I got 3 potential scammers LoL, with beautiful Hong Kong Modelling look. Conversations lead to Cryptocurrency Investment. They ask for your properties, side income etc etc.

Yeap definately scammers. You learn how to spot them after a while because they all seem to use the same "beautiful Chinese girl model" type pics.

And the ones I've bumped into are always from Hong Kong. laugh.gif

Agree. If you are not good looking/pretty, basically playing dating app is just a waste of time.

I'm not buying that for dating apps. That's a space where "heightened" reality is, not where you and I know what is.

It is just a matter of preference. Your relationship goal is getting laid and casual dating. Other people expectation could be different.

I beg to differ -- no harm trying as long as you play it safe:
- COVID-19 SOP (social distancing, masks on whatnot)
- dating SOP ("if it is too good to be true, it probably isn't." Meet in public places with people around, don't create a situation where the both of you might end up alone and get robbed/scammed/violated)

Dating app isn't for everyone, and every person has their own ways of dating - there is no one-size-fits-all strategy:
- If you're good at texting, it is a good platform to get started and earn yourself a good first impression.
- If you need time to warm up, then dating apps with time limit upon matching is not a good choice for you. Not everyone is comfortable with sharing their private contact information early.
- If you prefer meeting someone right off the bat, then find someone who also shares the same view as you.
- Ghosting/getting ghosted: while unethical, it is very common and it is a good place for you to realise that rejection is normal and you just have to suck it up and move on. It's where you learn to get beaten up inside, stand up and say, "next!" -- this also builds up your confidence if you take it with the right mindset.
- Some are looking for long-term, serious and committed relationship, while some others aren't. Be clear to one another about what you're looking for so you don't end up wasting each other's time. Don't bend your standards/values for someone you find attractive but have different core values with you, I don't think it'll end well.

If you tried and tried, analysed all your failures and realise, "okay, dating app is not a good platform for me because there are too many fakers and I am not good at identifying one", then it's okay to just give it up and look elsewhere. Just because you think it doesn't work for you, does not mean it won't work for others. In this time and age, in our culture where we frown upon strangers walking up to you and flirt, I think it's normal to try all means available to you to increase your chances of finding someone for you.

Lastly, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I personally don't think I'm good looking, but apparently someone found my head banging dance video "graceful" laugh.gif I'm not saying to stop improving yourself and stay sloppy while hoping for a random person to pick you up and accept you as is -- I'm saying to keep improving and keep trying.
You don't like those acne on your face? Try consulting skin specialist/dermatologist.
You don't like your body proportion? Consider changing your diet and adopt a more physically active lifestyle.

I like how in the beginning you talked about how looks don't matter, and then gradually as we approach the end of your point, you begin bringing up points where appearances do matter? Which is which exactly?

Not if you read my previous reply to you though. They're not "all" that matters, but they do matter substantially in dating apps when you're at the mercy of someone evaluating you directly from the face first. It's a design flaw, not that "LMS matters".

Regardless what's your standpoint, look does matter for the first impression. Anyway, lets put aside look and appearance. A lot of people just intent to go there to make some genuine normal friends for potential dating in the future. For me, I went through casual dating phase in dating apps. It usually comes with much infatuation more than genuine friendship. Well, maybe you are still in your 20s as you are still energetic enough to play the ghosted/ghosting game.

Hi, you misunderstood me. Looks matter, let's not kid anyone here. Just like in job interviews, you don't show up with unkempt hair, t-shirt and shorts and expect people to view you equally as others who put in more effort to look more presentable.

What I mean here by "beauty" is equivalent to your definition of "good-looking", which I am assuming you're referring to people who what we call, handsome/beautiful/cute/sexy etc, and they would qualify as eye candy, or someone who earns extra gazes from others in the public for their good looks.

I'm saying, no you don't have to be on that far end of the spectrum, but make sure you like who you are yourself. Be comfortable in your own skin. Put in the effort to present a good self, so that at the end of the day, you know you've done your best. You can't control what others think of you, and if someone has the audacity to call you ugly and reject you, that's on them, not you. Someone else might come along and say they like your quirky coin slot eyes.

2020 and 2021 changed the dating game forever with Rona around. So, I am guessing a lot will use dating app and/or agency to find the One. I too want to jump on the bandwagon. My options are

Lunch Actually: I know this is going to be the MOST expensive and yes, I know there is thread somewhere where that did its review but that is a long time ago. Any changes in 2020 onwards?

Dateworks: So far, this is the only agency I know that offers virtual dating due to Rona. A news article told me that this agency charges around RM200 for it.

Coffee meet bagel: I bought the RM496 (or so) package for 6 months before. Nothing came out of it but I am willing to do that again.

The rest of the app like paktor, tinder, malaysian cupid have too... uh... diverse candidates. My request are narrower than those and CMB seems to be the one that delivers who I want everyday but the overlapping subset of those whom I like and messaged and those who like and messaged me are too small. I have not been using Tinder for a long time because for some odd reason, I got matched with a lot of women from China and these women have more or less the same look like big eyes, fair skin, long hair, red lips and smells like scam.

What is your review on the the dating apps/agencies you are using (if any) and ITS COST?

you dont need to spend a lot of money on matching agencies or subscription cause a lot of times they have their top GIRLS to lure your male thirst in, and also you get limited amount of matches via their so call ''professional consultation''

fuck that shit, it's a scam.
