Dude, I'd get off the dating apps man. You aren't going to find quality there. Boyfriend #53 never wins. If your goals are similar to mind (a real wife and children), it's not gonna happen on an app, those women are trash.

I'm in a great relationship with someone I met on Match.

But I'm also not a millennial.

Age does have something to do with. The younger you are the more these apps are just meat markets and a way for some women to feel better about themselves. Us middle-aged people are seeking something different, and it does work online. We aren't going out much anymore. We aren't meeting anyone at a bar or a club or a social gathering. The women are on these apps for the same reason we men are: We've had failed relationships and marriages and are seeking something better, and let's see what happens online.

You do need to be attractive though. Sorry but it's the truth. You are primarily judged on your pictures. They don't need to be professional but at least in my age bracket if the man is taking shirtless bathroom selfies or likes to feature his baseball cap he's not getting responses from a woman seeking a genuine relationship and not a hook-up. Women need to be, well, attractive. That's subjective to a point but only to a point.
