General question... Why don't people message or reply on dating apps? It's getting really annoying. I'm trying to date and all... But its going nowhere! :/

I mean it in the sense that... They say hi first. I say hi back. They ask me how my week is going. I say it's good and ask them the same back.

And frankly, wouldn't you rather have somebody ghost on you than say something like you ugly or not if you're the last person on earth? Ghosting is kinder.

Aziz Ansari has this book - modern love. Heard something about it having best openers that can elicit you a response. He researched it with an NYU professor. Same as your case he was curious over silence in online dating and why women do respond . Read it :). Story behind the photo is a good one!

@S& -any interesting/have been successful in the past opener suggestions?

R/tinder for some good lines

Thanks A1! I usually ask about about something on their profile. I really like your suggestion.

Need advice. Very Shy guy and girl, met a while back for a side hustle both like each other a LOT, relationship has progressed in other areas but not in the physical realm, primarily because neither officially asked the other out. Guy is a very rough around edges, asked for a date by saying ‘anytime you need breakfast or lunch, let me know’. I am an independent gal and didn’t like the way it came across. I really want to take this forward but am out of ideas on how to make a date happen.

Have a crush on my co-worker. He asked me out to go rock climbing one-on-one after we were texting for a while and I acted awkwardly when we went because I didn’t know if it was a date (nothing was explicitly said). Now I’m stuck in this weird limbo state where things have fizzled out but I’m re-reading texts and think he might’ve actually had a crush too and I pushed him away. Ambiguity sucks.

Question that could belong here or in the Relationships bowl:

How do women prefer to be turned down if the guy they’re pursuing is not interested. I know men have the capacity to deal with rejection poorly, and I’m not suggesting otherwise. But in my anecdotal experience , women take the gentle “no thanks, not interested” poorly.
