Men who have 'no luck' on dating sites are facially unattractive full-stop. Those men face societal ostracism. Imagine that - no family or social life, can't hold down jobs, unfavourable treatment. Now imagine being in those shoes.
All that matters is a good face.
I guarantee your profile depicts a loser. Likewise your general demeanour when out and about. THAT is what's unattractive, much more than your face.All that matters is a good face.
Women do not like guys who feel sorry for themselves. They tend to like confident, smart, funny, able to take care of them type guys. Of course a few quid and a big cock might be a bonus.
If you cut out the high school weirdo stuff you might get somewhere.

I have a housemate who's successful on those sites. I've never understood what women find attractive about him since he's got primitive facial features, could say neanderthal-esq. Very thin, malnourished looking guy, and grey around the eyes - I attest that to a terrible diet. But there's nothing about this guy, can't cook, sh*t job, no style, class. He can't even spell in his native English. With that in mind I substituted his profile image for mine and changed nothing else. It wasn't long before women started interacting with this guy, so that disproves your theory. That said providing a guy's facially attractive the 'loser profile' wouldn't matter, if he'd been to jail or committed murder, that wouldn't matter either, so long as he's facially attractive.

Yes but good looking guys are the above in bold because they are good looking. It's a self fulfilling prophecy.

Agreed, in fact it's precisely the point I was trying to make on the Alex Salmond thread, fat ugly guys have a harder time of it. Well duh... When the ugo short fat man chts up a bird with cheeky chat she thinks its creepy or wierd. When the tom hardy lookalike does it its confident flirting.
But, assuming you're not the elephant man then an improved profile, better attitude and pair of baws goes a long way.

If I'm understanding you right all that proves is what you think women like or should like actually isn't what they do like. i.e. what you think isn't attractive, is to them. What you (or I) think is utterly irrelevant, it's what they want that's important.Sir Lord Harold said:

t view on life but if you carry around such a view you'll use it to reinforce why you are failing and it isn't due to your face.technodup said:

Of course it also helps that i'm a cunning linguist.
Seriously though, i think Harold needs some proper guidance or maybe a decent wingman.

Yikes.
This thread used to be quite an amusing collection of dating stores and (no doubt slightly exaggerated) updates of funny encounters, be them good, bad or disastrous... but seems it’s all gone a bit dark and weird in here.

Can we pull it away from these posters please. These people should not imo be partaking in Online Dating, the rejection (that is par for the course) hits them too hard. And clearly affects their mood. These people need to fix THEMSELVES before going looking for someone.

ANYWAY. Back to the light and fluffies I'll add an anecdote
Bumble just "moderated" one of my pics. I could guess why they'd suddenly gotten all weird. The pic was an older one Id had on my profile since the start. Actually gets good comments. But contacted them and asked the question anyway.
Heres the highlights of the reply
"thanks for getting on touch... sorry you feel our moderations has upset you...Bumble was founded with safety in mind....online behaviour can both mirror and predict how people treat each other....
Then the mental part!
"As mass shootings continue to devaste communiites.. gun violence is not in line with our values... we will not allow any photos to be uploaded containing a gun of any kind"
You've probably worked out by now that it was actually a f
king SUPER SOAKER! 
Specifically this one!
Ironically, they will allow guns in your pic if you are in the military or uniformed officer
So I went to a bar. And this bar had an event on (some sponsorship with a drink) they were taking pics for their instagram. And had a table full of props. Silly hats, massive sunglasses, feather boas, a coconut! and this water pistol. The sort of thing, you see at wedding photobooths.
My mates and I, had a group pic taken. I've blurred their faces. It's not a serious picture clearly, but more than a few girls have commented favourably on it. It shows my silly side. Other pics include the obvious sports and obligatory smart suit at a wedding pic
