I've tried online dating and like most guys walk away frustrated when 5-6's don't even give you the time of day. I'm easily a 7 myself. I do better with women offline, but my opportunities are more limited.
It just seems once a woman takes a bite of that forbidden fruit of online dating and realizes that she can jump online at any point in the day and be showered with ego boosting attention from tons of guys, many better looking than her, she's never the same again. She approaches real world dating with a 'my crap don't stink attitude' and if all else fails she knows she has a ready supply of guys waiting online.
All of this makes me want to give up online dating forever. The quality of women I see online is low but their demand is high. Ideally I'd hope to meet a woman who has never filled out an online dating profile and hasn't been tainted.
