That was great. I feel like your interviewing style is super welcoming, doesn’t feel like you’re trying to make them look dumb or feel uncomfortable - but still feels genuine and real. Nice nice
Dating apps are a way for people to feel less lonely, but it usually ends up in frustration because it's not very common to actually find a good connection with someone beyond the obvious.
The major problem here is too many scammers. Every dating site is full of scammers. And people who want to direct you to a third party site. And the majority of women don’t even want to date or get to know you. Most the men are bad as well as the women.
Also, you look attractive, but people have different types etc. You seem to have thoughts and the ability to communicate them, which is oddly uncommon and extremely attractive...
People are shallow as hell on dating apps as most girls (and guys probably) just want the validation that they got "liked" but never actually have a real interest in trying to date. It's so frustrating really. Everyone also has insanely high and unrealistic standards on what they perceive to be "a happy life". Like I'm not saying to lower your standards but you need realistic ones too.
College students don't really need dating apps, just walk outside. But the older you get, the more helpful they get. Esp if you don't frequent bars often.
I'd say the opposite - they are the best during college - best way to connect with someone you've seen on campus but don't know enough just to talk to...
pretty drastic oversimplification of how people interact. we could all just walk outside at any time-i live in a city with 10 million people in it (bigger than a college campus). obviously, there's more to it than that
@@rowstyles I said they dont really need. Wasn't a hard black/white statement. Of course it can still be useful. But there are so many other opportunities available to you at a coed school that the rest of life doesn't regularly afford you. I'm in NYC daily, 8 million people, doesn't change my point. How many times do you see the same random people more than once in your giant city? In college you are in multiple daily classes with other students as well as other activities. Plus if the dorm is coed... I will say for introverts it will forever be helpful. College or not.
I hate dating apps because people don't try to keep conversations up at all anymore. They expect to establish relationships without putting in any effort and I feel thats how alot of people are outside of dating apps as well.
In my experience, dating apps are the worst place to meet the best people. I had meetings with people that if we met on another occasion, we would have a more lasting relationship, friendship or serious relationship. But as cool as the meeting is, the app's own logic prevents it: the following week, both you and the other person will have other options to choose from on the menu. Than, it's over. Keep it up, Andrew. I love your new phase. Next video suggestion: People on Pornography.
In my experience, almost 100 percent of women will not ask you a single question on dating apps. They will simply answer your questions, and the interaction is over. It's so frustrating. Does anyone actually want to get to know anyone anymore?
I'm an introvert and I was at a place where I was very stuck and didn't meet many new people, dating apps helped me meet a lot of interesting people that I wouldn't really get to meet otherwise. I went to places that I wanted to go to for a long time now that I had the company I wanted. I also met my girlfriend and love of my life, so that's a plus as well. Highly recommend it if you're in a similar situation.
How do you deal with the fact that you are a loner? When meeting new people you can't say that your friendless, they will think you are weird. I don't want that secret to come out but I don't know how to avoid it when meeting new people.
@@Mirko-95 it's exactly what I did as well, I faked it till I made it. I made it seem like I had a good social life even though it was the opposite haha. Dating apps actually boosted my motivation and openness. I met some good people along the way.
As a guy: I'm an introvert, I've tried dating apps but I wasn't getting matches with people I was interested in. On the one in a thousand chance I'd get a match, I would either get unmatched or ignored. Be tough out there...but we keep it movin....
FEEDBACK: Best "People on" so far, your questions were much more dynamic, loose, and in the moment. Previous episodes would sometimes have repetitive questions and answers and I found myself losing interest half way through the videos. Good stuff Andrew, always watch your content, hope the feedback was good.
I feel like I'm like most people about dating apps; they can be annoying but sometimes lead to some real meaningful connections if you give it a chance. I met my girlfriend of 9 months on Hinge after dating around for a couple of months before, so I'm biased because I met someone pretty damn incredible on it. Try not to get sucked into the apps too much. Once I started to ease up on swiping and was more casual about it, it became a lot more of a helpful tool to form genuine connections and took the pressure off.
