Like most female Okcupid users, she only sees 20% of male users above average attractive.


That's a really silly statistic that gives absolutely nothing useful to work with. What is the point of your comment??

Are you saying the people at your office shouldn't be allowed to have a profile? :P


No, of course not. I was just unprepared for it. It seemed somehow unintentionally intrusive. Haven't come across this person since so now I am wondering if they also post on WP and have seen my thread and got paranoid :lmao:

I simply mean that you are very picky regarding male attractiveness.

But I have said as much myself or do you not understand that this is what is meant by a phrase that someone is way out of one's league?!

Maybe it's good to be picky, that way if she does happen to find you attractive, it means twice as much? :lol:

20%? More like 2% for my age group in my area.
I found only a handful of people somewhat attractive. I need to move.

Could you date someone from California? So many of the hot ones won't consider anyone even slightly overweight, but you are skinny, yes?

They like tanned women don't they? I'm pale and don't tan well, just get tons of freckles.
What type of guys do you consider hot?

lol leafplant and Yuzu... and especially Yuzu, 2%? And that at Looks-wise level only, and yet you wonder why okc isn't working for you? You pick the hottest 2% to date and yet you wonder why they never get back to you?
Do you really think that most women in real life find only 2% of the male population attractive?

My theory about increasing pickiness due to online dating applies to you a lot, Okc had made you abnormally picky as well, you are another addiction victim.

Then leave okc before it increases your hypergamous tendencies to insane levels. You think this is good for you, but it is not.

You may have some sort of point there. OKC lets you see people from all over the world, the kind of people you would normally never come into contact with during your every day life. It is kind of like a difference between shopping on Amazon vs shopping in your local corner shop. The choices are just massive.

Anyway, here's one that I quite liked that would never be interested in me in the million years

It's not a case of online dating addiction. I already left a month ago because I realized there is little point. And the guys I find attractive are not the typical "hotties". It's just that there aren't enough guys that are my type in my area.

Great, now you only want Kevin Costner lookalikes!! This Okc loop effect on women is way faster than I've imagined.

He's a man yet he "Replies very selectively" - that's very rare!! most men are "Green" / replies too often.

I don't find that guy particularly physically attractive. And I'm betting there would be plenty of guys I find attractive who you don't. People have different tastes, don't assume this guy wouldn't be interested, you might be just what he's looking for.
