Don't apologize, you're right about his history (at least on here).

Gaddy is not just being picky, he's being unrealistic.

He needs to broaden his purview slightly, instead of making excuses why he has the views he has.

I say this in the spirit of helping, not meanness.

Uck....Imo no one cares about a 6k chair and 5k watch unless they are interested in your money, not you. Successful women probably don't give a rats ass about your money cause they have their own.
Just uck....you gotta bring something else to the table. Your post came off as insecure and douchy.

Pun intended?

Lol, completely missed it.

Btw, that is a very nice Latina, doesn't look like daddy issues or stabby at all.

Good luck.

LOL. Unfortunately I had to cancel the date with that girl. We were supposed to meet at 4, but she wanted to push it back and I already had a 7pm date with a 22 year old girl. Speaking of the 22 yo girl, we were supposed to meet at 7, it’s 7:30 and I’m still waiting in the park. She told me she was “really close” 20 minutes ago.

This....x1000

Ugh, give her ten minutes, max.

Are you kidding? If she shows up at 7:45 then I’ll consider that 15 minutes early according to CST (Colombiana Standard Time).

Only reason I showed up on time myself is bc the people (read: hooker) watching in Parque Lleras isn’t bad.

Need pics of 22yr old to check if worth continuance.

I'm an on time sort of person but if I was in a similar situation to yourself Fossil I'd probably just start arriving 15 minutes late to dates. Just adjust to the culture you're in imo.

Nice edit lol.

Haha yes I try to meet in interesting places so even if they’re inevitably late I don’t mind.

I met an Argentine girl yesterday and she was a minute early, so that was refreshing.

Fossils post was quite good

I get what you're saying, but there was context to that post as a response to someone saying maybe I'm not coming off as successful enough in my photos/profile. And I was saying I think a pic in an expensive chair, with an expensive watch and a highrise view in the background comes off as successful, and that I have been getting likes from successful women on Hinge. I never talk about money in person. My girlfriend of 5 years didn't know how much money I have or make. All she knew is that I didn't seem concerned with money, didn't think twice about spending thousands of dollars on things I didn't need -- chairs, clocks, watches and paintings -- and that my step-father had 30 cars.

I thought the highrise thing was funny. I can take a little ribbing and I get it, I've written the word highrise a lot here. I actually do not have highrise written in any of my profiles, not even the long OKC one. I let the pics with the view in the background speak for themselves.

I'm not worried about the online/app dating yet, but I am considering adjustments. Particularly on Bumble, where I haven't even gotten a like in four days. I do have a date tomorrow. It has been less than a month since I've gotten back into it. When I met my ex, it took two months and she was only the sixth woman I met (using only OKC).

She finally showed up at 7:55 and we spent a bit over 2 hours together. She was so freakin' adorable, really petite and a cute face, but pretty quite and reserved. I had to drive the convo (in Spanish) and she wouldn't really open up about anything, and also spoke softly which made it difficult to hear her. I tried making out with her twice, but she wouldn't go beyond a couple quick pecks.

The funny thing is that at the end of the date I walked her back to the metro station and told her I had fun and said goodbye and then gave her a kiss on the cheek and hug, but she stood there looking at me and wouldn't leave. So I kissed her on the lips (which she again cut off quickly) and then left. So I guess she wanted to end the date on a "good note", which is kinda cute I suppose.

I think it would take several dates to progress much further with her and I've exhausted about every conversation point I can think of so I don't think I'll be seeing her again.

I get where you're coming from with the OKC thing. For me, the golden age of online dating was when OKC was still super popular and before they made the horrendous changes. It was great knowing that there was compatibility on the key issues and knowing a bit more about the girl before the first date.

I think you just need to make a couple tweaks and just get out there and start meeting girls. The online dating landscape has really changed in 5 years.
You've obviously got a great deal going for and I'm sure you'll be fine.

So much this.

Gaddy-

Can we see some pics of this amazing apartment? I'm picturing Bruce Wayne's penthouse.

I don't think anyone's implying that. This thread is pretty much primarily from the male perspective so obviously the advice is geared towards giving each guy his best shot at attracting the largest quantity of females possible. From there it's mostly a #s game and I've always thought it's better just to meet a bunch of females and see what in-person chemistry is like b/c you can't really tell jack from a short profile and a couple photos.

We at least need to see the amazing view!

Foatie,

So if I call one of those late night numbers with the hot blonde chicks waiting to chat - it’s NOT going to be a hot 20 year old stripper just bored on an off night at home and waiting for me to call?!?

C-

Well, I already put this one in the Whiskey thread here.

New York version of Gaddy?

Would you say its pretty tough now?

The one thing I like about profile style sites as opposed to meeting people irl or shallower dating apps is you get a good idea of what people are into. Sure, people put their best self out there...but I think they're pretty honest about their interests. You could still easily pick out the outdoorsy chicks or girls into water sports etc.

Earlier this year I found out my long term gf (met at work) hates the beach...she just pretended to love it bc she knew I was into tons of water activities... all bc she thought I was cute. While compromise is needed in any relationship and appreciated, I found this pretty odd and tbh it pissed me off a bit.

So I guess my point is that people can be fake irl too...at least with a profile people tell you straight up what they are into.