I deleted tinder and I was a back and forth long time user, but honestly my recent experiences made me hate that shit, it’s evil asf and just kinda starts to take control, it’s been 2 months no tinder (I also don’t have any socials but it’s been hella years no mainstream socials) and I feel way more clear in my mind without that bs, I’d rather be alone
During my four years in college I didn't meet a single person (aside from platonic friendships with professors) because of how introverted I tend to be. I'd enter class, sit down, and close my eyes, opening them only when I was taking notes, looking at a visual aid, or interacting with someone as needed. One class required being in a group from the first day onward. I quit that class immediately. All my attempts at dating websites over the years (last time I tried was about five years ago) left me with no matches aside from one person who lived about an hour away, in which case I told her I didn't think it would work. I tend to be extremely verbose and detailed in my "about me" section. I spill all the awkwardness out up front, because that's who I am. Why string someone along and make them expect some perfect male ideal when I'm simply not. A waste of time and shameful in my opinion, even if it gets you more chances to interact with someone. I don't like putting up any fronts or being anything but who I am to a "fault". I remember something like 10 years ago I tried Match and was told that there were no matches for me in my entire state. This may be because not as many people were using it at the time or simply because of how fucking goofy I am. I have been single for about 15 years now. I haven't had sex in about 14 years. I likely will never date nor have sex again. I've made peace with this. If I stumble into a relationship it'll be a pleasant surprise and that's cool, too. Peace.
The biggest problem with dating apps in any major city is a large majority of the girls are getting ran thru the top 15% of guys. You have 4s that are entitled and will reject a 7 because she thinks that she is worthy of a 9 just because a 9 will give her attention and pump and dump her I still use them but have also added in cold approach. I think this way is better as because you have the guts to do it the girl takes you more srs and you stand out rather than just being a digital profile.
Great video I love these recent ones are so good! The freshman kid seemed hilarious. “E-Harmony” lol I haven’t had any luck with dating apps… I usually end up deleting them within a couple days. It just feels like you’re online “shopping”. It’s hard to meet people in person but I’ve basically accepted that’s the way it’s gotta be, for me at least
Congrats on 15 days by the way! I don't know if you keep track of it on paper or via an app already but if you haven't I highly urge you to start! Something about seeing the number go up just makes it so much easier to stay clean. Good luck Andrew!
Andrew It’s great that you’re doing what you’re doing and continuing to produce content. Please going because the world’s a better place with you in it. ✌️
Andrew I love these videos. They’re the perfect length. Just straight to the point. Keep it up. Was watching your classic videos few nights ago and was in tears again. Keep it up.
I aimlessly used the dating apps all throughout college to varied degrees of success. Deleted them for about a year, moved, got settled in, and downloaded them again with a new profile but quickly found that they just stressed me out! I wouldn't be surprised if I downloaded it again though later on! Great vid as always!
I hate dating apps with a passion. I used them for a while, but i've realised how much of a waste of time they are and how much they are ruining in real life interactions and the dating world
I've used Tinder and Plenty of Fish. I've met up with one guy on POF but after we met up he stopped talking to me lmao. They can work but it's hard to find people that you genuinely connect with. I hate the awkward small talk. I'd rather just connect with someone in real life, which I have. I met my boyfriend at work. I think a lot of the time they are just used for ego inflation (when you get matches you get a dopamine high).
My last date was in Feb of 2012 and the best thing about that date was the waffle fries lol. My friends told me to get on Tinder a few years ago, so I did. I started out trying to match with women who had similar interests but never had any matches. After that I just swiped right on every woman within like a 100 mile radius and none of them matched so I just laughed and deleted the app. That was in Michigan. Idk if maybe a bunch of them were fake profiles or what, but I didn't waste much time with it. That was my experience. Lol. I haven't dated or used dating apps since. I'm not lonely or anything, and don't think the apps are for losers.
The women complaining about not finding quality guys or about guys just wanting to hook up on those apps are experiencing that only because they swipe on the stereotypical hot guys that just want to hookup. So many guys are on the app to have a fulfilling relationship but get ignored just on looks
@@jichaelmorgan3796 Fair, but there clearly was attraction to begin with. Not your type is not synonymous with not attractive. You can't logic or personality your way out of a girl who doesn't find you attractive. Flip it around, can you excuse a girl you don't think is attractive just cause they have a great personality?
15 days, you got this. 4 years here, it's the most important thing in your life right now, give it everything you got, things get REALLY good after long enough, you can do it!
Heck no dude! Don’t you dare doing your opinion right then and there!! I absolutely love the vibe of these types of endings! They’re half of the reason I watch your videos. PLEASE don’t change a thing!
