Imagine getting soft-rejected by 8 girls (online dating initiation) straight after the first date. How likely is it that picture expectations set the bar too high, and I was rejected purely because of my looks? Because for context: I am NOT socially retarded. I am able to hold eye contact and have comfortable conversations with women. Maybe I am not the most flirtatious and touchy person, but come on, it was the FIRST date, and I never met those girls before... And if my assumption is true, what can I do. I feel like every new rejection hit my confidence very hard. Ofc I can stop taking them personally but in the end they still reject me for a personal reason so it is very hard...

indian or black ?
 
indian or black ?
No, I am European. I would also consider myself average-looking face-wise. My only true weakness is that I am 128lb at 5'9. But besides that, I should be good. But even if i were indian or black, why would it matter if they see my pictures before, that doesn't make any sense.

what happened on the dates
 
so you are a 5'9 hltn in europe and wondering why u got rejected
Yes, that's right. And the girls were very diverse. Some very short, some about the same height, some very pretty, some normies as well.
 
what happened on the dates
Pretty diverse...Walk at the lake, bar, dinner, coffee shop, etc. At one date I had my arm around her, at other dates it was just a nice conversation...
 
Post yourself here, for more objective explanation
I am HLTN to LMTN so quite average and as I said average height but fairly skinny. Not sure how important that is if I am much taller than the girls I date. But I won't post any photos publicly... But I think that my rating is quite consistent with how I get treated. I get matches on the apps, soft rejections, etc.

Maybe too much of a normie?
 
if you're getting desperate try lowering your standards (although not good in the long run)
 
u got the first date so either they think you’re better looking online, you’re hella weird in person, or they just wanted a free meal
 
Big mistake
I know 😬 But especially the touch barrier is very hard to break on a first date. And it is probably also very risky because I don't know if that woman really likes me. And this was prob not the case if she didn't want a second date...
