Dabbled with POF on / off since 2012 and I never got anything; no replies, views, likes, nothing. Concluded I'm a one off ugly freak? Least it works for some.
well at least you haven't concluded it was the fault of the app.

Try Bumble.
So easy as they initiate contact with you.
You have the same problems on POF I assume?

I am a million miles away from being good looking, or in a lot of cases in anyway what a woman would call a “catch” these days but other than when in relationships there hasn’t been a week in 18 months where I haven’t had at least one date from either tinder, match, Pof or bumble.

I live in a small area and still managed. On the occasions I travel to a city the phone never stops.

Not bragging, just genuinely wonder

Firstly - no - because I am engaged and deleted them all.

Secondly - no way on earth would I post my dating profile on here anyway.

I would say it’s more about the first message than anything else. Send a funny message and especially if it relevant to their profile or something current in the news they can see it’s specific to them.

I found nearly everyone responded, even if it wa a polite “thanks but no thanks”

Often the one where I thought “she will never be interested” where the ones who were most willing to date if you treated them as people as they were used to messages about their tots and endless dick pics.

If you're as successful as you claim - which sounds like very - you're in the top 20%. You have a very high facial attractiveness. You've probably never heard of the 20/80 rule as you're in the 20%, thus there're no issues for you. For those in the 80% like me, we get nothing on those sites.

Chin up fella.

That’s really not true. I am getting married next year as a result of a date on match. Where I live is very small hence there weren’t any pics on the profile at the time.

The whole week of first messaging was without pics, first time we knew what each other looked like was when we met. Savers precious dates had also been without photos exchanging beforehand

Mmm - I’m going to disagree, respectfully. I’m at the point of 500+ likes I haven’t responded to, and usually get a response when I msg someone. I’m no Brad Pitt at all - so perhaps slightly altering your profile and/or pictures could help.

No kidding?

I vaguely recall he was with someone but can’t for the life of me remember her name.
He was pretty low key about it all, he’s that sort of chap.

Sadie, Sofia or Sally, I think it was? Something like that anyway?
He never mentions it, so it is hard to remember.

This isn’t true though - I lead by and large a very normal life - my one ‘toy’ is my small boat, that’s it.

Tried online dating, self-improvement, the real world, everything, but can't get a date. Never had a girlfriend, got no mates. Whatever.

Rarely go out these days but I make an exception last night because I want affirmation my situation's irrecoverable. I attend a meetup (meetup.com) at a bar in town. I wasn't there long and didn't intend to stay, I just wanted to get the vibe.

Bought a pint costing £5.80, felt like I'd been robbed then I end up standing there invisible as usual. Finish my beer and wander for one last time before leaving. As I'm leaving I notice one woman looking at me scowling, she's definitely looking at me so I walk up to her and she tells me to stop looking at her. She's not happy I looked in her general direction. She tries escalating the situation with a male but I'm quite a big guy myself and her 'protector' laughs it off and pussies out, I start getting negative attention from her female accomplices. Rejected by her male protector she engages with security and I end up getting ejected from the venue for looking at her.

For perspective this was a very ugly pig-nosed woman, sow-like resemblance, fattened for slaughter.
