Is anyone on dating apps? Going outside to meet people during the day? At night?

I’ve been trying to meet people at events. It’s difficult, I’m managing to meet and talk to a few foids but nobody seems to see me in a romantic or sexual way (unsurprisingly). No sexual view for my face. And nobody really keeps in touch with me long term, also not surprising since they have hundreds of other guys at their fingertips with dating apps. At least I can have some friendly interactions.

The failure is difficult to handle. I think it’s only a matter of time until I sink into another depression and isolate myself for another few years. Although at 30+ I cannot do this too many more times if I don’t want to die alone. But I feel it coming. Each disappointing interaction just chips away that much more at my ability to live a normal life and have a normal self-value. All because of freaking millimeters of bone, women won’t give me a damn chance.

The upside is that I’m learning to talk to them and it’s getting easier. Sometimes I think maybe I won’t die alone, or that I’ll be able to raise kids. But then another awkward interaction happens, or I’ll catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and just lose all hope, and think I was stupid to try in the first place.

I think there is hope, even if just a little, for all of us. I support any and all of you who are out there trying, hit me up if you ever need support or want to talk about it.
 
Not the dating apps but IRL it's pointless, I've gone through amusement parks, places like museums, conventions, jack shit for me, "just go outside bruh, tinder ain't real life bra":soy:
 
Im gonna be trying all month on vacation - dating apps, in person, everything
 
I don’t have money to go out to bars and shit. I feel like that’s the most common place to try to meet women. Dating apps I get nothing

Yeah that advice alone is garbage. Real life has the advantage for us that women can’t avoid us like they can on tinder (and that’s why they love tinder) but if they want the privilege of going outside, they’ll have to put up with a few awkward approaches by guys like us.
 
Nope I stopped trying after going out to language exchanges at bars.

There are random events here and there you could try going to. Fairs for example. There are activities there you can do. Some charge admission fees or for food but it’s worth it imo. Somehow bars end up being so expensive.

What’s that?? I’m guessing you meet up with people who speak a language you are trying to learn? How did it go for you? How many times did you go?

Pretty much . I failed , made some foid friends but they never show romantic interest.
I went maybe 15 times it felt like I did it for a few months.
 
I'm trying to deflower 18 year old autistic virgin zoomer pussy at age 31.
 
No I've stopped trying and will never will. I don't want to destroy what little self respect I've left
 
Im losing weight and fixing my teeth in hopes of ascending in china next year.
Slant eyes are addicted to white dick. You're guaranteed to get pussy.

Nice, traveling anywhere? Vacation seems like a nice time to try. Make sure to enjoy yourself too, in case you experience a lot of rejection, just make sure to take time to make the most of the trip

Sorry man that sounds rough. Do you keep in touch with them still? I saw a bunch of posts on here saying “Lifefuel for xxcels “ of different nationalities, along with an Instagram post of a couple with the guy from that nationality, and it would say in the comments they met on a language app. So I downloaded a few but it’s hard to keep up at it and also, I think you need to be a voicemogger to have success on those.

Where do you find the language exchanges?

Idk, I feel like it’s mostly couples that go to things like that. But it’s worth a try I guess. I need to find things to do that don’t require a lot of money

Nice, man, I really need to get on fixing my fucking teeth. I guess the first step is seeing a general dentist?

Same here, a little older myself but yeah
No I've stopped trying and will never will. I don't want to destroy what little self respect I've left
I hear that and I don’t judge anyone who’s stopped trying. I can only try for brief periods before it just becomes too soul crushing for me and I need to stop. I’m in one of those periods now, let’s see how long I can drag it out for.

There are a lot of couples but also some friend groups. Are there friends you could go with? If not, might need to go alone and try to join into someone’s group or meet people there. It’s very hard and I struggle immensely with it myself. But I think it’s doable.
 
How would people feel if I made these “trying threads” more regularly? To check in on those of us who are trying or want to?

I went on vacation last year and had some guy from one of those task apps touch up the photos (very light), like slightly improving canthal tilt and eye narrowing and slightly making teh face look more angled, it's hard to tell the difference without the photos side to side, and still no real matches other than fucking 42 year old obese women with kids and hideous ghetto monstrosities.

