Online Dating Sites & Turn Offs

Posted by GemLover

God and not -so-much hahahahahaha

Naw I never did the on line dating thing. If we cant meet up and talk privately in person then what's the use. I met mines at a laundromat years ago. We've known each other and been together since. I say get out and go somewhere like to your favorite place or whatever and start meeting men there.

And me being a man hardly nothing turns me off in a woman if I was on a dating site. I mean I cant think of anything she would say or ask that would turn me off. I'll be more frighten that it'll be me that would turn a woman off on a dating site.

Sorry not much help here. Just have to wait and see what others have to contribute.

Hey! So, I'm about 90 mins outside of Atl, where there is so many social activities to do (of course, because it's a large city). I really want to meet people, mingle, have fun etc. But I'm NOT about to drive there every weekend.

I'm also looking to start dating some compatible men too.

I'm in a much smaller area. Started looking online. Connecting with various dating sites. But, I realize that that isn't something I have patience with. By no means am I in a hurry to be in a relationship, but the truth is, people are great at pretending behind a keyboard 🤦

Lately, when creating dialogue with another, the first question out of his mouth is, "Can you share more pics with me?" To me, this is a big turnoff for me. I've had 3 men in the past day, make this request. It's pathetic. Especially when my profile has enough.

What would be a turn off for you?

Have you ever met a "quality candidate" through an online site?

Share your experience with me. God and not-so-much 🙂

Does your profile include full body shots? Some men want to see the whole package and different angles so they don't waste their time getting cat fished.

Just select maybe 3 more pics of you and send those ones out when they request more. You can always ask what type of pictures or was there anything specific they were looking for that wasn't in the other pics.

I just created an online profile for dating, my first time. I'm gonna check it out in about a week, let the valentines day stuff die down first

A good 95% + of the men on dating sites are a huge turn off. It’s disturbing when they ask for more pics, when they think they’re being suave with their cheesy pickup lines, etc. During my short time I probably met up with a few and all except one I agreed to meet up with because they weren't trying so ridiculously hard to impress me. We would talk about stuff like serial killers, social stigmas, their psycho sister, how their stated six figure salary by age 25 is probably fake, then boom, unexpectedly I agree to meet up with them and have a pretty good time in real life. Maybe I'm weird but I swear most guys on there try too painfully hard. And there seems to be a decline in people who choose to be textually articulate.

I hate online dating. I’ve decided not to do it anymore. Have you tried meetup.com maybe you can find interests without being dating related. Man I wish I lived that close to a big city. it’s tough in the boonies lol

posting memes instead of their real photos

overly edgy jokes and absolutely nothing personal in their bio, this usually goes together with the meme thing

being barely a 6/10 and saying things like ‘you’ll have to entertain me, I won’t waste my time and money on a hoe, etc.’

being just fine or even better, but presenting themselves as ‘ugly but at least funny’ n trying too hard to look goofy

when they are being obvious fuckboys with the ‘wyd tonite gurl’ messages, and I say ‘hey umm I’m not gonna straight up fuck with you’, they reply ‘woah chill I was just being friendly’

this is not a turn off tho, just a hilarious response

this is all from tinder

You have to weed out the bad options. There’s a lot of bad options. Even the guys you think have potential usually disappoint. I’ve been on so many first dates in the last year. No seconds lol hope you have better luck.

Exactly, I also wanted to suggest meetup

look up the options in your area or create a group yourself

you can mingle with people and meet some men without the pressure of dating, and you see them in real life and then you can decide