That outro lol. I’ve only ever used Bumble and the only two dates I’ve been on from it ended up resulting in multiple year long relationships. My current boyfriend was one of those two and we’ve been strong for a little over 2.5 years as well. Moved in together about a year ago. Meeting during lockdown felt more exclusive and intimate since our social bubbles were super limited. Texted almost every day for maybe two weeks before meeting up and 2 weeks later we were officially a couple so no complaints here! We bonded pretty fast since we would just stay in enjoying each others company with no distractions. Once we were able to go in public again it was funny seeing each other all dressed up after so long in lounge clothes 😂 I feel like people hate the apps bc maybe they’re not getting to know the people much before meeting in person and just settling for some attention. I think its vital to know the basics first and think to yourself well if we don’t flow romantically, would this person still be a friend or someone cool or interesting enough that I would introduce to a friend maybe? I couldn’t imagine asking the basic questions when meeting for the first time, it seems like a huge possible waste of time because the honest truth is, most people in general suck and your time on earth is PRECIOUS.
for the time being, i think dating apps are a necessary evil-but i don't think they're doing us much good long-term. as newer generations get better at curating their online personas, the disparity between said persona and their actually personality grows, making it harder to gauge who you're setting up a date with-and thus harder to control the quality of a date. tldr: as people get more "online", the quality of dates via dating apps declines
Single for life! But if I did date I’d much rather it be in person than online dating. I’m old fashioned that way and there’s too many scammers and crazies with the latter. How do I know this? I’ve been on some dating websites out of curiosity. Besides that, I have other prerequisites that I’d follow, such as doing an extensive criminal background check, health check, etc. Since people lie about who they are online all the time, at least when I see them, I don’t have to worry about that as much. People still lie regardless, but it’s harder to do in person. Personality also doesn’t come through online very well sometimes. I wouldn’t be completely against online dating but I’d be more cautious than in-person dating. I also wouldn’t be scouting for potential partners in places like the typical bar or club since I don’t go to these places and that’s not the type of crowd I associate with, especially if I’m looking for someone to be in a long term relationship with. If I saw someone that interested me in a grocery store, park or library, I’d maybe go up and talk to them if they look approachable. This is all a hypothetical approach I’d take to dating since again, I’m happily single for life.
These videos are great! Also I actually really like the way you give your thoughts on the subjects after. In my head it's like the opposite of a hot take which gives a great contrast to the other people in the vid.
Never got anything on a dating app. No dates and no hookups. I'd get most of my likes in the first 3 days of creating an account, then it would just stop. I'd very rarely match with anyone too.
Like you mentioned, it was pretty great for me because i'm heavily introverted and actually met a girl on tinder that lived an hour away that i've now been dating for 3.5 years.... so lol. Didn't have much success beforehand for a long time but it ended up being very successful for me.
"they're not conducive to good interactions with people" she is 100% right because in a lot of cases, they're not even conducive to ANY interactions. NOT ANY!!!!! So many people just get their messages ignored!!!!!
in person interactions will always be the best way but if youre in a small town or really shy it can be difficult. i used to meet 1 or 2 girls a week from dating apps back in 2010 and a few years after now a days i feel like their egos are way to big and they play way too many games on them
Stay strong Andrew! Just think of it one day at a time, like you just have to get past this day since there is always only this day, the other ones dont exist.
3:23 To the freshman who's going to a different school than his highschool sweetheart: sorry man, it isn't gonna work out. 99.5% chance. But hey, at least you've got the soulless dating apps
dude said eHarmony .. what a legend
Dude also runs a 4:21 mile, absolute legend
That guy was a cool cat.
Lol yeah he must enjoy answering 100 questions just to find a match. eHarmony kinda sucks lol

Love the comment but love the name more. "eets jahst ah fleesh wound!"
Hahaha
Bruh idk that's not fair. I got good quality girls on hinge but I agree on quantity
Bro I hate dating apps. I don’t think I’m attractive and then seeing no matches or “run out in your area” is kind of disheartening. Never again.
Head up bro🤝 the right one will come eventually
You didnt follow rule number 1
If you’re not really attractive it’s a waste of time. real life is the best way
If you are straight, fyi... there are a lot more men on dating apps than women, and the women that are on apps barely ever swipe right.
Also, you look attractive, but people have different types etc. You seem to have thoughts and the ability to communicate them, which is oddly uncommon and extremely attractive...

HOW TO FIND A PARTNER:
1. MEET
2. Jet back to your place to pop in a blu ray
3.???
