you call once a week
the 5 inch screeners twit once an hour
chivalry is deado if you start online. either you up you game online to meet random online girls, or you up your game in real life to get to know the girls you life in real life

That's fine, other people can chat them up all they want.
I don't compete for women, I will put in effort with initiating and in other ways, but I don't need that specific woman.
I would like her, but I don't need her.

Less really is more early on. Eventually both of you will end up where youre just around each other all the time eventually anyways, let it transition to that naturally and slowly.

Trying to prove you're the best thing for her never really works.
Its better just to go with the flow.

Besides, you're different if you're not one of the guys who is constantly breathing down her neck at all times.
Where's the excitement with texting? Let's talk about it in person.
Plus, calling is way more masculine and attractive for women, you have to think in real time. Plus, you risk facing rejection in real time as well.

And yes, sometimes you will lose a woman to another man, but that's just life. It happens.

Just another tool which does not stop you from direct approaches or meeting possible dates introduced by your social circle.

I don’t think lots of people have a “social circle” irl other than people they may see at work. We’re plagued.

Nothng has changed. I dont use social media. I go up to girls on the street and ask them out. Still works. I get phone numbers, dates, etc.

This. Most of my friends that have been around longest are former co-workers that I used to spend a ton of time with.

The world has changed indeed. Either evolve with it or don't.

Social media is everywhere.
But I believe physical touch and interaction is still stronger, more fulfilling, then getting to know someone via other ways.

Words, we type to each other, with emojis and so on, Imo. still lack emotion.
Talking to someone face to face, for me, shows more emotion, body language, etc. Even a video chat (2 way video chat!!!! lol) is acceptable.

It's easier today for guys like me.

The sheer amount of stupidity woman have to deal with online makes me look like I'm a fucking master of life even if I'm just being me.

Also, online dating is quite fun when you take it lightly.
Back then it was just muscular men getting it, now even dad bod guys like me are getting lots of it. Even more than I can handle tbh.

I strive to find others not addicted to social media.

It feels like most girls even the ones that arent that pretty get bombarded online and given attention.

When women have such a plethora of men biding for their attention, naturally a lot of them get a blown up sense of self worth. A lot of them then feel that they can be as choosy as they want, being that they aren't beggars.

Dates feel much more hollow with people these days. There are so many poor dynamics at play.
Tinder is for getting your dick wet, nothing more.
If you desire substance, you'll only find it offline. Talk to girls that you encounter in settings or groups that you find matches the values you are looking for. When you talk to her, take notice if she seems intelligent, kind, goal oriented...these are some of the best traits to look for in a prospective long term partner.
