How does a guy like this get a girl like that?

Yes quite right. I’m trying to reflect the “younger” society that grew up with social media and the changes that has made on our younger females. The Instagram famous, influencers types, and the people who idolise them.
I couldn’t agree more with what you said. But that is maturity speaking. I learned that through the years making some mistakes, but relationships wise it’s not just looks it’s the whole package. But I am assuming we probably grew up in more valued times. Can you imagine being a teenager now. Lol.

Yes it’s certainly my experiences.

It's happened - the holy trinity of Psycho Sonny, McstylisT, and NZXT30, vying to show us how poorly they think of women. Separately they're formiddable but together ... unstoppable.
Holy ass, I would watch the heckers out of this film.

Think you are adding 2 and 2 and getting 7 here.
I just have a personal experience over a few years. The behaviour with a certain type of young lady was very much the same.
I think you are portraying my observations as insults somewhere. I am only trying to display the mindset and attitudes of the younger women today is very different. My era and I’m sure yours was very different.
There must be a place for them, or people wouldn’t be using them, it’s probably a case of “that was then, this is now.”
I can’t imagine ever having to make use them when I was “in the life”, say from 25 to 45, as all my adult life I’d had confidence to spare.
I’d walk into a bar, party, wedding reception, whatever, and without annoying, upsetting, or frightening a woman, I’d stay outside her comfort zone, lazily assess the situation, wait for an opening, and say something innocuous.
I could gauge in seconds what reaction I was getting, and if she smiled and relaxed, I’d run with it, if she gave me the stink eye, I’d smile, accept it, and back off, it was hardly rocket science.
As I said, things are different now, no one appears to have time to meet the old fashioned way, if you approach a woman now, and say something which no one could construe as suggestive, you’d probably get a visit from the sexually threatening police squad.
"a bit of beef stew" is the most inspired phrase I think I have ever read.

I knew a woman who kept her past dates numbers of tinder etc to use as 'free' taxi rides home,despite being engaged!
Kind of depends on the site, tinder is probably still quite hook up oriented.
Did read some stats recently - some double digit % of people on it are already in relationships, inc a double digit % of married men. Guys swipe right on something like 60-70% of women on average (perhaps skewed by the guys who swipe right as many times as they can in some mass attempt to find a random hook up), girls swipe right only circa 5% profiles they're shown on average.
I did have quite a bit of success on the site my single friend back in the day supposedly had a better raito - party because you need a friend to write your profile description for you... cuts out the weirdos for a start.
There were two peirods where I was on it - one time got a male firend to write the profile, he did make it quite laddish, "banter" etc.. and the girls I ended up meeting were perhaps less fussed about anything serious. The other time it was a female friend from work who wrote the profile, having a girl write the profile seemed to get the girls on the site who were trying to find a partner etc.. interested.
(Ultimately - nothing long term came of any of it, did date some very nice girls though)

Wanna see those profiles now ...

My passions are shopping, prosecco and being georgous. If you're under 6'5" don't talk to me. I won't message first. Not looking for hookups. No facial hair. IDK why tinder says I'm 36, I'm really 48. Music is my life . Don't ask me on a date if you're broke. If you can't handle me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best. Sushi and pumpkin spiced lattes ❤. No bum stuff on first date. Being a single mum is hard or so I'm told.

A bit harsh, sure, it can be cured with a course of antibiotic jabs, but it’s best not to get it in the first place.
I'm still waiting for Deep Thought to decode the meaning of "eh lads I said I liked magazines, what's that? getting me jam salad everywhere"

Isn't that the same bloke that took a woman out on a date in a transit van to KFC?
And she received the full Tony Williams experience?

You really don't want to be learning fourms, they are evil and should be expunged from your mind.
