Meh…Lost interest in POF

[megatoad69Participant 449]

I just feel like I am looking at delicious meat,….that’s sitting on the trigger of a bear trap.

They say POF is bad for a man’s self esteem, true, but what gets me is that you invest so much time and effort into texting back and forth and using time to do it for so little reward.
I got lucky once, but after that it just seems futile. You make one little slip and the job interview is over, one ‘x’ on a page of check-marks and you are toast and you haven’t even met her yet, you are judged on TEXT. It seems impersonal, judgemental, and competitive.

Some (a lot) are just looking for attention, a pen pal for ego’s sake, and a lot of them are just undesirable.

So, anyway, I am not putting effort into it at this time, if they want to approach me first that’s great, I have the best luck with those girls.

But in general, I am using POF more as a tool to understanding female psychology more than anything, and in doing so I come to the conclusion that effort is a waste of my time.

You can't reason with unreasonable, there; women, figured out, there is nothing to reason.

Think of it like the chimpanzee exhibit at the zoo…

..It’s fascinating and entertaining to observe, but walk in there thinking you are one of them, and they would gladly show you the meat side of your own face.

Do not feed the animals.

I’ll answer your question, in a simple way:

Men find reasons to like a woman.
Women find reasons to reject men.

why is that? Women think they are the prize to be sought after. Then it backfires.

Shit Tested, Cunt Approved.

It does appear that way I agree, however if you look really closely at the “meat” you will see it is rancid, if you get closer and pick it up you will find all the maggots that have been living beneath it laying it’s eggs and feeding off it.

Women on these sites aren’t interested in finding anyone, they jump on and before they even post a photo or fill out their profiles idiots are messaging them with requests for sex. This makes them feel both empowered and bored all at once. Unless you look like Brad Pitt in his prime you won’t get very far with online dating.

The problem is the whole set up is a self perpetuating mess, Mangina’s and other f~~~ wits grovel to these women with dumb arse messages, women get bored and overwhelmed but also feel in demand so they hang out waiting for better, better doesn’t come of course because most of the men messaging them are only trying their luck and/or trolling.

Doomed from the very start.

That is so true, and is what frustrates me, how many times have I wanted something to work out, you go and tell all your friends and workmates about how great things are going, she likes me, etc.
Only to come home to read a message (or lack of a message) that she is no longer interested because you said the wrong thing back in text # 203, never mind all the things she liked about you, One negative and your toast, deal broken.
Either that or you lost to the competition.

The day of a date or text communication feels like Judgement day to me, who likes to be judged? Who enjoys building something and have it torn down without a care? After a while you don’t want to build anymore.

This may come off a bit PROJECTION-ey but…

Just for fun, Let’s say you say EXACTLY the right stuff in the beginning. Then you date and you say/do exactly the right stuff while you are dating…

That would be GREAT if it ended there, but the problem is she’ll still go suck-start a line of jerks and then come home and kiss you on the lips because she will RATIONALIZE that you were not exciting enough or some other bull s~~~…

F~~~ man, I’m STOKED they are self-entitled enough to ignore me now!

Their rejection is a blessing… if marrying you is the most hateful thing a woman can do to a man (which it is), wouldn’t rejection then be the most generous?

If nearly all of the women on the sites are divorced or separated one or more times; already .. how long would it be before she dumps me? I’d say sooner than later. She’s not worth an ounce of effort since I lose time and money and emotional investment. Even if she’s a widow with no kids or a skinny librarian spinster; they’re all AWALTs. It’s lose-lose for a guy. Besides, why is she on that site to begin with? It’s a money trap and she’s the cheese, most often big fat cheese. Life is so much better avoiding them. Tonight, stone fired pizza and the best sci-fi dvd ever written.

It’s a cesspool. Plain and simple.

[megatoad69Participant 449]

Took me a while to move out of the man cave simply because her former area just didn’t feel right. But now it does.
I am not liking the thought of sharing living space with a future mate.

As far as women in general, I want one, and I don’t want one. It’s confusing to want something and not want something at the same time.

I guess POF is mostly ‘not wants’ and the one’s I do want are not available or are too demanding they all want their Prince and they get WAY more attention than in real life ( M-F ratio ~7:1 )because the desperate move down the ladder in the quality dept. because the average ones are rejecting them, hence, even the 3’s are demanding, then there are the ones with 3 kids (and they come first), the fussy, the nutjobs, flakes, etc. The gems are rare there.

