Do men dislike OLD as well

[BlastedPimples]

or do you think they're like kids in a sweetie shop?

I have only been on about 25 dates and I'm not impressed so far.

I wonder if men find it easier and if women make more of an effort / good impression or if it's equally difficult to find someone for them that they like.

After a few weeks I was definitely like a kid in a sweet shop, which actually got in the way a bit as I was looking for a relationship but I started thinking ‘maybe I could just have several girlfriends’. It was easy to get carried away with being in touch with multiple women so I deliberately tried to knock that on the head. The women were all doing the same though so it’s not just a man thing, I actually caught a girl I was seeing messaging another guy on an app while we were on a date so women definitely aren’t just all sweet and innocent victims of OLD.

As a man though I think I did ok because I put a bit of effort into my profile and was not desperate, I seemed to get a decent amount of interest which I know is not necessarily the case for most men.

In the end though I met someone offline but I would definitely do OLD again if necessary, it was fun for a few months.

I'm sure women are not sweet and innocent victims of OLD. What a peculiar thing to say.

My husband said it was depressing (errrr before we met, obvs). Similar to how a lot of women feel about it, I think.
