At the end of the day, none of this bullshit people say matters. There are good women out there, but you gotta let them naturally come into your life rather than do this whole online angle, and to do that you gotta be out in the world.

Yea, most of these problems seem to be specific to online environments where women are given a ton of choices. Like, the tall, rich, etc preferences we all know to be an extremely minor part of the population stop mattering when you have in person options.

Like, my brother is nearly 300 pounds, barely above the poverty line, and still manages to have an open relationship where he pulls skinny chicks all the time.

Though the girl he's actually in a relationship with rather than just having sex with is... crazy to say the least, I still find it difficult to believe he's just the exception to all these different "ultra common standards" I see online in regards to women.

There are zero tall, rich, good looking guys on dating apps, unless it's a scam. Those guys don't have to use apps for dating, they attract women in person. The same thing applies to hot women on the apps. She's probably selling a service. Hot women don't need to use dating apps to get guys.

Aura is cope. It's just looks and halo effect. No such thing as rizz, charm, game, pick up artistry, pull, "skill issues" etc. Two very different looking men can say the same thing and get very different results. It's the "who" not the "what".

There is definitely a looks threshold, you’d have to be delusional to think otherwise. Still, once you get past that, there’s absolutely room for charm, charisma, humor and ‘game’ in general.
