No, my friend meets girls using FB dating but yeah there is scams too. The women I talked to on Bumble were too serious for me, they ask tons of questions like whats my goal in life, whats my ethnicity (some ran away after I told them I am arab), what’s my job, where did I go during my last vacation, etc personal psychological analysis questions, I gave up lol

So you gave up because they were trying to get to know you? That’s what they’re there for.

I wouldn’t be mad if a woman was asking questions, trying to get to know me. Hell, I haven’t even got that far lol. That’s kinda the point of dating profiles

Honestly, deep inside me I feel like I don’t want to date. I am not happy enough with my life now.

Then it’s understandable you don’t want to get asked questions. Maybe someday you will be ready again.

Interesting. I felt I wasted my money on those dating websites because when I messaged women I got no reply. Also few women would message me first. These are not the results I was expecting. But good for you since there were women who showed interest in you unlike my sorry ass.

I never paid for dating apps but don’t let dating bring you down. You can be happy without dating. Many people in my family died single and happy, they took care and lived with their parents etc I know a guy who is now over 60y.o., he never dated and doesn’t want to. He’s a genius like Einstein for me, he worked for Microsoft and now works for the government in a Europeean country, he’s always smiling and making jokes with me and my friend, sometimes he brought us to cinema and restaurants and paid for us. He’s 60y.o. but has a mind of a 20-30y.o. always travelling with friends etc He makes over 500 000€ yearly.

Yes, some men are happy they are not dating because they already have a woman. An unrelated uncle died in pain unmarried. He left his house to another family member. When I visited the house, you could see all the accumulated possessions from books, tv’s, dvd’s and the what not junk he collected over his life time. I don’t want to go down like that. It’s scary.

Well if you really want to date, keep trying, maybe it will work one day, but don’t let it make you feel bad. Nothing wrong with being single. I don’t feel bad for being single, I didn’t date since I got sz really.

If I date, it will be for a Chinese language site only where I have had more success. North American or English speaking dating sites are awful for me. Preferrably I be with a woman who I can communicate with in our native language.

My sister and I have recently talking about how we enjoy being single. We each have our own space, we can go wherever we want, do whatever we want, whenever we want. As much as I would love a partner, would I want to give that independence up? I guess it would take a very special partner. And at this stage in my life, maybe I don’t get married or live with someone. We’ll see.
My therapist is pushing me to get out and date. I told him I would next year. I have some things I need to do/have planned before I am available to do that.

I found my match on eHarmony but used plenty and hated every single one even eharmony. You just have to date people until you find someone you click with. It doesn’t matter which site you use.

I’m on Bumble right now, been on it for over a month, I like it for the most part.
It’s been a mixed bag of an experience because the first thing I put in my profile is that I have schizophrenia.
A few women are cool with it, but I don’t get a lot of swipes. I’m torn on whether or not I should remove schizophrenia from my profile. Part of me wants to be up front and honest about it and another part wants to meet people first and let them get to know the real me before telling them. I’m confused and don’t know what to do

It does make life simple and gives you total freedom to do what you want when you want.
On the other hand…well all I have is my hand

I don’t know if it’s appropriate to talk about here, but there are several toy options for men… you know, in case you’re tired of your hand and want to spice things up a bit.