It’s depressing.
But, I did read from a few sources that POF can be demeaning and futile for a lot of men, and I kept that in mind. Yet I say it’s depressing, so I had to remind myself of the down side that I read about. Yet I have had better luck on POF than in the real world, but it took a lot of time investment.

But I do run my own life now, and I live with a bunch of cats.

I three kids from three different men, like the UN household.Very old hot pics, then she gained like 80 lbs. Gross.
I’m so done now with that dating s~~~. I learned much.
Glad I took the red pill.

No kids, but try ~150lbs over what her pics suggested, well angled, pre-weight gain pics, when I saw her she had huge shoulders, a hunchback and no hips.

When she came to my door my first thoughts were ‘OMG, is she EVER HUGE!’

I stopped chatting with her except for once when I told her I felt deceived.

O.O I always feel like I am looking at rancid meat. I actually did everything I could to close my account. Still f~~~ing get mail from POf in my junk folder

Today I have come to the conclusion that even cell phones or rather smart phones have in women’s hands merely mutated into little more than just basic “attention geiger counters”, well that’s the way they mostly use them in this day and age anyways.

Hey, next time you see another one sample of such busily typing species in your surrounding you might as well call her out in a sense and just blatantly go like: “Well lass/damsel, so how’s your read out on your attention geiger counter today..?” translated as in “how’s it going (within your stock exchange sexual market trade value)..?” Upon that give it a brief grin on your face and walk (your own way) away …

(–never minding their potentially startled reaction if that–)

I'd rather die a natual death with a clear MGTOW conscience somewhere off the grid than one within "modern" civilisation with a big stress mark on my forehead and a couple of dozen tubes plugged into my body. Back to the plantation..? Me..? Hey, literally: I won't ever fucking kid myself...YZERLMNTSIC

A lesson from Mario Puzo’s The Godfather: What Puzo called “primitive cultures” insisted that a woman be a virgin until marriage; that marriage, for her, be at a young age; that she remain faithful to her husband at all costs. The “primitive culture” in question, namely Sicilian culture, was prepared to back its cultural norms with lethal force.

I think Puzo was using “primitive cultures” with tongue in cheek. I think he really meant “successful cultures.” That was the only system that worked down through the ages. What we call “modern” is a recipe for disaster, and it is a disaster unfolding right before our eyes — Puzo was trying to tell us this.

(I mean the book, not the movie. In the movie, the impossibly cute young woman who got blown up is the object of Puzo’s philosophizing in the book.)

That’s exactly what they are NT. Handheld orbiter control devices they are.

It is true that online dating really sucks for men and congratulations on crossing the line MT69. I posted before about my fake female ad drawing 33 replies to it versus 0 for my real one.

I do have a 50 year old female acquaintance that uses POF. She attracts plenty of attention as she is quite attractive. She recently told me she is quitting, because she’s tired of getting pumped and dumped. The women are still selecting the dysfunctional trash just like they do/did in real life.

I’ve recently come to the conclusion that online dating is artificial support for a post Wall woman’s SMV. Stealth is right. Time wasted on women is time not spent bettering one’s self. You’re going to waste boatloads of finite time in the online scene.

I recently had a blue pill friend pressuring me to go online. Yeah right, I’ll get right on that………. The exact same blue pill friend who c~~~ blocked me a few years ago when I had a tourist wench in meat space giving me the doe eyes and being putty in my hands. People wonder why I fly solo.

The problem with the whole “plenty of fish” approach is that even if you get something, it still smells like fish.

It’s only bad for your self esteem if you allow them to control your sense of worth. So I can’t agree with this. I can however get on board of the whole wasted time thing. The solution is to make them entertain you instead of the other way around. Once they fall back into the interview/checklist/s~~~ test mode, just drop them. Most of them will start out in this mode and never be able to be entertaining, so you will not waste very much time.

DISCLAIMER: Personally, I only find online dating sites useful for entertainment. Since they can only do their checklists/s~~~ tests or outright say “entertain me”, I just give them outrageous answers to their questions just to see their reactions. The last time I looked on a online site, the vast majority of pictures were land whales that would make me look in shape next to them. And I’m not a small guy.
