What kind of scam you encountered?

I met typical nigerian types of love scam, then the pig butchering scam where they introducing those catchy forex or bitcoin trading.

I am also slowly getting used to being single now. Getting emotionally tired from trying dating apps.

Dating app feels very disconnected. Those that I match with r also very cautious when chatting so things slowly die off. Don't feel like they have the intrest in getting to know each other.

Don't know how you guys chat with girls or talk with them. Most I talk to ok je.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. Assuming that u met 15 girls in one event, was it tiring for u when u had to introduce yrself n talk abt yr hobbies 15 times?

It is.

Lol some of your advice don't apply to me coz I'm a girl, not a guy 🤣 Honestly I'm planning to score on the 1st event coz those events are really expensive. The one that I wanted to attend is RM125. I keep asking myself what if I pay that much only to meet up with men who are obese and/ or bald? Or worse, boring? I have these doubts in my head coz u keep telling me to lower my expectations 😅

I went before. Was hopeful but turn out empty handed. One girl sort of like have chemistry but looks like she didn't like me enough.

To score, it's simple. You need to make sure the guy want to exchange numbers with you. Just listen to their stories and don't be a spoil brat. There were some by girls by default I don't even want to know them further from their attitude.

There are few people who attend those speed dating like multiple times already. 8x and still no luck. I attended once and no luck and kinda of didn't like it as you are talking to 15-20 people one shot for like 5 minutes only. Hard to keep track of who is who and what is interesting about the other person. For me 5 minutes is too short to say anything meaningful.

I think 5 mins would be more than enough if the other party happens to be an eye sore or rude lol. I really dunno how ppl can pretend having convos for 5 mins out of politeness when that kinda thing happens

Then speed dating would be suitable for you. It wasn't for me. Cause if the guy/girl speaks for like 4 minutes, not much time left for the other aide. So kinda of hard for other person to judge cause no info given.

I was doing the talking and girls weren't trying to talk or even make an effort.

I appreciate talking for like 2H with the girls. It let me know if they are potential good partners Vs 5 minutes. That's why I turn back to dating apps.

These girls got strategies la. If I'm not wrong, they might have scanned for their "targets" before the speed dating started so they know which guy they should give their 100% n which guy they should give 30%. It's really tiring to give 100% to all 15 guys haha.

Well that's shallow of them. Thank god I found one girl on dating app who is frugal and don't mind a difficult life with me.

Correction: That's called being smart, not shallow. Even you, yourself admitted that it's tiring to talk to 15 girls so what's wrong with conserving energy for the ones that we're attracted to? I'm sure there are people in yr life who have told you to work smart, not work hard.

Because you are judging on appearances. I never judge them on looks or body. I judge them based off how they spend, their life goals.

So don't complain that speed dating made you feel tired.

I give all girls equal chance to be fair to them but yeah if someone only want to look at looks, then thank god I am not attractive or handsome or hot.