4. Profit
3. She doesn't follow you to your place
4. Lift up your shirt to expose the dad-belly
5. Slap it softly while saying "Whoops"
6. Keep trying

Besides that, I have other prerequisites that I’d follow, such as doing an extensive criminal background check, health check, etc. Since people lie about who they are online all the time, at least when I see them, I don’t have to worry about that as much. People still lie regardless, but it’s harder to do in person. Personality also doesn’t come through online very well sometimes. I wouldn’t be completely against online dating but I’d be more cautious than in-person dating. I also wouldn’t be scouting for potential partners in places like the typical bar or club since I don’t go to these places and that’s not the type of crowd I associate with, especially if I’m looking for someone to be in a long term relationship with. If I saw someone that interested me in a grocery store, park or library, I’d maybe go up and talk to them if they look approachable. This is all a hypothetical approach I’d take to dating since again, I’m happily single for life.

The freshman cross country guy interview was so great
These videos are great! Also I actually really like the way you give your thoughts on the subjects after. In my head it's like the opposite of a hot take which gives a great contrast to the other people in the vid.
That are you lonely line was pretty funny 😂
Never got anything on a dating app. No dates and no hookups. I'd get most of my likes in the first 3 days of creating an account, then it would just stop. I'd very rarely match with anyone too.
Bro this your second coming. Honestly loving these interviews.
"Mostly for hookups"...that would be awesome! They're mostly for ghosting, flaking and rejecting.
The cross country guy and Andrew share the same wavelength lmao
These videos make me feel so relaxed
Like you mentioned, it was pretty great for me because i'm heavily introverted and actually met a girl on tinder that lived an hour away that i've now been dating for 3.5 years.... so lol. Didn't have much success beforehand for a long time but it ended up being very successful for me.
15 days is a great start! You got this!!
Keep up being the goatest goat Andrew, this content is the perfect mix of casual and interesting
I loved this one ❤😂 your spirits seem up, Andrew ! Glad to see u posting more c:

15 days LET’S GO!!! That’s freaking awesome
Got to watch this on my break
finally some genuine content on youtube
You stay bringing gold content 🙌🔥 congrats on staying sober too bro I know it's a journey
color grading makes me supa happy
I'm not a big fan but I do appreciate the transparency of online dating
“Transparency” Lmao
Loved seeing the campus again. I went to Vanderbilt in the late 70s and early 80s. No dating apps back then. But there were dorm parties.
Andrew meets his long lost twin brother at 2:15 mins lol 😅
"they're not conducive to good interactions with people" she is 100% right because in a lot of cases, they're not even conducive to ANY interactions. NOT ANY!!!!! So many people just get their messages ignored!!!!!
The GOAT
I’ve found the quality of people isn’t as high as one would expect. In person meeting should be a priority
15 days sober is excellent Mr Andrew G. Hales. I'm on 18 now, so you are maybe around the same. woop woop! 🤸♀
Liking tese videos Andrew. Been following you forever and I think the whole social aspect is great bringing you back to your roots. Hope you're well!
I love how you’re evolving lahwf! Keep up the grind, you’re awesome dude.
Hobbies have been the best way for me to meet women. Photography before, salsa after, I'm off market now but it was way better than apps.
I love when a girl says she doesn’t like to message first it’s like OK? the sky is blue too you don’t need to tell me lol
in person interactions will always be the best way but if youre in a small town or really shy it can be difficult. i used to meet 1 or 2 girls a week from dating apps back in 2010 and a few years after now a days i feel like their egos are way to big and they play way too many games on them
I'm 28 right now and want a gf but also don't. So I'm just coasting which might leave me alone at 40 but it is what it is.
Stay strong Andrew! Just think of it one day at a time, like you just have to get past this day since there is always only this day, the other ones dont exist.
Good shit on the 15 day sober streak 👏
“If we break up, yes I would”. Otay Otay, my man about to download Tinder 😂
I think that everybody finds their own way to successful dating whether it's with dating apps or in person or both it's so individual.
Cope
Relationships are a waste of time. I love myself too much to care about that dried-up roast beef.
@@monk4ever you seem like you’re having a hard time convincing yourself that
I love that you’re back brother
Nice to see you back posting videos consistently again, love the content keep it up!
3:23 To the freshman who's going to a different school than his highschool sweetheart: sorry man, it isn't gonna work out. 99.5% chance. But hey, at least you've got the soulless dating apps
Met my partner over 3 years ago. We have had a baby boy and are engaged. Easiest way to meet people if you have a busy life.
Im gonna try bumblebee 🤣🤣🤣
Yo I dieddd 🤣🤣
Dude keep the interviews coming! Loving this content
The cross country guy was by far the best

You’re looking good man and enjoying the new content. Keep it up and I’m sure you’ll continue to get viewers back.
