We are extremely close to shutting down this thread for the same reasons the PUA thread was shut down. While some of the time this thread contains actual discussion with people asking help and people giving nice advice, it often gets derailed by rubbish that should not be here. The moderation team will be trying to steer this thread in a different direction from now on.

Posts of the following nature are banned:
1) ANYTHING regarding PUA. If your post contains the words 'alpha' or 'beta' or anything of that sort please don't hit post.
2) Stupid brags. You can tell us about your nice success stories with someone, but posts such as 'lol 50 Tinder matches' are a no-no.
3) Any misogynistic bullshit, including discussion about rape culture.
4) One night stands and random sex. These are basically brags that invariably devolve into gender role discussions and misogynistic comments.

Last chance, guys. This thread is for dating advice and sharing dating stories. While gender roles, sociocultural norms, and our biological imperative to reproduce are all tangentially related, these subjects are not the main purpose of the thread. Please AVOID these discussions. If you want to discuss them at length, go to PMs or start a blog. If you disagree with someone's ideologies, state that you disagree with them and why they won't work from a dating standpoint and move on. We will not tolerate any lengthy derailments that aren't directly about dating.

Just a quick update guys. I'm not going to read the responses to this one until after our next date I think since despite my best efforts I was almost throne off by that other guy. But my goodness life is awesome. We hung out again tonight, turns out she still thinks I'm awesome :p. And I still think she's incredible. That's the thing guys, that other dude wasn't wrong, if this was a girl who didn't really care one way or another about me then not kissing could potentially have had some consequences. But, like me she just spent the last 6 months with her nose in the books pushing forward through a tough year of university, and now we each have a whole summer available to us for all the rest of the joy that life offers and it seems like we're both okay with gradually getting this whole thing off the ground rather than wrecking it by moving too fast.

Thanks to the people here who are cheering me on, I love that stuff. And I acknowledge those who think this is going to end poorly and are "just looking out for me" or whatever. The thing is, I spent my entire adult life meeting girl after girl who isn't interested in me, and trying to fake it till I made it. That's not what's going on here. She likes me, I like her, she's brilliant and funny and beautiful and she seems to think I'm pretty swell too. That's all we need for this to work baby, not some set of rules.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

The next thing you will have to watch out for is you yourself becoming the guy that knows it all and your relationship being superior to all others xD

Yeah you are definitely romanticising before even knowing the girl here but as I said - for someone with no experience, any experience is good!

And nobody can say things are going to end poorly, because no matter how many things you are messing up (and you are, and that's okay when you're getting your first experiences) attraction is not a choice and if it's really really high you can screw up plenty before she loses romantic interest. Especially if she's inexperienced herself, which seems to be the case.

You reap what you sow guys...

Treat a "bad girl" like a lady and you could get a devout wonderful woman out of it. Treat a "good girl" like a tool for sex and you'll get someone that is emotionally completely detached from you.

All of you have more power over setting the pace in a relationship then you might think. You can influence like at least half this stuff.

Not quite sure what your comment was related to... but I think few people would even bother with someone who they thought was "bad" in the first place.

It was aimed at the general comments of how people think you should behave on a date to be successful, like the one saying you have to kiss on the first date for example.

In this context I meant "bad" as in a girl that shows what is often considered as bad behavior such as having many different partners for example. Considering that definition I can promise you quite a few people have bothered with girls like that.

"Bad" as in naughty/ easy/ superficial, I think?

I don't know how frequently you'll change the girl per se, as opposed to the chemistry just not working out/ them not appreciating you treating them differently. You'll probably break up and fail at the relationship.

That's why I call it influencing it. But it isn't as out or your hands as people seem to think.

I'm in love with a girl whom I will probably never be with. Moved away from her last year, every time I visit home I'm seeing her, she's with one of my best friends, and we get close behind backs. She wont leave him and I don't see me moving back.

Over the last month it got realy bad, I'm seeing a very nice girl whom I realy like, so I thought atleast, but I can't get an errection with her which drives me fucking crazy. I'm thinking non stop about that girl at home, I realy don't know what to do, should just forget her but I can't..

Just don't be weak, stop all contact with her no matter what it takes, keep exploring other women, you will get over her sooner or later. It's not rocket science.


It's like my friend who keeps porking his ex, rotates 3+ other women and is wondering why he doesn't feel connected to any of them. Dating's actually pretty simple if you have self control.

Update time!

Since my last update I've met two girls, both through tinder with no real intention of finding something serious.

First girl was a bit bigger than her pictures and she was trying way to hard to be funny. Wasn't really attracted to her in any way so I just never talked to her again.

Just came back from the date of the second girl actually. She was fairly easy to talk to, looked more or less like I expected her too. She was really not my type at all though. She is a first year in university and she is going to be a student who plans parties etc, hard to explain but the translation would basically be "Party people". I don't know, might try to hook up with her?

No great "luck" that is. Got another date coming up this weekend though!

Tinder is just that good hehe

I don't really put in a lot of effort, I practically ask them out within 5 messages. As I am not really bothered with looking for something more serious I don't mind using tinder. And swiping is a lot of fun :D

Do you see a lot of really attractive women on Tinder as you swipe through? I've never used online dating, but I always wondered how scarcely hot guys and girls would appear, presumably because most wouldn't need to "resort" to online dating... But on the other hand, online dating has become completely normalized and can streamline the process pretty well, right? Although I've also heard that women get wayyy too many messages.

There's a hidden "elo" on tinder so if they pair people up based on empirical attractiveness . . .

I changed my pictures on tinder/bumble (read: got actual pictures that showed my face) and now I match up with hot chicks left and right. I like bumble better than tinder but I think there's a surplus of woman in my city (D.C. area). The problem with tinder/bumble is that hot women can still be dumb. Need some kind of iq test or something.

Oh yeah. Most girls are very attractive. I do believe a handful of the girls just use it to boost their own ego. However this is Sweden, people are generally very bad att asking out each other so Tinder is honestly a good choice.

Yeah, quite a few attractive women on Tinder, even in northern Germany - though 75% of the one's I see are actually Danish, because Tinder is bad with borders. However, I recently reduced my search area back to 20km since I noticed that I don't actually want anyone further away, and now I'm back to seeing at most 2-3 profiles a day - also usually all of them danish.

I still met a nice woman through Tinder with whom I've been occasionally enjoying the nice weather the last two weeks. Nothing serious, since she isn't actually looking for a relationship (according to her profile), but it's been nice to have a reason to go outside for a coffee. Too bad she's a WoW and Minecraft nerd (her words) and I'm not a big fan of either while she's not a big fan of Heroes of the Storm nor 4x games. Well, and she likes Jar Jar Binks.
On Friday she wants to cook together with me, so I now have to think of something nice that I want to eat, something that probably shouldn't be pizza, chicken fillet or meat loaf.
