If you're looking for a life partner, remember that very few women are still going to be hot once they hit middle age. You probably won't be either. You're going to spend the majority of your life with someone not attractive, so what they look like now is not that important.


Man that couldnt be any more wrong.

Im attractive enough to get interest from girls way above my actual league...but once we meet in person they realize that Im pretty mediocre looking. I dont try to hide what I actually look like. If anything, Id say Im not photogenic at all and look better in person. But still.


Are you getting these people through online dating sites/apps, mutual friends, or what?

Because unless it's completely blind, I can't imagine their physical impression of you changes dramatically before and after the first date. It's much more likely that in person your personality/charm isn't enough to get a second date, whereas you might find it easier over text and stuff.


Online dating. Theyre not blind dates at all haha. But Im the opposite actually. I find myself way more charming than via text/messaging.


It's fine to think that, but your theory here doesn't line up with the story you told us. And I'm willing to bet your perception of yourself is likely wrong. Most peoples are.

But I think along the lines of what Balrog is saying, the fact that you're getting these dates in the first place means that the 95% confidence interval of your attractiveness based on your photo(s) on your online dating profile plus the personality you give off through your texts/messages passes the bar for trying to date. If you were really more charming in person, you're suggesting that you're so much uglier in person that it's outside even the low end of expectations AND it's also enough to outweigh your personality and additional charm.

That just doesn't seem likely, unless your photos are incredibly misleading (which, if they are you should change them, unless you like just getting first dates). My guess is that you aren't as charming in person as you think and it's possible that something about what you consider your charm is turning people off. After all, acting stereotypically "suave" can make someone feel like they are being charming while not really landing.

You can focus on the girls if you want but I think it's missing the point. You're competing with other men. If there were no other men you could have any girl you wanted. So when she doesn't call back it's because she has a date w/ someone else. That's why it's funny when the guys ITT tell you to keep trying. Ofc they would prefer you don't compete with them for more attainable girls.
