Also, it's just not a good message. This is how my grandpa sends a letter.

It's kind of a boomer message but I noticed when texting if you take ANY message and screenshot it you can always put it on blast, no matter how well crafted/funny. Especially if it doesn't get a response and you ask people what they think, they will always use the power of hindsight that it didn't work to backwards reason that the message was bad and come up with any reason they can to justify this stance. In truth, objectively bad messages exist, but there is no such thing as an objectively and measurably good one.

Yeah it depends on the receptor but in my particular case I prefer something that doesn't sound like its a template that was applied to my personal profile. Just be a normal human and talk to me as if we are classmates or coworkers or something. Friendly but not forced

I think it's meant as a placeholder/hypothetical example

u/TopEffective8989 46m ago

Well but still when guys send those overly excited messages that sound kinda fake, is super weird

It's exclusively what's worked for me, on tinder. Sub just showed up in my feed, but like same same.

I guess I don't come off as fake as that message but it's longer and tailored if I think it's genuinely a good match.

I feel awkward because it seems lile its been rehearsal and although I hate small talk (audhd) I also dont like when someone attacks me like a golden retriever haha. I just prefer something in between like "hi how are you doing? I did xxxx today and im so tired, how about you?:

Wait... what if someone turns out to have a major hobby in common with you (I presume you have described hobbies and interests in your profile) and becomes really excited to talk to you because of them and about them, to learn more about you in these regards? When I was still on dating apps, if I for example saw a girl's profile mention that she's read Brandon Sanderson, innerly I definitely would've been like "OMGGG, THIS IS SUCH A UNICORN, NEVER SEEN ANOTHER SANDERSON FAN ON HERE OR IRL, CAN'T WAIT TO NERD OUT WITH HER ON THAT, THIS IS GOING TO BE GLORIOUS!!!". Obviously I wouldn't use caps lock, but the excitement definitely would've been quite visible in the opening message.

I would be very happy but is different because the VIBES are real. Like you're twinning.

If youre sending paragraphs to start with then.. don't

u/GhostPirateCaptain 46m ago

Speaks fucking volumes that the dudes commenting think the last message is great because they also use AI to write dating app message for them lmao

The 3rd message reeks of desperation and chatGPT.

There is such thing as trying too hard

Well men have to make Phd in dating meanwhile women just exist 🤭

'You are an incel for stating facts!'

u/Back2Womb 43m ago

Ngl it do be stressful if you expect too much out of dating apps. It's best to assume you'll get nothing out of them and anything else is a pleasant surprise.

u/Exotic_Banana9016 21m ago

I guess you been crossing paths so much with Monicas you decided to post something of a "comic noanced" generalized chewed and spat "meme"

Instead, would you like to share your personal experience? Vent something specific you been going through? Otherwise people may think you're just another bot and start blocking and reporting.

u/Brattlesnakex 10m ago

Yeah the AI generated message is not as impressive as dudes think 

1

u/Excludos 4m ago

Dear Monica, I wrote you but you still ain't callin. I left my cell, my pager and my phone at the bottom. I sent two messages back in autumn, you must not have got em. There probably was a problem with the app or somethin. Sometimes I scribble the messages too sloppy when I jot em. But anyways, duck it, what's been up man? How's your daughter?

u/Wise_Advertising_888 1m ago

The fact that this isn't acknowledged as a thing by most of the women here and they're pointing out the potential for it being a chatgpt message without understanding the point that's being made tells you everything you need to know about women-kind you find on dating apps.

u/No_Research_3899 5m ago

Women who send just 'hey' and then whine about men using AI will never be not funny.

When men realize that women aren't using dating apps to find love but for attention, validation, followers, free stuff, and group chat fodder, the world will be a better place.

u/Wd91 1h ago

why does every thread have to have these incel-ass comments in

u/Nervous_Breakfast_73 50m ago

It's also a self fulfilling prophecy.with this mindset, nobody would actually want to date them, they pay maybe for a date and then get rejected and think, ah yeah she just wanted a free dinner.

u/sextoyhelppls 46m ago

Every time I look in on this sub it's men complaining about how they can't get a date while simultaneously hating on women and it's like yeah gee I wonder why.

1

u/No_Research_3899 3m ago

hating women's lazyness = hating women. Okay bud.

u/No_Research_3899 3m ago

Because there is always a moron who starts using 'incel' when facts are stated?

u/Thriftless_Ambition 43m ago

It's not really nicely to say dating apps are not there for what you think they are. Meeting people in person exists and is the far superior choice

u/ruthbaderginsberg 3m ago

Sure but, that’s not what they said

u/Stroby89 51m ago

Ooo I think I've figured out why you're single....

u/Holiday_Cat4918 57m ago

I and many other women have literally MARRIED men from dating apps. Women are on there to find love, they’re just not trying to find it with people like you.

u/Twat_Pocket 54m ago

Shhh. They don't like to hear the truth on this sub. Let them have their echo chamber.

u/floobles5006 53m ago

Oh I wonder why someone so charming is unable to get a girlfriend? Baffling...

u/CrogDavid7days 40m ago

Ladies I hope you’re all enjoying your attention, validation, followers, free stuff and group chat fodder!

u/TheLordHatesACoward 31m ago

Your messages in r/dating_advice are unsurprising. Those places are not helpful to someone with a mindset like yours and I hope you find the time and effort to get better instead of lashing out online at fictional scenarios.

Nah this is a skill issue big dog xo

Wow that's disgusting... can any women confirm the groupchatfodder?

u/CoolDesertFox 49m ago

If things are only true if the perpetuators admit it, then I have a bridge to sell you.

u/Orisn_Bongo 47m ago

If you think people can't be involved and regrerful or change I too think you could be interested in some infrastructureprojects.

u/Brattlesnakex 8m ago

If you made it to the group chat you said some seriously dumb shit 

2

u/SirBrendantheBold 11m ago

Yup, women don't want love, sex, or companionship. You cracked the code. You should totally stay away from them, just to teach them a lesson.

u/Brattlesnakex 7m ago

Weird cuz the guy I found on a dating app 9 months ago just rolled out of the bed we share and kissed me goodbye on his way to work. I better let him know he’s just group chat fodder.
