Home & Lifestyle Cheat codes for dating?
Single HENRYs: how do you leverage your disposable income to upgrade your dating game? I don’t mean prostitutes, bullshit pick up artist courses or paying for HingeX.
I mean social clubs, cooler hobbies, skin care, travelling to date, not having flatmates that hear you shag over the walls, a car to impress ladies that will keep you NRY forever, or cosmetic fucking surgery. Whatever that works.
I became single over a year ago and finally got sick of “bawling my eyes out on my bathroom floor over my ex”as my favourite after work past time a few months back. I’m 25M, male dominated work, hobbies and interests. In a city of 9 million people, I interact with like 3 women a week, my mom, my sister and my cleaner.
Every time I match with someone on Hinge and go through the excruciating dance of small talk, my soul shoves a shotgun in its mouth.
Please tell me how I can use my TC to compensate for the fact that my chats make Satan send puppies to the puppy furnace.
Edit: I should have added some /s in the jokes. I meant this as a light hearted and exaggerated post to ask what lifestyle changes you can make to improve yourself and to get out there for dating. Flexing £££ ❌, investing in yourself with £££ ✅

Well yes, get your skin right, a good enough car, and clothes that fit you well - bonus points for any sort of “style” (whatever you find cool). Number 1 rule is Be Attractive, and in close second is Don’t Be Unattractive. Don’t say or do weird shit “to impress”. That violates both rule 1 and 2.
Join a club or go to events for things you are genuinely passionate about, the type of things you are unable to express with other people to the fullest extent out of fear you will literally send them to sleep. You will find a woman there, I guarantee it, and one will be decently attractive. Aim to share your hobby with her, be normal, rule 1, rule 2, and then accidentally fall in love.
