"Pain in the hole unless you are on a shit ton of money and look like thor you are wasting your time "

The thing is, I don't even see it as being down to something that shallow. For me its the juggling act of your time / commitments / personal development / work. Having someone's needs and emotions constantly fluctuating on top of that fine balance seems to be too much for me. They say communication is key but no matter how you dress it up, people just don't like to be told no (or lets compromise)!

Social dynamics have changed so much over the past few years. Gone are the days of going out and chatting someone up. I think life is just so stressful and relationships as a whole have changed. Social media and phones have a lot to answer as privacy and space is much harder.

Dating these days just seems ridiculous.

Once upon a time, you talked face to face. You met people in various ways then you asked those people out on a date and they said yes or no. In some cases you did the whole "lonely hearts" thing but I recall people turning their nose up at that. Either way, you had to interact with other people to get anywhere.

These days it seems like people are incapable of meeting others unless some sort of app is involved. Seems like everyone is waiting for that elusive match up on whatever dating profile they have.

Society has also changed as well so thats not helping but damn, given what I'm seeing I couldn't be chewed with any of it personally. It would be easier to stay single rather than be judged by random internet strangers with unrealistically high standards.

No wonder birth rates are going down.

I remember stepping into online dating (which was new to me) after years of marriage. Its a pretty brutal and draining roller coaster. The only upside is I got to go out and date a few good women (sadly none of them just quite the one for me) and have a few interesting nights out with new people. But it turns out I just needed to be on Fab to find my one.

I don't find it so bad at all so long as you keep an open mind about everyone you connect with, ever remembering that nobody comes with their CV, mental health records, or their experian credit report, so you don't actually find out about their distressed circumstances, bi polar condition, maxed out credit cards, and mortgage arrears etc until after you have seen the whites of her eyes, and in most cases, until after you have woken up next to her in the morning.

I see online dating as comparable with something like playing a bandit in a social club, the odds are that you are going to be on a loser everytime, but there's always the odd chance of hitting the jackpot, and you are going to get the odd dividend along the way. As they say about the lottery, "You have to be in it to win it." It's also a bit like waiting for a bus, it doesn't matter if you miss the first one as there will be another one along in a minute, and even if you jump on a particular bus, and you are not happy with the direction it's going in, you simply jump off that bus and get on, and get on another one until you get to where you want to be. If it's a free dating site, and not "Pay as U pull," why look a gift horse in the mouth? Happy days!

I think you are right , with so much choice on the apps people are way more picky.

I’ve met some really nice people on dates but there’s always something that bugs me about them and I just think to myself carry on until someone perfect comes along, or just carry on dating them for a while but don’t have sex.

I also aware the older I get the less attractive I am as a potential partner but my own standards actually get nighter. So probably destined to be single

Dating ultimately falls down to either settling for what you can get or working on yourself until your good enough to get what you want

It’s a battle between standards and self development

Most peoples standards are way above what they can get and they aren’t willing to put in the work for what they want

All of that encased with a healthy portion of luck. Getting lucky enough to meet the right people at the right time

It’s hard but I’ve come to realise I’m single because my standards are too high.

Dating ?...it's for some people but it certainly ain't for others, the people who it's for don't mind it one bit , they actually love it but for the people it's not for they're just tired of being put up on a shelf to be knocked down by some faceless stranger on the internet or if a real date takes place is judged by what type of clothes they wear , what type of restaurant they want to eat in etc etc , dating is NOT for everyone , the biggest danger anyone can do in dating is settle for the other person and that is totally a waste of time for both , better off to be single than to settle because if you settle you are only fooling yourself , everyone is different and you gotta keep going until you find that gem , don't worry about the stones and when you find that gem never let that person go because simply put each let eachother be themselves , it's so important , never let anyone change the person you are ..to answer the OP's question..dating is a minefield , in my opinion anyone that has dated will know this , it's for some but certainly isn't for others

I do enjoy going on dates, even the ones that don't work out.

I just like the chance to get to chat to a new person and find out about their life. I'd never question someone about their income though, I like to get a bit deeper than that on a first date

I swipe on people who look interesting/have a decent profile that reads well, rather than just initial attraction (especially cause not everyone is photogenic) and have met some really great people.

I do think people talk less these days though compared to 6-7 years ago when I was last on dating apps. It seems some people just want to gather as many matches as they can, but if there's no conversation within a day or two or if it fizzles out after a few days I just unmatch and continue my search.

I'm self sufficient working hard with a full time and part time job and I'd never dream of asking a fella about their finances (I wouldn't like that question put to me) and I'd be offended if a guy presumed I had that mindset. Me? I'm more interested in the guy...

Its almost impossible to get a date face to face now. Pandemic aside, everyone is glued to their phones and even a simple hello can get people backing up as they aren't used to real spontaneous conversations.

I've worked with guys who had a massive hit rate on dating apps but then get nowhere as they can't converse organically and all the banter they can type melts away in real conversation.

I've done the online dating thing on and off, but I live 10 miles from Heathrow so I have all but given up on it.

I have made friends with a couple of local grey squirrels who hang around mine though, so it's not all bad.

If I'm on Fab, that's what I expect but dating sites, I expect different...that's if I can find a bloke in my age range who seems to take dating more seriously who doesn't look like a homeless or a psycho!! Why do male divorcees of my age look like they've given up on themselves completely??

The paradox. I would only talk to one lady at once. When that inevitably finished, if someone had messaged in between, I would then text them and say I could chat now. I'd then get a kicking fir not 'hedging' my bets. Can't win x

"It's only hard if you make it hard

This. I don't go on many dates, and not really looking for anything serious right now, so maybe I'm just not doing the difficult bit, but a coffee, drink or occasional dinner (or game of darts, my new fave!), without expectation that I've found true love, is really nice. Sometimes there's a spark and a second/third date and sometimes it's a hasty retreat, but getting to know people should be fun.

Haven't had the same experience as some guys above about questions about money etc, which is obviously awful and can see why that would make anyone cynical and jaded. But keep going, OP!

For something that should be very you like me I like you let’s date it seems to be a lot harder than needs be. I would date if I meet someone genuinely interested in dating but I haven’t yet found someone willing to put in the same effort as me. Had it for a while but distance ended it

The online dating game seems to be just that a game. I played the game for a year and had 3 semi sensible relationships doing it (definitely no one nighters or serial dating). In general as has been already stated some folk have got massively unrealistic expectations - almost all are carrying heavy emotional scar tissue (myself included). If you think about it - it's not setup to succeed!! How would they generate revenue if every person found their new partner straight away and left the site?

When I gave up on "dating" and concentrated on things I actually wanted to do for myself I met "HER" and she is the best thing that's ever happened to me. To top it off she is as much of a deviant as I am so proper HAPPY DAYS

I think it's a great experience if you can relax yourself into it

People pile so much pressure on themselves and others, often enter dating with cynicism, trepidation and 'looking for things'

Expectations are often so particular that dates rarely meet them

We tend to look for what we don't like as opposed to what we do, the smallest faux pas can be a trigger

I don't think I've ever really dated, I've just enjoyed hanging round with people and getting to know them

3 of them have turned into long term relationships

I'm also friends with a couple who didn't make it that far

This!!! It's all well & good having sexual freedom & less judgment to see a few people before looking seriously, but in a way, we screw ourselves over because we're highly unlikely to find all of our desired attributes in one person...then if we do, we don't match enough of the other person's criteria!!
