I mean instagram or not, anybody who is constantly looking for attention means lack of confidence, lack of confidence isn’t attractive so naturally you don’t want a relationship with these instababes or whatever

Don't forget about all of the filters and editing capabilities! They take the perfect pose, perfect light, and perfect angle and perfect it even more.

I'm engaged, but if I was in the dating world, the filters and clear picture editing would be an immediate turnoff. Which means that 99% of the girls would probably be off of my radar, lol.

Yeah... I often ask for a picture of the girl flipping off the camera after I get their number, for a few reasons.

Spoiler:


This is typical. This girl is young and very pretty too. Was definitely a turn off.

Spoiler:


Ironically the girl in the 2nd picture has been very open about her physical insecurities, like thinking she has a tiny butt (it's not) but comes across very confident and secure in her actions

Any working, agency-signed model is going to have an IG presence. It's generally a requirement of the job.
If you don't want to date a model, that's certainly a preference you can exercise although I find them to be as normal/insecure/weird as any other young woman of that age cohort, but not dating them for having social media activity is odd.

The point of the job is to bring brand awareness to whomever paid them for the shoot which is the raison d'etre of social media. My personal experience is that virtually none of them like having their photo taken outside of work.

IG thots, different animal. And I completely agree with you.

Meh, I think this is true and not true. Some people seeking attention lack confidence. Some people seeking attention are supremely confident. It's up to you if you choose to investigate which one is which. Certainly probability and the cost of finding out might be against you. But a very smart person once said that attention is the [new] scarce commodity. Some people confidently understand that and post on Instagram, LinkedIn, etc because the attention has use, frequently directly tied to opportunity. Some do it because they have a deep need of the hearts and faves to make it through their lives.

fair point, I suppose it's harder to tell when someone does it for the money, they may or may not be confident, those who are constantly looking for it just for the sake of it most likely lack confidence

I could only extend her once and then she was gone. I had my first bumble conversation today with a 38 year old white female, slightly better looking than the Asian chick. The conversation felt weird to me with her asking lots of questions. Anyways, at 10PM she said she was going to bed but then at midnight I noticed her conversation was gone. My initial thought was : typical female. However, upon further consideration there were several flags that make me wonder if it was actually a scam account. I'm not sure how prevalent those are but I assume they exist. I'm gonna go with 65% typical female, and 35% scam account.

I dunno how you can think that. My profile has lots of information about me. Hers was mostly blank and then there were too many coincidences for me to think she was a real person. She said she did business with private equity firms...my ass! She also said she lives in Preston Hollow but her location was 5 miles away and the furthest point in Preston Hollow is only 4 miles away which makes that claim

I just remembered at one point she mentioned that she really likes the Verified feature on Bumble. Like who says that other than scammers who have found a way around the account verification system (which seems easy enough).

DC I think your main issue is you go into every interaction with them females much like you do with us.

Skeptical, pessimistic, awaiting failure, and insecure are not attractive.

Open your heart and mind a little and don't be afraid of meeting up with a woman you later decide your not interested in for coffee.

Honestly, you do seem like you're doing this not for the purpose of dating. You match with the girl and then instead of proceeding to chat and attempting to meet up you search for any excuse to dismiss it. Stop channeling your inner Larry David.

DC,

It's probably good for all these typical female chicks who definitely don't have good jobs, education, or know where they love that you are short, ugly, and a bad conversionalist, so they avoid the unfortunate outcome of winding up spending time in person with you. I suppose most even happily avoid a chat conversation. It's probably better for you as well, since you seem generally uninterested in spending time with them, beyond perhaps the academic pursuit of sex. More time to stare at your closet of ill-fitting overpriced shirts, and spend in your pool. Everyone wins.

I don't think I enter it like that at all. I'm actually quite excited anytime I get a match. I figured out how to go through my whole beeline, by expanding distance to 100 miles. Ended up with 3 matches: 1 sugar baby, 1 hooker, and 1 high iq sophisticated 19 yr old. So let's see where these go.

Yeah if they don't have good jobs then they have no future with me. Im not a kid anymore so I could care less about their education.

I don't give two ****s what is your station in life, but if you want honest advice, there it is. You gotta cleanse that negativity man.

As for the Instagram and "pictures" comment I made that drew such a strong response, it was a generalization. Obviously, there are women who have their picture taken quite often because of their job. Maybe they are an actress or politician or C.E.O. Nothing wrong with that. It's a lot different compared to someone who is psychologically damaged or just a hustler and trying to self-promote.
40 years of rejection by women will make you negative on the subject too. I think I was only being negative 3 days ago though. Yesterday I was just amazed that I had probably been talking to a scam artist, probably American. Was just unexpected and interesting.

Well now I think it's like 70% a scam artist but even if a real person I never got rejected. That was the whole point of why that is a typical female. Do you disagree? Is that not typical of women? Unable to be truthful and honest and take the more difficult road out of respect for your fellow human being? I dunno, you tell me. Reminds me of the people at the park that don't pick up their dog's poop.
