M/F? As a straight woman, I’ve been told that the odds are good but the goods are odd. Very true.

Terrible for men unless you’re good looking. Tall (6+) is generally a plus everywhere. Fashionable will help since there are a lot of nerds that couldn’t care less about their looks.

Yeah, I’d agree... some dudes take it too far and don’t know how to dress for the occasion.

🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Hahaha fair. I'm M

I sure hope that fashion sense is not in the top 3 or even top 5 must haves!

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc

I recently went from having an incredibly open and intimate long-term relationship with a person I was certain I was going to marry… to now getting asked “what’s your favorite color” on a first date. Godddd I hate dating sometimes

Mid-30s M looking for a cute Nigerian lady to chat with.

So I just recently got into dating after a break up 3 months ago. I joined some dating apps and have been getting quite a few matches. I’ve never dated anyone like to a point of going on traditional dates. Basically, I have no clue what to do on a date once i have one planned. Like I’ve been on a few and it’s been just talking but I guess I have no clue what to do after. I’m probably just rambling at this point but basically I need advice on actual dates and how to feel it out and what to do. Ty

Say I had a “friend” who gained 15 Covid lbs but is still on dating apps with old pics. Is that considered catfishing? She’s not overweight, but not fit anymore. Still good looking...she suspects. Is it best to update the pics? Or get on a BBW dating app? Definite fear of rejection at meeting. Thank God I’m asking for a friend because this shits embarrassing to type.
