One time I tried E-harmony for a month. Set no kids, non religious, and physical fitness as extremely important. It matched me with nothing but fat, christian, cows with kids.

I'm in Philadelphia and with only a few notable exceptions every chick I've met on OkCupid has been pretty cute. A couple have been objectively terrible as people (one cute Penn Law grad opened the conversation by talking about how she liked living in DC better because "people kept to their own kind there") but mostly its all grad students and medical professionals who don't have time to meet people the normal way. Tinder kept hooking me up with undergrads, hairdressers and bartenders, which is cool for banging but not really ideal for actually dating. After three months here I have two good booty call options, which is more than enough given the rest of my schedule, so I turned off Tinder and only go on dates with chicks that I might want to date in a longer-term sense.

OKC really depends on where you live. Down here in South Carolina, it's at best mediocre. But near big northern cities, it's really good. It seems like it's more popular with the younger, intelligent, tech-friendly crowd. Which explains why it kinda sucks down south. One guy I worked with joined some military specific dating site, and met this chick from MN. He took two weeks of leave and flew up there to meet her. When he showed up at work one week later (of a 2 week leave), his only response to our questions was "Mind your own loving business." enlisted.txt

Online dating is up and down. I've had great dates and boring dates from okcupid, but none that were truly terrible. Tinder netted me the worst date of my life a couple weeks or so ago. Ludicrously hot israeli chick, but she was a total germophobe incapable of words that weren't complaints about something or other. We went to a movie (the worst date scenario) and when I asked for a sip of her soda she wanted me to get my own straw and take the paper off on each end so my fingers wouldn't touch it. At the end she said to me "you don't have to walk me out or anything, I don't think there was much of a spark" which was pretty lol. Bonus is that I'm now an expert on the fact that there's bacteria everywhere. That being said, I had a great tinder date last week that I may continue with so it may just be luck of the draw.

One weird thing about OkCupid and Tinder is that women actually message me, which was weird given that I always heard the problem was that you had to send out a billion messages to get any responses. When I send a message I have over a 50% response rate. I'm not sure why, other than I do my best to send thoughtful messages based on the profile I just read. I'm not that good looking. My profile is pretty generic, mostly just pictures of my trips to SE Asia while I was stationed on Guam and Sweden/Finland a year or so ago with a new picture for my lead at a Philly landmark. On OKC I have a mention of my past military service, some generic lists of poo poo I like or whatever, and a name-drop of the program I'm at, which is pretty well regarded. You'd have some people be boring/weird with literally any system of blind dating strangers. I think it works overall incredibly well, at least here. In Yucca Valley/29 Palms it was a hilarious trainwreck. My old laptop died without a backup, but I used to have a screenshot of an OkCupid profile that was a picture of a woman leaned up against a car peeing on the side of the road, with an 'About Me' section that said "I'm looking for a man with military benefits."

It's not hard because the majority of messages dudes send are literally "hey u want 10" dik???"

Tinder around the 21-25 range out in Los Angeles is a mix of batshit crazy women with daddy issues, hipsters, and wannabe glamor models, there's really no inbetween. You're definitely not going to find long-term material, but it's good times none the less. I can't imagine what it's like in the flyover states.

My best bud and his BF just moved to Atlanta and they're gaying up a big gay house and raising some pet (gay) chickens and, to my surprise, nobody down there gives a gently caress. It sounds pretty sweet, especially compared to upstate new york that is already cold as gently caress.

Any of you guys gotten LASIK? If so was it awesome? Any regrets to having a laser vaporize chunks of your eyeball? A real doctor would do it, not someone in any military.

That was the best thing the air force ever did for me. Lasik is the best. If nothing else, I got that out of 'em. Two years later and it still shocks me sometimes that I can see without contacts. I lucked out in that my doc went to Harvard medical and had spent like 5 or 6 years doing it in the civilian side before he went mil.
