Everyone I start talking to eventually stops talking to me

I don't think it is anything you are doing wrong. People like to mess around on online dating sites (from what I hear.) They could be just playing the field so to speak. Don't take it personally. *hug*

 

One major reason I don't consider online dating - too many hookups, attention seeker or fakes.

Ever thought about changing you dating style and go to Gay/LGBT groupmeetings
or go to a hobby meetup you like and wear a LGBT/Pride button?
If your country is not LGBT supportive and/or there is no group meeting,
maybe start one yourself if it's safe enough?

 

Oh honey it might just be what you are telling them.
If you are like me and prefer long term commuted relationship as the receptive effeminate bottom chances are you will be getting shot down quickly 99 out of 100 times.
Social media has become the cruise spot of these modern times and the men who frequent the hook up sites are mainly looking for quicky one time affairs rather than anything meaningful.
Asking too many personal questions will often buzzkill them quicker than anything, 'Are you married?', 'Do you like to date?', "Will you pay for dinner?', all these can quickly kill the conversation.
Ever notice how the conversations often start with, "Hi" 'Hi there', "So what do you like to do?" 'Well, I like to ride Llamas in the mountains of Peru and paint unicorns on the sides of VW Beetles.' will kill a 'conversation' faster than anything.

Anyway, keep chatting, eventually you'll find the ones who know how to hold their own in a real conversation.

 

I've found no one who is really serious on online dating which is why I've stopped looking online.
I agree with finding some LGBT groups in your area or even a gay bar, but in my experience (not everyone) but a lot of people are looking for hook-ups there too.

 

I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with you. This kind of thing happens a lot on dating websites and apps. They were likely looking for a hookup and decided to go for an easier conquest; which, on another note, is an incredibly dangerous thing to do. After reading this story about a guy hooking up with people on ###### and deliberately infecting them with HIV, I've taken a large step backwards from the dating sites.
