It's a numbers game.... but not the ratio numbers.
Jump to: Newest in thread
I have a theory why so many newbie guys are baffled by the lack of interest they get on sites such as these.
As a result of a number of serious studies on attraction, it is pretty safe to generalise that men more often overrate how attractive they are and women underrate how attractive they are…. hence why you see so many fit women going out with average looking guys.
But sites like this upset the balance of normal life. We see it all the time, woman saying what a confidence boost sites like this have given them… how they can now pick and choose. It is why so many find it difficult to go back to traditional dating in the vanilla world…. no tit shots and all of a sudden the interest and attention fades away.
So anyway, back to the theory. The new guy (still overrating his attractiveness) thinks he’s a 8-9, hits on a 5 (thinking he’s punching well below his weight and so is on to a sure thing) and gets knocked back, as she thinks she is at least an 8 and worthy of a 9-10.
And there ya’ have it.

That did cross my mind, generally.
I would add that i do go upto 11 but would expect people to think i was exaggerating. |

Sounds like I need to start overrating my looks and head out to the real world then! I've never been over confident looks wise, time to go hypnotise myself |
