and are an otherwise cool guy. Maybe that’s what you want if you don’t have experience dating women. But if you want to get laid, meeting women in-person, NOT online, is the most efficient use of time.

Sure, online is easy to GET dates, but actually DATING them is a huge waste of time.

You realistically only have time for ONE date per night. At most, that’s 7 per week. In a bar, you get 10-12 sets. That’s 24 sets per weekend (72 women total if 3 per set).

Would you rather meet 7 women over 7 days or 72 women over 2 days? Would you rather be able to dimiss ill-suited women within 30 seconds of meeting them or spend an hour on a bad date?
