Did you ask her what her opinion of King Charles the 2nd was

That's a second date question

Make sure you imply heavily the right answer, and let her know you'll be disappointed

I made sure to preface the date with the correct opinions regarding divine right and the accession of Edward the confessor.

The girl I was supposed to meet tonight flaked hard, but she sent her number instead. Either she's a scam in action, or she's very interested in the fake persona that I've carefully crafted via internet interactions

Hell yeah

2180 we can sperg about whether robot womb babies are white.

Been on Bumble a few days. I will say the quality of women seems much higher than OKcupid. Unfortunately you can't pre filter by race like you can on (based?) OKcupid. And I dislike not having agency in Bumbles' "only ladies can message" feature. Waiting on the matriarchy to peruse the meat market.

But on a silver lining, Bumble is less of a time sink than OKcupid was, due to the lack of action options for men.

Unlimited swiping has me hooked

Does Tinder not let you swipe in an unlimited way? OKCupid did.

OKCupid lets you undo a positive swipe, which bumble doesn't

Not if you aren’t paying for it. Which idk about y’all but I’ll pass on

I see. Of course, never pay Silicon Satan.
Bumble's pay feature seems to be kind of "poke" you can give a woman who has mutual liked you but not messaged you yet. Very underwhelming.

I got on bumble yesterday and there are some decent girls on there

I tried okcupid a long time ago but literally every girl was either a single mom or a feminist phd student

@Sherlock Many such cases. (sad!)

Yeah dude it’s really frustrating

@Sherlock I met my wife on ok Cupid. even then it was a sea of degeneracy but as long as you are honest the questionnaire lines you up with people that are actually compatible.

I had okay success on OKCupid for a while but was banned twice for utterly unknown reasons.

Scout's honor

I did mention Julius Evola once. Perhaps that is auto-flagged

Using Evola to woo a gal? One interpersonal communications merit badge for you :🎖

Just on my profile. There is an 8pol gal that took the bait once, but our age difference (20 vs 31) was a bit much for her. She'll never join IE though, too introverted.

Anyone try eHarmony? From people I talk to it seems to be the most serious app for like actual marriageable people

@ThisIsChris the 40$/month fee I am sure creates in increase in quality bit drastic reduction in total numbers

Observation from Bumble. I started to get spike in messages once I added "Height not a typo" on my blurb 😒 😑

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN re: numbers, only need to catch one good one!

@missliterallywhoI just have sympathy for my manlet brothers, as a fellow occupant of the conspicuous ends of the stature bell curve.

@missliterallywho Good point. Perhaps I see into the alternate timelines where I am not 6'9" and much, much more single lol

Most of the girls I’ve dated have been slightly taller than me. 3:1

And yeah woodape, stature solidarity 😂

I tolerate no bullying of short boys.
Because, to me, everyone is short.

Which is a big part of why online dating is cancerous; it enables artificial selective 'shopping' behaviors (on manicured profiles, not necessarily accurate ones,) that are contrary to both genders's interests/success on both a personal (finding a REALISTIC partner,) and societal (spreading diseases, removing natural social barriers) level.

A girl or guy could pass on a lot of otherwise viable candidates for stats like that when if they met and/or learnt eachother in a more organic manner that wouldn't be such a problem as Mrs. Logan says.

My challenge with online dating is that I don’t have good pics of myself. Trying to make a point of getting my pic taken when I’m doing interesting shit

Yeah it's crucial you have a few pictures that aren't selfies.
