You have to be polarizing ,they either love you or ****ing hate you.
You don't want to waste your time going on 4 dates with a girl only to find out you were friend zoned.
If your socially awkward go out with your friends more, step out of your comfort zone.
Tell the girl when you first meet her,be like "actually I don't do this a lot I've been raised in Antarctica by the penguins just got here last week" something like that.
This sets the frame that you're being yourself and you will f*** up later but you don't care. You will getaway with a lot.
How do you get "friend zoned" through on online date? One of the big advantages of online dating is that both of you are clear from the outset that you are on a date. Honestly, being "friend zoned" in a couple cases might not be so bad....I moved to my current city knowing absolutely zero people, and still don't have any close friends here.
You must be going on much different dates than me, because I can't imagine saying something like that. FWIW, most of the girls I date are lawyers and doctors (mostly recent grads, sometimes still in grad or professional school) in the 25-30 range. Those aren't the only girls I message, but those tend to be the ones I get responses from.
I'm not sure I am socially awkward so much as just introverted. My profile actually makes this pretty clear, so as to screen out girls that would dislike that trait. I know a lot of people would suggest not to indicate any thing like this in an online profile....but I don't think it has been any problem. As I mentioned, I get plenty of first dates, almost all from very attractive and professionally successful girls.
