First off, don't chat for three weeks before a date. That's a terrible idea. You're going to build up a faulty model of who they are and then be jolted when you meet them in real life. Which is exactly what happened here.
Second, to all the people using chat gpt, I don't know how to say this nicely but fucking git gud. What a bunch of sad sacks that can't have a conversation, can't read a wikipedia article, can't even try their honest best.
Is it though? Take five minutes to read about it if it's so ubiquitous. What a sack of shit.
I'm a pretty average guy and I was getting 1d4-1 dates per week just by matching with people and asking them out. You really don't need to do more than be genuine, present, and interested in them.
Also, make sure to follow rule number one of dating: don’t be unattractive.
Yeah lol, this guy says it easy, just get 1 to 4 matches a week. In the year before i deleted my tinder, i got one match. As far as im concerned, if this is what it takes to destroy online dating, im so down.
1d4-1 is 0 to 3. Sorry, not the point.
One factor might be location. I'm in a major city.
