What is a good number of matches per week on Tinder

Too much experience with women.....what is that?

Is that "a few bad experiences which have made them bitter and resentful" because I've no doubt they have that in spades

Some of the better known posters i would say have had too much experience with women,It poses a lot of difficult questions and uncomfortable truths...not for the faint hearted

People get hurt in the game of life. Then they extrapolate that experience to include an entire gender in the blame for it. And inexperienced men with difficulties with women listen and absorb, and in doing so legitimise their resentments and lack of success. Confirmation bias is a powerful thing, and vulnerable people like to hear that they're doing nothing wrong, it's all the enemys fault.

Thats the real uncomfortable truth.

I've met a few from tinder over the years where I've been off and on it. I'm not for one minute saying every girl is at it. Like I said though, a very large percentage have the photoshop game on lockdown, masters of deception. I'm sorry to offend you if you fall into that catogery, nothing personal.

Let's be honest Tinder is full of attention seeking sluts, Men and Women, it's highly unlikely you'll find the love of your life on it imo.

And this is the kind of thing that helps me form that unflattering opinion. You're giving yourself away with this stuff, and no woman likes a nasty man.

Nothing personal.

I'm confused as to how one can get to know "a large percentage" of the women on Tinder well enough to know that they are a)competent with Photoshop and b) insecure enough to photoshop their profile picture, without in the process revealing something of oneself. In which case a rejection from one of those women is highly likely to be due to what we might diplomatically call "personal differences."

Don't forget the make up.

Sure without it they'd probably only be as attractive as you. So why are they rejecting you, eh? It's not like they're all that.

Clue: Maybe they feel they have more going for them than just their looks.

I don't have a problem with women wearing makeup, it's just when they wear so much to the point that they are completely unrecognizable and beneath it all aren't as pretty as you thought they were, then it's deception. Why can't you just get it ?

Like this for example.

Well okay, let's all just live a lie and pretend we look like our photoshop pictures. It's nartistic and fake, I'm not being nasty, I'm telling you the reality of it. There's no need to take offense to my opinion, as I said it's not personal, but there's no denying the desception on tinder.

Ah here we go again with the makeup sh1te. Women wear makeup. Why can't you just get over it?

No, you see you said:

To insinutate that I photoshop myself in online dating pictures or facebook, and that's why I was disputing your version of events. Lets not pretend otherwise. Not very pleasant, but neither was your other post so its not surprising.

I closed my FB a long time ago, and I've never been on an online dating site. I've no idea how to photoshop as I'm not very techie. So your suspicion is unfounded, and mine is confirmed.

You brought it up again and it looks like you are still ignoring what I said. Just look at the photo I posted ffs

To be fair unless you have used Tinder I think you would doubt the fact that photo's aren't a particularly good guide, but it really is a bit much for some people its not even a resentment thing for me I saw friends profiles a couple of times.
Personally when I was using other sites that you viewed on a full screen the gap wasn't as big, it makes sense though those sites have more than just a photo as the selling point and from a technical point a photo that looks good on a 4-6 inch screen might look much worse on a laptop, tricks like bright light source behind, funny angles,artistic" effects, facepaint all look worse and as obvious tricks on a larger screen and photoshop if used has to be used to a higher standard.

Nope I merely apologized in advanced just encase you fell into that catogery, that was all, but obviously you don't.

You've never been on tinder, so in reality you're opinion is irrelevant and your arguing for the sake of arguing, thats nasty.

Except I wasn't discussing Tinder, just your opinions of the women on it and what you see as their propensity for deception.

IMHO nobody who posts that kind of nastiness should really be calling anyone else "nasty" just for disagreeing with them. Hypocrisymaxing!

Telling someone "we've already had the makeup discussion" is not an invitation to you to start in with it again. This was silly enough the first time around Brian, women are not going to stop wearing makeup so you can either get used to it or refuse to date anyone with makeup on. They're not good enough for you with makeup, they're not good enough for you without makeup....you really are going to have to find some way to come to terms with it.

Ffs indeed, mate, ffs indeed.

Ive never seen a girl use photoshop on her pictures. But people can make themselves look significantly different with angles and lighting.

All the reregs and they're probably all the same person too. Wibbs is on to something.

Since this has turned into a thread about makeup, women, photoshop etc., I think it has run its course.

There's an online dating forum for serious discussion on the topic but I'm afraid you haven't been a member long enough to request access, OP. There's a link in the Feedback forum somewhere.
