I've matched around 70 times on Tinder and 15 times on various other dating apps/sites in the past few months. I'm improving, but currently, from these matches, I've gotten about 2 thirds of the girls to actually respond and interact and 8 girls on actual dates. That's pretty much 9% of getting my matches onto dates. I know even the 'masters' still get rejected and don't get every girl, but I'm curious on what the average rate for other people are. LOADS of people say Tinder is useless and a waste of time, but I'm sure they're just butthurt guys who gave up too quickly.

I finally opened a tinder account and in 5 days I have matched 7 girls I texted with 2 and i already met one today.
is matter of mastering the text game, I think you are doing fine, Im happy with my success Im more familiar with face messenger and I have great success with it but tinder I had a good start. your realistic expectations are the practice time and discipline you are willing to invest getting chicks on tinder, practice makes perfect.

Honestly it doesn't get easier than tinder.

Also the point of "game" is not to get as many women as possible. You could easily do that if you were to change your personality and/or sense of humor to match that of any woman you talk to. But then you'd have no character of your own.
The point is to get as many compatible women as possible.

Either way, if your texting is not boring and similar to every other guy, you'll do great.

I'm searching already, but R.C, are you able to recommend one or two reading materials or videos about text game?

(Aside from your post)

Not really.

Just don't be afraid of flirting/teasing and express yourself freely.

If you are able to befriend a natural ladies man and hang out with him then you can see first hand what can be done. My roommate learned from watching me after going out with me to game for a few months. Now, he is a walking stud.

Experience will be your best teacher. As for text game, just keep a simple rule in your head "if I were to receive this text, would I reply?"

Text is for logistics, converting phone number into dates, and generating attraction and comfort to secure the meet up and prevent flaking.

That is good advice.

Unfortunately, (or I guess fortunately in a way), I'm the closest person to being a natural in my group of friends now, haha. The guy who got me into game, now he was a. Fucking. Natural. I've never met someone as cool, fun and confident in my life. He is now abroad, enjoying Barbados.

I've tried to bring two of my closest friends into pickup and self improvement, and get them to be fun wingmen, but they seemed to kinda wimp out for the most part.

"If I were to receive this text, would I reply?" - I'll probably just tattoo this to my arm