I do think if I managed to get my weight down and worked out a bit I might be able to slay 4s but at this point that's a solid 6-8 months of hard work.

Also should note I usually use the premium versions of apps when I try them so I get unlimited swipes etc, doesn't help much. On Tinder I'll put my profile location in the Phillipines and Thailand and I gut the buggiest of asian women, trending older, more late 30s than 20s.

I stopped trying a while ago, after trying my luck both in my school and Tinder some years back I just gave up. I'm also terrible at approaching people to make small talk unless I know them, especially foids so going out to meet random folks in open spaces like that is a no-no for me.

I tried and got nothing in return so I stopped
reminder: chads and normies dont have to try
 
I joined a hiking group and did different kinds of volunteer work just to meet new people. It's the same as anywhere, all the women naturally flock towards the chads and I was pretty much invisible to women. But I did make a few friends so overall I still consider that a good experience.
Tried pretty much every known dating app with good pictures and a bio and there simply was no interest in me apart from bots and scammers.

What type of events do you attend?
 
I have soft looksmaxxed (leanmaxxed, stylemaxxed, beardmaxxed, tanmaxxed) as far as I can probably be arsed but I haven't bothered trying yet since doing so, this time around. A lot of it was just to lift me out of depression. Besides, I'm a broke ass neet.

No literally rotting away
 
I used to, but a man nows when to stop making a fool of himself
 
I have tried previously to no success
I think a big thing for me is I do not drink, I had a coworker offer to meet up for drinks one time, but then I was like how about something else and he just ghosted me
 
No, I don't bother. Why would you do something knowing that you're going to fail anyway, that's retarded.

Yeah I mean you could see dating as a numbers game, at my height I think 90 percent of women will reject me
I could spam tinder and other dating apps cold approaches, but at what point is it just depressing and pathetic, while chad can effortlessly walk up to a stacy and fuck or have a long term relationship.
 
I turned wizard and have given up all hope but it was kinda recently. I used to be on all the dating apps and go to some social events.
All for nothing ofc.

Thing is, even if we were to acsend. That whore will leave quite fast. Lets say we get half a year with her. I'll have some really good experiences, kissing, having sex etc.

Then all of that will be gone, and ill probably never get it again. And if I happen to get lucky again ill be old and the women will be old.
Im a wizard now, been looking for love for 15 years.
If I got lucky now and had to spend another 15 years afterwards in inceldom... Was it really worth it?
You dont really miss what you didnt have in the first place... So maby its for the better if we never acsend.

I dont think id go out alive from a breakup tbh.... After all these Lonely years.. you finally get to see the light...And its taken away from you so fast.
Id blow my head of :cryfeels: :feelsrope:

You way more resilient that me tbh. I can't imagine being 30+, constantly being rejected, no foids showing interest in me and having no sex life(Even though I'm 99% sure its going to be me in a decades time). All I can say brocel, you still gotta try even if that means betabuxxing, I know betabuxxing for most incels is cucked, but if you long for intimacy(star fish sex) and "love", betabuxxing IS the only option. No female will love you for you. We have to accept that fact. I commend you on trying, eventually you'll succeed and maybe, just maybe you can live a normal life, have children, watch them grow up then when you're are on your death bed, you get surrounded by your family and die a peaceful death. I long for that but at the same time not everyone is meant to win ya know. So just do what you feel is right and don't get disappointed when you realise the outcome of your situation. Godspeed brocel :feelsYall:
 
optimism and hope, top kek!
 
I was permabanned for saying that .is doesn't try anymore.

You’d get permabanned for being volcel in 2017-2020 for not trying. the culture changed

Yeah that is a big thing, especially in your 20s. I at least got to socialise a lot back then because I had always been a big drinker.

I think if I got drunk I would say the n word and start talking about the blackpill lol

no

its over for me 28+ its over

gg go next life
 
I stopped trying anything, I know it's already over
 
Not on dating apps, too soul crushing for me.

I tried in real life last year and almost succeeded two times. A femoid at my job liked me (I made a post about it in the bunker) and I got a waitress’ number. Unfortunately, the text conversation died, because she stopped replying.

I’m on nofap now and not trying. I have no motivation atm.

