As a woman who considers herself to be fairly average, you are getting increasingly discouraged the more you see people on dating apps who are way out of your league.

You thought that dating apps were a place to find a wide range of men, many of whom would be average like yourself.

Yet, every dating profile you come across is that of a picture perfect man who is overachieving, and with a seemingly perfect life.

You are an ordinary girl and you want to match with a guy you can relate to.

Not the men who all seem to be out of your league.

These dating profiles are too perfect.

It’s like each of these men were created in a lab and were instantly assigned the most perfect lives by an AI straight out of a sci-fi movie.

It is discouraging for you to keep seeing these dating profiles on dating apps.

You instantly know that the moment you swipe right on the dating profiles of any of these guys, you are setting yourself up for disappointment.

You can’t imagine that any of these picture perfect men are going to be interested in you.

There isn’t much you have in common with them either.

You have read their dating profiles with a fine-tooth comb, and although there are areas of commonality, there is much more that you struggle to relate with.

Regardless of what dating app you sign up on, it is the same thing.

The same picture perfect men abound.

This is clearly bothering you, and I can only imagine the number of times you have logged into a dating app and logged out completely disappointed by what you saw.

It makes it impossible for you to think of a life where you actually match with someone you have a lot in common with.

Here is what’s really going on.

These guys who seem out of your league, aren’t.

Many of them believe that they have to present themselves as picture perfect to get matches.

Guys on dating apps don’t get anywhere near as many matches as women do.

Being that women receive substantially more matches on a dating app than guys do, they can afford to be picky in who they choose to match with.

To this end, lots of guys are compelled to create picture perfect dating profiles so that they have the best shot of getting a match.

It’s a smokescreen.

The lion’s share of these guys aren’t perfect, nor do they have picture perfect lives.

His pictures are taken at angles that compliment him the most, as he wears designer clothes that are knockoffs, and drives a fancy car that he doesn’t own.

And he is no stranger to using filters in his photos to make him look unrealistically unblemished.

The picture perfect life that he describes in his bio is embellished.

He is exaggerating in several areas, whether it be in how many countries he has traveled to, or how many advanced college degrees he has.

The truth is, so much of what you see on his dating profile is a smokescreen, designed to impress the picky woman he is hoping swipes right on his dating profile.

Now that you know this, don’t feel so bad about yourself.

The reality is, many of these men aren’t out of your league.

They are peddling a false narrative to get more matches.
