    I'm 33 and have been out of the dating seen for a few years myself... hasn't this always been the case? Particularly to online dating?

    Can i just say … its not just the men that send those pictures … Some scary women out there as well

    Yes...and most women aren't very good at taking photos of their snatch

    Date creative women who know technology. They haz more beautiful snatchez.


    Surely if she's using photoshop thats blatantly false advertising. Is this a thing now? Fake snatch shots..

    I don't appreciate doctored snatches. I like them au natural and yummy. I was more referring to shot composition and positioning than corrections and enhancements.

    Just work the lighting and angles, and I am happy. Glistening is a bonus.

    But I digress.

    That's not so bad OP. Follow that question up with "Do you take a check?" and that's exactly how I met my first 3 wives. *nods*

    And you broke up with me with a pink slip. Really harsh.

    Ah yes, I remember that weekend......Pebble Beach......*happy sigh*

    There's an 18-hole joke in here somewhere.

    Lot of people quick to get on the defensive here.
    just be patient, veeeeery patient. And don't lower your standards.

    Please show me nice guys! Men in their 30's, at least the ones that I have met, are the horniest breed alive. That's all they think about!

    I'm an honest guy (and I think I'm nice....), and I've been on only 1 date in the past 3 years. That was with someone who lives 150 miles away (yep, I had to look that far just to get a date at all), and she stood me up on the second date. I'm not in my 30's.

    My experience has been that women are far too picky. To be fair, I'm also picky about a few things that are deal-breakers. Specifically, I'm childfree and will only date a woman who is childfree. That may make it difficult to find someone to date, but that doesn't explain why they don't return messages or don't show up even after setting up a date.

    Cutting all the crap talk, cause it seems like there's a lot on here. Good for laughs! But, this is a serious question. OP, I have found that being utterly and brutally honest has always been the best policy for me in my dating life. Being upfront, and just letting your interests know what it is that you're looking for and the things that you are not looking for, helps to save time and hurt feelings on both sides of the relationship. I would just go into a relationship with honesty and let your interests know that honesty is what you expect to receive in return. Good luck! And remember, dating can be fun!

    There aren't any honest men left and dating thus far, hasn't been that fun. Thankfully, I just bought new running shoes, so that I can run faster from the crazies :(

    That front facing camera makes a world of difference in photo composition. True story.

    You all make me laugh so so much. And also quite, quite educational.

    It's nice to know that it is ok to judge someone on their artistic composition of junk pics. I thought that might be considered shallow, but it sounds like it's more a matter of having standards.

    To the OP - have you been going out to meet people or restricting your efforts to online? I've met some nice people in my day-to-day life going to restaurants, coffee shops, bars, pretty much anything that has to do with food. I can't judge if they're 'quality' as I'm not ready to date yet - but they all seem like nice people.

    When a man says he's being "nice", what he's actually saying is "I want to get laid". It's the exact opposite of nice and women can see it a mile off.

    Meeting women online is easy. Read their profiles. If they sound like someone you'd like to meet, send them an interesting message that they will respond to. Base it on something you've learned about them from their profiles.

    Until you meet them it's all nonsense anyway, so don't take it too seriously. I have no idea how many people didn't respond to me, but I went on dates with a lot of really lovely women from online dating.

    I'm fat and balding, you're ripped and handsome. You'll do OK. :drinker:

    There are genuine guys out there. Trust me. Met my husband here on MFP on 2011, and we married 5 months later. Don't lose hope -- there are STILL good guys out there.

    I know quite a few that admit to meeting their other half here on MFP and I know quite a few who have found MFP a distraction to their other half (make of that what you will). So believe it or not you're in the right place for online nonsense.

    Just as a side note: I went with a suggestion to speak to two new people everyday until I met someone I wanted to go out with socially. It worked like a treat and I stopped relying on meeting people online. Good old fashioned conversion worked for me. It's worth a try, as people you meet face to face tend not to show you their junk unless you ask of course. Good luck :)
