The Truth about Online Dating

So I've completely given up on online dating.

Here's the truth about online dating:

Stage 1:  Guys start off by being very selective and sending thoughtful messages.  No woman responds.  Guys get fed up and lash out "Why didn't you message me back?!"  Woman who thought about replying to the guy's message gets turned off and doesn't respond.

Stage 2: Guys then send a thousand well-thought, copy-n-pasted messages to women hoping for companionship (sex).  No woman responds.

Stage 3: Guys finally give up and send pics of flexing and their...ahem...little guys...and women become repulsed by consistent requests for No Strings Attached sex and ultimately the world of online dating.

HOWEVER!!

Stage 4:  Guys receive a message from a random woman whom they missed, they meet up, and magic happens.

Now for the woman's perspective.

Women receive thousands of messages daily.  Women must filter through and discard dis-qualifiers:  Pics of nudiness, copy-n-pasted messages, weirdos, deadbeats, mama's boys, basement dwellers, and sex fiends.

Now, this leaves about 5% of men whom are possible suitors.  (Now you know this blog is relevant and scientific because there's a statistic!)  However, this 3% of these possible suitors have gotten fed up, sent a nasty message, and turned into a weirdo, thus effectively casting themselves into the woman's digital garbage.  What happens with the rest of the suitors?  The woman responds and waits for the guy to either A) dazzle her with his charm or B) put his foot in his mouth and turn her off.

If a woman can help me with this blog's accuracy, I'm all ears.

Post-script:

Here's the most recent message I left in a young lady's inbox:

Me:  

So people think you're a lesbian? Why's that? I mean, I love lesbians so I think we'd get along lol.


Yes, my sense of humor doesn't translate well online.  This would work better face-to-face.  The young lady would know I'm teasing.  Sadly, humor (along with sarcasm) doesn't translate online well.

Yeah I'm not expecting you to answer back either. I've given up on online dating, and now I use it to have a laugh.

Maybe she'll appreciate the honesty and reply back...hmmm....or maybe dogs will teach me German...it's all possible!!

Nothing against you by the way, so feel free to delete this and chalk this message up on the "Weird-o!!" board.

Good luck finding whomever complements you,
