Is it just me, or is online dating like this for everyone?
I don’t think I’m ugly (at least I hope not 😅). I’m not a supermodel, but I’d say I’m decent-looking.
I’m on one (FB) dating app, but hardly any men message me. When they do, it’s usually just a “hi,” “hello,” or a simple nudge. I always reply with something friendly like, “Hey, how are you?” or a similar response.
Out of maybe 10 matches, only one will reply back, and even then it’s usually just, “I’m good, and you?” It feels more like a formality than an actual conversation starter. I’ll respond, but then the conversation dies right there.
Is this just the reality of online dating these days, or am I doing something wrong?
I’d love to hear if others are having the same experience.
