LT22, I haven't done anything on OKC since being "exclusive" with S2.. in that time I have at least 5 girls who've opened me just on OKC.

Letting them sit for now.

Also have one who messaged me back (I probably messaged her 2 months ago), she's a single mom who I told I wanted to take out sometime but did not see dating someone with a kid a long term option, she messaged me back and respected me being up front etc.

Very decent chance of either just a single lay or fwb thing there.

Rewriting my profile, thanks for the feedback. Sorry if this has been asked before, does Anyone know how many stars rating it takes for some one to like you on okc? Is it they just have to rate you? I guess it doesn't really matter.

4 or 5 star rating is considered a quickmatch

House,

Why would you do that?

Lol, if you want to talk about dating using terms like "optimal" and not wanting to go out with a chick because she had the audacity to bring her friend, you can't in the next breath say it's emotionally immature to not force an awkward conversation on a girl you haven't even sexed or done anything with and are basically awkward acquaintances.

You don't think someone bringing their friend without notifying you is a big deal?

No, she told him beforehand and that's what we were discussing earlier this page.

I probably will once I move for my job. The Young Professionals 21-29 is probably only one I would go to.

Didn't you mention you were late 20s? Aside from the absurdity of doing it. I'd hope you have more going on in your life than to waste time doing such a thing?

On a side note though, best to just ignore them IME. 1 chick messaged me a couple times, liked my photos etc... I decided to be nice and just tell her I wasn't interested, but thanks for the message since she was stalking my profile. 2 weeks later she messages me again as if nothing happened

I don't. My buddy does and I told him it was douchey. He thinks it's fine.

I've gone to some business related meetups. My buddy (different one than above) made fun of me. Then he decided to check out some meetups and has gone to singles/club ones and has banged at least 3 girls from various meetups

I took a leaf out of Bobbo's book this evening and had terrible semi-limp sex with a tinder chick that didn't result in me cumming. I took a leaf out of ATF's book and told her the truth- that I had just banged another chick four times earlier in the evening. Results to come. I think she likes me

Lol weird. Maybe she's mass messaging and just forgot she ever messaged you? She thought you were hot TWICE. Aw yisss

I'm sure it's been addressed in here before but what do you guys do when a girl asks for your last name prior to first meeting? Clearly she wants to google and stalk the **** out of me and my name is unique enough that it'll be pretty easy to accomplish. I'm not necessarily concerned about anything that she'll find but there's a lot of poker stuff on my first page of results and I usually like to build into that stuff once I've spent time with a girl. Not sure how I feel about her finding out all that stuff right out of the gate before we meet and having an idea of my financial situation (even if it's positive).

Just give it to her. Girls are most interested in knowing you aren't a serial killer or someone with a criminal record. You playing poker is the least of their concern.

Not giving it makes you look scary

I obv don't want her friends to come along (unless they look like her), but I don't want her to refuse to meet me either. So what's my play here? I'm horrible at dating and I'm pretty sure if her friends were there I'd be even worse...
Thanks for all the advice on this. I decided to stop talking to her. If I had Jmakin's confidence I'd try meeting her with her friends, but I don't think it's +ev for me yet.

How do people who have a lot of $$ mention that in their profile? For people who have jobs that line up with their income, it's pretty clearly implied, and they don't need to say anything. But my net worth is wayy higher than anyone would expect from my "job" (phd student) -- primarily from poker, which I don't even want to mention in my profile. I don't want people to think that I'm broke/in debt when pretty much the opposite is true.

My current thought is to have a sentence along the lines of "I've been pretty focused on my career so far in life, and am fortunate to have achieved a large degree of financial freedom already." But one of my friends was pretty against that. He suggested mentioning all the "exotic places I've been to" and that they'd get the idea; but that isn't really my style (I don't even like traveling that much).

Interesting. I don't think that has ever happened to me. I agree with Jenni's advice, just give her your last name. Taking the approach of having nothing to hide/being confident will make you irresistible.

I had at least two girls tell me that they Googled me before the date (one was from Hinge, which shows your full name and the other was a friend's friend) and they both said they saw the poker stuff but they didn't seem to care. I wonder if they noticed that it was a long time ago. Also, the WSOP is mentioned in my OKC profile but I made note that it was "many moons ago".

I agree with your friend. I think a lot of girls will think that sounds pretty douchey and wonder what you think you need to compensate for. It reeks of desperation and the opposite of confidence. This is especially true now that women feel more empowered (as they should) than ever before, both in the workplace and in general.

Certainly, it depends on where you live. In the DC area, lots of women have great careers and make a lot of money so they're more likely to think that what you wrote is toolish and foolish.
