Just read this whole thread lol (Skipped a few pages) Some major random confessions here and I would say a prime example of threads going off topic. Pretty shocked at people contacting employers and such, can see why people are dropping off the radar each time I log back on here.
The article has a lot of truth in it, I must have sent messages to at least 100 women online and I have gotten less than 15 responses. I'm not trying to chat to 9s or 10s either. Just going after women who I find interesting. I make a point NOT to message the hotties as I know I'm wasting my time. So based on my personal experience I must be a 5 or 6 as the 7s and 8s ignore me for the most part but the pursuit of women out of my league continues
Maybe I am below a 5, but I am focused on myself and live life on my own terms which is unlike most of my friends. Priorities for me are making money and buying a house. I'm not chasing any girl, far from it.
I don't think there is a hard and fast rule that if you are average, date average people or if you are poor, date poor people or whatever. If the woman looks average yet feels like a 9 she is perfectly entitled to want to have a 9 for a man, if a man is average yet has decent prospects in life and has a lot going for him and feels like a 10 he can decide to look for women who are a 10. Who knows maybe the average person might meet a person who looks beyond the physical.
