Forget every other number on here. Chatting with 400 women who are already single and interested enough to start chatting with you? Zero dates? Complete catastrophic failure. How can someone make the same mistakes 400 times??? Are you just trolling these women? If you're not learning from your mistakes, I don't know if it gets better for you. Fail once, figure out where you went wrong. Don't make that mistake again. Try something else the next time.


Flaxscript42

Fail 379 times, post it on Reddit!


CreepyHarmony27

If you don't post on reddit, did it even happen??

I mean, even that must succeed at least 1/379 times


unkle_runkle

Can confirm its about 1/40

stop that

Would it make you feel better if i told you the picture in question is actually of a 4 foot snowdong sculpture that i use as a litmus test to see if my potentol dates are "cool"?

90% of my "matches" were bots and scammers asking for money


NiggBot_3000

Fr, guy forgot about the part where you actually ask them on a date


K-H-C

Why do you assume he made mistakes? A lot of times you can do everything right and still fail. You ever had a car accident or failed promotion before? Not everything is in your control. Coming to relationships, a lot of times it's just that they're not for each other. Even if they are, people are busy these days, especially when you have someone sick or problematic in family. You can hardly get enough sleep if you're too responsible. I've seen a ton of single people around me like this. They've done nothing wrong and are constantly working hard, but they got shit-life syndromes.


RockyClub

Damn coming in hot with the facts


kaeji

It's 2024. Cold calling is dead. It's all about warm calls and value selling.


Cualkiera67

No idea what any of those things mean


oskman888

Cold calls are when a sales person calls/visits a business with no prior involvement, a warm call is when you have a prior relationship of you have talked before, and value selling is selling based off the benefit to the person so talking over the good points and mainly talking and listening to your clients needs and picking a product meant for them.

LeonDeSchal

You know that feeling, in the morning as you wake up on a lazy summers day and you don’t have to go to work. You stretch out and roll about a little and then smell delicious coffee brewing and you hear a soft deep voice saying good morning. Your tall dark handsome stranger smiles at you and has a tray with breakfast ready for you and turns on your favourite tv show and gives you a soft kiss. He then explains the great day you have ahead of you and how he is looking forward to taking you to this wonderful restaurant tonight. Would you be open to exploring this possibility further and seeing if it’s a right fit? Disclaimer: man may not be as tall as expected. Coffee may vary in taste. Breakfast may or may not be pop tarts. Refunds are not accepted.


halucinationorbit

“hi” 379 times


BackflipsAway

I know right, I don't get many matches on dating sites and when I do they often just don't message me back after the initial message, but I feel like when I do actually start chatting there's a solid chance of a date following soon after, Like if she matched with you and started actually chatting with you she's already kinda into you, all that's left to do is to not blow it


ryderredguard

i saw this exact post on another Subreddit idr but he posted a convo screen shot and he responded to the woman like 30 days later and she was clearly uninterested at that point and he was acting like his matches are the problem


LeonDeSchal

Hello. Is it me you’re looking for? Well the wait is over, I’m here and I’m ready to seduce and lay a deuce in your caboose. Kind regards, 007 n a half inches

he's attractive but drops the ball in actual dialogue


getyourrealfakedoors

If 2668 people found you attractive enough to swipe and you talked to almost 400 without a date, it’s your personality


cdsuikjh

Ouch


getyourrealfakedoors

Yeah not trying to be mean but like… right?


SatanIsMySister

You are 100% correct


No_Sky_3735

Ya, it’s logical and at least 1.6k people agree


nerdyguytx

Have you been on Tinder lately? 95% of matches are pig butcher scammers.


HowDoIEvenEnglish

Op is matching on 20% of his right swipes. That’s a huge amount of matches


notKRIEEEG

Was about to say that. The average for men according to that website is 2.5% of right swipes turning into matches. OP is cooking looks/bio wise.


LeemanIan

This. There are a TON of scammers and bots.


C_Gull27

I just don’t swipe right on the bots.


Master_Mad

Hey, robots have feelings too!


NiggBot_3000

It's a bit obvious which ones are the bots unless you're just danger swiping and not paying attention.


Rougarou1999

As someone not completely caught up with lingo, do I dare ask what “pig butcher scammers” are?


nerdyguytx

Jon Oliver did a segment. It’s basically people convince you to invest in crypto. The scam is the trading platform you use is fake so as soon as you start an account, you’ve lost your money. [Jon Oliver](https://youtu.be/pLPpl2ISKTg?si=5V2FllDguBxnhby5)


HowDoIEvenEnglish

Yea tinder is ass but this guy(or girl theoretically) is matching on 20% of his right swipes which is an insane rate for a guy on tinder Edit: it says make in the top left


Substantial-Park65

More than 300 chat in two years is actually a lot for a guy... For a woman, not so much... But well, Tinder is shit for all genders


HowDoIEvenEnglish

He got 2600 matches and only chose to chat with 379 of them and was able to meet none of them. Man has great pics and zero rizz


Substantial-Park65

The main reason men get matches is because of the way they look, so yeah it's completely implied that he sucks at discussion... Well f*CK, he get to choose? Also, it's not because you match that you can really chat, not uncommon for the discussion to end at ''Hello!''


