"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Your font is too dark to read over a dark picture.

Pick one. Too many people on myspace don't care at all about what things clash and contrast.

The idea behind myspace is decent. Just so few pages are made well. It's like the modern geocities. Plus they're all so generic. It's all the same thing on each page, some survey, some pictures, blah blah blah. Then I really hate the fact that peoples songs auto play. I wish that I could turn that crap off. I don't want to hear whatever yellow card or taking back sunday song is popular this week. If I want to listen to your music it should be an option.

I'm not trying to bash yours specifically, it's myspace as a whole.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Really nice job, oakraiderz2.

I'm not a big Myspacer so I can't really compare to others....but to comment on 'presentation' in general, for whatever purpose it serves - its interesting how everyone has their own individual style and preference.

I naturally like details, and for diagrams, posters or publications etc, my boss used to jump on me for it. His theory : the eye will only look for, and pick out 3-4 major points or concepts - and the mind will ignore and forget the rest. He has consequently trained the detail out of me.

To expand on Vincent's initial comment (you're up against some tough peer review here, ha ha...but its all good)....I like the font size and style, and I wonder if changing the font colour to white or silver (or fading the background) would help out the attention deficit, half burnt out, old people with bad eyes - like me? That would be my version of an as* kicking smoke show.

Anyways, haven't checked out everything yet, but it looks like you've put some really good work into this, and I would be dern proud too. :up:
