Is MySpace balls?

[Hitman10000]

I've made a dozen posts rejecting online social networks and what you said about women can be said the same for yourself and other men.

Most of the girls I've dated recently have been off of there, but I'm starting to wonder if MySpace is just evidence of a growing state of social dysfunction...meaning the people you find on there (no matter how many of them there are) aren't the type of people you'd want to spend quality time with.

Anyone else find that to be the case? I don't meet a lot of women through my normal routines. (I do "guy stuff"...working out, riding motorcycles, etc) So I've been supplementing with Myspace, but it seems like most of the women there have attachment issues, social stigma, just some kind of dysfunction or other.

I'm seriously considering disconnecting.

===

Hey, I think true friends are the kind who brighten a smile as you do for me whenever I simply check in with you Steve

===

that isn't even 1/10th of the messages, and i pretty much random sampled them from the inbox.

if it wasn't so funny it would be sad. or is that the other way around?

you might be thinking, as i did, that hmmmm...i'm a DJ, i could totally out game these chumps, this is actually a good thing! i will stand out like a shining beacon amongst the garbage!

nope. i'm afraid that you will be just another a-hole, loser, dipsh!t, like all the others. if not those, then a liar.

yeah you can still pick up chicks on myspace, as i mentioned waaaaay back, the best way is to reply to their bulletins with your witty comment. but that has faded due to the incredible amount of bulletin spam.

but after reading those msgs, do you get the feeling that you're throwing yourself into the dumpster that is her inbox...??? that men are nothing but cheap entertainment, moreso than ever?

i do.

 

[squirrels]

Yup. I get what you're saying...

Truth is, MySpace and other such sites are a void. They act like a social network, but you have very little chance to demonstrate value. In real life, just your presence, the way you carry yourself, or your behavior can catch someone's attention, not to mention your appearance. But on MySpace, you're just a name and a picture in a sea of names and pictures. And as soon as you send that E-mail, you're just "another dude hitting on me".

Yet I've had some significant success meeting up with women who came after ME first. But they've all had some fatal flaw, usually in their attitude toward "relationships", which they took far too seriously. A certain kind of neediness...which if I stayed with them too long, I found to be contagious/infectious. Almost as Hitman was saying.

I'm not sure it's that much different from 99% of people in "real life". I dunno...lately I've been forced to re-examine a lot of the things I think about life in general and people in particular. I'm starting to wonder if almost all of us are a little bit neurotic in some way or other, are socially crippled due to the installment of limiting beliefs and insecurities.

 

[TooColdUlrick]

i used to think that Myspace attracted losers, hence the high proportion of them on the site, men and women alike.

but now i am back to my standard theory...90% of the adult population is undateable. that's giving the benefit of the doubt too, which i always try to do. sadly, Myspace is reality.

but man...put yourself in the myspace chicks position. with all those msgs like that, most of whom seem to have a 6th grade education, how could that NOT corrupt her about men?


--

i just read your tito ortiz line. i remember him saying that on the TV show where that chump boy gave up his chances for glory, and the resulting unlimited pvssy flow, because his chick of 6 months thought he was cheating on her, and wanted him to come home like the lap dog he ended up being. tito said it perfectly, and in the right tone, and context. absolutely perfect. that was sad.

 

[squirrels]

I dunno why people chase relationships. Relationships should just happen with people you enjoy being around. To look for "a relationship" is just stupid. Look for a person you can stand being around...let the relationship take care of itself.

If that guy's girl couldn't trust him enough to let him chase his dreams for a few weeks (I mean, come on, he's stuck in that house, he isnt' even ALLOWED to see women!), then he shouldn't be with her.

Exactly, they always come along when you least expect it.

Bang on Squirrels.

I feel like shooting the leg-humping, nutless AFC population (90% of men). And we wonder why any half-decent-looking female has a head the size of Epcot Center and treats us all like shyt? Well, when you get your ego pumped up like a rockstar by hordes of dikless "men" 24-7...who wouldn't???

ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC!!!!!!

 

[belividere]

Myspace is balls. It's about as entertaining as gonorrhea. I have an account, and a facebook account which I check maybe once or twice a year. I'm constantly getting emails from ex's trying to be "friends", and I know these girls are currently balls deep in their new boyfriends. Man do I hate these social networking sites.


Sure its true that the same women that you meet at bars most likely have myspace pages, it doesn't mean that they are on myspace picking up guys. I dont really buy that argument.

 

[d9930380]

The guy's post of the myspace transcipt exactly proves my point. How many times was "your hot" mentioned. We are living in a ssuperficial Paris Hilton society. It's completely a joke.

If you don't look like Brad Pitt then the real world is a better hunting ground, there you can display other qualities.

 

[Mindtrust]

I try to look on the postitves about myspace...

The fact you can get a decent women to hook up with you by sitting in your chair at home is pretty appealing to me...

Obviously, not all are going to be your type once you meet up, but its all training and practice..

Myspace through the week, hook up on a weekend.. Aswell as play your normal game when your out picking up women..

Works well for me.

ive never been on myspace. ill never go on myspace. i think myspace and all these other social network sites are bullsh*t.

i wasted enough time in my life when i was younger on IRC.

the only place i 'waste' time electronically socializing is on here.

people who are wasting their time 'hanging out' in cyberspace are all the same because they are people who aren't developing their REAL lives the way they should.

so its no surprise that they all have the same flaws.

Well said, all of you! I have checked out myspace, and assuming you don't get a virus from their pop-up ads, I have a few 'adds' where the gal has barely more than lingerie on as her set of pics! Some of them might as well and probably are call-girls.

Another site that's even worse is facebook. It connects your so-called friends. But ask yourself this: will these class-mate friends ever hook you up with any of their friends? If you had a choice of hooking up with these old friends? I would answer no to both. On top of that, everyone appears to be really cool, hot, and have a great life. I think it's all fake and can really play on one's insecurities. The only void that site fills is your own, by wasting your time! Face to face IMO will also matter the most. Getting out to the real world is what it takes. I would dismiss these sites almost entirely except for using it to flirt and to practice DJ skills.

Agreed.

I think Facebook was design for chicks so they will have easier chance to hook up and feel like a celebrity who gets attention. Chicks don't sarge but they always keep male friends around in order to give her attention or potential future hookups (even with her being with a current boyfriend). The only trick was to get her male friends some attention otherwise they will leave and her pool of men will start shrinking. Enter Facebook where now your average chick can keep over 200 male contact's within her city area and can still keep them around and interested by just sending them a message on facebook from time to time. Facebook and Myspace will help with faster hookups but will continue to ruin interpersonal interactions and relationships.

Hey TooColdUlrick,

Please post more responses from the fake myspace girl account,

I was laughing almost crying reading the inbox messages...


Damn some good thoughts on the subject

really opened my eyes abit,got me thinking.
And no never used myspace or facebook.

I agree that social skills are dissappearing.
Humans becoming robots I say, like that f'in kid saying "el oh el"

MySpace will kill your game IF...

MySpace is a great way to meet women, but that is only IF you have roughly about a handful of women on there leaving "expressions of interest" comments on your page. Otherwise having a MySpace page that lacks that, will only KILL your game, because women will think you suck with and don't get women. You won't be seen as a prize. That's why those who don't have women leaving them "expressions of interest" comments on their MySpace, shouldn't be on it.
