  1. A small price to pay to say stop the virus from spreading. This is how it is for now, It'll get better with time. We're not in control here so we need to be patient and keep trying hard. We improve our mental health and our values/views on life so that girls may find them interesting and may want to talk to us a bit more later.

  2. It's incredibly frustrating I don't want porn to be my reality but everything that is happening this year is leading to isolation because of this stupid virus. I planned to be more outgoing in March but then we all went into lockdown which led to relapses. And now again it's the same it's almost the end of the year and not much has changed. Remote working is the new reality, people are using zoom and other video apps for talking. Real life events and conferences are online only. People are just not going out as much. One girl i'm talking to told me that she does not even want to go out to places like the pub right now and that she just stays at home. You go to the pub you have to socially distance and they ask you for personal details in case there is an outbreak and you need to be contacted. It's for safety of course but it also takes all the fun out of going out.

    An all virtual life eventually leads right back to porn. Watching girls in youtube videos, video calls, social media, and talking over IM but not meeting just makes you highly stimulated and you need to release. If you cant meet people in real life because of covid then its back to PMO....

  3. That's still a choice you can make. Either to go to PMO or find another way. To me, PMO is not an option,religiously speaking and as a habit? It sucks ass. It drains energy , wastes time and ends up making you objectify women and think that they're only tits and ass with a snack of a face. Just talk to the girl,then. Make sure she has fun while chatting with you and maybe even voice call with her to let her know that you're really there. You're blaming COVID-19 for everything and yet, you're not doing everything there is to do to try and not masturbate it up a bit and nut all over the place. It's your choice,mate. Your life.

  4. It might be negative but its also fact if there was no covid we would not need to have such a conversation because circumstances would be different. I had a big holiday planned for this year it could have been an opportunity to meet new people but because of covid it got cancelled. There was also a lot of events in the calendar but again because of covid they have all been cancelled. I am also trying to find work which would obviously allow me to meet new people and make friends in real life. But because of covid we have the worst recession in our lifetime, with the highest ever unemployment and companies who are furloughing their workers and not hiring new ones because of uncertainty. Covid has made everyone scared to meet because nobody wants to catch the virus. I have seen neighbours die of covid i'm not even joking and i suspect i had it a few months ago. I could go on and on but you get it. Without covid maybe i would have a job and new friends in real life. Maybe i would be in a relationship instead of stuck at home relapsing because of lockdown. But we will never know because covid changed everyones reality.

  6. Could be a lie could be the truth. She has a kid already anyhow and we live in different cities so even if we could meet it would be complicated. I prefer to talk to more than one girl for reasons like this. You just don't know what you don't know.

    I know there’s ways to get dates/hookups during covid but I still think most of us are better off working on looks/finances so we can do better once the lockdown finally comes to an end
     
  8. Dating apps are honestly so dumb.

    If you're just a free user, you probably won't get noticed. There are so many more guys on there than women and unless you pay money for 'boosts' or whatever the add-on is to get noticed higher up in the stack, chances are you won't get many matches (as a guy).
     
  9. @superninjared Please read No More Mr. Nice Guy by Dr. Robert Glover as soon as possible, Good Sir and Brother.

    Women don't "feel" unapproachable. That only exists in your mind. If you want women in your life, one or more, you have to fight for it. Sorry man, it's the only way.

    Here's how to meet girls during COVID. It's this simple: while playfully, dramatically emphasizing your adherence to social distancing guidelines (I even wave at them from across the street lol):

    1) Me: Hi, how are you today?
    2) Girl: *stares at the ground and walks away*

    3) Me: Hi, how are you today?
    4) Girl: *stares at the ground and walks away*

    5) Me: Hi, how are you today?
    6) Girl: *stares at the ground and walks away*

    7) Me: Hi, how are you today?
    8) Girl: Hi, I'm doing well, you?

    Please don't forget that women are genetically programmed (like you) to f-ck under all dangerous global circumstances.

  10. Guys are sex driven girls are wired differently. Even if they do wan't to have sex they keep their true intentions hidden so that they don't come off as an easy slut that sleeps around. This is very obvious on online dating and these girls are the same girls you would meet in real life. They complain about too many guys being "F*** Boys". And if you show your true intentions and they think that all you want is sex. Then you are eliminated and they don't want to talk to you.

    "#1 prerequisite is always financial security, using their beauty as nothing more than a currency to acquire the things their intelligence and occupation cannot provide."

    I love that a lot.
    Spot on.

    I agree. It should be renamed meeting site. There is flawed expectation that both parties are in it to find the love of their life but in reality it's more of a business meeting where two people try to find out if the other person is offering something that they don't have.

  14. POF is a joke they should just admit that they are a cheap knock off of Only Fans. The girls don't want to meet they just want to get an ego boost from guys looking at them on cam. And I have never seen so many fake profiles on a dating app in my life. You get a random message from someone then the account is deleted. One girl even had a profile and their location was to that of a prison! You cant get any more fake than that so what they have inmates making fake profiles for entertainment?

    It's safe to say the era of dating sites is dead! It's now hijacked by spammers, hookers and girls seeking 'arrangements'. It's now a platform for scumbags and scammers basically.

    Having said that, I truly believe the era of love itself is over and I feel sorry for young people today.
    Pretty girls now are conditioned to view their beauty as a currency and 'acquire' things through relationships. Guys perceive relationships as a means of status, specifically seeking the best looking girl they can find and accommodating their personally to suit hers, in turn suppressing masculinity. Men thus become less attractive to girls which only fuels the girls need to reach for his pockets to supplement for the lack of attraction they feel. Guys have become seat warmers and girls are always looking for something better...$$$.

    How do we remedy this? We dont. We instead turn the tables, whereby the girl is the seat warmer. How is this done? Make money your high priority and love, your low. Watch them come swarming. Just dont forget the prenup.

    I would avoid them, they can be very triggering. I always feel worse after visiting one.

    Not with dating websites but with dating apps i have experience with. If you're a free user then things are pretty much rigged against you, should you desire the full benefits then you have to pay considerable sums of money. Why would i want to pay that much for something so unimportant like that when my finances are so tight? No thanks. And don't even get me started with the fake profiles and the real profiles which belongs to either genuinely crazy (not the good kind) or dangerous people.

    Dating sites are waste of time. I tried one of the free ones long time ago and it is just bad. People response when they are in the mood. Same on Facebook, some users created dating-groups for singles. Also there: I gave it a try and wrote to the one or other woman and guess what: no response. So I gave up these dating-portals, because it is no use. The best way to date is to meet her or him in real life and not to text her/him.