I gotta try these. My voice is shit though… I’m assuming these have a lot of speaking practice? How have they been for you?

That’s good that you tried touching up photos, I’ve always wanted to try it but I think at this point I’m just done with apps. They’re so soul crushingly depressing that I can’t use them with any regularity.
Shit, even in SEA huh. Feminism has gone too far.
I haven’t had a conversation with a foid in 7 years, excluding teachers or nurses.
Do you like talking with them (teachers and nurses)?
"yOu WiLl FiNd ThAt SpEcIaL sOmEoNe"
Meh. Doubt it. The “special someone” (too lazy to do the alternating caps and lowercase) only really exists for the top 5%. Fuck man the things I would do for a cute K-pop gf though.
I stopped trying a while ago, after trying my luck both in my school and Tinder some years back I just gave up. I'm also terrible at approaching people to make small talk unless I know them, especially foids so going out to meet random folks in open spaces like that is a no-no for me.
I’m also terrible at it. So far I’ve made a few friends in the area and I am just practicing talking to them. I don’t have a romantic interest in them which helps a lot. I don’t know man. There are times I think the practice will pay off but taking that step to approach people is fuckin hard and there’s no way to really practice that…
I tried and got nothing in return so I stopped
reminder: chads and normies dont have to try
Same. I only got disappointment and anger. And yes, I know.
No not really.
Ic. Would you in the future?
Good call
Thanks.
 
I gotta try these. My voice is shit though… I’m assuming these have a lot of speaking practice? How have they been for you?
mostly just text, voice calls have been few and awkward with tism. could get a voice call easily though
 
I don't try anymore, I don't have the willpower left, only hate.
 
I joined a hiking group and did different kinds of volunteer work just to meet new people. It's the same as anywhere, all the women naturally flock towards the chads and I was pretty much invisible to women. But I did make a few friends so overall I still consider that a good experience.

Yeah, I fuckin hate the dynamic of foids flocking to Chad. We need to end hypergamy. I’m glad you got friends out of it. Are you still in touch with the friends? Same with dating apps, I hate the excitement of getting a match only to get messaged a link to someone’s Instagram or onlyfans and then instantly unmatched.
Actually pretty based trusty paperclip, I am trying but ffs I keep getting turned down no matter how many warm approaches I make or I get cucked by some white dude taller than me(obviously). They don't immediately turn me down though, it's more of a "Yeah I'd like to hang out sometime" but surprise surprise they're always extremely busy
Thanks. Yeah it’s fucking brutal, I hate when I’m trying my best to have a conversation and then some tall white dude with decades of validation and support behind his every move strolls in.
Honestly I just feel like giving up at this point because it feels so repetitive, a never ending story;
> I meet foid
> I get to know foid
> I try set up a date with foid
> Foid passively declines by becoming the most busiest person on the planet
> Repeat
I saw your thread today. Good on you for trying. But yeah it is fucking hard and repetitive as hell.
What type of events do you attend?
Fairs mostly. Just whatever random shit is happening nearby.
I have soft looksmaxxed (leanmaxxed, stylemaxxed, beardmaxxed, tanmaxxed) as far as I can probably be arsed but I haven't bothered trying yet since doing so, this time around. A lot of it was just to lift me out of depression. Besides, I'm a broke ass neet.
That’s good that it was to lift you out of depression, I hope you accomplished that or at least some improvement. I’m working on soft looksmaxxing but it’s hard to find the energy, I can kind of feel myself slipping down again.
 
I have tried previously to no success
I think a big thing for me is I do not drink, I had a coworker offer to meet up for drinks one time, but then I was like how about something else and he just ghosted me
That sucks man, but it’s true, so much of “going out” or hanging out in adult life is centered around alcohol. I do drink but I don’t love it. Although it helps a lot with social anxiety. Did you suggest something else specific? I find people will ghost me sometimes if I don’t do that. But then it’s just a matter of if I care enough to follow up, which is 50/50.
I turned wizard and have given up all hope but it was kinda recently. I used to be on all the dating apps and go to some social events.

This is a good point. Handling rejection is hard enough, a breakup just seems like it’d be brutal. I don’t know man. A part of me really does want a relationship and shit, despite knowing how shitty the modern female is.
