"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Humorous POF profile that got me results

Last year I met several great looking women on POF. For a little while I experimented with the following profile, and it WORKED. Women were messaging me and I was going on dates and getting laid.

I thought I had posted this on another forum a long time ago, Googled it, and found that some guy on OKCupid copied my profile! Hope he's doing well with it.

The headline was "I cry myself to sleep every night"
My occupation is listed as "Drug Lord"


Here was the text:
I just moved here. I don't have a car, a job, a phone, a steady place to live, or proper hygiene. I'm on parole.


I don't like music, fitness, the outdoors, pets, travel, or much of anything other than drinking. I wear Ed Hardy and Affliction every single day (I love rhinestones).


I'm not sarcastic or funny at all either. So if you're looking for that, I may not be for you.

Basically, I'm just looking for someone to give me a ride around town.
Under the "first date" section it said something like "Casual sex"


What I found so interesting about this profile was that I got messaged/approached more than when I did a "serious" profile.


btw... here is my current profile, in which I retained some of these elements although it is more serious: http://www.plentyoffish.com/viewprofile.aspx?profile_id=27881577, any critique is appreciated. I tried to incorporate good pictures, pre-selection, social value, a sense of indifference, and most importantly HUMOR, and what I have found is that girls are messaging me with ease because they have something to joke about. I have gotten a lot of messages just from the "drug lord" angle alone. And when I get messages like this it is very easy to have a natural, humorous, flowing conversation that leads to an easy # close without EVER going into the boring "interview" questions mode.

I haven't been back on POF very long (just got out of an LTR), but I hope to repeat my results from last year.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Yes, but the humor/sarcasm/indifference makes it much easier for girls to contact me and maintain a fun conversation that doesn't devolve into interview style questions.

It helps.

What the hell is being married by August 2011 all about? You don't want that really? Do you?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I think we've already established that internet dating is homosexual. Mostly ugly, used-up b!tches who don't respond to sh!t. What a complete f-u-c-k-i-n-g waste.

Internet dating probably works best for ugly closeted homosexual men who want to meet other ugly closeted homosexual men behind their wives' backs.

haha that's actually pretty funny. So when a girl messages you, would you try to play it off or admit that it was a joke? For example if a girl says, are you really a drug lord?

The new profile is pretty solid, especially the pics, they're really well picked. I wonder if you could let the pics speak for you and drop some of the lines that are verging into cliche territory, i.e. staying in, going out, culture, travel. The pics already convey that stuff pretty well. You could putz those lines off and amp up the schtick instead, which you're great at.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

It was kind of a test for me of a girl's sense of humor and wit. I had conversations about it with girls where we would joke about it, and I would maintain that I was, but they just went along with it and had fun. It is important for me to have a girl that can be silly and gets my sarcastic humor.

Conversations like that kept things light, funny, and away from boring crap like "So how long have you lived here?" It also helps you stay more mysterious.

The other line that got me a lot of play was the one about basically just looking for a ride around town.

I am not denying that the pictures aren't good; I'm saying that having a little bit of silliness makes it much easier for an interested women to contact you... and showing indifference is always good as well. So I try to mix the two.



Wilko,

Probably a good idea that I will visit later. Sometimes less is more.

While that line may be gold I doubt it for a blackguy like my self it would work as well considering that most ignorant folks already believe the stereotype that all black men are paroles
