Friend of mine hyped up OKCupid for me last weekend. She said she got better matches on it than the standard Tinder and Bumble. I tried telling her dating apps are different for girls than guys but she insisted I used it.

So I downloaded it, answered a whole bunch of questions. Despite having a bunch of "likes" on it that I can't see unless I pay and running out of available swipes each day not a single match to be had

But it's so much better apparently

Ok Cupid was great up until about 4 months ago when they gave it a total overhaul and removed all of the functionality that made it unique and better than other dating apps/sites. Now they've stripped away all of the functionality it's become a dumpster fire of a site to use and everyone has abandoned it in droves. So she was right in recommending it, but wrong in that it's no longer the site it once was.
 
I am really worries about how dating will turn into in the next couple of years, my last 3 dates were terrible

  • Had an escape room booked in with a girl, she cancels last minute the guy from the room tries to stick me with the bill. She just vanishes of the face of the earth. Check facebook oh look she is in a relationship
  • Second girl organised to go watch a movie, she is too broke, her place and watch a movie sure fine, then oh i can't pay for netflix/wifi too broke, would you sub to my onlyfans to help
  • Third girl, went to dinner shouted her she said she would get the next one, said it was a great day she enjoyed herself etc. Then few hours later nah i didn't feel a spark you can pay for my dinner if you want to try again

Dear me mate that’s some horrors

Internet game is impossible mate, I’ve learnt to not bother and if something comes something comes

No point torturing yourself with the scum that infiltrates those dating sites

Don't do anything other than drinks or coffee for the first two dates would be the best advice I could give.

Coffee, ice-cream or sushi. Majority of chicks are atleast into one of these things and they're inexpensive.

It's hard in country Victoria to find girls

Yep, definitely the go or simply going for a walk
Yup 100%

Wouldn’t be taking a chick off hinge or tinder out for dinner, drinks after 2-3 dates IMO

Not worth it
We had gone for a walk first date but yeah definetly go for more walks haha

Not everyone is like that though.
Can confirm, last few first date dinners I have been on the girl has always wanted to split the bill or tried to pay the 2nd date if there was one

Obviously they see you as a bit of a doormat so I'd recommend taking some notes from Jon Patton and be more alpha on the dating apps. I hear he goes alright on Tinder

I think that's the problem you try to be different from the rest and get used like the rest

Sounds like they’re just shitty people if they’re obviously letting you pay for dinner when they know they won’t see you again.

As before, keep it pretty low key to start and after a couple of dates you can commit to dinner. Or sometimes meeting up for a drink can organically become dinner if things go well.

Generally if you’re 25ish and above the good ones will at least offer to split the bill with you.

Im 28, she was 26 on centrelink haha

I think should also look for girls with jobs all 3 didn't have jobs
 
Jobs are definitely what you’re after in a woman in your mid-late 20s!
I still can't believe I met a girl on tinder and went with her to the GC for a weekend haha

I wish I could find one who was happy with a walk, I'd prefer to start that way and move on from there. Last match I had that I suggested a walk to wasn't interested, still haven't met them!

It's damn frustrating stuff though, I'm pretty shy, it's why I like Bumble where they message first. At least separates those who just swipe and those actually wanting to talk.
