>Dating apps are tailored to people in the top X% of attractiveness.
They aren't. I'm in the top 1% for income and top 5% for looks. I used to get no matches on tinder. I asked a few female friends to come up with a profile they thought would be more attractive. After I saw what they came up with (I have a boat, I fly first class, I'm in a holiday in Europe) I deleted it and move them to acquaintances.
The type of woman who would find that sort of thing attractive is _not_ the type of woman who I'd want to sleep with let alone have a relationship with.
- slingnow 4y agoTop 5% of looks based on what exactly? Something about your story doesn't add up. I would certainly consider myself NOT in the top %5 of looks, and get plenty of matches. And I'm not looking for trashy women who are only into material things either.
- thrown_22 4y ago> Top 5% of looks based on what exactly? On looking at the average person I see on the street. Do you not have eyes? >and get plenty of matches Matches are the first step, then you have chatting, organizing a date and then a hookup/relationship. The attrition rate is abysmal at every level. It's just not time efficient to use online dating.
- Nimitz14 4y agoA close friend of mine kills it on tinder. He just has pics of himself looking good and smiling. He basically doesn't need to book a place to stay when going on holiday (lol). I would not put him in the top 5% (maybe top 10). Your pics either sucked or you're not as attractive as you think you are. You don't need pics of yourself being rich. Or maybe you're older (he's 27).
- globular-toast 4y agoHe's either far more attractive than you think. Or he's grossly exaggerating his success (like all men). Most likely a bit of both.
