Nice. Looks like they just take a cut, not a fixed fee. Potentially you won't have to pay anything unless the app takes off!

Is this now a Vancouver-focused dating app? It's bound to fail!

Doesn't have to be, Asians are everywhere! Added bonus that the word Avenue is in there because most of them belong to the streets anyways

I can't remember the names of these other apps I used that were catered to Asians.. it was mostly full of fobs so I didn't spend a lot of time in there.

You should be able to get some while you're there I'd say lol.

Somewhat related, when I visited KL I was at a large dinner party and everyone was sharing stories. When I shared a story with the group, they all looked at me mesmerized and it was simply because to them, my English was so good it was like watching a movie.

Also, as I'm sure you're aware, in HK we get a lot of attention. In fact, WAY more attention than we do here. My phone was blowing up on dating apps when I would visit there and it's because they knew I was CBC. Use these things to your advantage. Being different than the locals but also Asian is definitely a big plus to many girls over there.

Interesting.

When I introduced myself to locals in HK,they felt sorry for me and said we were no better than a third world country and that we must really miss Asian food. I was like

The best was, "Wow, you know how to use chopsticks?"

Yeah there’s no more western superiority and not a lot of east asian emigrate to Canada anymore. South Korea sells more Mercedes than Canada and strangely it’s cheaper there too.

Also Korea society is pretty judgmental especially the rich so they just took one look at bic baws not wearing a made to measure tom ford suit with a lange & sohne timepiece and they made up their mind already.

100% agree if you're aiming for the super rich ones. But if you're just among the common people, you'll do just fine.

The amount of wealth in South Korea is insane. I met billionares today, "poors" who wear 500K bracelets, an internationally acclaimed artist (who did a performance that looks like my niece did finger painting) that had a bunch of young women around him decked out in jewelery and shit going like "oooh" "ahhh" "WAAAA" ... its so fucking fake.

I'm staying at the Grand Imperial Mercure Hotel in Gangnam, and only see Hyundai/Kias as Ubers. Mercedes is definitely everywhere - there's almost as many Maybachs as there are ubers here. I've seen one Alphard, one Lexus LM, a few BMWs (usually all diesel - 20d 30ds), but definitely like 5-6 Maybachs per side street, some being used as delivery vehicles. There's more Rolls Royce here than BMWs. I've seen one MC20, two ferraris, 1 lambo, a handful of Bentleys.

I definitely felt like charity today. But I think I did well with the few normal Korean people and have a couple of dates planned for next week.

My experience of Korea this week has been eye opening to the amount of wealth in Asia. Now I know what other people mean by there's no real wealth in Vancouver (compared to Asia). I've been spoiled this week and I definitely don't think I would have experienced this without my connections. On the other hand, I met a billionare yesterday and I got him an arrangement of flowers, and he was genuinely speechless and grateful for the gift. So it's definitely not one size fits all, but seeing first hand true high society.. is fucked up.

Oh for the data center/hardware folks - I toured a facility the other day that had several Linux One's , both the $1M and the $2M ones.

How do some of these guys juggle multiple apps at once?

I only have FB Dating and Hinge on and I'm having to juggle fucking 50+ conversations at a time in both apps, outside of Instagram and my own personal connections outside of this shit.

These women are aggressive about meeting up quick too.

Fuck me, I might turn all this shit off. It's too much, stressing me the hell out

You can replace your photos with photos of me.

That should keep it quiet for the rest of time.
