I mapped out the last 6 months of my dating life using a Sankey diagram.
It shows how things flowed from matches → conversations → dates → outcomes.
Quick definition: Dating = gone on more than 3 dates, not that we’re bf/gf
I put it together mostly because I ended up enjoying the process more than I expected! I decided to really invest in dating and putting myself out there this past year. I met a ton of new people and made a lot of memories! Felt like a fun way to look back at everything so far, and to show others that the apps do in fact still work!

can we hear about the ending on bad terms
Any takeaways regarding the dating scene after the 6 months?
You’re currently dating two people?
You know why they’re all running away from him when you see “currently dating 2”
The no response should have been on the top it fucks up the order
I have gotten 2 matches in 6 months and one was to use me as a fetish
Would be fun if you made the ghosting directional too.
Do the two people you are dating know that you are dating somebody else too…? If not, this is quite an embarrassing personal trait of yours to share
This is WAY better results than we usually see for guys in dating apps. So now I am really curious about this guys location, age, height, weight, job etc.
Matches my experience on the ratio between matches and first dates actually…thats kind of interesting considering I was mostly aiming for long term relationship too.
Looks like its true about that advice that you cant just twiddle your thumbs over every match you get because its highly likely most matches will not pan out into a date.
Currently dating 2! He must be a Ryan Gosling level hottie
So you went on 38+ dates in 6 months with 18 different women? Thats more than 1.5 dates a week. And you are currently dating 2 people, who you’ve gone on 4+ dates with and still haven’t made a decision? I think you might be the problem bro
So the last 6 months you have been on 38+ dates?
So ur saying your tall and good looking!
Lots of people are asking you to define dating (which you did) but can you define ghosting? As in, are all these people just disappearing without saying anything or are some saying “no thanks” and you’re calling it a ghost?
It looks like you’re having a pretty successful go at it. Good for you!
So ~45+ dates in 6 months (180 days). A date every 4 days. At least.
How many messages resulted in matches?
“Currently dating”

This is by far the best results I’ve seen
Why does it resemble the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram?
Lots of losers and incels exposing themselves in the comments here.
If you’re going on dates with someone, but you’ve never talked about becoming exclusive, then you can date whomever you want on the side.
This shows it’s worked for most people for a long, long time.
How high population of an area? My results weren’t nearly as good, but I also live in a city of 20,000 people.
79 matches over 6 months is crazy. I wonder what your like:match ratio is.
So 87% (12+57 out of 79) of their matches end in being ignored. Or 7 out of 8.
Okay but no one has asked; gay, straight, or bi? Cuz that also needs to be considered from a date stand point.
Ngl if I found out you were dating someone else for multiple dates while also dating me ild just walk away from you and let them have you. I don’t need that kind of indecisiveness in my life
Looks a lot better than tinder. Or ur just incredibly handsome lol
Continue dating 2 people and you’ll up that “bad terms” number to 4.
Asking girls to dance has a 10 times better response ratio
God what a wasteland. The amount of women that called me a nerd or “poor”. I work at Microsoft as a software engineer. Some of the women were unemployed and said this lol
Bro’s gone on more dates in 6 months than my entire life
🎶my girlfriend’s girlfriend🎵
So you’re saying there’s a chance?
This is an insane number of dates and first dates to me. Why so many?
I’ve not had 18 first dates in my whole life.
Man, you must be gorgeous!
Exchanging phone numbers before dating seems like an unnecessary step.
As a guy, Hinge has been far and away the best app for me getting dates. Its very weird how much better it works for me than the other apps.
r/HolUp something about this makes stop… dunno why…
But yeah, 2 still dating is wild.
Y’all are getting matches?