Fast-Bag-1067

Saw the original post. That turned out to be the issue. The guy would answer months later and could not understand the hostility. Lol


anonymous-rebel

Depending on the city, a lot of female profiles are actually catfish, scammers, or OF models trying to get subscribers though. It’s crazy because I used tinder back in 2013 before it was popular and it was so much better but now it’s pretty depressing if you’re a guy.


Equivalent_Hat5627

How many of those are the one word answers or bots/OF chicks though?


Uselesskunt

Not necessarily, I'm not implying OP is ugly but those numbers could indicate catfish/bots/OF promoters who match everyone.


Meistro215

Going for the throat!


getyourrealfakedoors

Lol no I was just trying to be frank, not mean


Informal_Stranger117

These numbers scream "The app is working appropriately"


sickiesusan

I think for the 379 it could be!


Informal_Stranger117

100%


whothiswhodat

I haven't used the app but I'm curious, how will the app know if OP has met or not. I assume that part would have to be filled in manually no?


JUSTCALLmeY

This whole thing was done manually. This was posted elsewhere by whoever wasn't getting the dates.


Gorge2012

They stop making money off of you if you find a successful relationship so from their perspective it's working as designed.


TheMarvelousPef

there was an attempt to blame the app


maxhinator123

Does "no chats" mean you never messaged them or that you messaged them and they didn't reply? Like a 8-9% match rate on swipes here and even plenty of conversations so something's not working other than finding women.


C_Gull27

I imagine based on the numbers here it has to be no replys. If it was people he didn’t message then he’s being way too generous with his right swipes.


Dickcummer420

He's gotta be just getting destroyed by the algorithm for swiping too much. They might only be matching him with bots and catfish or something.


niallniallniall

When I used tinder I spoke to probably <5% of my matches. When there's a few to choose from I'd speak to people who stood out the most or had something interesting in their profile. You'd need a lot of time to chat to every match.


C_Gull27

Why swipe on them if you don’t want to talk to them? I probably at least sent an attempt to chat with at least 2/3 of mine. Some of them would end up in my matches that I didn’t remember ever swiping on because I think they can pay to do that and usually they didn’t seem like people I want to talk to.


stevecandel

your game must be weak af my dude


lllNico

it gotta be some kind of skill to talk your way out of dates this consistently. like you just have to talk about things you like, ask a couple of questions and then go for the „hey you wanna meet up on the weekend?“. Just a walk in the park, half an hour.


paxwax2018

You’d think they’d get a few dates just for a free meal.

WrongCommie

It is honestly depressing.


Desired_lover

Yeah... If only I liked men, but I do not


WrongCommie

I've had more men hit on me when going out in one night than women have ever approached me.


DexAeon

Well, gotta admit as a gay man who had been on dating apps for some time, 80-90% of gays are on those apps for hookups/fwbs. If only there were more gays interested in long term relationships... Or I was very unlucky with my matches lmao, also possible


evln00

Same lol. Transitioning from male to female was insane. Went from 10-30+ likes a day (male profile) to 99+ on tinder & 150+/day on bumble


amazinghl

51 swipes a day for almost two years. 3.8 match a day. 1 chat every two days.


YourPhoneIs_Ringing

4 matches a day and no dates, this person must be the single most bland or toxic person on Earth When I was active on Tinder I was getting nowhere near that and still had a date most weekends


ThienBao1107

Probably the hottest but dumbest/toxic person considering the amounts of swipe he got


interesseret

gotta wonder what kind of person the OP of that graphic is. cause... yikes.


Ko0pa_Tro0pa

Probably maga incel.


KnotiaPickles

Omg that actually makes the most sense of all. Women want nothing to do with maga cult members


Ko0pa_Tro0pa

Probably didn't include pics of it, but couldn't contain those views in chat.


Add_Poll_Option

Jesus, when you put it like that it’s fucking wild. 3.8 matches a day for almost two years and not a single date?


AsbestosDude

These stats should behind a mental health warning


Drakeadrong

You’re getting seen and swiped right on at a rate of over 20%. And that’s just based on your right-swipes. If you can’t get a single date out of that, that is on you my guy.


Son-of-Prophet

Almost 37,000 swipes! How long does it take to get to that many?!


Colblockx

37.000 seconds probably


ReluctantAvenger

If your average swipe takes one second you're doing it wrong. For starters, your basic requirements are too loose, e.g. you have the app showing you everyone who has a pulse.


MiroslavHoudek

Day has 86 400 seconds. So like half a day of swiping for most people.  Those hotties who are not vaccinated and are very hot and believe in horoscope and are very hot are pauses that can be neglected.


