Getting a date is extremely tough, and getting a long-term relationship is pretty much impossible

Nope. Idc how funny you are, the average joe cannot walk up to 10 women and get 9 of them to go on a date with them.

Welcome to a world where we all stare at our phones and are fed idealistic images of the opposite sex.

Now, that said, you don't have to be #1 out of 100,000. You just have to make one person feel special in a way no one can make them feel.

Don't force it, though, because you can't. Go out, meet people, be as real as you can. It won't happen here telling us anything or moping about it.

I'm a 43 year old man, with a dad-bod, a masters degree in human resource education, making 21.45 an hour as a 2nd year electrician apprentice, my 5K PR is only 16:59, and I ran the 1600 in 4:40 in high school, and I have no problem finding women to go out with.

Smile, be confident, develop yourself in other areas, and even if you're only somewhat attractive, you'll find someone.

Jesus, people, it isn't rocket surgery.

That’s because that’s not how you get dates with people. Ridiculous that my 19 year old self knows more about dating than some of the middle aged men on this website.

Learned helplessness is such a sad human behavior.

Every person out there has different tastes, different likes/dislikes, different values, heck different sexual compatibility in bed, etc.

People don’t just line up on a purely linear competitive scale and decide whom to pair up with based on that

I used to think like Jamin too believe it or not (ie going after & achieving the LetsRun trifecta would solve all my problems and allow me to smash with the barista girl at the coffee shop…remember the LR forum thread about “I have a crush on the girl at the coffee shop”)???. Then I became wiser

Live your life with courage. Stop trying to over comprehend situations. Its all about energy.

Be joyful and have an intense passion for something with a meaningful purpose .

And work towards it. That will be your greatest leverage.

Because that's what life is.

And then when you have a strong passion for something and appreciates life,

that addictive life energy will attract high quality male and female into your life.

People that focus only on looks are shallow, no matter how attractive they look outside.

Be happy when you get rejected because you are more than what they believed.

Keep moving on with the most positive vibe no matter what and you will

keep finding women you deserve.

To increase your chances of meeting more women, know that Commonality is a big factor. Join a community

or find something where you can meet people with similar interests both online and offline.

While I don’t think the op is correct, I know for sure you are not. 90%? That number is way too high.

Maybe you are just trying to make a point to OP but 90% is just ridiculous.

Nope. If you can show you have a good personality and make for good company, and then have enough confidence you’ll score a date 90%+ of the time. The age old sentiment “if you make them laugh hard enough, they’ll close their eyes” definitely applies. Acting like women only care about social status and height is an incel mindset and is ironically a huge reason why incels can’t get dates.

That's blue pill mindset - not reality with attractive women. If the woman is unattractive, overweight, etc, then just about any guy that doesn't look like Frankenstein, at least has a minimum wage job & owns a set of wheels can get dates with these types of women.

With attractive women (7s, 8s, 9s & 10s) it's a completely different story. It's discussed in detail with an attractive women interviewed by "Wheat Waffles:"

Wtf

Like why swipe right on someone you find unattractive?

For the rest, If you match - she swiped for a reason. Always be closing.

^ This mindset is why you're an incel, you're so caught up in it that you even seek out youtube videos that you think justify why you're an incel. You just don't get it.

YOu must be old or old and married.

If you're past the age of say 24 roughly theyre are NO SINGLE WOMEN. They literally all have a bf or multiple bfs or they have f*** buddies. That's what's going on thesedays. Now, unless you're a 10/10 chad then yeah they are "single" for you. But for the normal folks out there dating is very difficult.

I'm guessing you are old and have a friendly face.

Women (in the UK) do not stop and talk to random men and they certainly don't do it when out for a run especially on trails. If anything women are scared when they see a man running towards them.

I am young, tall, fit (obviously) and reasonably good looking. Women do not stop me when I am out running. When I am running along trails people get scared when they hear me approaching. The only people who show me any courtesy are old men and women.

Ok did you get that out of your system?

Now carry on.

Lol this thread is funny. My mate earns £4000 a week. He has 3 apartments bought. He is fit, doesn't drink or smoke, no kids and no baggage. He is very good looking used to be a model. He has been single for the last 10 years and every time he has a date the woman ghosts or says they're not compatible.

I've worked for 2 years in my life and I've not had a job for 4 years. I have zero savings, live at my mums, no car license, also no kids, don't drink/smoke and I'm super fit. I have a lot success with women. Had a 7 year relationship and currently in a 4 year one. ​

The difference is I've learned how to attract women and what turns them off.

He's a nice guy but he told me he talked about his sales and asked her what car she drives. Who asks what car you drive on a date? It just shows you're too money orientated like you want to know how wealthy they are by their car. I saw he asked a woman on tinder (his first message) if that was her real hair. She replied "What a bizzare fukin question". I asked him why he wrote that and he said "Women like a bit of cockyness". He doesn't understand that you don't act cocky right off the bat before getting to know someone. If you act weird you attract weirdos.

He also posts on Facebook how negative his date was so any future women will see that and get put off.

I met my wife on a cabin trip with friends. I made an effort to talk a lot to her because I found her incredibly attractive. She happened to find me attractive and enjoyed talking to me too.

Mutual Attraction + Conversational Connection = Romantic Relationship

The reality is you need both of those. If not simply move on until you do.

Hold the phone. We are supposed to listen to a 19 year old about relationships?

This changes my response to your claim about 90% success rates. Maybe that is how it works in high school now though.

Just because his name is jamin, it doesn't mean your advice has to parody Bob Marley.

This stuff is literally so simple. Live your life, achieve things where you care about what you're doing (making money, taking on responsibility, going it on your own, or intense hobbies, etc)... then you go out and meet people. Whether it's through tinder or through friends, through going out to a bar, chatting someone up at a music show etc.

Then when you meet a girl where you like her vibe/style, you make a move.
