Men are wrong here but it still doesn't erase how it feels to guys AND the fact that women tend to be much more selective online because it's still all too easy to click NEXT. I'll let you guess which sites are more populated by men. However, according to What Is the Ratio of Men to Women on Dating Sites? - statistics show that on certain sites women outnumber men and other sites, men outnumber women. Men also believe that men outnumber women through dating sites making it very difficult for their message to get through to her or be seen. We understand women treat our profile with less regard because it's so easy and convenient to click NEXT without even reading through it. You'll find lots of guys build themselves up because online competition is so much greater for guys than it is in real life. He feels like he has to embellish himself to stand out from all the other guys. Second reason he might not show up: Online competition is greater than it "appears to be" for women. Mine is just one example of making it harder to show up for another date, among other reasons of course. Whether a guy experiences something like that or not - you'll find several more reasons why a guy won't even show up for the first date. ![]() This is WHY (just like you feel), there's so much pressure to match up on the first date when you first meet online. Even though my pictures were more than real.Īs if she couldn't tell from my photos?! First reason why a guy won't show up: He doesn't think you're going to find him physically attractive. It felt like she took one look at me and immediately decided - I'm not attracted to this guy. Yes - I did lots of things wrong and going into what I did wrong doesn't apply much to this article so I won't get into it. Which I responded with, "Okay." like the foolish overly nice I was. ![]() Not needless to say when I got home she had already left me a message, It was devastating because it felt like she didn't try at all. (Who knows, maybe she was trying to feed her extended family on my dime.) She didn't even finish her meal yet, of course managed to grab a doggy bag for later. She didn't laugh at any of my jokes like she did online and I'm a pretty funny guy. So we met up at one of my favorite restaurants and at first sight, she looked pretty cool. Didn't make myself out to be something more than I was.Īnd as a guy, I believed that's what women wanted and being me, wanted to her like the real me. years, I finally managed to get a real date out of it. This was exciting because after years of searching, yes. Long ago I planned a date with a woman I met online and it was awful. It's an experience most guys dread going through because of the pressure, being unsure of what's going to happen, not knowing who is really going to show up, and in lots of guys cases - they feel the need to build themselves up because they want you to like them AND agree to meet with them in a public place. (Granted it's not easy for you either but we're talking about dudes here so please wait before you comment your terrible dates below.) Especially if you are clueless on the opposite sex. Messaging a woman on some match site and then meeting up is not exactly the easiest thing. Since the personal side of dating tends to overflow to online, finding a woman through the internet is equally if not even MORE difficult. BUT attracting or understanding women was not my thing. Way back when, and this is going to sound unbelievable so you just have to trust me.
