For the people who you've gone on a first meet with, what approximate percentage:

I'd say my stats:
Not attracted: 20%
Ok for second: 75%
Wow/But Not Mutual: 0%
Mutual: 40%
Top 5 reasons for not attracted:
1. Personality doesn't match what she wrote on the profile
2. Ex issues (still in court, battling, negative)
3. No time to date
4. Not enough stuff in common
5. Different values - which only came out during meet
I'd say there were zero people that I didn't find attractive purely based upon looks. With the exception of one person everyone had pictures that matched their appearance - so pre-screening based on the photo was generally accurate for me.
As a guy I will not followup unless I sense that their is some interest on the part of the other person. I've misread interest at least three times because long after the meet I've received followups from at least 3 people - two asking me for dates (whoops - that's a 33% failure rate!!). So my mutual % is probably less accurate.
