Is there something I am missing?

Well... welcome to media buying. It's a road of loosing money until you get it right, then you'll make money and have to work every day at optimizing or you start loosing money again.
You bid in a system of real time bids, so other buyers bid as well. They bid on things such as GEO (country), type, device, browser, OS, niche and every single parameter they can to optimize.
If you just blanket bid on all GEOs with a CPM price you will get more traffic that if you bid on say UK MAC traffic. But you also get crappy countries like India that is worth maybe 0.4 CPM tops.
That was the super short version. Please pause your campaign, go google media buying. Read for a few days straight. Then go back and create a new campaign. You also need to test multiple sources, you can find a list of adult traffic brokers here:
