This is what I mean, I came across a video where it gets stipulated that now, more than ever, we need to be 'digitally attractive' through our texts as online dating apps and constant texting is on the rise. If you cannot send a text that shows somewhat of your personality, the other person is going to lose interest. But, I guess what's also important here is if the person is already invested/interested so what/how you say it could be irrelevant.

Is not having enough knowledge on how to text ruining your chances in dating?

I've noticed a lot of guys stating the lack of positive outcomes/successes through online dating has affected their overall confidence when it comes to approaching and meeting women in real life. Does anyone resonate with this?

For those who are currently actively dating what would you say are the main setbacks that you have encountered when it comes to casually dating and getting dates?

You're clearly able to stay optimistic and I get a feeling by reading your post you are an attractive person. I can understand the frustration you must feel when you reach most social standards but seem to be failing on the looks side of things, fortunately, it only seems that way, I am not denying your reality in any way as I have seen evidence of looks playing a part in the dating game, but if we go deeper into this subject there is a big difference between attractive and attraction, the ability to spark attraction in a woman is caused by behaviour rather then the way a male face is shaped, therefore if you can learn how to harness your qualities and display them, this is what will cause a woman to choose you as a partner

He didn't respect you enough to give you a reason for a month before he decided to tell you he didn't want to be with you and he found a girlfriend? Clearly he must have been seeing other women at the same time to be able to build up a connection with someone. Ghosting clearly depicts a person as not a priority, and possibly just an option during that time they saw someone. Your sister is right to respond to this situation. I would be mindful of this one.

This is great

I understand this. It can be extremely daunting approaching a woman we're attracted to. I think we tend to focus on the outcome, making it a high risk exercise

Hi guys, I have been doing a lot of reading on the subject of dating and I am very interested to know other people's opinions on this. What would you say is the most difficult part of meeting someone new or finding a partner in the modern age?

Definitely a good sign

She's definitely thought about you on a romantic level. Sometimes we can confuse our feelings when we're close to someone of the opposite gender, but it definitely seems like she could be interested in crossing that boundary with you and becoming romantically involved. The only way you're going to know for sure is if you directly ask her about it, or, take the leap and ask her out on a date!
