OLD getting lots of of first dates but no one wants a second one !

[Rejectthetossers]

Have been OLD for six months (usual POF,Tinder & Bumble) I tend to get quite a lot of 'interest' and lots of first dates but no one ever wants to have a second date with me ...

For context my profile pictures are all taken within the last six months and are unfiltered (although I have obviously picked the most flattering) I do find it easy to get some online 'banter' going and although I admit to only showing my 'best side' I dont try and pretend to be anyone I'm not, so where am I going wrong ? I'm a happy,chatty friendly 50 year old and have been told I'm great company but 'there's no spark'
My only conclusion is that I must be such a disappointment in real life ?

Any advice would be very much appreciated

The dating thread on here is wonderful for advice OP.

Do you look like you in your photos? My photos are not flattering, deliberately. One is a post work head to waist photo, another is a morning head shot without make up and the third is a full length photo in a casual dress. No photoshop, no filters.

I agree with salty sally I use pics that aren’t great on purpose.

@crimsonlake just send them the first message, hi how’s your day etc.
