DATING ADVICE
“Is online dating a waste of time for a low status man?”
The honest answer? It’s not a waste of time if you decide it’s something you genuinely want to try out.
First of all, considering the context of your question, online dating may just be the opportunity you need to meet women who will wholeheartedly accept you regardless of your social and financial status.
That may be hard to believe, but remember that there are a whole lot of different factors that come into play when you find yourself browsing through your options on an online dating app or site.
As a dating coach myself, I put emphasis on the fact that while online dating is an avenue for you to find love, it’s not the ultimate solution. It’s merely a platform that will facilitate your needs and preferences and provide you with options to choose from.
Of course, it’s a given that you won’t find your perfect match right away. Therein lies the thought of you’ll never know unless you try.
Even professional matchmakers don’t assure you that they will give you what you want. They will work more on assisting you by considering your needs and seeing to it that they find a set of suitable options for you to work with. Yes, they’ll be working with you along the way, but like science and math, you can’t just force an outcome unless you add in the necessary variables for you to have the desired result.
A lot of lovelorn individuals have good reasons for not taking the risk of online dating. But in today’s world, is there anything that doesn’t require risks?
I am obviously highlighting the several advantages of online dating, but then again, advantages don’t always mean they’re guaranteed.
If you want to talk about how you can get started on online dating, that’s a different story. And naturally, I’ll have a different set of answers for you.
Before you decide to give it a try, contemplate how willing you are to meet women who would be interested in a man like you. And when I say women, I mean women from all around the world, not just the ones in your hometown or local area. Online dating entails branching out to a whole different lineup of women who, like you, are looking for someone who wants to be with them.
So go ahead and ask yourself.
Is online dating something you’re ready for?
