Are dudes expected to carry the conversation on dating apps? Or is it just me?

Generally speaking, if you’re looking for a love connection, and you’re talking to people that don’t participate in the conversation as much as you, then you’re not talking to the right person.

Are extended conversations on dating apps the norm, and is it as painful as it sounds? This is just to determine if there is enough interest to meet in person?

(Sorry for ignorant questions, that’s a world I am not familiar with.)

How do you know if someone likes you in the beginning of dating? I met this guy online who I thought was cute and we went on a few dates. He always texted me right after the date and always initiates another date right after or within a day. He’s been sweet to me (ie when I was packing for a trip, he noticed there’s dirty dishes in the sink and he just started washing them for me) but he never texts in between dates and doesn’t really initiates much physical contact (he reciprocates when I do)

M here. I don’t know what it is genuinely that I’m doing wrong. I get barely matches on dating app; I don’t have the shiny muscles to show off on the apps, a 7 or 8 looks wise, great personality, and can easily to talk to anyone. I don’t know how to take the conversation out of the friendly zone to make a girl realize that I want to be sexual with her. Especially F 🐠s, would love to hear your POV on this as I’m sure you’ve encountered guys like me before. M 🐠s, let me hear your take too.
