They're at it once more Jow Forums. >When I was single in my late 30s, I went through a spate of online dating. I signed up to the relevant apps. I chose profile photos that were flattering yet approachable. I pretended I had hobbies. I completed the biographical Q&As in what I hoped was a witty manner, despite the increasingly esoteric nature of the questions. ‘What’s the most spontaneous thing you’ve ever done?’ was one of them. I agonised over it for several minutes before scheduling an answer some time in late 2019.
>‘I’m so jealous,’ said a married friend when I told her what I was up to, ‘I’d love to go on a date.’ I heard this a lot. There was an assumption, from people who’d been coupled-up for years, that online dating would be a whirlwind of fun. They imagined Mr Big from Sex and the City whisking me to a discreetly lit Michelin-starred restaurant where I would order lobster and champagne and, at the end of the night, he would lean across the table and kiss me passionately.

>When I did meet men from an app in real life, they would almost always be a disappointment. Not because their photo made them seem taller and less jowly than they actually were (although this was certainly true) but because when we met face to face they would fail to ask any questions.
>The onus of the chitchat was therefore left to me and I obliged, asking about jobs, family, favourite colours and that one time they travelled across Eastern Europe to learn the Romany violin. I assumed an expression of polite fascination as they went on about themselves, never once lobbing a question back. ‘I can tell you’re a journalist,’ one said, 45 minutes into an evening already drained of romantic possibility. ‘You ask a lot of questions.’
>Yes, I wanted to say, because otherwise we’d be sitting in uncomfortable silence. This, I felt like pointing out, was how conversation worked: I ask a question, you reply and ask one back, we find common ground, and so it goes on. It was dispiriting to discover how few men had any interest in this. They just wanted to talk about themselves and seemed to believe I would find them as compelling as they did.

>And it’s not just dates. I’ve noticed in the wider world, too, people fail to ask questions. It’s true I’m more curious than most (an unkinder word might be ‘nosey’) but that doesn’t absolve the other person of all responsibility to converse. It often seems to be men who don’t ask and women who are socially conditioned to keep things pleasant. In her book Fed Up, Gemma Hartley argues that despite gains in gender equality, it is still women who do ‘the unpaid, unseen work… to keep those around us comfortable and happy’. Into this category, Hartley puts tasks such as ensuring there’s enough toilet paper in the home and organising after-work parties for colleagues. And into this category I would add: keeping the chatter going to set others at ease.
>Yet I simply don’t believe women are genetically predisposed to be talkative and empathetic, while men are the strong, silent types, destined to for ever stare meaningfully towards the horizon, readying themselves to round up cattle. Conversation can be deeply pleasurable but it requires effort from both parties, in both the asking and the listening. Let’s make 2019 the year both sexes re-learn the art. Incidentally, the last online date I had was with a man who was the exception to all of the above. He asked questions. Even better, he listened to the answers. Obviously, I had to fall in love with him.

>roasties un ironically get married to and turn into "trad soccer moms" at 33 It might be one of those things that changes with the internet.

Nah this is coming from me, a literl 30 year boomer. Save yourself a lot of pain, leafbro women do not age the same as men so you should date one 5-7 years your junior and basically just fuck and chuck 25+ year olds; even if they aren't carrying baggage your kids will not be as healthy. My mother used to be a balarina and turned into a walrus after having my sister in her 30's

> how conversation worked: I ask a question you reply and as one back That's not how conversations work especially when getting to know someone. They go: Question, response, follow up question, response, anecdote, role reversal. It's then anecdote which helps you get to know someone. Questions and answers are just filler

Nah dude women choose who they fuck, men choose who they marry. Once you hit 30 yourself you will realize that as long as you aren't in debt and aren't fat your life as a 30 year old man is essentially akin to a 18 year old with DD's , also fuckin get ready because any girl that even partied moderately at 30 fucking melts, like 30 year old women IRL of the millenials anyways either look late 40's or early 20's with zero inbetween

I havent had decent sex in like...4 years or so and over the past 5 years ive been on maybe 5-6 dates So tell me more about how amazing life at 30 is for men
Fun story, friend of a friend asked me to entertain her friend and so i took her on one date. Sex was terrible and she looked like 35+ at 26, i didnt want a second date after that but she managed to find a new dude AND get preggo within 2 months despite this Women arent struggling at 30 user

