Well given you're posting screenshots of them and attempting to flex some plane Jane swipe app women with dead convos I'd argue yes
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
I am so done...

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Only start dating when you are comfortable living by yourself, don’t need a woman to fill the void, all nostalgia about your ex has completely gone and no contact with tiurhas been strictly enforced.
You need to have a mindset that any new woman you may be involved with is a compliment to your life, not the centre of it and that you are prepared to walk away without hesitation if things aren’t working out to your satisfaction.
Have an abundance mindset and be careful of the rebound effect/oneitus initially. The first relationship out of an LTR is always the hardest and it’s easy to regress into a blue pill mindset.
Be prepared for a high rejection rate with women once you re-enter the dating market but keep persisting and work on the things within your control to maximise your effectiveness.
Good luck.

This is supposed to be a place of support for OP. Whether or not I am taking the free hinge account seriously is irrelevant, he needs to know there is life beyond what’s happening here. Keep it positive.
