Why do tinder girls keep blocking me?

[lanba]

Just happened for the third time this week we match and as soon as I send the first message she blocks me. Actually I didn't even message one of the three, we matched and when I went to check her profile half an hour later she had already blocked me.

I'm doing what the pick up guides are telling me but the girl never gives me a real chance and I want to know why. How can I pick up someone who is dead set on not talking to me? I can't. So where are the girls who will talk? It doesn't look like I'm going to find one.

Some of them might just be doing mad swipes to the right and then taking their pick of matches and blocking the rest.

I must have pressed the heart button hundreds of times I don't even bother looking at my phone anymore except to check I'm still hitting the button.

Maybe your opening messages suck. What did you send?

Some of them might just be doing mad swipes to the right and then taking their pick of matches and blocking the rest.

This is what I do, it saves time.

Are you a woman? I thought this was a male strategy?

This week I had another 2 matches disappear within a couple of hours of appearing. I did not message them, I usually wait for the next day, but by then they've already blocked me so I can't send a message.

They block you because they dont find you attractive.

You're not that attractive. Do you think they'd keep blocking Channing Tatum? Hell to the no.

Case closed.

Tinder strike rates are low. Very low. Flake potential is very high, even before you talk to them.
Girls will download and delete tinder a lot faster than men will. Some of them might have simply deleted the app because too many guys asked them if they were DTF. Maybe they accidentally swiped right, then re-evaluated when checking the rest of your photos.

Tinder takes a fair bit of time and commitment. If you put the same amount of energy into real world game you will probably have better results.

Keep it going on the side if you like, but don't rely on it exclusively.

Even HB/UG1-5s are prone to block you or won't match if you're not at least about a M6. Slvts on tinder exhibit strong lookism. I think only goodlooking guys willing to date down get much results on tinder.

I'm not on tinder anymore, and when I first used it - I just thought it was a waste of time and uninstalled it.

I did not know it would keep my account active, and during the snow storms this past winter - I reinstalled it on my phone. Only to find out about 100 women had said yes to me why I had it uninstalled.

So I had about 100 matches. Messaged every one of them that day (i was literally trapped inside so any conversation would have been good.)... My matches went from like 100, to 70 in about a hour.

I think a lot of women are on Tinder because their friends are. The 3 women I met off Tinder all said all their friends were on there. I think it's a little trendy thing like Snapchat or Instagram to most women.

And I've observed groups of women sitting around on their cell phones, like "look what this creep just said to me."

And all a creep is is a guy she's not attracted to hitting on her (take a guy who IS attractive to her saying the same thing and she'll think it's charming.)

So that's essentially your answer. They block guys who they think are creeps. You're a creep to them. Message or None.

But...

It doesn't phase me at all. And it shouldn't bother you.

I had pretty decent luck on Tinder when I joined last fall, but as it's become more mainstream, it's not the same anymore. The last few months.. the quality of my matches has gone down drastically and the girls are the flakiest of any online dating contraption. They literally can't wait to meet you one minute, then poof.. you just suddenly never hear from them again. Never ceases to amaze me.

Most see it as cheap entertainment, taking screen shots of the worst of the worst profiles for a laugh with their girlfriends. I've had several forget they even made plans with me, within like 48 hrs. Factor in that they only match with guys they like, so their stream of messages is from people they already find attractive, means the next better dude is always a swipe away.

I'm going back to POF, have much better luck over there..
