"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.

I've tried POF, OKCupid and eharmony, basically you get more quality women with the latter two, but even okc kind of sucks, since it's free you still have to compete, but at least if give you a match % and whatnot. I've met girls from okcupid and eharmony, eharm is the way better option if you are willing to fork out some $... I think POF sucks unless you are a very good lookin dude, good physique, etc. but I imagine the quality of women is not good.
 

"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.

ok, experiment over, ive deleted 'her' profile.
Lessons:
99.5% of the messages Ive received have been non descript, meaningless drivel
the 'opposition' I have nothing to fear, I can more than match profiles, opening messages etc.
Pics, this is the key, you need a good pic of yourself, smiling, social, preferably with a mixed group with a good looking women nearby.
a really good looking guy with such pics will be an instant draw, the pic is the hook.
a lot of the women on dating sites, in this case pof, are cranks, there is more baggage than holiday season at heathrow.
the women tend to have incredibly high expectations and more than average sense of entitlement.
Ultimately, if you want to have any 'success' on such sites, follow the above.
Good luck

You're wasting your time online dating. You won't be able to separate yourself from the pack. Devote your time to more successful areas... like picking-up women in person.
