"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

does anyone use match.com?

would you say the quality of women is better than the ones on pof because you have to pay for a subscription or the fact they're internet dating in general equals low quality?

I'm sure I read about match.com making fake profiles to generate interest.

POF/OKC are fine. Snog.com is interesting too, lots of replies, just make sure you filter out the illegally young!!

I live in a large metro area where there are plenty of women to date but it doesn't make it any easier finding one for long term success!

I used both sites extensively for a few years. I've found good and bad on both of them. But in general I think match had a little higher quality that brought more to the table as far as looks, class, and careers go.

I encountered a little more flakey behavior on pof. I think because it is free, you have girls that are there for attention whoring, not dating which results in more flakeyness.

And yes I've seen those fake profiles on match. They have also been involved in a few court cases over things along those lines.

As I get older, I just don't have the energy to do what it takes to be successful with online dating like I did at one point. I don't care to sort thru all the trash and there is a ton of it on those dating sites.

Put up good pics, have a profile that stands out from the crowd, and send out a ton of messages that are designed to illicit a response like nobody elses. Do all this and you will snag a few.

Regardless of the site, I just don't think online dating is the answer. Its a notch or two better than scoring girls at bars.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

A winner is you! :up:

Most of my online dating "success" actually came from matchmaker. Last I checked, I had over 250 interests. Too bad they charge you to read mail, so I never got to talk to any of them, or see anything beyond the headline they put in the mail. Some nice looking girls, though. The "hot" ones ALWAYS want to go to a bar, party, hang out, or anything involving alcohol, sex, and no accountability. I wish they werent all the spawn of Satan.

To not contact them was probably God saving me from evil. Bwahahaha! :nono:
