"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.

Can't help noticing that Tinder has gone from marginally useful to completely unusable in the last couple of months. At a guess, I'd say the bots outnumber the real profiles 5:1 in my area.

It actually wouldn't be a huge problem - if you could tell the bots from the real profiles. Amusingly, it's not that the scammers have suddenly become more sophisticated - it's that the vast majority of women on Tinder have become so lazy and so unimaginative that they're impossible to distinguish from bots.

Quite an achievement ladies, bravo.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I'm not on Tinder, but fwiw the latest thing on craigslist is for bots to re-post ads that were once real to re-use them in different cities.

Facebook is full of fake profiles with two pics of some random hooker with a bunch of links to a porn or web cam site. I have a lot of moron guy facebook friends who keep adding these fake profiles as friends. When I look at the pics, hundred of guys will have commented, all trying to hit on the bot.

Half the messages I received on OKcupid were from scammers and trannies pretending to be straight single females.

Speaking of trannies. I saw one recently who used her profile to take the piss out of SJWs and the perpetually offended - playful, funny, and intelligent - better than 99% of the "real" female profiles I've seen. Otherwise their profiles tend to be bloody awful (just like the real thing, lol).

say, its not common for both this online dating and tinder to use fake profiles and send msg just to fake numbers and to amke people pay for they use? if I remember right most of then have the premium features and they force you to have one so you can comunicate with others, so a bot send a msg to force you to pay a premium is the normal to happen?

I see this stuff too, makes you wonder what is going through their minds. Or if the need to find some p*ssy is just that strong. And they say testosterone levels are dropping?
