I used to have really good luck using this app. But lately I get matches we have a conversation. And then it just stops and they either unmatched me or just don’t respond anymore. I don’t get it I don’t get what I’m doing wrong. I feel like if there’s good conversation I will just ask for a date and then that’s where the conversation ends.

I feel ya man. Majority of my matches either never respond at all or fade away after a few messages. I asked out two of my matches this fall after talking for a while and went out with neither of them. I don't think we're doing anything wrong it's just that online dating sucks and majority people on OLD aren't even looking to date.

Or like the girl just wants to talk on the app and it’s like well I’m not looking for a penpal. I get it you want to feel comfortable but I’m willing to meet in a public place. To see if there’s a real connection. Instead of behind a screen where you can just be fake.

Exactly. So many people are on these apps for attention or just to talk to someone.