>How come someone I meet for the first time doesn't act like they've known me for years?! It's amazing how retarded these women really are. You refuse to get into a serious relationship in your 20's because that goes against the linear progression of highschool>uni>job>marriage (yet you're willing to casually fuck, some some strange reason), you're 30+ by the time you get to serious relationship part because holy shit, education and finding a job take time, and then you get annoyed when strangers you date through dating apps (what, you didn't meet anyone at uni, at work, or through friends where there's some commonality to work with?) isn't like someone who is a close friend? Does she not know of the countless loving, stable relationships where the woman says 'I never would have imagined I'd be with him' because first impressions are always kind of weird, but over time through care and attention they develop into something wholesome? She's out of time - which she knows - and she's trying desperately to get that kind of relationship before she hit 40. Well guess what bitch? You aren't. I hope sleeping around in your 20's and rejecting the multiple suitable men because 'you're not ready for a serious relationship' was worth it. That latter part no doubt haunts countless women today.

This, I know this literal 10/10 who wants 3-4 kids but is in the film industry in Jew York...she’s 28 now and still hasn’t figured it out, probably will do the classic roastie thing and trap a beta at 34 and make 1 autistic kid then divorce/ cheat before 7 years...getting older gives you perspective but god damn there are only so many kinds of people and reality makes you jaded AF
Daniel Flores
>implying i havent done exactly this Oldest girl i dated was born 95 so its not exactly like im going for girls my own age
Problem still remains, how do you find girls who are 20-25 when you yourself are 30? And remember, girls who are 20 got more options in dating
Brandon Perry
Yeah but thirsty betas keep their cognative dissonance up; they still get laid so they think this means men still take them seriously...kinda sad desu you can be a male roastie (like I was) and fix yourself by 30 but you are absolutely fucked by 25 as a woman...like, I’m not even as ripped as ripped as I was early 20’s and I still get women out of fucking nowhere, like where the fuck were these cunts before I had to work all of the time and my liver could handle a good time? Just wait anons; fucking 3 girls I barely knew in High School asked me this year to be a sperm doner to which I hilariously declined because “I think autistic kids are a bad idea”

Ive had plenty of hobbies, done a few martial arts, i lift regularly and tried dancing Doesnt really work, its alot harder than "just talk to girls lol" because most of em are taken already and those who are single and single because they want to be
I wish it wasnt so fucking hard, i cant even imagine how bad my life had been if i wasnt good looking and got girls to approach me. Id prolly be a virgin still
Parker Phillips
Swedebro , im a couple of years older than you and its exactly the same here. All the dudes that talk about this hitting 30 and rolling in pussy are usually from the US. I think in our feminist shitholes no age is good for a man, unless youre the top 2 percent. When i travel elsewhere in the world women in their early, late 20 and early 30's seem much more keen. Try going to eastern europe.

It's actually that your social ineptitude means you can't take the hint that they don't want to talk, and are trying to not be rude and tell you to fuck off. I'll have a conversation with someone if I want, but I can't stand being held verbally hostage because someone else can't take the hint.
Isaac Rivera
No dude. Been to belgium? I have family all over the lowlands. Nobody wants to talk to anyone. Americans are different, you can strike up a convo most places and people like to chat. As i have saud in this thread these dudes need to travel to meet girls. American girls in the south and midwest are friendly as fuck by comparison.

I was wrong
Austin Howard
>I pretended I had hobbies Lmao
Evan Torres
Autochtoon hier. I can confirm, lots of people in the cities don't much fancy talking with strangers but that's mostly because most people living in the city weren't actually born or raised there. We used to have a bit of a market tradition where any stallholder would call any female customer a darling or sweetheart, whether they buy or not. Just a friendly courtesy that keeps everyone's spirits up. Now that most merchants are either not local or downright foreign, that doesn't happen anymore. I'm not even mentioning the absolute tension between men and women in these generally liberal shitholes. The slightest mistake can yield the greatest consequences, not that the women are worth failing for.

Yep. The downsides to population movement (internal and from external) and multiculturalism. Used to be you could talk to women because there was always an ethnic or local comnection in some way, so the fear from them was lower. You were more likely to be trusted. Now everyone is a stranger not to be trusted. No wonder guys who arent the top in looks online cant find a girl.
