I have been hang slow results on POF, I checked the feature where its says read and several of my messages that i sent have been deleted. I've tried snark alecky responses that somewhat work for me in real ice, but for some reason it rarely in the initial message. could this be more of a profile problem or should i be playing the get to know you card for better results on pof?
"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.

"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.

No harm in getting to know a woman on POF. They like it, try to have edge in your conversations though & I would say 8 messages from you to her is enough.
Read up Naughty Ninjas posts on this forum. His posts about POF helped me a lot.
Sometimes I just open with "Hi Sarah
whats up?" then I add a made up story i.e Am working with two Scottish blokes & one of them keeps SHOUTING at me. I cannot understand one word either of them are saying.
Another tip is mention something in her profile or pics.

hey boss, it might not be anything wrong you're doing at all, free dating sites have a ton of fake profiles to appear to have more women on the site, more guys sign up for those sites than girls, they need to appear to have more women so guys keep using the site so they make money off of it.
was looking at another site where guys got scammed by upgrading their accounts for nothing, the site would send them a lot of "likes" or "someone wants to meet you", in order to see them, get more exposure, or to see if the message was read they told them to upgrade, so they did, when they did the girls who liked them and wanted to meet them never replied to their messages, the accounts were deleted, then new ones sent more, the same thing happened, they were scammed.
if you're getting some good looking women who write you back, then you are doing good, if not then you need to change things up.
most guys try to be too ****y & funny, that gets old when chicks are getting 100's of the same type of messages, some girls like that and some don't, read the profile to see what kind of personality she has, if she is sarcastic then it wil work, if not then you have to go with a normal greeting commenting on one of her pics, not every chick is the same, so dont write the same to each one.

POF is dead right now man. Not sure why, summer it's usually poppin'. And I send out thousands of messages. I don't give a sh8t if the chicks read 'em or not. Cut and paste motherf*cker, move on to the next profile. You should send so many that the faces of the women are a blur and you can't remember one of them.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
