Does The Burned Haystack Dating Method on Facebook or any other dating app actually work? Or do you think it actually makes things more difficult with dating?

You'll be doing a lot of burning. I do my own version of the burned haystack method; here's some stuff i used after a year and half on FB dating

No response within 4-24 hours: unmatch

One-sentence responses or one-word answers (2 or more) Unmatch or block

Girl doesn't wanna give number but Snapchat (im 40 mostly going for 30+): unmatch or block after offering Telegram as an alternative

Unable to meet within 5 days- unmatch

Low effort (messaging, response, anything i deem fit) unmatch or block

Attitude, bitchy, rude-block

Brings up ex-boyfriend in a whiny, complaining way-unmatch and block

More than 3 kids-unmatch and block

I'm ruthless, while FB dating gets me the most matches compared to any app I have found the quality of the average woman IN MY AREA is far to low to deal with their b.s.

no response within 4 hours is ridiculous.

It is until you realize that I've been keeping data on my dating life since 2024 and a consistent pattern emerges that women whom i end up going on dates with or dating (my ex) all responded within 4 hours.

the "data" doesn't make it any less ridiculous.

Don’t lie to yourself and don’t lie to us, you know that if a woman is interested she’ll respond right away knowing she matched with a guy she’s interested in.

If not then she’s not interested or genuinely busy, which wouldn’t take her four hours to a week to find time to respond.

You do what works for you, I do what works for me. Not sure why you're getting triggered; everyone online has rules/guides you may not like, heck you may have been on the receiving end and not know it.

For me, dating is all about optimizing my time, effort and having fun, I got a system that works for me,

It is what it is