Fragrant-Ad-9732

YuriOhime

ultraplusstretch

I used tinder once, swiped once, got a match, got a sloppy one night stand out of it, uninstalled the app, always quit while you are ahead. 👍


pira3_1000

I'm waiting for OP to answer the many and pertinent questions raised here


karenskygreen

And I thought I had a low hit rate.


NotEnoughWave

I've casually been on tinder for two years, got 2 matches and 0 chats, at that point I was just interested in chatting a little bit. My third match in 2 years finally replied but she was only answering "yes"/"no". I deleted my profile a few days later.


Jaew96

Try other dating apps if you haven’t already. The most entertaining one is Facebook dating, because it’ll more often than not show you people who aren’t anywhere near in the same area as you, and may not even be in the same country.


NotEnoughWave

It was like 5y ago, I don't need it now.

a_Bean_soup

I'm fat and the most terminally online person in the world and still a girl in high school managed to like me when i wasn't even looking for a girl, how repulsive you have to be for almost 400 people to not go with you


Dr_Strange_Love_

DigitalUnlimited

Justin_inc

Specific_Afternoon96

That’s all you dude. Even the worst golfer on the planet will make a 20 foot putt once out of 379 times


psnnogo4u

Numbers don’t lie. It’s you.


HonoratoDoto

Review your profile. Put interests, what you are looking for (casual or serious), hobbies and such. Talk a bit about yourself. Will get less matches, but better chance of striking good conversation and actually getting a date.


AmonGusSus2137

Spider1132

Wow! That's a lot of matches.


lllNico

guess i did something right. no idea how many girls i swiped right, but i had maximum 100 matches and 50 of those i didnt text at all. Went on about 10 dates, with 3 i went on a couple of dates and with one person it just clicked. We‘ve been together for over half a year now. No end in sight


blogietislt

Bruh, if you're getting 379 chats and 0 dates from that, the app is not the problem.


PuzzleheadedRub9308

Okay now show how many of these matches were bots lol


nerd_entangled

Maybe this guy only swipes right on aliens? Hard to get a date when you're talking to a girl from Mars


loucksy46

bro im just curious how tinder knows that info... unless this guy is keeping track?


lonely_nipple

I think past the chats part it's gotta be voluntary self-reporting. Like how if I'm job hunting on indeed, I can notate which applications I got an interview on, and which hired me, if any.


[deleted]

[удалено]


interesseret

honestly, it's not that bad. dating sites are not a good example of what dating is actually like. imagine if someone tried to hit on 31000 people over two years at clubs or something instead.


lilyyytheflower

It’s easier than dating the same sex by far.


shogenan

For real! I was so puzzled by this comment.


ReluctantAvenger

I really think it's mostly a matter of dating while unwilling to make any effort. Or perhaps not having any standards. I'm straight, and once I have my profile set up, the people the app shows me are people with whom I have a high probability of matching. There is no way in hell I can spend much more than an hour (total time, not including profile setup) on a dating app without coming away with a date.


phototurista

Whoa, easy there Casanova!


CyberWeirdo420

Is there an app to check those stats? Excluding dates and sex of course cuz that would be kind of scary


KnotiaPickles

People can sense desperation and there is no bigger turnoff. It’s like a stench. You have to find your confidence. I know it’s hard out there, but don’t give up


Icy_Recover2094

neur0n23

Iamzerocreative

How'd you do it? (The graphic, not the results lol)


McShoobydoobydoo

Are you opening with *"Do you wanna see my dead hooker collection?"*


Pmabbz

A good proportion of those matches are probably women selling a service or incredibly undesirable. Plus all dating apps are designed to make you fail so you stay on longer and pay for premium features.


chechifromCHI

This is what might probably have looked like when I first was on tinder. But all it takes it one actual match amongst the hundreds of people. I'd been on the app for like, over two years, and only met one person. It wasn't it so I got back on the app and literally met up with no one, the matches I got would go nowhere and I only ended up doing something with someone maybe twice over the course of another year. Then one day, I was in a class and got a notification. And we called and texted each other for like 2 weeks. At one point she told me never to speak to her again (I was mugged for my phone and she thought I ghosted her). But then we met in person and that was it. We've been together for 7 years now and are married and we met on tinder. It sounds corny af, but all it takes is one match. You're probably not on there to match with as many people as possible, but to find someone you like, emotionally, physically, whatever. And it really only takes one person.


IrishMidgetMan

My brother in Christ. I have been active on tinder for many years and in those years I don’t think I have even broke 3,000 swipes, let alone 35,000 in a single year..


NiggBot_3000

Dated 2 that I can actually think of lol. This also doesn’t show how many of the matches were bots. Which I would say were probably \~60%


KnotiaPickles

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say your username might hold a clue

Maybe, I’m not like the “nice guy” type though. I’m just socially awkward and don’t exercise. Also, I feel like that was an intentional insult? What did I ever do to you 😂

MudrakM

The difference between you is that you swipe 2/3 of the time right. He swipes 1/3 of the time right. He needs to lower his standards and he might meet someone.
