Does anyone have any non incel/pua advice/resources at getting better at flirting (or otherwise improving one’s “game”). I recently moved to a new city where I have been trying to meet someone on Hinge, and while I feel like I get a reasonable number of matches I just think I must be really bad at the whole “texting long enough to get her to actually go on a date” phase of these conversations.
I’m also not sure what to reasonably expect in terms of reply rates. In the last month I get about 3 matches a week with people I would like to go on dates with. Of these two people agreed to meet up (although one ultimately stood me up, I’ve never actually had that happen before although I’m guessing that just happens a lot with online dating).
If you're getting around 1 in person date a week you're doing fine, a lot of women on the dating apps are only window shopping and you shouldn't take it personally. Generally speaking more messages before meeting up is not a great use of your time. Hook them quickly, set up a meeting and then don't necessarily ignore them until then but don't force more conversations. Or just whatever is working for you. Don't get invested until you at least see them in person.
