Interesting, as a guy on Hinge, I didn't realise, not into pen pals meant they where after an ONS, i see lots of women write this in their prompts,
If I met a woman and kissed her, I'd almost certainly respond and suggest a second date, or politely message saying its not going to work out.
Its his loss, don't give up there are some really good guys on dating apps, but they tend to get drowned out by the sleazebags and Fboys
He may have just got cold feet, it could be for any number of reasons he may have just come out of a long term relationship and needs time to heal, or he's actually in a relationship and wants a bit on the side.
I thought I was having a rough time getting one or two likes a week and maybe the odd date, (I've had 6 in around year) Sadly none where compatible and one lady even lied to me saying she wanted long term, She got me drunk, slept with me then ghosted me, which although hats off to her for being liberated, still hurt me like hell.
Being rejected is painful, but for many guys you might have to put in hundreds of likes to even get one half hearted reply, which is usually wishy washy and fades out after a few messages.
Without sounding arrogant, for my age, I'm quite a catch. I Work in the NHS. I still have a six pack, I don't have a beer gut , no Asperger's or mental illness and I've still got all my hair and an adorable kitten! but recently its like a ghost town on Hinge!
I sometimes wonder if my profile is too good and a lot of women swipe on me assuming I'm not interested as I must be out of their league, or in high demand or that I'm an Fboy looking only for a hookup!
I think a lot of my women friends where under the impression that, as guys, we get a lot of likes and tons of dates, I would say from most of my male friends experience, they'd be lucky to get 1 date a year! They are decent guys with very good jobs. So unless he's a staggeringly good looking alpha male, I doubt he's dating multiple women.
I'm often told, by colleagues and friends, I'm good looking.
There seems to be an impression amoungst the women at work and my gym. That there's are a queue of women beating down my door wanting to date me, it couldn't be further from the truth!
We tread a fine line as men, I think some men, are a bit timid, as we don't want to appear to be a stalker, needy or a sexpest!
