Sorry to hear it man. I gave up online a long time ago and stick to in person.

More to lose, but it's so much better.

It's life. I'm probably gonna take a break from it and focus on uni and writing (and work I suppose)

Try not to let it stop you. I guess my mantra is "never give up", but sometimes a break does help.

How do you find people to date in person?

Go out on the weekends to bars pretty much. Or under very unique and rare circumstances, in your day to day life.

You need to be the kind of person who can smile and say "hey, no worries, have a great day/night" to being rejected. It hurts a bit in the beginning but then it's ok.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
