I've recently changed up my profile A LOT, because I realised I had a lot of unnecessary stuff on there - stuff that was basically me showing off to myself more than anything else, and I guess wasn't that appealing to HBs.
I had a lot of intellectual quotes, reams of artists that I liked, etc. I cut out a lot of extraneous information, and my profile is all the better for it - plus I'm getting better reactions from HBs with it.
So some stuff I've discovered with my recent Facebook gaming:
1. I'm kind of against cold approaching using online networking sites like Facebook/Myspace. Even if you have a rock solid opener, it will only open a small amount of the time, and it's impossible to gauge attraction and body language properly online. Unless you can build enough comfort on there in order to go straight for a real life meeting. I know some guys are great at this, but I haven't found the right formula yet.
2. Using Facebook as a gaming tool with HBs you've ALREADY MET is the key here. I'll make ****y/funny comments on their photos or walls and generally take it very non-serious. Also, if you do respond to a comment or message from a girl, make sure you leave a bit of time between her response and yours - I'd recommend at least a day, for obvious reasons.
One time I was OUTRAGEOUS with Facebook and basically searched for a girl on there who I'd met at a party but hadn't number closed. Yeah, I know, it sounds a little weird, but we had hit off on a real connection at the party and I was pretty sure I would have got the number close anyway, but events conspired to make that impossible.
So I messaged her on Facebook and just asked for a Day2 right away. It worked, and I got the f-close a couple of meetings later.
So Facebook can work as a closing tool, as long as you use it right. Asking for a Day2 on a girl you're NEVER MET will probably not go down too well, unless you've somehow built huge amounts of attraction online.
3. This goes without saying really, but MAKE SURE YOUR PROFILE MAKES YOU LOOK GOOD.
4. Applications like "Are You Interested?" can be quite fun, but have mostly been dead-ends for me. If anything, they're good tools to use to gauge which profile pictures of yours get the best responses. I know David DeAngelo used to do this kind of thing.
So, yeah, I wanted to resurrect this thread to comment on some online stuff I'm up to.
Remember the golden rule of Facebook/Myspace sarging: Online networking sarging should be an ADDITION to your real life sarging NOT an excuse to forego real life interactions.
Cheers guys,
